CAPITOL THEATRE
HAS FUNFEST FOR
SUNDAY, HOLIDAY
ProbaLIy the most unbelievable
song-and-dance team in film history
has been brought together for Uni
versal-International's Technicolor
comedy, “Yes Sir, That’s My Baby,"
which opens Sunday at the Capitol
Theatre for a 3-day run.
The team is comprised of Donald
O’Connor, Charles Coburn and
Gloria De Haven, and the movie
marks the first time Coburn has ever
turned song-and-dance man in his
Hollywood career.
The three get together for a ren
dition of the production’s famous
theme song.
O'Connor and Miss De Haven have
made their mark in the entertain
ment world as singers and dancers,
but this is the first time they ever
have appeared together.
Besides the theme song, the pic
ture also introduces three original
numbers, “They've Never Figured
Out A Woman,” "Men Are Little
Children" and “Just Look At Me.”
Coburn, who admits he is 72 and
has a voice “like an overgrown bull
frog," rehearsed for three weeks for
his singing and dancing act.
“Yes Sir, That’s My Baby,” a re
gular funfest traces the hilarious
adventures of a young couple at
tending college under the GI-Bill,
with O’Connor as a veteran and
Miss De Haven as his wife.

SCHWINN BIKES AT MADSEN’S
MILLAND STARRED
IN THRILLER NOW
AT 20TH CENTURY
Kay Milland, who carried off just
about every acting honor extent as
the tragic dipsomaniac in "The Lost
Weekend,” is now reported to have,
in rhe Big Clock,” an even greater
role in a film as far off the well
beaten Hollywood path as the award
winning classic on alcoholism.
In "The Big Clock,” which arrives
tonight at the Gross 20th Theatre
with Charles Laughton also starred.
Murder, not rum. is the demon
which haunts Milland and involves
him in a man-hunt packed with
suspense that is as unusual and
daringly different as the picture
itself. For “The Big Clock” times
a man’s search for himself—with
death the reward for his success!
In his portrayal of terrified George
Stroud in “The Big Clock,” Stroud,
editor of a detective story magazine,
one publication in a huge magazine
empire ruled iron-handedly by Earl
Janoth (Charles Laughton, is about
to start out on a vacation with his
wife and son.
Suddenly he finds himself embroil
ed in the murder of Pano'th’s blonde
girl friend, and ordered by the ty
ranical magazine magnate, himself
activiely associated with the crime,
to utilize his expert detecting tal
ents to find the victim’s companion
of the evening she was murdered.
MESSAGE FROM
EXECUTIVE OF BOY
SCOUTS, AMERICA
(Continued from Page Two)
two years particularly, and for
many years formerly, in sponsor
ing Boy Scout Troop 613, and
through their auxiliary organiza
tion, the 40 and 8 Society, the
sponsorship of Explorers Post 713.
During this two-year period Troop
613 has been the largest and one
of the most active in Gastlneau
Channel scouting, and Post Offic
ers have been enthusiastic and
generous in their support of the
ent.re Boy Scout program for Al
aska. 8 of the 12 registered mem
bers of Explorer Post 713 were par
ticipants in the 2nd National Jam
boree, held at Valley Forge, Penn
sylvania this summer, and Explore:
Advisor Chester Zenger was one of
the contingent’s leaders.
Item 6—We commend the Sitka
Post No. 13 for their willing spon
sorship of Boy Scout Troop 642,
which has made available the pro
gram of scouting to a group of 12
physically handicapped boys at the
Orthopedic Hospital at Mt. Edge
cumbe. This appears to us to be
a true reflection of the American
Legion ideal of service to others.
As a matter of Interest to the
Department Convention, we add
that a total of 125 Alaska boys are
currently participating in scouting
programs under the sponsorship of
the various Posts of the Depart
ment. This total represented nearly
10% of our total registered mem
bership of 1659 boys at the end of
July. The Boy Scouts of America
wishes to express their apprecia
tion to the American Legion for
their active and interested support
of scouting in Alaska. We are
anxious to continue to merit this
support and cooperation, and we
trust that Legionnaires felt that
the Boy Scout program is con
tributing to their general aims of
Americanism and child welfare.
We would point out that there
continue to be new opportunities
for sponsorship of scouting units
for boys in Aalska. We feel that
our registered membership will
nearly double during the next sev
eral years, and this will require
the organization and leadership of
additional units. We invite an ex
pression of interest in this regard
on the part of the American Legion.
Specifically, it sepms to us that
there will be rather soon oppor
tunities for such sponsorship at
Fairbanks, again at Adak, at Hoo
nah, at Wrangell, and possibly at
other towns also. The whole field
of Explorer Scouting for young men
14 to 18 is practically untouched in
Alaska, with the exception of the
cities of Ketchikan, Juneau and
Fairbanks. There will be new op
portunities in this division of
scouting during the coming months.
Again, it is perfectly in order to
suggest that every American Le
gion Post having a Boy Scout troop
might well consider the establish

course, many other fine organiza-1
tions are sponsoring scout units in
all three divisions, and it is nec
I essary that overlapping of such

' terested Posts may well contact
Organization and Extension Chair
man Kenneth S. Clem of Juneau,
or one of the members of his Com
mittee, or any member of the Al
aska professional staff for further
information. Where the opportun
ity for Post sponsorship of addi
tional Scout units would be im
practical, we suggest that individ
ual Legionnaires participate as
Scoutmasters or Committeemen.
There is always a great need in
this field and many individual
members of Legion Posts are al
ready serving in such capacities.
Again, please accept our sincere
appreciation for the backing which
Alaska scouting is receiving from
the American Legion and our bf“st
wishes for a very successful De
partment Convention. I am only
sorry that my professional respon
sibilities have made it necessary
for me to attend a Conference in
Tacoma this week and thus have
prevented me from attending the
Convention sessions myself.
Very Sincerely yours,
