SHEPARD KILLS
 GIANT GRIZZLY

H. R. Shepard, City Clerk and Magistrate, and sportsman of the first water, joined the ranks of big game hunters Monday when he toppled over a giant grizzly bear on the east shore of Admiralty Island in the vicinity of Twin Points. Rumors current on the streets today that the brute was in a trap were indignantly denied by MT. Shepard and his hunting companions.
 In the party were; MT. Shepard, R. l.. Bernard, c. B. Rice, D, Wey- and, .Axel Koski, Arnot Hendrick- son, and J. Tucker. They made the trip on the Hyperian, Capt. Os- car Oberg. Capt. Oberg estimated the bear weighed at least l,200 pounds.
 The pelt was not in good con- dition. A big lump on one shoulder indicated the brute had received an injury in a fight sometime before but the wound was completely heal ed. MT. Shepard brought the paws home as trophies of his prowess.

BILLIE DOVE IS AT
 PALACE LAST TIMES

Billie Dove has often been called the most beautiful girl on the screen.
 Such a reputation usually de- trats from the histiionic ability of an actress and in past years this may have been true of Miss Dove But in her last few First National staring vehicles, critics have come to rsalize more and more that Miss Dove has given the motion picture screen something beside her cameo like beauty-that she is a finished actress of skill and finesse, and that her characterizations are be- coming more and more vivid and compelling.
 Her latest stellar vehicle, "The Man and the Moment First Ma tional picture, is at the Palace for the last two times tonight.
 This time Miss Dove appears in an American story as typical American girl. The story, by Eli nor Glyn, has all the torrid feel ings aAd passions that Mime. Glyn usuaily bestows upon her literary effotts yet it has an unusually novd and interesting plot. Rod La Rocaue is leading man.

Pioneer Airways s Brings Stinson Cabin Monoplane
 Here for Station

The entry of nel, aerial navlga- tion company Pioneer Airways- into the Juneau field was made known today by Roy Jones, general manager of the firm, who arrived here today on the Northbird, one of the two ships now operated by it, piloted by Jim Dodson. The sec- ond plane, the Seabird, is now at Sitka and was expected to have flown here today.
 One of these planes, probably the Seabird, will be stationed per- manently in Juneau" Mir. Jones said this morning We had ex- pected to come here es..lier this summer, but owing to the press Of business in Ketchikan, were unable to release the necessary ship" The company is constructing a hangar at Ketchikan now, and will build a second one here, but prob ably not before next spring we are in this field to remain and are offering to the public dependable planes and expert flyers" said MT. Jones, who was himself one of the first Alaskan pilots.
 Pilot Dodson was until recently a U. s. Navy pilot and operated off the airplane carrier Lexington for some time. Jerry Smith, who is pilot of the Seabird, is one of the best known fliers on the Pacific Coast"
 The two planes are identical in type. They are four-place Stinson cabin monoplanes powered with 210 horsepower motors. They have a wing spread of AZ icet. They op- crate at 100 miles per hour for nor nal cruising and have top speed of 130 miles. The cabins are up- holstered in gray, and are so con- structed as to give passengers the best possible visibility. The walls of the cabine are sound-proofed. Passengers can easily converse in ordinary tones. Both ships are fin ished in black and orange.
 The Northbird left Ketchikan Monday morning and went to Wrangell where it took a number of passengers up, and made trip up the Stikine River. It proceeded from there to Tenakee where it hoped to meet the Seabird, but that ship had already hopped to Sitka. It came here this morning from Tenakee. MT. Jones expected to leave late this afternoon for Ket- chikan.
