Their pic-| tures, a part of the camera rec-| ord they kept of their trip, are| full of interest and should‘result in more big game hunters fol- lowing their path into Alaska”and the Yukon. Of especial interest to Juneau is| the photorraph of Joe and “Muz” Tbach, at ther home at Lemesu- rier Island.

Other claims against the assets of the Treadwell Com- pany as set forth in the complaint include Ogden Mills, $300,000, Alas- ka Juneau $300,000, F. W. Bradley estate, nearly $2,000,000 and Bern- ard Baruch, financier, $150,000. The Bradley estate is that of the late President of the Alaska Juneau. Smith’s complaint said he made the Treadwell Company six loans of $25,000 each. He said his action was taken to assure priority will not be given to other claims. The complaint says the bank ac- count of the Treadwell-Yukon, which owns properties in the Yu- kon Territory, Ontario and Nevada is ample to cover Smith's claim. —————— A 125-yard goal was scored by the Kansas City Country Club polo team in defeating the University of Missouri four, 5-0.

PHONE 58 ¥ TEiE FRESH Sy TODAY ° {OCERY WILL ROGERS IN ‘DOWN T0 EARTH' AT THE CAPITOL Famous Comecllan Delights Audiences in Latest Fea- ture, Modern Theme Very different in fheme and in treatment from its star's previous screen offerings, but all the more interesting and entertaining for that, “Down To Earth” scored a decided hit with local Will Rogers fans at its opening yesterday at the Capitol Theatre. Realizing the timeliness of turn- ing his witty spotlight on present conditions, the noted humorist has unobtrusively woven the very hu- man story of a business man's domestic and financial worries in- to the background of a riotously funny picture. His solution for his problems is as significant as it is humorous. “Down To Earth” brings back the lovable Pike Peters and the socially ambitious Idy Peters of chers‘ first talkie, “They Had To e Paris.” Their European jaunt over they are again in Claremore, Oklahoma, where Idy is now the town’s social leader. Pike is wor- ried over the financial ouflook, but Idy and their son, Ross, are too busy spending the family income to pay any attention to his warn- ings. A bank failure sends Pike hur- rying to Chicago, for a big lcan, Ithe only thing that will save the i business from a crash. In this he is unsuccessful, but he meets the Grand Duke Michael, an old friend of Paris days, and brings him back to Oklahoma. On arrival matters come swiftly to a head; Ross has gambled away the family fortune; Idy' is giving an extravagant cos- tume ball to announce Ross’ en- | gagement to a girl he dislikes but whose money - he feels the family needs; Pike himself is about to be thrown into bankruptey. A Whirlwind Climax The unconventional methods Pike uses to bring the headstrong fam- ily “down to earth” again makes a whirlwind climax to the film, which in many respects is the best Rich again plays the part of his irresponsible - wife and Theodore Lodi once more becomes the Rus- sian Duke. Dorothy Jordan, Mat- ty Kemp, Mary Carlisle, Bran- don Hurst and other notables head the supporting cast with uniform- ly excellent work. David Butler, who has two pre- vious Rogers films to his credit, has done a fine job of directing, and Homer Croy's story is even better suited to he cowboy phil- osopher’s personality than was the author’s “They Had To See Par- 18" By all means see this offering —and bring the family. The program is concluded with !a late news reel and selected short subjects. —————— BRIT. JOCKEY OUT T0 BEAT RACE REBUR‘D LONDON, Oct. 30.—A dour little | waning racing season in his gallop | | against time to, create a new British record. He is Gordon Richards, diminu- tive and 29 years old, who has been England’s champion jockey for six times in eight yedrs and is assured of being the 1933 cham- pion. |~ The record he is aiming'to sur- pass is that of 246 winners in a single season, set up in 1885 by Fred Archer, and with 39 days !left he lacked just 29 winning ! mounts to set a new mark. Early in October, Archer accom- plished the amazing feet of riding 12 consecutive winners over a three | day period. This feat of winning all six races on one program had not been matched since 1882. { “~When he rode his two-hun- dredth winner of the 1933 season, he became the first jockey to | complete the “double century” since 1893. In that year Tommy Loates rode 222 winners, the near- jest any English jockey has ever been to Archer’s long-standing record, There were eight seasons in which Archer rode more than 200 winners. Greater than his ambition to eclipse Archer's high-season record, ‘however, is Richards’ goal of beat- \ing Archer’s mark for his wholz \career—2,278 first places. When Richards rode his two hundredth winner this season, he had a total of 1,353 wins to his career’s credit. Short Racing Season British turf racing followers are mindful of the fact that Amer- ica boasts a racing prodigy in the jperson of young Jack Westrope, iwho reached the 200-mark well in advance of Richards, but they also point out that there is no closed season on flat racing in the states while here it lasts from March to HNoyember. ‘Richards, who came to the furf when, in bis ‘boyhoad, he was at- effort of the star's career.
