FAIRBANKS A
GOOD ROLE

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, Aug. IL.
Douglas Fairbanks, jr., will not
play the juvenile lead in Light
nin'."
To explain why necessitates a
little trip behind the scenes in
Hollywood.
Out here, the word billing" is
an all-important one. It refers
to the manner in which the
players name is featured in ad,
vertising a picture. All of the
important stars have clauses in
their contracts protecting them
on this point. And it so hap
pens that Douglas Fairbanks, jr.'s
billing clause conflicted with
Fox's promotion plans.
In a Will Rogers picture, Of
course, his name overshadows all
others. But that was all right.
Doug Jr.'s contract reads that he
shall not receive worse than Sec
ond billing. When arrangements
had been completed to borrow
Doug Jr. from First National,
however, 1t was discovered that
Louise Dresser had a similar con-
tract.
With matters thus at q dead
lock, Fox appealed to Miss
Dresser, and she conceded a point
for the single picture.
BY this time, though, First Ma
tional had come to the opinion
that a juvenile lead in a Rogers
picture is not of enough impor-
tance for player whom they
are building toward stardom.
So, it's all off, and somebody
else will get the role.
Silly, isn't 1t. But how i'm
portant in Hollywood.

INVESTIGATION OF PINK FISH
 IS CONTINUED
pr. Davidson Resumes Bio- logical Study of Pink
 Salmon Fishery

Dr. Fred A. Davidson, biologist of the United States Bureau of Fish cries, who last year started an investigation of the pink salmon fishery of Southeast Alaska, ar- rived here today for short visit to confer with local officers of the Bureau. He has resumed his studies and will be located at Olive Cove, in the Wrangell district, most of the season.
 A small laboratory and fish pen have been erected there to facili- tate Dr. Davidson's researches which embrace the biological side of the fishery. While the equip ment is not elaborate, it is exten- sive enough to permit simple exper- iments to be made in the field Dr. Davidson said.
 Two objects are aimed at in the work at Olive Cove. One of a de- termination of the similarity, or lack of it, in the fish throughout the runs. The second is the changes taking place in the fish due to sexual maturing. A study of chemical compositions, by simple analyses of the water, and theil effect on the fish, will also bt made.
