OCTOBER 15, 1929 Police Chief G. A. Getchell announced that traffic was rapidly accommodating itself to the new code, only a dozen tickets having been issued for infractions during the two days it had been effective. In honor of the ninth birthday of their son, Clarence, Mr. and Mrs. J.T. Foster had entertained 15 of his friends at a party the day before. Among the guests were Ennis and Thomas White, Bobby Garstein, Bobby Davis, Bobby Garrett, Eddie Nelson, Tommy Powers, Peter and Georgie Guerrero, Billy Geddes, Sonny Dalton, Walter Fukuyama, Raymond Paul, Alf Olson and Alec Miller. Two of the first sound pictures—still well-remembered as outstand- ing—were being shown, “The Desert Song” with John Boles, Carlotta King, Louise Fazenda and Myrna Loy, was at the Coliseum. Richard Barthelmess and Lina Basquette, starred in “The Wheel of Chance” at the Palace. Col. Otto F. Ohlson, General Manager of the Alaska Railroad, was a passenger on the Alaska, enroute to Washington, D.

LOW-COST TOURIST SERVICE BY PAA T0 SOUTH AMERICA Low-cost tourist service tetween Jthe United Statés and South Am- erica will be continued through the! winter by Pan American World Airways and by Pan American Grace Airways, according to B. F. Dunn, district traffic manager for Juneau. Tied in with reduced fares be- tween Seattle and Alaskan points, substantial savings are offered by the company to territorial resi- dents who may be planning to fol- low the sun southward this year. Tourist-class travelers will be carried on fast schedules in four- engine Clippers on South American trips, Dunn said.
