ALASKA INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF Machinists—-Local 514 ATTENTION—SPECIAL MEETING WEDNESDAY EVENING at 7:30 o'clock at CAPP'S PLACE, behind Juneau Motor Co. DO NOT FAIL TO ATTEND! THE DAILY AL SLUM LIFE IS PORTRAYED IN CAPITOL FILM “Dead End” Co-starring Joel McCrea and Sylvia Sidney Ends Tonight Tonight for the lasi time at the Capitol Theatre will be seen Samuel great motion picture based on the powerful Sidney Kings- ley drama of life in the city street, with Sylvia Sidney and Joel Mc- Crea heading an imp ive cast. Sylvia Sidney gives her greatest performance as Drina, the little slum girl who fights a valiant but losing battle to save her small motherless brother, Tommy, from the gang- ster's fate she has seen the slum mete out to so many of its sons. Joel McCrea is grand as Dave, the (Wendy Barrie) the girl who has found a dubious route out of the slum into a penthouse in the fash- ionable apartment next door. Humphrey Bogart is superb as “Baby Face” Martin, wanted gang- ster and killer, who crawls back to the slum to see his mother and boyhood sweetheart Francey, once more—and for his trouble receives from his mother stinging recrim- inations and hatred; from Francey the bitter knowledge that she has taken life the easiest way; and from the guns the G-men a body full of lead. Claire Trevor gives a truly great performance as the hard, pathetic little Francey and Allen Jenkins is swell as “Hunk,” henchman of “Baby Face.” As for the celebrated Dead End Kids from the original New York stage cast, Billy Halop, Huntz Hall, Bobby Jordan, Leo Gorcey, Gabriel Dell and Bernard Punsley, their perfection as the tough, brawling babes of the slum defies description. They must be seen—and heard! Others in the notable cast are Charles Peck, Minor Watson, James Burke, Ward Bond, Elizabeth Ris- don, Esther Dale and George Hum- bert. B g SIDES RETURNS FROM INTERIOR M. H. Sides, Deputy Collector of Customs, returned to his Juneau headquarters aboard the PAA plane arriving Sunday evening.
