BIRD SEASON | "ENDS TODAY; DEER, MONDAY With the migratory waterfowl season for Southeast Alaska clos- ing this afternoon at 3:54 o'clock, the Fish and Wildlife Service re- ports that the season here has been generally poor, with a decrease of ducks on local flats. However, some hunters who went beyond the im- mediate area did fairly well on koth ducks and geese. 1 Ducks were much scarcer 'locally { than in other years, although there was a plenitude of geese popula- tion. The southern migratory flight on SHOCKING STORY OF INTRIGUE IS NOW AT CAPITOL The truth, it has frequently bvcni d‘emu ated, can be stranger than | ict.on. Not only stranger, but more | dramatic, more fascinating and even | more shocking! | Columbia’s “To the Ends of the Earth” starring Dick Powell and Signe Hasso, is one of the best illus- | trations of this truism. The film, which turns the spotlight on' the in- | ternational underworld, is now at the Capitol Theatre, and is report- ed to be a fatulous story of exotic adventure and romance. It is based | on hitherto secret files of the U. S. Treasury and its Bureau of Narcot- | ics, Customs and Coast Guard.

Trailing the ring through the far ities of Shanghai, Cairo, Beyrouth and Havana, Powell enlists the aid of operatives of other governments. As the chase gathers fury, agents of the criminal syndicate attempt to smuggle out a cargo of contra- Land. In the climactic moments of the film, however, Powell outwits and outfights the gang, finally cap- ituring its leader and destroying the 1ing. R IS AUTO FREIGHT (0.
