Miss La Plante assumed the black-face make-up in the final se- quence of the picture as a disguise to enable her to put over a song “The picture as a whole I like as well as anything I have ever done if not better. Bill Seiter directed me in several other pictures which Of course, the other directors I have had were fine, too, but Bill is so very interested in having my pictures perfect.

"NORMA TALMADGE NOW AT COLISEUM. ¥Norma Talmadge in “The Dove” her first United Artists Picture, is the feature at the Coliseum Theatre based on Willard Mack’s stage play, which ran for a year on Broadway, “The Dave” is a melo- dramatic, romantic tale of Costa Roja, the “red coast.” Miss Tal- madge is supported by Noah Beery and Gilbert Roland. Roland West directed the picture from the scen- {ario by Wallace Smith and Paul Bern. “The Dove” is the colorful, quick- action narrative of a virtuous dance, hall girl, a courageous young Amer- ican employed in a gambling housei and “the bes’ damn callabero in all Costa Roja,” Don Jose Maria y Sandoval. Against a background fine ladies and grand gentlemen, the characterization of Miss Tal- madge as Dolores, “The Dove,” a beautiful dancer, comes to glowing life, according to reports. Norma Talmadge not only be- comes a United Artists star through “The Dove,” her first picture for that organization, but she is also now one of the eight owner-mem- bers of United Artists.

NAW MAPPERS COMPLETE WORK 'FOR THIS YEAR Navy Alaska Ae Aerial Exped- stion Leaves Ketchikan for San Diego Base The Navy Alaska Aerial Expedi- tion, which was based here most of the summar, has completed its program for the season, and sailed late last week for ‘San Diego, via Seattle, according to word receiv- ed at local headquarters of ‘the United States Forest Service. ! Practically all of the work plan- ned was completed, only a few odds and ends of jobs remaining and these can be looked after if the aerial mapping of the Territory is continued, said Commissioner Charles H. Flory of the Depart- ment of Agriculture. The Gannet and barge and the plenes all departed from Ketchiken Saturday. The barge will be drop- ped at Bremerton and the Gamnet and planes proceed to their head- quarters base at San Diego where the personnel will return to their individual units. “Alaska is way to the good on its mapping p(ogrul_n," Mr. Flory sald today. “No_ other forested area in the, has been so thoroughly and sively mapped as this region.” D‘l_l’- ing the past three months, the Navy fliers used about 40 rolls of film and mapped approximately 12,000 square miles in Southeast= chn Alaska. This brings the total mapped to about 22,000 square mlB the first expedition several years ago having mapped 10,000 squgfl miles. » 8o excellent have been the e~ sults, it is the hope of the Forest Service that another expedlt(fi will be sent to the Territory eithp next season or as early as to carry on the work tI other coastal districts and along the Alaska Peninsula, and later to In- terior Alaska.

And the first dey they played 18 holes to secure the motion picture shots desired. Three succeeding days ended their forced vacation, but they had their fun.
