"REDSKIN" COMING
 TO COLISEUM SUNDAY

"Redskin," filmed in natural col- or. brings to the screen all the won ders of the majestic Canyon de Chelly, near the Navajo reservation in Arizona. Here nature has gone riot, giving the lands all the colors of the rainbow and the sunset, vast distance, tremendous cliffs, long, broad sweeps of tumultuous rocks, sands and ventures.
 The Enchanted Mesa. The pie turesque homes of the Indians who live in their adobe houses, high up on their fortified mesa, living now, as they did centuries ago.
 Imagine the color of a Navajo chiefs regal blanket.
 "Redskin' has sweep of move ment beyond description; tragic and dramatic theme of thought provoking, soul-stirring, heart-rend- ing power.
 Richard Dix in a dramatic role which Dix, himself, considers the greatest one of his career.
 "Redskin" is at the Coliseum next Sunday.

NEW SYSTEM
 FOR TALK|ES
P a a ce Theatre Securing Improvements for New
 Talking Scenes

Charles A. LaHar, RIGA Photo phone engineer and a crew of cleo oricians is working on the stage and operating room in the Palace theatre installing the latest system of sound reproduction developed by the leading radio and electrical interests in the country.
 The outstanding features of the new system, hailed by audiences in the principal theatres of the country as giving absolutely life like reproduction of music and speech in talking motion pictures are:
 Remarkable naturalness of the music and speech reproduction, at tained through the latest acousti- cal achievements of the radio art;
 2.-An unique method of pho tographing sound and motion on the same film which ensures perfect synchronization of action and speech;
 3. New methods of achieving accoustical perspec tive so that sounds are given their relative ton- al values without the flatness of music or speech that heretofore has characterized sound reproduc- tion in motion pictures;
 IA wider range of sound ef- fects made possible by the improved electro dynamic loud speaker used in the reproduction of sound.

HOOT GIBSON AT
 PALACE TONIGHT

If you want to see something unusual in Western photoplays, do not fail to see Hoot Gibson, Uni versaps well known cowboy star in "The Wild West Show" which is to be the feature attraction at the Palace tonight.
 It's a circus from beginning to end, with Hoot appearing in the role of Rodeo Bill, star cowpuncher of the country, and the complica- tions he gets into surpass all he has ever previously experienced. He's the whole show with an extra "side-show' thrown in by the other members of the cast.
 To begin at the beginning he takes a gang of his cowboy cronies to a small town circus and because the performers don't come up to expectations, they start riot. The noise frightens the horses hauling a stage coach used in the show and the leading lady is carried away in one of the most breath taking dashes ever screened.
 Rodeo Bill and his gang go in pursuit and finally rescue the girl. Bill discovers he is ip love with her. The story then becomes more interesting.

Attractions At Theatres
HEARTS IN DIXIE"
 AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

From reports that have been re- ceived locally, Hearts in Dixie, '' Fox Movietone an-talking produc- tion which opens an engagement tonight at the Coliseum Theatre, seems destined to be rated one of the best pictures of 1929.
 There are several reasons for this estimate, and the most signifi- cant is that it has been perfectly synchronized-which, with the pie lures generous number of songs and and other musical features, means more than it ordinarily does.
 A story of Dixieland, just after the Civil War, the entertainment value of Hearts in Dixie" is en- hanced by the fact that, in an un- usual way, the development of the story is to be not alone seen, but heard. A chorus of sixty voices singing spiritual songs has aroused great enthusiasm wherever the pie ture has been, shown. In addition there is an orchestra, many danc- CTS and other performers.
 Directed by Paul Sloane, Hearts in Dixie" is brought to the screen as the second recent pioneer effort of Fox Movietone, the first being the original outdoor all-talking full length feature, Tn Old Arizona"
 Hearts in Dixie has been wide 1y acclaimed as the most novel con- tribution to the speaking screen.

GIT million pounds valued at $96,- C0c,000 Fishery by-products pro- duced in that year had value of $14,880,000. The quanaities of fish frozen exceeded 113,600,000 pounds the largest figure on record. Over 65 million pounds of packaged fresh and frozen fish-three and halt times the output of 1926-valued at nearly $10,00O,0O0 were market ed. Exports of fish from the United States in 1928 reached a total of $2l 100000.
 White Law Effective
 The wisdom of the White law oi 1924, broadening the powers of the Secretary of Commerce over AL aska fisheries is evidenced by the improvements in the runs of sal mon, the commercial catch of which in 1928 exceeded SIT million pounds and by the stabilization of the salmon industry.
 The fur-seal herd of Alaska, tn , report reveals, under the Bureau s program of hubandry has been bull. up to nearly a million animals or more than five times the combined total of all other fur seals in the world. With this growth it has been possible to increase the take of skios rom surplus bulls to more than 10000 per anpum. The herd is increasing at the rate of over 5 per cent each year.
 Referring to the Bureaus ac- ;ivities on behalf of the American sportsman, the report points to the extension of it's relations with States and sportsmens organiza- tions. The fish-nursery system, whereby sportsmen furnish pools and ponds and rear to lingering or adult size fish received from Federal hatcheries has expaned so that IA units were in operation during the past fiscal year Of the total output of fish and eggs from Government stations amount ing to more than seven billion in the last fiscal year, game fish &C., counted for approximately 260 mill lion. While the output of com mercial species is on such huge scale that they have to be put pack in the waters as small fry, Commissioner OMalley d e c ares that every effort has been made to grow game fish to larger sizes before putting them in ponds and streams.
 Use of Resources
 The desirability of employing to the fullest extent possible the i'm. mense food resources of the sea is emphasized in the report, which points out that through the ages the seas have been absorbing ele- ments essential to the health of man and animals. To follow out this policy, according to Commis-

AID EXTENDED BY ACCOMPANIMENT
 IS IMPORTANT
Material Factor in Growth of American Fisheries,
 Says O'Malley

That the continued growth and present prosperity of our commer- cial fisheries is due in no small measure to the fundamental re- searches carried on by the Federal Government in connection with fisheries problems and the tech nical assistance rendered the fish cries industry is revealed in the annual report of U. S. Commis- sioner of Fisheries Henry OMal- ley made public today
 The needs of this industry Com missioner O'Malley compares to those of agriculture, pointing out that fishing operations are carried cn by large number of small units which lack organization and the necessary capital to conduct technical research. Such condi- l tions, he declares, require that the Federal Government make these fundamental investigations if the fisheries industry is to show pro- gress similar to that in the indus trial field.
 ] Marked Progress Made
 Marked progress is being made by our fisheries industries in im- proving the handling, manufactur- ing and merchandising of their re- spective products. A factor which has undoubtedly been of import ,ance in these improved methods has been the employment by, pri- vate organizations of skilled tech nclogists who have received their training in the Federal bureau
 The improvement in the quality of the fisheries products now of fered the public. the report points out, has brought about a greatly increased demand, to supply which fishing activities have been in- tensified to a great degree. This situation has resulted in some in- stances of seriously threatening the future supply of certain fish. Be- cause of this development the Bureau of Fisheries has had con- stantly increasing demands made lpon it for information concerning the condition of each important fishery ard restrictions which may be necessary to insure a continu- ence of large-scale operations. States T.nok fa Rureau
 ] Many important species of fish are migratory and cover a wide range, the report shows. Fisher
 ies operations are carried on in State, interstate and international boundary waters and on the high seas. While each State makes it's own laws governing the fisheries within it's boundaries, the State authorities and those engaged in the industry generally look to the Bureau to make the investigations necessary to determine the trend
 of each important fishery and to recommend the restrictions need ful, for maintenance and supply. Statistics collected by the Bureau show that our annual harvest of
 fishery products amounts to about
 three billion pounds for which
 127,000 fishermen receive around
 $113,000Oo0. In 1928 the pack of canped fishery products exceeded
