Of course, the black skinned knuckles which o prominently on the screen eyes and up are show | make-believe. Both are experienced actors and know how to fight without getting hurt. Foster and Tucker took seatings because the fight wa staged in the ice-cold mountair stream fed waters of Hoosier Lake 10,000 feet up in the Wasatch Mountains in Utah. Despite their extreme physical activity, Foster and Tucker could »nly stay in the water five minutes 1t a time before coming out to thaw their frozen bodies. They were given steaming cups of tea at each emerz- ance to help’ them warm up.

TRY ALASKA HIGHWAY| The Alaska Highway is the most adventuresome motor trip on the| continent, Renald Schiller in the February Digest. Evi on flat land the road twists into; hairpin curves. In rough terrain| it goes up and down like a roller| coaster. Sometimes clinging to the sides of cliffs 400 feet high, it turns sharply without warning, giving | rear-seat passengers the stomach- gripping sensation of taking off into space. There is not a guard rail in its entire length. | The 1,523 miles of the Highway between Dawson Creek, B. C. and Fairbanks, Alaska, are not, however, | quite as rugged as they were a few years ago. It is no longer ne- cessary to take along food, camp- ing equipment and ektra Lodges, garages and stores have opened at intervals of 50 to 100 miles along the route. You'd better have at least six good tires, how- ever. You should observe, too, the an- cient law of the Yukon that no one may withhold help from sanyone who needs it. If you drive by a car in a ditch without offering assistance you may find that no lodging is available to you any- where along the Highway. ‘Though many more tourists flock Reg s’ produced by Eowaro Leven-Eowaro J.
