"'katinka,' the brilliant new musical
play which Arthur Hammerstein will
present at Missoula Theater Saturday.
March 8. at. 8 p. m.
The melody of "Rackety Coo" and
the other singing and dancing num-
bers Of "katinka" are the work Of
Rudolf Friml, who supplied the scores
for THE FREELY" and High links"
and whose fame among American
light opera composers is firmly cs-
tablished. The words to the various
songs and the plot and lines of, the
play are the work of Otto Hauerbach,
collaboration with F'riml in the other
two productions. "Rackcty Cool" is
said to be the most catchy song these
two famous artists ever turned out,
and it's popularity on Broadway last
winter was a reminder of the old days
of The Merry Widow waltz. In ad-
dition to "Rackety Cool" the score of
'*Katinka" fairly bristles with such
tuneful hits as "Katinka," II Want to

Notwithstanding this unfavorable re-
port, Walter Macfarlane retained faith
in the possibilities of Hawaiian canned
tuna, and at an outlay of less than
$4,000 established and equipped the
