Bixby, Joe Wilson and Mrs. Ross Morrison THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNFAU, ALASKA FRED ASTAIRE AND GINGER ROGERS IN CAPITOL FEATURE Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers together again in M-G-M’s song- and-dance, fun-and-frolic musical “The Barkleys of Broadway"! America’s favorite dancing sweet- hearts of all time, the team that made film musical history in such unforgettable pictures as “Flying Down to Rio,” “Top Hat,” “The Gay | Divorcee” and “The Story of Ver- | non and Irene Castle,” are reunited on the Capitol Theatre’s screen in their tenth picture together, and their first in Technicolor. “The Barkleys of Broadway"” is the answer to the thousands of fans who never have stopped writing ap- peals that Astaire and Miss Rogers | be teamed again during the 'ten vears in which they have gone sepa- rate ways in Hollywood. It provides them with a gay, romantice story filled with laughs; it gives them seven new song hits from the pen of Harry Warren and Ira Gershwin,; it presents them together in five [tion to solo numbers. The exciting musical score is also highlighted by Oscar Levant’s playing of the popu- lar Khachaturian “Sabre Dance’ and Tschaikowsky’s “B Flat Minor Concerto.” 23 DELAYED PASSENGERS |CARRIED TODAY BY PAA After changes in American World Airways had extra flying to do today.

They said the fish are biting well, | but the ice is becoming thin and | caution should ke exercised when! walking on it, Although ¢one salmon has bcen‘ caught locally, and a king or two | has been seen jumping in the| schools of ndedle-fish near Tee\ Harbor, the main early run is not, expected for a week or two. Reports from Hoonah indicate the run has reached that point, but local sportsmen said it is im- possible to predict how long after it reaches Hoonah it will reach this area. Several parties have been or- ganized to try the waters around | Juneau this weekend, and sports- | men think the results of these wonderful dance routines, in addi- | yesterday’s | schedule due to local weather, Pan | overheaded Juneau | Hildre, Mrs. John Kline, Richard| | | April 5 | | AWAIT EARLY RUN OF |, | At 7:30 p.m.—Juneau |R.

The shot is heard 'round | the world, for the king’s death-bed ' confession names a New York plat- | ter spinner as his son and heir to; the throne. The “clown” prince is, ! of course, Hope, selling dog food— not toothpaste—over the air. | Here begins the exeiting story. | COMMUNTY EVENTS At 2 p.m.—Rainbow girls meet, Scot- | tish Rite Temple. { At 2 p.m.—Juneau Bingers reheursnl‘ at 20th Century Theatre. | At 3 pm.—VFW Auxiliary sllver; tea and apron sale in Methodist Church parlors.
