CAPITOL THEATRE
CONCERT SEASON
OPENS WITH SILVA,
FAMOUS CELLIST
j Juneau’s concert season opens
officially Thursday night with the
first of the "Alaska Music Trails”
[concerts sponsored by the Juneau
■ Douglas Concert Association.
Featured will be the world-famed
Italian ’cellist Luigi Silva, whose
sensitive artistry and two hundred
fifty six year old Guarnerius cello
; combine to bring the best In music
to his grateful listeners.
Richard Hayes, Seattle Times
dramatic critic, had this to say
■ about Signor Silva’s recent per
formance at the Metropolitan:
". . .E'lva’s technique has no lim
its. It is breathtaking in its sweep
,and his control of the instrument
1 is absolute. He achieves a powerful
tone or spins a gossamer web of
1 evanescent color at will and the
j emotional quality of his interpre
tation is never over-dramatized.”
Maxim Schapiro, famed pianist,
| through whose efforts "Alaska Mus.
; ic Trails came into being, arrived
i in Juneau Monday and attended
' the meeting of the Juneau Douglas
Concert Association Tuesday night
: at the Council chambers.
Schapiro reported that initial “Al
i aska Music Trails” concerts in An
chorage and Fairbanks played to
j capacity houses.
Mrs. John McCormick, chairman
of the membership committee of
the Juneau-Douglas Concert As
sociation, said tickets are still av
I ailable through members of her
I committee, Alaska Music Supply,
i Ernest Ehler at the Baranof Hotel
j and the 20th Century Theatre box
! office. Season tickets may be had,
1 as well as those for individual per
formances. A special rate is in ef
fect for season memberships for
students.
Following the meeting it was re

DOUBLE BILL IS AT!
CAPITOL TONIGHT;
MUSIC, MELODRAMA
—
A double bill of excitement comes j
to the Capitol Theatre tonight for j
one performance only.
The two pictures are “Home in
San Antone,” and Warner Baxter
in 'The Crime Doctor’s Diary.”
Both are Columbia pictures and
both are underwritten as good en
tertainment.
"Home in San Antone” brings to !
the screen Roy Acuff and his Smoky
Mountain Boys. The picture makes
entertaining use of a variation of
the radio giveaway idea, with a
#100.000 jackpot prize. Acuff and his
aggregation pose as itinerant musi
cians who are helped by a young
Texas hotelman with troubles of his i
own. There are girls and melodrama i
and music in the picture . . . seven
song hits, to tell the truth.
Warner Baxter who plays in the j
Columbia mystery, “The Crime Doc- j
tor’s Diary,” has supporting him j
Stephen Dunne, Lois Maxwxell and j
Aciele Jergens. The story is a drama I
of murder, set to music. The un- !
usual setting is, in actuality, a Los j
Angeles juke-box outfit which has j
direct telephone connections to j
numerous cafes and restaurants lo- j
cated around town. When murder
come., into the story, Warner Bax- j
ter as the Crime Doctor, uses the ;
equipment of the establishment in j
his solution of the crime.
Coming to the Capitol tomorrow j
wiU be Yvonne DeCarlo in “The Gal |
Who Took the West,” a Techni- j
color feature.
