Lois Moran, the wistful heroine of “Stella Dallas,” gives an inspired performance as the modern daughter, who braves the dangers and temptations of Broad- way night life in pursuit of a dancing career. Noah Beery, as the old-fashioned father, whose zealous reform efforts drive his daughter from home, scores a dis tinct personal triumph in a very difficult role. Louise Dresser, the third f®atured member, brings both sincerity and convincingness to her part of a society woman with a past. Helen Jerome Eddy, Allan Simpson, Florence Turner and Charles Lane are among toe sup- porting players who acquit them- selves. with distinction, & EI=SPLEN!)IIJ COMEDY | | NOW AT PALACE | G Leon Errol's ramous collapsible legs, the legs whose wobbling gent thousands into convulsions when the comedign appeared here n “Sally” is back again at the l-ce in“A Lunatic at Large” and the audiences yelterdly after- noon and last night a{rce that the production is about ome of the funniest farces perhaps ever shown on the screen here. “The plot unfplds the adventures of a hobo who Is tricked into an insane asylum in the place of a demented millionaire.

Mr. Cadman is too well known| to music lovers to need very much of an introduction to Juneau resi-| dents and his compositions played and sung everywh is one tribute paid to him “How glorious it is,” wrote the New York Musical Courier, “that Charles Wakefield Cadman re- ceives honor and nitien for his works while he still alive.” Perhaps he i3 one of the most outstanding ‘examples of what can be done for music in Ameri- ca. People everywhere have done homage to his genius as a com- poser and in return he'is giving of his best to be always abreast of the times and awake to opportunities which dally present themselves. ‘Some of tha2 outstanding events of his career this season are: he was chosen to direct the en- tire pageant “Rosario” at Port- land, Oregon. He wrote all of the music for' the Pageant in Denver, Colorado, celebrating the opening of the Moffit Tunnel. That his opera “Sharewis,” which was presented in the Holly- wood Bowl for two performances, was witnessed by 41,000 people, and that his newest opera, “Al Witch of Salem,” was given by the Chicago C Grand Opera Company in 1926. In addition to the suc s of his works, Mr. Cadman has been honored by the University of Southern California, who con- frered the Degree of Doctor of Music upon him. The Wolcot! College of Music of Denver, Colo- rado, conferred a similar honor ia 19 t his concert here, Mr. Cad man will play his own comp tions and then make an inte ing explanation which in itself shouid be a positive tr LESLIE WHITE IS BIG HIT AT PALACE Leslie White ple: audiences at the P imyhis first public appearance in Juneau in over a year. He gave “Trees” and “The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi,” two of the big selec- tions that are now being sung nightly from all radio broadcast- ing stations. Mr. White sprung the way it is being done in the States, singing through the mega- ‘phorfe, and this proved as big a hit as his splendid rendition of the two selections in his rich tenor voice did. He was given fine applause and required to take an encore. Mae Pauly's orches- tra furnished the accompaniment.

June 25--Wit: the election of General Alvarc Obregon as president a foregone conclusion, the only issu ed in the general clections Mexico on Sunday, July 1, are thc personal political ambitions rival candidates in congre gubernatorial and state le: races. : Most of the candidates for all offices are Obregon supporters, so that it is accepted that Obregon partisans will. dominate both the congress and the statc governments., In fact, they al ready do. With Obregon the only presi- dential candidate, the voting is expected to be light. Not much public interest is shown. Four years ago, when President Calles was elected, about 1,500,000 ‘votes were announced to have been cast, Calles being credited with 1,200,000. The population of Mex- ico is estimated at about 15, 000,000, General Obregon has been at his home near Cajeme, Sonora, for some weeks and is expected to remain there until after elec- tions. He will probably return to Mexico City, travel some about the republic and maybe make a trip to the United States and Eu- rope ‘before his’ inauguration on December 1. i Women Invade Clubs, Londoners’ Stroullolds LONDON, June 25— Women have invaded the last stronghold of the misogynist ‘male—the Lon- don club.
