SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1945 As long as men think iove‘s the fifth freedom and women think its a one-way road to marriage-... Therell be riotous complications! “CHASIN’ THE BLU For Your Added Pleasure ES”—A Musical “HOLLYWOOD DAREDEVILS” THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE-<JUNEAU, ALASKA A LADY TAKES A CHANCE” IS BIG BILL AT CAPITOL 1’ Packed with hilarious and unex- | pected comedy from start to finish | and with light-hearted, tender ro- | mance of a novel kind, “A Lady Takes a Chance” co-stars Jean Ar- | thur and John Wdyne in what is said to be one of the year's most entertaining pictures. This is the | feature starting at the Capitol on 1 Sunday. | A transcontinental bus trip from New York City to the Pacific Coast and back is the idea of the story but nearly all the action takes place in eastern Oregon. There Mollie,| a Manhattan bank clerk on her first vacation in years, meets Duke, a redeo rider who is tossed right into her lap by a bucking broncho. Moilic has never met anyone like Duke before, and vice versa. Their Stormy and picturesque romance sweeps headlong, punctuated by hil- arious situations in a frontier gamb- ling room, a rickety hotel, on the Tt and at an auto camp, as Mol- who has missed her bus in all the excitement, hitch-hikes across the state to catch the vehicle on its return trip. Mollie decides she wants'to marry | the tall capable Westerner, but Duke has no inteption of letting any filly drcp a matrimonial loop over his| neck. Waco, Duke's rotund elderly | pal, loyally tries to dissuade the de- | termined girl from her wedding| plans, and apparently succeeds. But | when the travel-weary party gets' back to New York City, unexpected | things begin happening around the bus terminal where the trip began. | e ——— ALEXANDER | HONORED AT Tonight! “Adventures of a Rookie" ""Hat Check Honey" THREE NAME BANDS SHELDON JACKSON $CHOOL CHOIR TO SING, N.
