BILL AT LYRIC
 IS IOVl' JUNE
Second Musical Comedy Of Summer Being
 Presented

The Honey Bunch comedians pre- senting "Lovin' June" at the Lyric theatre this week as the second musi- cal comedy bill of the summer season continue to dray laughs with the com edy situations of the play.
 It's the old story of woman hater falling in love with a chance acq6aint- ance. How efforts are made to bring the "hater" into touch with the girl and then later to get him away from her bring about the clever comedy sit nations with which the play abounds.
 The specialties of the program-Sid Jacobs doing character songs in eccen- tries and Inez Marvin with her violin and in coon shouting number-were again the big hits of the bill.
 The entire cast in "Lovin' June'' gets away to a good start and pumps the fast comedy lines at Sid Garrison who is seen in the lead comedy role that of fly detective-in which char acter he finds a wealth of material to bring out the laughs.
 While "Lovin' June" is under way the troupe has been rehearsing Not Tonight, Dearie," the musical comedy that takes the stage for the dhird weeks offering at the Lyri-. Not Tonight, Dearie," a Broadway musical show success, is making its first ap- pearance in miniature form this season and the presentation at the Lyric next week will be one of the first stock productions of the show in the south.

JEFFERSON HAS BIG AUDIENCES
Players Make Great Pre- l sentation Of Jane L COwl's Drama

Mith Miss Kathleen Comegys in the role of Ellen Neal, also J. Glynn Mac Farlane as Hugh Fullerton and DeFor- est Dawley enacting the part of Judge Samuel Filson, Jane Cowl's Common Clay" one of the most absorbing drames of the modern stage, is being given fine presentation by the All Star Jefferson Players during this week.
 Such fayorites as A. S. Byron, who interprets the role of W. H. Yates, at- torney, as we'll as George Westlake as MT. Fullerton and Peter Buffers as Artie Coakley, also are adding to their laurels and the audience during the opening performances of the week have been liberal in showing their apprecia- tion of this first dramatic offering at the Jefferson in some weeks.
 In fact the reception given this pro- duction at Monday nights and Tues days two performances shows that Bir- Mingham audiences are rather partial to the dramatic, when presented by such a body of artists as the All-Star Jef- ferson Players, and this fact has given great encouragement to the manage ment, who promise still better things in the future.
 Common Clay" is not only the story of the regeneration of jwomankind in the person of Ellen Neal, but also in fine lines exposes much of the hypocracy of the so-called better class" the pro- fiteering engaged in by responsibility reaping a harvest from vice 'in whole sale" and other striking and even startling problems of modern city life.

TEMPLE SHOWS
 GREAT COMEDY
Al Christie Feature Head Of Program This
 Week

All the space in the Christie studios which was not devoted to covered stages was utilized in the building of a city street with tall buildings, sub way entrances and other detail dur ing the production of Hold Your Breath" the Al Christie Feature play ing at the Temple theatre this week.
 The nature of the scenes which in clude thrilling episodes as well as com edy, made it impractical to photograph these sequences in the crowded down town area, so the building of a com plete street was found necessary.

Priscilla Bonner, Jim. mic Harrison, Lincoln Plumer, Patricia Palmer, Rosa Gore, George Pierce, Jay Belasco, Victor Rodman, Budd Fine, Eddie Baker and Douglas Carter.

HAVE BIG DANCE
 WEST LAKE PARK
Two Orchestras Furnish Music
 For Feature Night

Attendance records at West Lake Park may be shattered tonight if the quality and magnitude of the program arranged for is any criterion by which to judge crowds, for the management in staging Feature Night tonight, has completed all details to have two big jazz orchestras on hand to furnish a continuous stream of dance music in the great open air pavilion.
 In addition to the popular Jack Linx Society serenaders, who hold forth reg ularly at West Lake, Watson's Original Bellhops, just recently returned from an out-of-town trip, will also be on hand to furnish music for the shuf. fling, twinkling feet of the gay danc- ing crowd which will be on hand.
 These two orchestras will introduce some new dance numbers during the course of the evenings entertainment, to be put ove- in the modernized way, according to the respective leaders of the orchestras, which, if one may judge by past performances of Watson's and Linx's orchestras, means some stepping dance numbers.

RAINS DELAY FARMERS
Far Behind With Work In Coosa
 County

GOODWATER, Ala, June 1O.-Cot- ton has come out wonderfully for the past two weeks, but the continuous rains have placed the farmers far be- hind with their work. Corn is, also, late and much of it needs cultivation badly. A large melon crop has been planted in this section, and prospects are not bright for a normal crop at this time, owing to the infestation of bugs, which are sapping the vines. More than a hundred cars of melons were shipped from here last year and some of the best melons shipped into Birmingham came from Go0dwater.
 Named Town Clerk-W. R. Crew has been elected by the town council town clerk, succeeding J. s. Flemming, who recently died. Only two names were placed before the body for the place. W. R. Crew and Robert Wilson, and the vote stood three for Crew and one for Wilson. z. D. Sprayberry has re. signed as chief of police.

CHARGED WITH JERJURY
Bodeker Detectives Arrest Hartsfield
 On Cheek Charges

OH NHOCh SHdA BOo
 Clever work by operatives of the Bodeker National Detective agency, which has its headquarters in Birming- ham, landed J. T. Hartsfield in jail Tuesday afternoon on charges of pass ing bad checks on a number of local merchants.
 Hartsfield was here in 1922 and dropped out of sight after cashing sey- eral checks that turned out to be worthless. A short time ago he re- turned and quietly took position with the Welded Products company, as a structural steel worker. Later more of his cheeks turned up at downtown business houses and the Bodeker agency took charge of the case.
 Skillfully laying trap for Harts- field, the operatives lay in wait. They traced him to his working place Tues day. In his pocket was a check which he admitted he was preparing to pass.
 Dan Bodeker, F. c. Macke and A. Vanarsdale, of the detective agency, after grilling Hartsfield, obtained a full confession. He was turned over to the police.
 Hartsfield admitted that merchants in Birmingham and elsewhere had wanted him for long time. He said his home was in Atlanta at S2 Plum street. He admitted serving a year in Memphis on check charges.
 The Drennen Hardware company Robertson & Sons, Kinds Upshaw Paint company, Winter Clothing company and the Guarantee Leather company were among the most recent victims of Hartsfield. Bodeker operatives de- scribed him as one of the shrewdest artists ever operating here. The total of the checks he cashed will reach a sizeable figure, they said.

CONCERNED IN MINING
AS Member of Congress- Mr. Suzer Was One of the Devoted
Friends of Alaska andIs Still Engaged In Con-
structve Work for the Territory

quartz and placer mines in Alaska are
in the White River Mining Precinct.
Much work has been done on these
mines, under great difficulty, and at
much expense, to prove their worth,
and the miners, and the owners inter
ested, are entitled to consideration
from the Alaska Roads Commission
to get transportation to and from their
properties.
The trail from Chisana to Nc
Carthy makes it impossible to ship
ore, and almost impossible to get in
supplies If the Government would
build this road thousands and thou
sands Of tons Of gold and copper ores
would be shipped out Of the district
every month. Thus far the Govern
ment has done little to help the people
in this section Of Alaska. They are
just as much entitled to roads and
help as the people in other parts Of
Alaska.
Besides the wonderful mineral re-
sources of the White River Mining
Precinct, there is much land in the
precinct available for farming, cattle
raising, etc, but nothing can be done
in this connection until there is road
transportation, and, the quickest anc
easiest transportation would be for the
Government to build a tractor road
from Mccarthy to Chisana, about z:
miles. This road need not be com.
pleted this year It can be completed
next year.
lit is a most meritorious PROPOSE
ton, and viii pay for itself hundred
fold every year-in actual wealth-to
the people Of the United States. Be
sides, sooner or later, it will be the
basis for the Government railroad
from Fairbanks to Mccarthy, connect
ing with the Copper River & North
western Railroad-and some dav this
railroad must be built.
This is the only way to open up
one of the greatest sections Of inte-
rior Alaska, the resources Of which
are beyond the dreams Of avarice.
William Sulzer.
