JOHN WAYNE IS
CAPITOL THEATRE
STAR IN WESTERN
John Wayne is one of those rare
specimens—a Western actor who
can really act with the best of Hol
lywood's vaunted talent, and he is
the star of Capitol Theatre's fea
ture "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon”
playing for the last time tonight.
Wayne’s solid dramatic talent
was first hailed when Director John
Ford picked him for the leading
role in his memorable “Stagecoach.”
Since then the six-foot-three-inch
husky from Wintcrset, Iowa, has
regularly stepped out of chaps-and
sombrero parts to essay other kinds
of heroes, as he did in “Reap the
Wild Wind” and “Tycoon'' and
“The Long Voyage Home" and
“Without Reservations,” and won
high praise from the critics for his
excellent portrayals.
He scored heavily as an Army
officer in Ford's “Fort Apache,”
which is probably why the director
chose him again to head the cast
of his latest Argosy production for
RK<$ Radio, “She Wore a Yellow
Ribbon.” Photographed in Tech
nicolor against the same scenic
background as the previous pic
ture, the new film offers Wayne
the most dramatic part of hi.: car
eer—that of an elderly cavalry
captain, about to be retired just
when his vast experienece in Indian
fighting is most desperately needed
by his outnumbered command.
The critics have hailed the pic
ture as a masterpiece and Wayne's
performance as one of the year’s
finest.

HUNGRY WATCHMAN
IS BROUGHT HERE BY
C. G. CUTTER STORIS
Wally Pearson, winter watchman
at the Hidden Falls sawmill on the
east side of Baranof Island, ar
rived here yesterday morning
aboard the U. S. Coast Guard cutter
Storis. He had run out of grub
! about ten days ago when planes
were unable to land there with
provisions for him.
Several radio operators inter

Jack Allman of Excursion Inlet in
which Pearson told of his plight,
including the fact that he only
had a half-gallon of gasoline to
run a generator for his radio set.
He reported that he had tried fish
■ ing with no luck.
The Storis left Juneau Sunday
morning, picked up Pearson and
brought him here, a bit hungry but
otherwise okay.

! HANFORD ON TOUR,
SE ALASKA TOWNS,
INTEREST OF O.P.S.
In order to acquaint retail mer
chants with the workings of the
new price-control regulations, Fred
G. Hanford, acting director of the
Office of Price Stabilization for
Alaska, has left on a short tour
of Southeast Alaska towns.
Hanford will address chambers of
commerce in Ketchikan, Wrangell
and Petersburg. He will explain the
general aim of the price-control
law and outline the steps necessary
for each retail merchant to make
in order to comply with the law.
With the Juneau staff rapidly
being organizesd, plans are being
made to establish branch OPS of
fices in Ketchikan, Anchorage and
Fairbanks.
Hanford, w'ho recently returned
| from a meeting of OPS officials in
Washington, D.C., expressed opti
mism on the success of the program.
“Although we haven’t gotten our
program under way, the reports
from the states are very encourag
ing,” Hanford said. “Merchants and
consumers alike realize what a dis
aster a run-away inflation would
■ be and are accepting price-control
j as a ‘must.’ We want people to
realize we do not intend to put
anybody out of business, and at the
same time we want to protect the
buying public during this emerg
ency. The price-control law, as
now written, will protect both the
merchant and the consumer.”

"DESTINATION
MOON", STRANGE
STORY, TWENTIETH
The theme and concept of George
Pal’s Technicolor production, "Des
tination Moon," might be described
as "out of this world," but it is a
practical down-to-earth plot that
serves as the background to the film
which opened Sunday at the
Twentieth Century Theatre and
will continue through Wednesday.
In the saga of space exploration,
both American industry and gov
ernment face the obvious fact that
there is no way to ward off an at
tack from outer space. They also
earn that they ore not the on y
one looking toward the moon. They
know too that because of the earth.
gravity pull, which is six times
greater than the moon's, a military
power on the moon would easily de
feat any earthbound fortress.
"Destination Moon." which was
directed by Irving Pichel for pro
ducer Pal, tells the thrilling story
of man’s first steps outward into
space beyond our world. Four men
take off in the 150 foot spaceship
and 46 hours later land hazardous
ly, but successfully, on the surface
of the moon. Their experiences on
the way, their exciting tours about
the moon and their final return to
:arth, is reported to offer fans one
of the greatest of thrills.
