Clara Bow At
Airdome Tonight

With circus life as its back
ground, Dangerous Curves, 3"
which comes to the Fox Imperial
Airdome tonight, presents Clara
Pow in a new type of role.
Instead of snaring the men, as
she has in scores of other pictures,
she has comedy part which gives
her excellent opportunity to dis.
play her charms and the cit
which has made her famous.
Opposite the red-headed star is
Richard Arlen, in the role of a
tightrope walker who is loved by
Clara and whom she saves by a
spectacular rescue.
The picture is by Paramount
from the pen of Viola Brothers
Shore. Upon presentation in Los
Angeles, critics commended the
splendid Improvement shown by
Miss Bow in speaking her lines,
compared with her first efforts il.
this respect.
The plot of Dangerous Curves, >
is interesting and gives the stars
the opportunity of putting their
personality into many splendid bits
on acting.

collected something like $500, not
including several traffic assess

Mike McGowan, all charged with
being drunk were handed fines of

LEGION POST TO
LAY PLANS FOR
EMERGENCY CALL

Assignment of duties in prepara.
ton for the national emergency
call expected sometime during the
next 80 days, will be made at the
meeting of Boyce Aten post of the
American Legion here tonight, ac-
cording to Commander 4. =.
Skipper Farrar.
The national emergency call is
to be staged as part of the program
mapped out by the Legion to act as
lnits of protection and assistance
during major disasters. The idea is
to perfect the various posts in
cases of emergencies so that the
members will be able to render ser
vice to their respective communi
ties if it should be needed.
The state organization staged an
emergency call last month that
brought gratifying results, accord
ing to the department commander.
Thousands of ex-service men turned
out upon a given signal, ready for
whatever action was to be taken.
This call was in the nature of q
test in preparation of the nation
wide call.
The local post was tentatively
organized for emergency calls at
that time but at the meeting to-
night definite appointments will be
made.
1t is expected that report of
the percentage standings of the
various posts throughout the state
will be read the members tonight
The Ell Centre Legionnaires will
probably stand high as ma ajority
of the members turned out when the
call was made last month.
The Ell Centre Bugle and Drum
corps will also hold its weekl,
practice tonight. 1t is expected
that definite action on the new uni
forms will be taken. The first, ol
sample uniform was delivered lasi
week and Wet with the approval OF
those belonging to the organiza
tion.
