 FRESNO, Calif, Jan. 12 (P)-Verne Shannon, aged 21, was held in the county jail here today following his al leged confession that he tried to ex- tort money from Lew Cody and Dauglas Fairbanks, motion picture actors, William Wrigley, IT,, chewing gum magnate, and B. L. Doheny, wealthy oil man.

SEA BEAST JUsT|F|Es
 ADVANCE PRESS REPORTS

"The Sea Beast" yesterday at the Liberty Theatre, justified in every way all the glowing heaps of golden adjectives that have been piled up about this supreme effort of the Warner Brothers.
 John Barrymore is the star, but even with Barrymore, the one actor who brings to the screen the feel of genius, the drama of "The Sea Beast is the thing. For the Sea Beast, in it's suggestive power, in it's overtones of surging life, is more than a photoplay; it is an epic of the heroic lives of the American whalers when, in their swift clipper ships, they carried their whale hunts thro- ugh the seven seas. It is a picture of rich, colorful beauty; of heart-sear- ing pathos; of poetry that sings in action of courageous deeds ;of emo- tions as violent and eternal as the terrific storms that sweep through the picture.
 The sea dominates, and, even Barrymore, superb actor that he is, is less, as any human would be less, than the epic that flashes tumultu- ously across the screen; the epic of the American sailors of 1S40
 Nevertheless, the picture gives Barrymore the opportunity for the biggest and most impressive char acterization that he has given to the screen

VOTE SO FAR GREATLY In
FAVOR COMMUNITY CHEST

Mrs. Sam G. Baillie, regional direc-
tor Of the newly organized Girls Re-
serves organization of Arizona was in
Flagstaff a few days ago and asked
permission from the Chamber of
Commerce to solicit funds in Flagstaff
to the amount of about $500.
The Girl Reserves work is nationally
known, being sponsored by the Y. w.
C. A. Up to a year ago, Arizona did
not support this work but it was felt
by leaders among women in the state
that there is a definite need for it,
particularly in the case of the high
school girl. The Camp Fire program
has definite interest for the girl up
to high school age and is rather lack
ing in interest from that point. The
program Of Girl Reserves takes up
the thread of interest there and con-
tinues on through high school.
It was recommended to Mrs, Baillie
that she do nothing about solicitation
here until it is decided whether Flag
staff is to have a community chest.
If community chest committee is
formed, representatives from all log
ical character building and charitable
agencies such as the Girl Reserves,
Camp Fire Girls, Boy Scouts, Saliva
ton Army, Crittenden home, Tucson
Children's home, etc, will be called to
meet with the committee to determine
the exact amount of the budget for the
year. Every participating agency
will be required to present an item
lied budget over a period of three
years showing disbursements with
particular attention to Flagstaff and
vicinity, that the committee may
know where money raised in Flagstaff
will go.
Judging from the straw vote being
taken by the Chamber of Commerce
relative to the formation of a COM
munity chest here it seems to be the
general wish that this be done. Out
of the 42 votes now received, only two
registered a negative vote with one
vote ION the fence" All members Of
the Chamber are asked to send in
their cards Immediately.

TWO SUSPECTS HELD in
JAIL FOR ROBBING AND
SLUCCINC OF MERCHANT

Two men, Leon Sherman and Har-
old Moore, are being held in the
county jail here awaiting trial at the
next session of superior court for the
slugging and robbery early last Sat
urday morning of X. G. Kirby, 65-
year-old Williams grocer, and making
away with $57.
The two suspects, identified as tour
lists who had been residing at a Will
liams auto camp, were arrested in
Holbrook by Sheriff Dan Devilbess of
Navajo county on information supplied
from the local sheriff's office. They
were brought back to Flagstaff by
Deputy Sheriff Art Vandevier and
Constable B. C, Black. A search of
their persons showed an automatic
revolver, a Colt revolver, flashlight
and bunch of master keys.
The thieves, both armed with guns,
gained access to the store by prying
off the iron bars on a rear window.
Mr.. Kirby heard the sound of break
ing wood and got up to investigate,
his sleeping quarters being in the
rear of his store. Confronted by the
aged proprietor, one of the intruders
struck him over the head with the butt
of his gun, telling him to be quiet.
Mr.. Kirby attempted to grapple with
his assailant. A second blow stunned
him and the two men then took his
money and made their escape.
Sheriff j. o. Parsons here is seek
ing to ascertain if there is any con-
nection between the slugging and rob-
berry and series of petty burglaries
committed in the vicinity of Williams
during the spast four weeks. 1t is
thought that the alleged assaulters
may have committed the hold-up at
the Grand Canyon checking station
several weeks ago.
Sherman and Moore were taken to
Williams by Sheriff j. o. Parsons
Tuesday morning for preliminary
hearing before Justice of Peace Geo.
MacDougall. They were bound over
to superior court under bonds of
$1,000 each.

WILD GRAPE SEASON is ON

Many are the signs that fall is here.
Bright scarlet patches among the
woodbine, yellow and russet tips on
box elder branches, pungent night
odors from ripening wild grasses, and
crisp mornings.
Wild grapes are ripe in the canyons
and many are the cars which returned
with bags of fruit for making the
finest of wild jelly. They are plenti-
full this year and just right for put
ting up. Gooseberries were not abun-
dant this season and heavy rains made
gathering them at the peak of their
season difficult. Still those who
didn't mind getting wet and stuck up
with thorns regarded themselves as
lucky.

Congressman Douglas Repudiates
The Hunt State Administration

"Arizona has the most deplorable
state administration in its history"
Lewis w. Douglas, democrat, United
States congressman from Arizona de-
clared Tuesday night on his return
from Washington, d. G. where he has
been busy the past few months ar
ranging his office and preparing for
the coming session of congress.
II have no hesitancy," Congress
man Dougless declared, "in branding
the present state administration as
the most inefficient and deplorable in
the history of Arizona. Politics is the
dominant factor in the state govern
ment which is controlled by group
of political tricksters seeking to fur
ther their own personal aims. / can
not boast of Arizona's government; in
fact | feel ashamed when | look about
me and see how this state is con-
trolled."
The Swing johnson bill will pass
the next session Of congress in the
opinion of Mr.. Douglas. II feel that
the Denver conference has done much
to help Arizona's case and the meet
ing to be held in Denver on Sept. 19
will further bolster our case. But
S6HtlM0IL dIlOu8 tSOiSA SoolACll AllOA-
Gates that the Swing johnson bill is
going to pass"
The steadily climbing tax rate, Mr..
Douglas says, is keeping capital out
of Arizona" Throughout the east
this increasing tax rate is discussed
in the financial centers and it is de-
plorable that our state administration
is boosting instead of cooperating
with the legislature to keep down in
creasing governmental costs.
"When | say the state administra-
tion is deplorable | mean just what |
say. In fact I would add that the
present state administration is abso
lutely rotten and with the group of
politicians in control of state affairs
we can expect little relief. The citi-
zens of Arizona should feel ashamed
of affairs here and make such pro-
test that politics will be kicked en-
tirely out of the state capitol and an
efficient business-ike administration
substituted to guide the affairs of this
growing commonwealth"
Mr.. Douglas will be in Phoenix for
several days after which he will leave
to inspect his mining property in the
southern part of the state. He will
return to Washington in about 30
days. Mrs. Douglas remained in the
east.-Arizona Republican.
