DAY MATINEE INDAY NIGHT MONDAY NIGHT Filmed where the famous “BIG sereened—It’s a REYNOLDS » PARADEY grmt pruduchon was Also NEELY EDWARDS in COMEDY Palace Orchestra Plays Concert and for Both Shows Lust—’i'im; T(mighti Attractions At Theatres FROM LIONS TO AIRPLANES ) 5 Hiite 1s just one thing after an- other for J. P. McGowan, the di- rector of FBO's “Aflame in the Sky,” playing at the Coliseum to- night. Two months ago while he was directing “Tarzan and the Golden Lion,” for the same company, the director divided his time between consoling Zulus, imported from Af- rica and amusing the Golden Lion,” supposed to have come from the same place. When the picture was over Mc- Gowan breathed a sigh of relief. Then he got his next assignment —and the fun was on again. He is a famous director of thrill pictures and has used every ve- hicle that is known, but ke had never met an aeroplane before. As a lot of the action is taken in the air, McGowan decided that a mo- tion pleture director is morz than worthy+of “his hire. \ L2 =t '| “SURRENDER” AT i | PALACE TONIGHT 53 =4 Mary Philbin, whose rare beauty impressed the world as being almost evanescent, is in reality a most hardy girl. Her starring role in “Surrenger!” which is at the Palace tonight, is a part which no fragile beauty could have stood. Miss Philbin showed a great physical endurance in the most exacting scenes of thi thrilling drama of the early day: of the war. She was stoned by crowds, escaped only through her fleetness of foot and in other ways proved that her slight, and almost spiritual body, contained surpris- ing muscular development. Ivan Mosjukine, the noted Rus- sian star, plays opposite Miss Phil- bin. Edward Sloman directed this pro- duction. “SORREL AND SON” AT I COLISEUM TOMORROW | “Sorrell and Son” at the Coli- seum Sunday, is based on the cur- rent best-selling novel by Warwick Deeping, English author. In thc United States more than 150,000 copies of the $2.50 novel were solc in 1927, Herbert Brenon, director of “Peter Pan” and “Beau Geste, offers “Sorrell and Son” as his first independent production fo: United Artists release. The cast includes H. B. Warner Nils Asther, Norman Trevor, Alict Joyce, Anna Q. Nillson, Mickey McBan, Louis Wolheim and Mary Nolan. Mr. Brenon took members of his company 6,345 miles from Holly- wood to England and in origina’ locales there much of “Sorrell and Son” was filmed. The film “Sorrell and Son” does not differ in subject matter, char- acterization or ending from the book. The author, Warwick Deep- ing, helped Herbert Brenon make the picture. The sets of “Sorrell and Son’ were designed by Willlam Cameror Menzies, who planned the sets fo!

In Vera Reynold’s latest production “ Kate,” -a Paul Sloane production which is at the Palace tomorrow. Nearly a ton of “giant’ powder was used to make kindling wood of a French village—a motior picture background. SURRENDER” “It is one of the biggest jobs I have ever undertaken in my fifteen years as an explosive expert in the picture business,” declares Hoff- man, “Ten cameras recorded the scene which took three days to prepare, insofar as blowing it up was concerned, and which will ap- pear to be a little more than a flash on the screen. We used 2,000 pounds of powder to achieve the spectacular event.” Kenneth Thompson plays oppo- site Miss Reynolds in “Corporal Kate.” Julia Faye also is fq tured and Majel Coleman is a lead- ing member of the supporting cast. SEISMOLOGICAL STATION TO BE GIVEN BUNNELL | Alaska Co"e;—Given Rec- ognition—Information Received Here That there will be a seismologi- | >al station established at the Als- ca Agricultural College and School of Mines in the near future, is the word received yesterday by Dr. C. . Bunnell. 1 wire from Acting Director R. S. Patton of the Coast and Geo- ietic Survey who advises as fol- ows: “Owing to unavoidable delay ‘eismograph will not be ready 'till all but it is hoped to make the nstallation before winter.” Last summer Commander Hekt, f the Coast and Geodetic Survey sisited the College to confer with Or. Bunnell on the subject of es- ablishing a seismological station W& the College. It was decided hat a seismograph could be in- italled in the physics laboratory by jutting in the required concrete siers and enclosing sufficient space ‘or operation now used for labor- itory purposes. It is proposed to ise a Bosch-Omiri instrument and yrovide with it a suitable chronom- ter which will record the time as yiven by the Fairbanks wireless tation. Commander ekt pronounced the ocation ideal and said that it vould be a very important link in he chain of seismological stations n the world. Tt was hoped that he station could be installed this pring. Dr. Bunnell explains that he delay is probably caused by he fact that the laboratories of he Coast and Geodetic Survey are ‘ushed with work and that the vork of building over the seismo- xaph to be usgd was only half lone when he was in Washington n January. Following closely on Director “atton’s wire came a telegram from he World's greatest seismologist, vho is none other than Father Tondorf of Georgetown University. Che wire follows: Dr. Charles E. Bunnell, resident Alaska Agricultural College, Tuneau, via Fairbanks. “Heartiest congratulations to you | n the establishment of seismologi- 'al observatory just announced ere. This promises to be one of he most important stations in the Norld looked for. Francis A. Tondorf.” — e VIAN ELECTROCUTED AT HIRST-CHICHAGOF MINE W. J.
