There is a remarkable interest in the States in Alaska, Mr. Ordway repor and be believes that the Alaska Good Will tour will be big- ser than ever this year. Tourist traffic, he predicts from bookings {reported in Seattle, will be extra heavy and bookings now are more than ever for this season of the year. Anticipating a big season, the Alaska Line has added the steamer Dorothy Alexander to its | Alaska fleet. | While in the south, the photo-| {grapher, who has taken thousands {of pictures throughout the Terri- itory, was swamped with requests |to show his movies and other scenes. |He gave two half-hour talks on the |Territory over radio station KJR {and was forced to turn down other |requests owing to lack of time. He rappeared as a guest before various jclubs and organizations, showing ihis Alaska pictures before an au- |dience of 300 at the Seattle Cham- |ber of Commerce, 40 at the Cham- ;ber's Alaska committee session, 75 lat the Exchange Club, 80 at the Washington Athletic Club, 150 at |Kiwanis, 375 at the University of ,Washington, 180 at the Daughters you and jof the Alaska-Yukon Pioneers, 100 |at the National Aeronautical Asso- lciation, 50 at the Women’s Aero- Inautical Association besides a large 'number of private showings. The photographer reports that the Alaska Travel Agency in the New Whashington is performing a real service for Alaskans. Operated by Miss Verba Bras, the agency maintains a registering service so that if you want to find any Alas- kan in Seattle you need only call the agency and it will locate them in a short time, While in the south, Mr. Ordway, known as the “flying photographer,” completed his flying time and quali- fied for an amateur pilot's license. Lloyd Jarman, he teported, is com- pleting his time for a private license, and, incidentally, Lloyd has estab- lished another record at Boeing Field. He is said to have been able to eat more hamburgers than any other man on the field.

THREE BOATS GET RAISE IN HALIBUT PRICE HERE TODAY ( A raise of one-tenth of a cent in the price on small halibut was re- icorded on the Juneau Fish Ex- change today, all three companies ilocated here meeting the new price, lof 6 and 4.10 cents. Three boats which arrived in port over the week-end from the banks sold today at that price. The Viy- |ian, Capt. Charles Larsen, sold ten Ethousand pounds to the New Eng- land Fish Company, the Marie, Capt. Peter Oswald, sold its 7,500 pounds to the Alaska Coast Fisher- les, and the Thelma, Capt. Bernt Alstead, disposed of ten thousand ,bounds of halibut to the Sebastian- |Stuart buyer, E. E. Engstrom. Three other boats took bait and | {ice at the Juneau Cold Smnze‘ |this afternoon, preparatory to mak- ing their second trips to the banks. {They were: R. D., Capt. J. Russell Elliott; Dixon, Capt.

Up to press time this afternoon, Juneau Agent Louis Delebecque had received no word as to whether the plane would remain overnight at Whitehorse, or continue to Juneau. The plane will return to the In- terior after connecting here with the steamer Alaska from Seattle, due tomorrow forenoon. e ———— — DALES RETURNING HERE George A.

(Ten-Year-Old Hollywood Cor- respendent For The Empire) HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 29.— The thing I like best about Hayold Lloyd was that when he laughs he really laughs. I interviewed Mr Lloyd in his bungalow on the stu- dio lot. I asked him how many pictures he had made. “That I can't answer,” he said. but his press agent said the figure was somewhere between the 500 and 600 mark. I asked him how long he had been making pictures and he said: “I am what you would call an old timer, I have been in the busi- ness 20 years.” Looks Young When first I saw Mr. Lloyd I did not recognize him because he did not have glasses on. seen him on the screen and never appears in pictures without glasses, or I should say rims for {they have no glass in them. Then, too, he looked much younger than 1 expected to see him. He seemed much too young to have been in pictures so long. He told me that on his son's birthday he asked the boy what he iand he said that he wanted some- thing different and one of his young friénds said hé knew just the thing —a Western. sod and his frinends without hav- ing previously seen it. lynching, roping people on horses,” {Mr. Lloyd said. “Everybody in the iroom Jooked like they were going {to cry,” he said. So about the mid- idle of the picture he put on the the difference. 8 Kisses From Ginger viewed Miss Ginger Rogers He said that he had an experience with Miss Rogers. Ginger staged a program for the benefit of flood relief and she had had some dolls she was auctioning. The bidding went up and Cary Grant said he would bid higher . if Mi Rogers would throw in a kiss. Miss Rog- ers agreed to this and the bidding went soaring. Mr. Lloyd was finally the top bidder and got the doll and ex- pected to collect the kiss later. But the cameramen rushed in and set their cameras. There was only sup- posed to be one kiss but there turn- ed out to be seven or eight, Mr. Lloyd said, “because you know how the photographers are, they want pictures from all angles.” I asked Mr. Lloyd how many “The Milky Way”? He said five times. “Is that all?” I asked. “That was enough!” he said 10 INDICTMENTS ARE RETURNED BY GRAND The Grand Jury, which is meeting in Ketchikan in connection with the court term, has returned thus far 10 indictments, according to word received here.
