SCHOOL ENDS SEASON
 ON FOOTBALL FIELD

Tuesdays football game with the Douglas Bremen ended in defeat for the Juneau High School with a score of 21 to o. The Bremen played a good game and earned their victory.
 The school team put up a deter mined but ineffective fight against superior weight The field was d sea of mud and many fumbles marked the play, as result. Juneau's speed was not much in evidence and the consistent smashing plays of the Bremen broke through for three 1, ,touchdowns Goal was kicked each time. Most of the players shovel ID well, but Barragar, White and H0lmquist were the individual stars for the home team. For Douglas. Garn, Graham, Nelson and Manning played ball of superior quality.
 This game probably marks the end If the football season as there are no focre games scheduled to be played
 Substitutions during the game were White, substituting for Britt as half back, in the second half; Britt put on line in Whites place as left tackle. McNaughton substituted for Manning and Johanson for T. Sherrin in the second half.

APPOINTMENT" AT THE
 COLISEUM NEXT SUNDAY

Next Sunday "Atonement," the new photoplay in which the charming Grace Davison and Conway Tearle appear as co-stars. will hold the place of honor on the screen at the Coli scum Theater.
 This picture. which is all American in theme and treatment, was sug- gested by the great romantic story, ''The Living Corpse" by Count Leo TOlstoi. In adapting the novel for the screen only the helpful and wholesome elements of the original have been retained. The result of this novel departure in scenario adap- tation has been most successful, for the great dramatic strength of the original story has, lost none of it's power by being enacted against a New World background
 The work of Miss Davison and Conway Tearle, as well as that of the large, supporting company, has been highly praised, and the photo play will without doubt enjoy the same great success here that was ac- corded it in New York.
