TWO-DAY RUN AT CAPITOL THEATRE | The ever-appealing and imagina- | tion-tickling tale of the lost conti- nent of Atlantis will receive its latert unveiling when Seymour Nebenzal's “Atlantis” opens tonight at the Capitol Theatre. Latest fictionalization of the leg- end which has plagued the romantic and scientific imaginations of men | since the days of Plato, including THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA NEW STUNT SUGGESTED, BALL GAMES such realists as Montaigne and Vol- taire, is based on Pierre Benoit's novel, “Atlantida” which takes slight departure from the conven- tional theories about the island. Instead, of attributing its disap- | pearance to sinking beneath the | waves of the Atlantic Ocean, Benoit — and, consequently Nebenzal's filmization of his book “Atlantis”— assumes that new lands rose out of |the sea; the desert replaced the waves, surrounding the kingdom ot Atlantis which exists today, a shadow of its former self, in the heart of the Hoggar Mountains in Central . Africa. Ruling over this Atlantis is a magnificantly beautiful and ruth- less queen, played by Maria Mon- tez, the archetype of pagan beauty. Co-starring with her are Jean | Pierre Aumont and Dennis O'’Keefe as two French Spahis officers whe wander within her or:it, searching for an archeologist comrade who had set out on the trial of Atlantis.

Think that was funny? Well, tha. was strictly straight stuff com- pared to what may happen al Zbbets Field this year if Branch Rickey really is serious about hic atest brainchild. Speaking at the annual dinne: ‘endered by Sport Magazine lasi night, the beetle-browed boss of the Dodgers advocated a new ide: in baseball that he admitted “woulc se ridiculed to start with, tut woulc Je universally accepted by the major leagues in due time.” It all sounded like a who-dun-it plot what with everybody asking what happened to the outfielders anyway, listen to whal “Here is a suggestion that all managers should take,” Rickey be- gan. “In a situation where run- ners are 'on first and second with notody out and a hopeless hitter at the plate, he should order two outfielders in thus making a six- man infield and a one-man out- field. The first and third basemen should move in 20 feet down the line. Then you're equal to all occa- sions, “We have plenty of hopeless hit- ters in our league. I have some on my club. “I hope the Brooklyn club tries it every day this year,” he added, “And I assure you we're going to win the pennant.” Rickey's speech highlighted a gala affair thrown for some of the nation’s leading sports celebrities. Only a few of them got awards— Otto Graham of the Cleveland Browns of pro football fame; Jackie Robinson of the Dodgers for ‘raseball eminence; Ray Rob- inson, World Welterweight Cham- pion for boxing proficiercy; Leon Hart, Notre Dame's All-America end, in college football; George Mikan of Minneapolis and Alex Groza of Kentucky for pro and college basketball, respectively. The grand award — Athlete-of- the-Year — went to Tommy Hen- rich, the New York Yankees' “Old | Reliable.” HEAVY JONES NOW RECOVERING FROM KAYO LAST NIGHT PITTSBURGH, Jan. 20— (A — Heavyweight Henry Jones of Detroit was declared in good condition to- day after eing rushed to a hos- pital from a bout at Aragon Gar- dens.

CITY WATER AT HAINES REPORTED FLOWING UPHILL Reporting that the Haines city water supply appeared to be flow- ing wuphill yesterday, Carl Hein- miller of t Chilkoot Barracks Water Supply telephoned the Alaska Department of Health Sani- tation and Engineering division tor aid. Water flowing mains hill that should have been through Haines water apparently was backing up- instead, he said. Cold weather closed off the Ha'nes city water source, and the Chilkoot Baracks water supply was turned into the town's pipes, Heinmiller explained. He said that some of the mains broke, but the akage through them did not seem to account for theé high flow of water which had emptied the Chil- koot reserve tank over night. Suggesting that the Chilkoot water “must be backing up the hill through the Haines empty in- take pipe,” Heinmiller wanted to | know where the valve was located that would close the intake pipe which normally brings water into Haines. Lauris S. Parker, Health | department sanitarian, made a pre- liminary survey of the Haines city | water supply last summer at the request of that city's officials and was able to describe the location Ori the valve. Haines, with a population of about 400, is one of the Alaskan towns which has made application | for aid in kuilding a new water system through the Community Facilities bill, Parker said. 18 SAIL SOUTH ON PRINCESS NORAH FOR 3 B.
