The damage, estimated at ap- proximately $50, will be taken care®of by the Alaska Theatre Company and greater care taken in the future, Mr. Shattuck was assured. ’ —l Georgia’s first public health law, passed in 1732, appropriated 13 guineas for the relief of impover- ished women about to become mothers.

CONFERENCE NET OUTFITS BOW TO MARQUETTE FIVE March 17— MILWAUKEE, Wi Various ‘‘wonder fives” diana colleges have had their years ‘when they delighted in embarrass- ing Western conference basketball {teams, but Marquette University |has compiled a two-season mark that compares with the best. This winter, for the second straight year, Coach Bill Chand- ler's Hillioppers captured five of their six games against Big Ten foes for a two-year “standing” of 10 won, 2 lost. Incidentally, that | figure has been good enough to win championships, or tie for them. in most Big Ten seasons, which consist of 12 league games. ‘Wisconsin, Marquette's arch-ri- |val, was the only league team to 1sbop the Hilltoppers this season, while Northwestern did it the year |before. In each case the result was reversed at the second meet- ing of the teams. Besides the even break with ‘Wisconsin, the current Marqueite team conquered Chicago twice, and Northwestern and Ohio State, ac- cumulating 184 points to opponents’ from In-| | BE HERE SUNDAY | in the role of Sadie Thompson,| B ch- |~ 1158, i gllllllmnflflmflflflflflllflmmlflIHIHHIIIHIHIIIHIHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIlIIIIIHIIIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllIIIIIIINIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllilillfiilliilllll At Colisewm Sunday DOUBLE FEATURE BILL IS ON TODAY AT COLISEUM ‘Three on i; Marlch' Is Title i of Exciting Four-Star | | Film Opening Sunday | """" { The contrasting stories of the, {lives of three young girls when| Itheir paths converge to create |series of highly dramatic events {is the unique material used by| v Kubec Glasmon, John| | Bright and Lucient Hubbard for| {the plot of “Three On A Match,” the First National picture which (comes tomorrow to the Coliseum Lyle Talbet, Ann Dvorak and Warren William in a scene from “Three cn a Match,” the Warner Brothers drama cpening at the | Coliseum tomorrow.
