It is des- tined to create much controversy and it behooves you to get ac- quainted early with what the com- imotion is all about. Directed by Eddie Buzzells, who made the smart “Child oi Man- hattan,” the story is a screen or- iginal by Robert Riskin showing the inevitable conflict that arises when a woman’s professional acti- vities threaten her domestic hap- piness. Fay Wray is cast in the role of a talented woman lawyer | whose over-zealous attention to her legal affairs causes her husband 1to leave home and seek forgetful- {ness in the arms of another wo- man. Complications tend to wi- jden the breach between the pair {and it takes a tragedy to bridge {the gap, with the woman making | her choice between Love and Lux- ury. Her choice would be the { choice of every woman in the same predicament—or would it? See what you think. Gene Raymond, recently seen in “If T Had a Million” and “Zoo in Budapest” is the hapless hus- band and it needs only a glance to see why he falls easy victim |of the willowy Claire Dodd, Jes- sie Ralph accounts for a splendid character portrayal. Claude Gil- lingwater, Arthur Jierson and Frank Conroy stand out in the strong supporting cast. The interesting program is con- cluded with short subjects and a late news reel.

Surprised? Not when you know Goldie—she always gets along! As you will see at the Capitol Thea- tre tomorrow evening when the RKO-Radi6 picture, “Goldie Gets Along” opens with Lili Damita, Charles Morton and Sam' Hardy in the leading roles. Lili Damita, beautiful, vivac- ious, clever, plays Goldie. She loves Bill Tobin, played by Charles Morton, but can't make up her mind to accept his heart-and-hand and-cottage-for-two, until she has satisfied her yen to see herself as the movies 'see her! She begins her adventures, which become funny, thrilling and ro- mantic. Standing on foot, shé bums a ride in a stolen car that puts her behind bars, though not for long. She confinues on her way to Hollywood, this time team- ed with Sam Hardy, playing Mul- doon, whose beauty contest racket cleans up for him but gets Goldie nothing until she puts over a trick or two. So Goldie gets along—right up to the studio gates—and that is where the real excitement begins! Will Rogers America’s inimitable Will Rog- ars, whose pertinent political sat ire, wise-cracks and whimsical hu- mor, have placed him at the very top of box office atfractions throughout the country, will again delight Juneau audiences tonight when he appears at the Capitol for the last time in “Down to Earth,” with Dorothy Jordan and Iren2 Rich.

M. GOODNEWS BAY COMESTOFRONT (Anchorage Times) An important and extensive new mining operation with equipment is to be undertaken in Aleska next season, according to announcement made here today. The new enterprise will be launch- ed in the Goodnews platinum plac- er area, tributary by airplane con- nection to Anchorage, and meaning much to this community and this section of Alaska. The news of the mew venture is announced by Walter G. Culver, who states that Olson and Lind- gren, well known and long estab- lished placer gold operators of the Flat district, Alaska, have taken over the leases obtained this sea- son by Culver on some sixty claims | in the Goodnews area. The plan' is to ship in drag line and other equipment for operation on the properties. The equipment, it is | understood, all will be new, and | will be shipped north by steamer next season, and unloaded at Good- news Bay and taken to the creeks, some 12 to 15 miles, by caterpillar tractors. The properties secured by Olson and Lindgren include claims on Salmon River and tributary creeks, among them Squirrel, Dowray, Platinum and Quartz Creeks. The Goodnews Bay camp has beéen producing placer platinum for several seasons, and is one of the very few platinaum fields in Alaska, and i8 believed to ‘have a leng life. The market price of platinum now is only about a third of what is was before the war, but et that is much higher than that of gold, being somewhere near $40 an ounce according to late quota- tions. Most of the Goodnews out- put of platinum last year was shipped to Anchorage and forwarded through Tlocal banks to London, England, the chief market for the produet. S —————e.
