FOREST FIRE AT TENAKEE QUICKLY
 UNDER CONTROL

A forest fire which started from unknown cause on the Southeast shore of Tenakee Inlet, between Crab Bay and Big Bay, on May q was quickly put out by Deputy U. s. Marshal c. J. Sullivan and a party which he got together, ac- eording to a report which was sent to the U. s. Marshal's office About five acres were burned but there were not many trees in the center the report said. On the Big Bay side, where most of the fighting was done to keep the fire from en- te~ing the timber, there were no burned trees.
 Those who helped with the fire fighting were Jack Carmel, Martin Paddock, Fred Paddock, N. G. Doble ard Oscar Hansen.
 A letter of appreciation was sent to the Marshals office by U. s. District Forester, 0. H. Flory of the U. S. Forest service, and all ex- penses were repaid by the Forest Service.

Attractions At Theatres
- WEIRD MYSTERY IS
 AT PALACE SUNDAY

Dropping thirteen feet, from a trapdoor into dark cellar, runn- ing at top speed around the mar row ledge of steep roof where a slip of the foot means death, and being forced through a tiny man. hole into a slimy drain are few of the perilous things required of the police dog who is playing an important' role in "The Thirteenth Hour" Chester M. F'ranklin's latest feature production for Metro-Gold- wyn-Mayer, coming to the Palace tomorrow
 In the story, an original by Ches- ter M. Franklin and Douglas Fur Der, the dog is the pal and as- sistant of Matt Gray, scientific young detective, played by Charles Delaney. In. discovering the iden- tity of the mysterious crook who murdered wealthy woman for her jewels, the dog and his master en- counter many weird and danger ous obstacles that furnish innum- erable thrills for the new picture.
 One of the features of 'The Thir- teenth Hour" is haunted" house, with countless sliding panels, sec ret entrances, and trap doors, that is occupied by Professor Neville Le- roy, an eccentric old gentleman in- terested in psychic powers. This role is played by Lionel Barrymore. As the feminine lead, Jacquelin Gadsdon plays the part of Mary Lyle, secretary of Professor Leroy, and sweetheart of the young de- tective-hero. The rest of the cast includes Fred Kelsey, Polly Moran, Cecil Ray, Rose Tapley, Bud Fine, O. A. Trent and others of note. The story was adapted for the screen by Edward T. Lowe, Jr.

s45O,0OO POWER PROJECT ABOUT
 HALF COMPLETE
Big Anchorage Hydro-El- cetric Plant to Be Built
 by Middle of Summer

Anehorage's half-million dollar hydro-electric power pro j ct at Eklutna will be completed by mid summer, according to Maj. Malcolm Elliott, President of the Alaska Road Commission, who returned early this week after an inspection of that work and of the Lowell Creek Hume at Seward. The Com mission is supervising the Eklutna project for the Federal Power Commission.
 The work there is practically 50 per cent completed, Major Elliott said. The transmission line has been constructed from the plant at Eklutna to Anchorage and is ready to carry the load when the power shall be turned on.
 The initial development com prises a dam across a narrow can- yon in the Eklutna River thus cre- ating a reservoir. From this the water will be taken through a range of hills in tunnel 1900 feet in length to the Alaska Rail- road at Eklutna. The initial unit will furnish about 1900 horsepower and will cost to construct $450,000 It is planned to expand the pro- ject eventually to produce about 4,000 horsepower.
 It is owned by an Anchorage company. Stock is held in Anchor age in the amount of $50,000, the remaining capital being furnished by investors in the States. The engineering work is in charge of the F. II. Tibbetts Company, San Francisco, and the construction be- ing done by John Storey Company also of San Francisco.
 The Lowell Creek Hume is sub- stantial pie/e of work capable of performing the services for which it was built-protecting the town of Seward from floods from Lowell Creek, Major Elliott said He found it was clogged with stumps and timbers and made arrange rlents for it to be cleared at once To prevent recurrence of this condition, all such material will be burned immediately.
 A conference was held by Major Elliott with municipal officers Sew ard and arrangements made for patrolling and Illuminating the Hume during emergency periods | Of the money appropriated for the project, there remains $13,000 which is continuing and will be available until it is exhausted for any re- pairs or betterments that may be necessary.

STORY OF SEEK LOVE
 AT COLISEUM SUNDAY

Beauty, romance and action make "Fazil," Fox picture which opens at the Coliseum Sunday, one of the film treats. Charles. Farrell and Greta Nissen are the featured play CTS. The production was directed by Howard Hawks.
 Fazil, an Arab tribal prince, is sent to Venice on a diplomatic mis- sion and falls madly in love with Fabienne, a French girl. He sweeps her off her feet with his ardent love- making. Their happy honey moon is spent in Paris, but before long, his inborn prejudice leads him to object to her freedom with other men and when she refuses to yield to his beliefs, he leaves her and returns to the desert.
 Fabienns follows and enters the harem, which he has maintained in deference to custom. He dismisSes the harem girls and he and Fa- bienne are united again. But there are further clashes between the two representatives of East and West, and Fabienne arranges with her friends to help her to escape from the palace, which leads to a tremendous climax, in which Fazil is wounded. The ending has an unexpected twist and is highly dramatic.
 Farrell makes a handsome sheik, one sure to flutter the hearts of flappers and older women as well. Miss Nissen. white skinned and blonde is decided contrast to the dark, bronzed Prince. Both give remarkable performances. The sup porting company includes Mae Busch, Tyler Brooke, John Boles,

LEAGUE SEASON
 STARTS SUNDAY
Dou b leheader Scheduled for Tomorrow-Gover-
 nor to Pitch First Ball

With all the usual formalities, the City League will open the 1929 baseball season in Juneau tomorrow afternoon with doubleheader that brings all four clubs into action. Gov. George A. Parks will open the season, pitching the first ball to Mayor T. B. Judson, his battery mate.
 The usual flag-raising, minus the pennant part, will be put on. And the Juneau City Band, with custom ary willingness to help good cause along, will be on hand with band concert from the grand stand.
 AS the Elks, who were awarded the 1928 pennant, turned it back because of the fact that the titular series was not actually played there will be no pefnant hoisted to the top of the flagpole.
 All of the ceremonies will be over with by pm. The opening game of the season will start at that hour between the Elks and Ameri- can Legion clubs. The bargain end of the bill will bring the Moose and Douglas clubs together.
 Umpire-in-Chie Roy Thomas, veteran league catcher whose in- jured knee is keeping him out of the game this season, will be on hand to call 'em as he sees 'em. He has the power to select his own assistants.

TAL.KIES WILL
 BE PRODUCED
 NEXT TUESDAY
Vitaphone and Movietone Features Coming to
 Coliseum Next Week

Next Tuesday night those who are fortunate in getting into the Coliseum theatre will "see them and hear them, for on that night the first Vitaphone and Movietone fea- lures will be seen and heard in Juneau, in fact the first time in Alaska.
 Last night. shortly before mid night, preview of the entire pro- gram to be given at the Coliseum next Tuesday night, was started and everything moved like clock work until the program was over at 1:30 o'clock this morning. From the time Will Hayes appeared on the screen and made his short speech about the talkies, and par ticularly Vitaphone, through the talkie nows reels, vaudeville acts and then the feature "The Terror" !" the few privileged at the preview sat in amazement, and even aplaud- cd some of the acts and shrieked when the mystery feature was being unfolded
 The sound is perfect in the Coli scum, every work spoken being dis tinct and clear and the installa- tion has proven a success. Between now and the opening night, minor 1 adjustments will be made and everything will be ready for most suspicious opening
 w. D. Gross was an interested i on-looker last night and was con- graduated d at the closing of the preview for spending thous- ands of dollars and being the first to bring the talkies to Alaska.
 Behind the mass of technical phrases used to express the pro- cesses by which talking pictures are made are two methods that have come to be accepted by the picture producers making sound pie lures: the film and the disc meth ods.
 With the film method the sound record consists of a band about one-eighth inch wide, called the sound track, which runs down one side of the film and consists oi microscopic lines. The density oi these lines depends on the loudness of the sound so that the greater the contrast between light and dark lines the louder will be the sound In other respects the film resembles the ordinary kind.
 The disc method employs disc records that are similar to the best types of phonograph records except that they are much larger and TUT at about half the speed of phono- graph record. In this way it is able to play throughout a whole reel. The film used with the disc recording resembles an ordinary film except that it has specia marking at the beginning of rec to give the starting point for the disc synchronization.
 Both methods for recording anc reproducing are supplied by Vest ern Electric, and both are used by the Coliseum.
