If you don’t believe it, just ask film producer Sol Les- sor, whose latest film, the laugh- ing-spree — “3 Is A Family” open- ing at the Capitol tonight for a 3-day run. Lesser is scouting for talent and searching small towns is nothing new, but he feund Cherl Walker right in the middle of Hcllywoed, and Lon McCallister at the studic’s back door. Both are in the present film. Preducer David O. Selznick found Eric Sinclair while the latter was on a visit to Hollywood, and Dor- othy Garner when e was selling cigarettes in a Hollywood night club. “3 Is A Pamily” is what Mr. Les- ser calls a story of a careless stork, with babies arriving willy nilly dur- war without any respect for circumstances, such as housing shortages, expectant papas doing duty in the armed services, hard- hearted landlords, maid problems, and so on. Charlie Ruggles, veteran stage and screen comedian, plays Grand- pa, with Fay Bainter a charming Grandma, and Marjoriec Reynolds and Fred Brady the proud parents of the cutest pair of identical twins ever to be shown in a film play. They are Donna and Elissa Lamb- ertson, aged nine months apiece. Some others in the excellent cast are Helen Broderick, whose ready wit matches well with that of Charlie Ruggles, Arthur Lake, Miss Jeff Donnell, Hattie McDaniel, Walter Catlett, Else Janssen, Warren Hy- mer and John Philliber.

Mr. Foster returned to his head- quarters here yesterday from Seattle where he sat in with the villagers while they reached their decision to! accept the invitation of Atka towns- folk to consolidate peoples. Sixteen of the Attus that survived im- prisonment by the Japs are to be taken, with household supplies and other replaced equipment, to Atka by Army transport. New housing is tant Pink streams in this area ap- peared to have an excellent seed- ing. No large escapement of Chums was observed in any part of the Inlet, but most of the smaller streams observed carried Chum spawners. The increase in the Red salmon pack at Kodiak is attributed to the excellent runs of this species at Red | River and Olga Bay. The runs intol these areas were exceptionally good, particularly Red River, which pro- duced a commercial catch of 658,000 salmon. While the weir count at Red River did not quite equal this number, the cscapement is considered ample. The Karluk run was disappointing some- what, with a catch of about 589,000 salmon and an escapement of about 660,000. The escapement and com- mercial catch at Olga Bay were 347,000 and 568,000 respectively. The Pink and Chum runs at Kodiak did not develop to normal proportions! until after the beginning of August, causing considerable anxiety by all concerned.

The plot deals with the strange dual personality of Norris, who is apparently killed in an automobile wcident on the night of his en- gagement party. His fiancee enlists the aid of a scientist who has pre- 'viously restored life to animals.and this doctor undertakes to perform a similar operation on the dead man. 'His experiment reaches its crucial point just as Panino, a vicious criminal, is electrocuted, and the soul of the gangster passes into the bedy of Norris, who returns to life. Assuming the characteristics of the criminal, Norris takes over the leadership of his gang and embarks on career of crime, culminating in series of brutal murders A succession of exciting events leads to a startling climax 'NEARLY HUNDRED DISCHARGES PUT ON NEW LISTING Ninety-nine aiscnargees make up the bulk of an 113 name draft re- |classification list released here to- day by Local Selectlve Board No. 3. ‘“\\\ Registrants listed, with their new classifications, are: 1-A—Davis Perrin, Jr., Edward J A Nelson, Williamn J.

Other Red salmon streams are believed to have receiv- ed average escapements. Observation of the majority of the Pink and Chum streams in Prince William Sound during the early part of the season indicated a fair escapement | throughout from the early runs. In addition, with the exception of the streams of Port Wells and some of the streams of Port Nellie Juan the| streams in the district received a good escapement from the later runs that continued to come in until af- ter the close of the season, giving in general a satisfactory seeding in the district on a whole. The major Red salmon spawning areas of Cook Inlet including the Kenai and Kasilof River areas were believed to have received a normal escapement throughout the season, and post season surveys appeared satisfactory. The opening of beaver dams on many of these important streams and their tributaries prior to the time of upstream migrations by Captain R. L. Cole, Fish and Wildlife Service, through funds pro- vided by the Cook Inlet packers, contributed greatly to this satisfac- tory seeding. The escapement in Fish Creek, an important stream in Upped Knik Arm was poorly seeded, due in part to large num- bers of Reds taken from the stream and spawning grounds by local res- idents “supposedly” for home con- sumption, but obviously in greater quantities than this use could jus- tify.
