SHANGHAI LADY" IS
 COMING TO PALACE

The China Coast and especially the city of Shanghai have always been famous in both song and story for the color'ful glamor of their existence. Famous writers and poets have glorified them in litera- ture and famous dramatists have added to their oriental lustre on the worlds greatest stages.
 The Orient is the locale of pie turesque romance just as Ireland is the home of the Blarney Stone. To the magnetic streets of Shang- hai are attracted adventurers from the four corners of the world, ad- venturers who find there the ire sistible lure which made the city the crossroads of the earth.
 Such is the fascinating setting of Universals Shanghai Lady" starring beautiful Mary Nolan, which comes to the Palace on Sun day. To the natural appeal of the locale hes been added the tremen- dous glamor of the John Colton play--the meeting of two white drifters, a man and a girl, at the crossroads, and of what then tran spires.

3T Attractions At Theatres
TWIN BEDS" IS AT
 COLISEUM TONIGHT

The bedroom farce stlll provides the ideal vehicle for light comedy.
 In such a setting Jack Mulhall is in his element. Therefore, when First National-Vitaphone Produc- tions decided to film Margaret Mayo and Salisbury Fields highly successful farce Twin Beds," Null hall was the instant choice for the star.
 Twin Beds" at the Coliseum to- night, deals with the adventures of a bridegroom and bride who are separated on their wedding night. A whole series of side-splitting in cidents occur-the rambling drunk who gets into the wrong apart ment-the irate housewife who chases him, the parade of pajama- clad men and women through the
The Daily Alaska empire., 1930-06-06

apartment house-these are only a few of the highlights of a rol- licking story.
 In the limited confines of the- atre stage, Twin Beds" was a hi- larious affair indeed; with the screens wider scope, it is even funnier and more complicated.
 Patsy Ruth Miller, Mulhalls leading lady, portrays hello girl in the story and some of the scenes are at large switchboard with many girls answering calls.
 The cast includes Eddie Crib bon, Armand Kaliz, Gertrude Astor Alice Lake, Knute Erickson, Ben Hendricks, Jr., James Ford, Edythe Chapman and zasu Pitts.

GIRL IN GLASS CAGE"
 IS AT PALACE TONIGHT

Girls pursued by men are usual- ly hidden as far as possible from the gaze of males by their pro- tectors.
 When George Kibbe Turner, the | famous author, wrote his successful story ''The Girl in the Glass Cage" he reversed this usual procedure and had a suspicious and grabbed old uncle place his beautiful niece in a cage of glass-the cashiers cage of movie theatre-that he might watch her constantly. v
 This unique situation is to be the basis for the plot of "The Girl in the Glass Cage" the motion picture adapted from the Turner story, and which comes to the Pal ace Theatre tonight.
 An all-star cast will present this First National picture, which was directed by Ralph Dawson. Loretta Young, beautiful young First National actress, and Carroll Nye, handsome juvenile, head this cast making up a new team of screen lovers. They were first in- troduced together in the sensational picture "The Squall," also made by First National.
 Matthew Betz, Lucien Littlefield, George Stone and other favorites of the screen are others who are prominently cast in this dramatic story of life and love in small town.
 "The Girl in the Glass Gage" is said to be one of the most thrilling stories of the present season, and it's coming will be awaited with special interest here. &

!MANVlLLES RETURN
 FROM MONTH SPENT
 l UP WHITING RIVER

After spending a month up the Whiting river in the vicinity of Lake Crescent, MT. and Mrs. Vic tor Manville returned to Juneau yesterday.
 Manville has been on prospect ing trip up the Whiting in the borderline district, but reported finding nothing particularly good While up river he brought down three brown bears.
 Pictures which he took show the boundary line on a mountain up the Whiting. There has been some argument, according to Manville, as to the existence of boundary there. The Canadians, he said have cut 3O-foot strip through the for est to mark the line, and also have placed monuments at the bottom of at least one of the mountains to mark the place where British Co., lumbia and Alaska meet.
 He reported brown bear in large numbers, very few beavers and some big trout in Lake Crescent which is covered with ice. The en- tire country has a good covering of snow, he said. N'
 Among other things of interest in the Lake country, is the exis- tence of seals in Lake Crescent Ap- parently, Manville said, they went up river in the fall and remained in the lake all winter, living on the fish. Numerous seals were seen summing themselves on ice.
 He and Mrs. Manville made the trip from Lake Crescent to Juneau in five hours.

SEA ORGANISMS VITAL ID FISH
Minute PlanktOn to Be Studied
 Origin Of Marine Food

La Jolla, Calf, July 26.-BroVs- interests of the worlds fish supply in years 10 come is one task con- fronting scientists at the Scripps In stitute of Oceanology, the only re- search laboratory of it's kind in the world.
 The study is not SO much the fish themselves, but rather the minute organisms of the ocean, the plank ton, on which all marine life di roctly or indirectly must depend for its existence.
 Fishermen are immediately de- pendent on the discoveries of scien- lists concerning the prevalence or scarcity of these plants and the req son for their existence, in the opin- ion Of Prof W. F. Allen, one of the chief investigators.
 The most prominent of these or canisms," said Dr. Allen. are dia- toms, representing plant life. and copeods, representing the animals.
 We are making an effort to gain 3 good working knowledge of their nUmbcrs"and their successive shifts in quantity to understand the pro- ductivity of fishes in given areas.
 AS the population of the world increases, and the demand for food and other natural products become more eXacting. the assistance we can give in the study of marine or ganisms is going 10 be needed to furnish the margin of safety in es- tImating marine productivity and the trend of good or bad influences on marine life.
 The study is directly comparable to the study of the food supply and needs Of land animals, .on which the world depends for it's supply of meats"
