"RED STALLION IN | ROCKIES" iS BILL, CAPITOL THEATRE Photographed in breathtaking | Cinecolor against the splendrous | background of the Colorado Rockies, |Eagle Lion's “Red Stallion in the | Rockies” opens at the Capitol | Theatre tonight. | Impressive with its many se- | quences of visual magnificence “Red Stallion in the Rockies” tells the | story of “Dynamite,” a circus horse who goes “wild” and becomes the ‘leader of a pack of outlaw horses whom he captains in a series of des- tructive raids on surrounding ranch- e He is befriended and brought back to civilization by a young girl who is the granddaughter of one of the ranchers. When an enraged elk at- tacks the girl’s grandmother, “Dyn- amite” leaps at him and there en- | sues one of the most vicious animal | fights ever filmed. The fight to the (death is presented with thrills which aggregate a high tribute to the mo- | tion picture camera. Jean Heather is cast as the girl who befriends “Dynamite” and | offers a winning performance in the ;role. Arthur Franz, directly from his praise-winning role in the Broad- |way hit, “Command Decision,” is | cast opposite her and proves to be ! as excellent on the screen as he was ion the stage. EMPLOYMENT IN JUMP UP AUGUST WASHINGTON, Sept. 1—(P—Em- ployment jumped 1,153,000 in August to reach a new record high of 62,367,~ 000, Secretary of Commerce Sawyer said today . It was “ae first time the 62,000,- 000 mark had been crossed.. The August total for those with jobs was 752,000 above the previous re- cord—61,615,000 in July, 1948. Secretary Sawyer commented: “The economy was gradually mov- ing toward:full employment before the Korean crisis. With increasing defense preparations, it may be ex- pected that this trend will contin- {ue at an accelerated pace.” Factory hiring was chiefly respon- sible for the upswing in jobs. This ! sent the number of persons in non- | farming work to an unprcedented 54,207,000 last month. Unemployment, a bugaboo just a year ago, dropped 713,000 last month to 2,500,000, the lowest since the start of 1949. FIRST TUNA LANDED AT KETCHIKAN SELLS FOR $400 PER TON KETCHIKAN, Sept. 1—{®—The | (left) and Jayne Moore start out to place roadside signs at Pomona, Cal, inviting visitors to 1950 Los Angeles County Fair, THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA INOVEL SUSPENSE " FILM IS COMING 10 20TH CENTURY, Suspense, taunt and terrific, will | arip the audience at the Gross 20th | Century Theatre tomorrow thn‘ | “The Bib Clock” makes it's screen | bow in Juneau. With stars Ray Mill- | and Charles Laughton combining to | | thrill and menace in the season’s most unusual drama, “The Big Clock” ticks away breath-taking entertainment, The Paramount production boasts a new technique in the creation of edge-of-the seat film fare. Unlike the average mystery movie which calls for the audience to guess who- dunnit, “The Big Clock” poses the, exciting riddle of how an innocent man gets out of a net he tightens | around himself. Milland is seen as George Stroud, editor of “Crimeways” magazine, whose genius for tracking down | criminals puts him in the strange | position of being hunter and hunted. | Ordered by his tyrannical boss, Earl Panoth (Laughton), to find the man seén leaving the apartment of Jan- oth’s murdered girl friend shortly | before her death. Stroud finds him- self in the terrifying spot of seek- ing himself. Janoth, who committed the murder, hopes to pin the crime |on the man whose shadow he saw leaving the girl's house as he enter- jed it; he doesn’t know the man is | Stroud. 15 ARE FLOWN HERE on T0 RECORD MARK|FORMER RESDENT | ATIENDS MEETING | BOTANICAL SOCIETY Dr, J.
