PAGE FOUR. COWBOY BUCK JONES 1 PUGILIST IN. “WINNER TE AL” AT AMER if you want to gee a. virile, veleanic, dynamic drama of western manhood and eastern temptations, Buck Jones is there in “Winner Take All,” at the America Sunday. Buck made his local bew as a prize fighter last night, and pleased a large audience. And the women were as pepped full of enthusiasm ag the male fight fans. They couldn't help it. This newest William Fox attrac. tion starring the popular cowboy is al} action; prize-fig! spenders, parties, and f: the last word in luxury blended with the grim realism of the prize-ring. This critic won't give away the crackerjack of a story from the trained typewriter of the w. k, Bat urday Evening Post writer, Larry Evans. But it gives Buck Jones the greatest scope of his career for dis- playing old and new talents. ° ae GLORIA SWANSON IDEAL MOTHER IN “HER LOVE STORY” NOW AT RIALTO In her new Paramount picture, “Her Love Story,” which is sched- uled for showing at the Rialto today Gloria Swansen proves the truth of that cld adage: “Love makes th world go around.” Of course, th are all kinds of love, but it is fe to assume that the man or woman who first uttered those words of wis- dom had in mind mother-loye. Be- cause mother-love is the only real, pure, genuine, unselfish love that will stand every acid test. “Her Love Story’ was adapted from Mary Roberts Rinehart's story Her Majesty, the Queen.” Mrs. Rinehart, besides being one of the greatest of living novelists, has born and raised five sons, so that when she writes of mother-love, it is from the angle of a woman who is thor- oughtly familiar with her subject. We suggest every mother see this picture! Sure, take Dad and the kid- dies- The: Joy It too! HOOT GIBSON 15 BABE RUTH IN TAIS PICTURE Hoot Gibson, actor, and Edward Sedgwick, director, constitute a combination that is a guarantee of good entertainment and satisfying quota of laughs when thelr names appear in conjunction on a acreen play. This combination’s most recent appearance is in the Iris theater where “Hit and Run," Universal- Gibson Special .production opened yesterday. As ts that case with a number of the Gibson-Sedgwick teams contribution to the gayety of the world, Sedgwick. wrote the| story assisted b: ymond Schrock, of Univ ‘a aceyarlo ¢ partment, and, as the tille indicates, | it is a baseball story. In his early days Sedgwick was a professional ball player, and as the story is unfolded it probably will occur to old-time fans that the director-writer may have taken a leaf from the be of e, Mike Donlin, who has a part in the play and who was one of the hitting marvels of the basebull world not so many years ago. Now, in the pieture play Hoot shows little knowledge. of biseball as an art, but he ts, a demon with the stick and by reason of this strange skill, is lifted from isolated fame of the Cactus league to the big time circuit, where he Electric Supply & Construction Co, Anything in the Electrical Line SEE 142 E.

So rything was one color, and we might just as, well have been flying in total dark- ness. The only contrast was a nat- row strip along the beach where the waves kept washing up and melting the snow. We all dropped down arid clung to this Mne until we came to a bay, then we would shoot straight across until we picked up the beach again on the other side. The only time we lost ‘the shore line was when we would sud- denly jump across a bay like at the mouth of Tsivet river. “Twice we passed over villages Dlanketed with snow, but with many of the roofs all caved in—they looked utterly deserted. We learned later that they were abandoned mining towns, ghost cities of the past, sep- ulchers of the hopes of gold crazed adventurers who came to Alaska from the four corners of the globe back in the days of the gold rush to Dawsan,.Fairbanks and None. As we passed over one of those’ desert- d towns I recall thinking that if we cracked up, it wouldn't be a bad place because wa would at least find shelter from the blizzard. “Had there been a cliff or promin- tory jutting out into the sea along that shoreline, the chances are that all four planes would have crashed diong into it. We couldn't ha: seen far enough ahead to have avoided it, and we were flying too low to have gone over it. But luck- diy the coast Was straight and the beach clear. ‘Sometimes we flew so low that our pontoons dragged on the water. Occasionally we would pass over boats half buried in the sand, aor over piles of logs washed up by the sea, and I kept wondering if we would hit them.

I didn’t dare sit down because if I did I couldn't see the beach. “Every few minutes I change ‘goggles because the snow driving against my face melted, trickled down behind them ahd blurred the lenses, Jack, of course, was as intently on the lookout from had to and thep getting off “At a45 that noon we flew around Cape Jupken over 2 few appr open seg and up Resyrrec- don S t of the most beautiful ford Beret) America, if got in the eerie, unlipkily, was to be th last time that We were to enter a port in company Wh our command: ep and the flagship -% le,’ for it was gn the nezt down the Alaakan lg thet Martin and (To ° on the at | Supreme Danger to the.rear cockpit as I was.
