HEARS FOSTER SEEKS
 DELECATEP0ST
Reported There Cordovan to Oppose Sutherland
 Not Credited Here

Reports circulated in Seattle and reaching Juneau recently were to the effect that Frank H. Foster, Cordova attorney and Third Divis- ion representative in the Alaska Legislature, will be a candidate for the Republican nomination for Delegate to Congress in the pri- mary election next Spring. The Seattle Times carries a story that word had reached Seattle that he would oppose Delegate Sutherland for the nomination
 MT. Fosters friends here, includ- ing prominent Republican leaders in this Division, said they had not heard anything relative to the mat ter. Most of them were inclined to be skeptical about his becoming candidate although agreeing he would make a formidable opponent to the present Delegate or, in case he doesn't choose to run, any other aspirant for his mantle.
 The Seattle Times story said in part:
 Frank H. Foster, of Cordova. member of the Alaska Legislature, is declared to be ready to get into the fight against Sutherland and to have formidable backing in the southeastern part of the territory. He demonstrated his power in the Valdez district by his election to the Legislature.
 Sutherland was elected from Fairbanks, and whether he will have any trouble in the interior or in Nome district is not made clear by Alaska gossip It is said by the Foster following that Sutherland has been out of touch with a series of Republican national admins trations and has not been able to satisfy his constituents. The po- litically minded Alaskans resident in Seattle interpret this to mean that there, is growing number of territorial leaders who wish to be recognized when the appointments are given out at Washington and figure that a change is necessary to bring about that happy result.

met withal by the whole-hearted favor
of a good audience at Mckinley Audi

q sated this evening.
Mr.. Kelly's play upon the notion Of
theatrical idealism, vastly overbalanced
by enthusiasm, is full of waggiSh fun,
amply brought forth by last nights
players under Denis Connell's direction.
The second act especially, hinged upon
the ancient device of a play within

mildly clinical study of exhibitionalism.

phase of the Storys evolution. II Is the

liant young artistic surpaSses in
dramatic portugal eve her finest
moments in Resurrection" the
picture that swept her, over night,
into stardom.
Running the gamut Of human
emotions, feeling all the pangs OF
love, despair and woe, Miss Del
Rio plays upon the heart strings
of her audience. Her histrionic
skill and gift of character define
alton find opportunity for full ex-
j preston in the romantic scenes,
and in the deep, fine nuances OF
pathos and tragedy.
Warner Baxter plays "Alessan-
dro,' the Indian, with a romantic
dash and realism. His portrayal
Of this difficult role is a highly
commendable expression of dra-
matte art. Roland Drew, in the
part of Don Felipe a young
Spanish gentleman of wealth,
gives a splendid performance that
is human and sympathetic. Vera
Lewis is the sinister menace of
the story. In her dramatic scenes
with Miss Del Rio, she makes
Sonora Moreno a grim figure.
There are FIVE great dramatic
climaxes in the picture-the ro-
mantle elopement of Ramona"
with "Alessandro;" the tragic
death of their baby, the most
poignant scene ever screened; the
wanton massacre of d~efenseless
Indians by a band of outlaws; the
cruel murder of "Alessandro;" and
the beautiful restoration of "Ra-
mona's" shattered memory.
There are many other fine mo-
ments in the picture; in fact, it
is studded with them, but these
scenes are climactic highlights
that place Ramona in the galaxy
of screen achievements.
