persons prominent in social circles of
the Valley. The tremendous value of
the prize list, headed by $2050 Chal-

to many of the best known and promin

Never before in this territory has
such a splendid list of prizes been off

Spectacular thrills, love romance

sesses suspence, you can never guess

1t is a real Fairbanks success with
the stars radiant smile, expressive
pantomimc and weird acrobatic ability
in evidence all the time; Doug took a
hand in the script writing and the rol-
licking ingenuity of the harum-scarum
plot is cut to fit him to perfection. The
grouchiest of mortals would grin when
