E. J.T(Jhnson introduced a measure in |the House to reopen the Ketehikan i hatchery plant and resume opera- |tions there. & | The measure carries an appro- priation clause asking for $20,000. | The plant has been idle for Several| years as has the other hatchery on Eyak Lake near Cordova. Recalls Paul Fight Territorial fish hatchery opera- ion was suspended largely @s the {result of a fight of several, years' led by W. L. Paul, who w; omi- | nated on the so-called Paul*ticket! in the Republican primary last| spring and supported by his organ- |ization in the November election. jResumption of the Ketchikan plant |operation was a plank in that tic- |ket's platform last fall. i The fight against hatcheries was !cne of the most bitter in a in irecent history.

Sunrise,” which opened at the Capitol theatre yes- terday, and which will have its| last showings tonight, is a war- time comedy, a fun-making tri- umph for Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey, featured comedians. Cast as two American doughboys, they go AW.O.L. in Paris. The only reason the Eiffel Tower re-| mains standing is that they do not! get within range of it. They steal their Colonels automobile, his daughter and his best French| sweetheart. The story, irresponsible and fun-| ny, holds its tempo without inter- ruption while the laughs come from hilarious situations and clever dia logue. | The climax, wherein the bdys| emerge as heroes, is a riot of laugh-| ter. The cast includes Hugh Trevor, Dorothy Lee, Roberta Robinson,| Edna May Oliver, Leni Stengel,| George MacFarlane and John Rutherford. The music by Harry Tierney and lyrics by Anne Caldwell, are dis- tinet song hits, introduced in clever and logical fashion. Wheeler and Miss Lee sing two |0. Elstad, Petersburg; “Whistling the Blues ' and “Kiss Me, Cherie"| while Woolsey and Miss Stengel have a side-splitting number in| “Nothing but Love.” | The added feature attraction isl “The Real McCoy,” starring Char-| ley Chase. “The Real McCoy” is two reels! of fun among the hill-billies, with | Chase dressed in a Daniel Boone costume trying to act like a moun- taineer. Thelma Todd is the girl, and Edgar Kennedy plays the role| of a traffic cop who has chased Charley into the mountains to give | him a tag. Warren Doane directed. PETERSBURG EDITOR | IS JUNEAU VISITOR| A. O. Elstad, owner and editor of | the Petersburg Press, is in Juneau for a few days on business. He| looks forward to a prosperous sum- mer in Petersburg.

The latter avowed frankly he was going to support Mr. Ziegler’s motion and hoped 1t would prevail, Foster Suggests Johnson Mr. Foster, opposing Boyle for Chairman, moved to substitute the name of J. E. Johnson. This was defeated by nine to seven. Mr. Fos- ter then nominated Representative Cal Brosius, Seward, for the place. ‘This was lost by an eight to eight tie. Mr. Ziegler’s original motion was then voted on and Mr. Boyle elected by a vote of 10 to 6. After a three-minute recess, dur- ing which the Committee on Com- mittees readjusted its slate, the House then adopted the report which changed Mr. Donnelly for Mr. Boyle as Chairman of the Committee on Election, Election Laws and Mileage, and left the lat- ter as a member of that commit- tee, and Mr. Donnelly retained his membership on the Fisheries Com- mittee, There were no other changes from the list of committees as re- ported in The Empire last week.
