THURSDAY, APRIL 22, 1948 | "THE EGG AND I” COMING TONIGHT, CAPITOL THEATRE “The Egg and 1,” the movie ver- sion of Betty MacDonald’s best sel- ler which has been read by more than 25 million persons, comes to=~ night to the Capitol Theatre with Claudette Colber: and Fred Mac- {Murray in the starring roles of Bet- |ty and Bob. | One of the most hilarious pieces lof Americana ever concocted, the | plcture recounts the adventures of a honeymooning couple who try to wrest a living from a mountain- wildnerness chicken ranch | Miss Colbert discards her trade- |mark glamour and literally goes |back to the soil, even to the point of dunking herself in the odiferous |mud of a pigsty while she wrestles | with “Cleopatra,” the temperamen- tal sow. , MacMurray, as the slow-witted, pre-occupied husband who is un- akle to recognize the fact that his |wife is working herself to death in |a struggle with yesterday's incon- | veniences, has a role exactly tail-| fored to his style. | The book has been produced by | Universal-International on a lavish scale. A spectacular forest fire which |burns down the ranch just when |the noneymooners think they have |won their struggle is one of the | highlights. ’ ’ B from the' riotous | \ CACKLING | CLASSIC!

The announce- ment was made by R. A. Littlefield who will be in charge of the office here. This is the first time the company has done businc:-: @ Alaska and explains the filing of Articles of In- corporation earlier this week with Auditor Frank A. Boyle. At first, it was believed that the filing meant that Safeway would enter the retail business. Littlefield says he is not connect- ed with tha tend of the Safeway en- terprises and cannot make any pre- dictions on iaai point but it is pro- bably safe to state that the entry into Alaska business was strictly from a point of securing fish. | S e PAC.
