With Juneau Singers Feature 'Cause For Alarm’ af (apitol Thealre Composer Andre Previn created an unusual “off-beat” musical score as a background for the suspense- packed story of “Cause For Alarm!” currently on view at the Capitol Theatre. Instead of writing the customary objective melody to em- phasize the mood of the picturg, Previn designed his musical score to center on the réactions of star Loretta Young in the Larry Marcus story of what happens in a wo- man’s life from nine a.m. until six p.m. Several of Mack Sennett’s most | famous comedies have been com- bined by Sennett himself into one hilarious full-length film with mu- sic entitled “Down Memory Lane,” which opens tomorrow at the Cap- itol Theatre. Among them are “Sing, Bing, Sing” and “In the Blue of the Night,” both starring Bing Crosby. ‘The Painted Hills” is Lassie’s seventh M-G-M picture and marks his second location trip to the High Sierras. In the new picture, the second feature at the Capitol tomorrow, the collie star appears with Paul Kelly, Bruce Cowling and Gary Gray. Alaska's Teurist Affractions fo Be Told Across Nafion The Alacka Visitors Association, ed an uj propriation and given rity vy the last legislature to Wd/ortise the tourist attractions of Alaska, will hold a meeting of its board of directors in Anchorage December 18 and 19 to select an executive secretary and to launch 1 national advertising campaign. One-half column ads, telling of the attractions of Alaska, are sched- uled for late winter publication in three national publications — for February in Time and Newsweek and March in Sunset.

He said that fur-| at the Anchorage meeting. Sundborg and B. Fred Dunn and | O. F. Benecke, board members | from Juneau, will attend the meet- ing which was called by Robert E. Ellis, Ketchikan, the association’s | president.

This means, he says, that the |association has over $40,000 avail-| able—$20,000 raised by the asso-! ciation and $20,000 of an appropria- tion. The legislature appropriated $40,000 for the visitors association asscociation itself.

Story of Old West Is Comedy At 20th Century It was full speed ahead for laughs as Twentieth Century-Fox's com- edy, “A Ticket to Tomahawk,” opened yesterday at the 20th Cen- tury Theatre. This sparkling story of the old west deals with the trials and trib- ulations of establishing the first narrow gauge railroad in the staté of Colorado, and stars Dan Dailey and Anne Baxter, Dan plays the part of Johnny- Behind - the - Deuce, a wandering drummer who inadvertently gets mixed up in the first trip the little railroad has scheduled. Ar stage owner, Col. Dawson means to see that the railroad does not fulfill the terms of its franchise by getting to Tomahawk on time. Johnny finally makes Epitaph, the first stop on the line in time to get involved in an attempt on the life of the U.S. Marshal. The peace officer's granddaughter, Kit Dodge, Jr.,, played by Anne Baxter, is an unkissed prairie flower, whose skill with a gun is legendary.

Gle—ThEi Wage Stabilization Board (WSB) | announced approval today of 15- | cent hourly wage increases for a | substantial proportion of workers | imr the copper, lead, and zinc mmmgl and refining industry. | Companies affécted are Kenne- | cott Copper Company, Phelps-l Dodge Corp., and American Smelt- | ing and Refining Company and | nine other smaller companies. This gave government approval to recent wage increases for most of the industry. | The exception is Anaconda Cop- | per Campany, whose applications for similar wage increases have | not reached the wage board yet. The principal union involved is the Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, an independent lapor organization | ofisted several years ago from the CIO on grounds its leaders fol-| lowed the Communist line. The workers involved are em- ployed principally in Utah, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico. The board approved only 8 cents out of the 15 cents for the Am- | erican Smelting and Refining Com- pany, saying it wanted to give further study to the additional 7 cents for ASR workers because it involved certain “fringe” issues.

Soviefs Kick On Germans in Elediqn Talks | PARIS, Dec, 6—(®—Over violent 2ussian objections, the United Na- tions special political committee to- day voted to ask representatives of cast and west Germany to take part in its debates on'all-German elec- tions. Russia’s Jacob Malik told the committee eaglier the question of German elections wag nome of the United Nations’ b ess - and the Soviet Union could not favor ex-' tending an invitation to the Ger- mans. b Malik's attitude appeared to rule out any chance of east Germany accepting an invitation, since the Communist-dominated east Ger- man regime closely follows the Sov- iet line. Pakistan had proposed that the invitations be issued. ! The west German government in Bonn said it had a delegation ready to leave for Paris as soon as an invitation should be received. Malik that the western proposal-was not actually aimed at reuniting divided Germany, but “is directed toward consolidation of the split in Germany which they initiat- ed three years ago.” ——Complete lines in | every day. ——We also carry some 45 RPM’s in the populars and will soon complete listings.
