Talented Boy
ViOlinist To
Lead Normal Life
By United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 14.-The
fingers of Yehudi Menuhin-des-
tined, his teachers believe, some
day to stir the world, as they bring
forth music from the violin, are not
to be protected from the dangers of
baseball and football and if the boy
genius desires he may permit his
knuckles to crack under the rigors
of marbles.
A carefree, normal boys life is
planned by his parents.
The talent of the lad, which has
won highest praise from the ma
tion's critics, will be developed as
he grows older, but will not be ex-
plotted for the monetary returns
offered by theatrical producers
while he is young.
Ychudi appeared in two concerts
in New York and one critic wrote:
'The world rushes to the hall in
tion for the prodigy is based on
amazemcnt that one so young can
accomplish such results. 1t seems
that Ychudi Menuhin is one of
geniuscs when time will only serve
to develop into further greatness.
However, to accept tempting off
ers to exploit their boy for money
or glory would be murderous to his
future career, his parents are quoted
as saying. They mentioned the
fatcs of many other youths who had
shown promise of future greatness
in their early days, only to live
lives of obscurity later.

The sequences at sea, and the bat

 WHAT PRICE GLORY" COMING TO COLISEUM

With the limitations of the stage play cast aside, with Raoul Walsh setting his camera to vis- ualize the hates, passions and loves Of the war, there is a ne- cessity that we place this screen entertainment at the top of the list of best motion pictures of the year.
 None of the vitality of the orig inal stage production was lost in the screen translation. In fact, we have to agree with all the oth- CT critics in the opinion that here is a picture that surpasses the original in every way.

Irene starring Colleen Moore, opened at the Palace last night and proved to the two audiences that it is one of the clever faa- lures of the screen. It is on again tonight and Saturday. The dainty little star is surrounded by a most capable cast and the fashion show, which is given in colors, almost two reels, is the classiest and most gorgeous scene perhaps seen in Juneau in months. Men as well as women take in the wondrous beauty of the settings, costumes and models wearing them.
 Irene is perhaps one of the best things First National has shown in Juneau for a long time and that is going some. The full musical score. directed by Carol Beery Davis is played by the or chestra.
 The cast supporting the. fair Colleen includes Lloyd Hughes, her leading man; George K Ar thur, who enacts the role of Ma dame Lucy; Marion Aye and Bess Flowers, Irene's friends; Charles Murray, Kate Price, Lawrence Wheat, Ida Darling.
