“ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME” VOL. XLI., NO. 6326 JUNEAU ALASKA FRIDAY APRIL 28 1933, ) THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIR .SECOND SECTION—PAGES 9 to 12 CULT LEADER DISAPPEARS WITH CASH Parted Awam WASHINGTON IS | SCENE OF SHOW AT THE CAPITOL “Merry-Go-Round” Novel- ized for Forceful Motion Picture Presenting a timely subject in a‘ forceful entertaining picture, “Washington Merry-Go-Round” was shown on the screen of the Capitol theatre Thursday, and ‘will be fea- tured again tonight. ‘The title and general theme of the popular book published a year or two ago have been used, but there is no fidelity of detail or sit- uation to the story, except by sug- gestion. The book is obviously one that could be made into € picture only in the manner in which it has been done by the producers Even the addition of a romance, with Constance Cummings playing the part of a Senator's grand- daughter, in love with Lee Tracy, in the role of a crusading Repre- sentative bent upon cleaning up Washington politics, is pleasing. Pictorially the interest of the film is heightened by authentic-appear- ing scenes of the House in session and by excellent shots of Wash- ington scenery. In the cast in addition to Lee Tracy and Miss Cummings are Al- an Dinehart, Walter Connolly and a good supporting cast. Unusual merit should be accorded the prin- cipal players for the work in “Washington Merry-Go-Round.” For the second time the romance of Rudy Vallee and his brunette wife has come to an end. They say it's “final” this time. Mrs. Vallee will return to her native California and Rudy will continue in the crooning business in New York lAuoclated Pren Phot» MATSUOKA IS —elplp Cover inlaid linoleum with a thin coat of wax, let it remain for 5 hours and then polish with a soft HuMEcuMle cloth.
