CHALLENGES JAMESTOWN
TO PROVE CONVENTIONS

A challenge to Jamestown's capital
removal proponents to make public
any expressions of support and en-
couragement which they have re-
ceived in other parts OF the state was
issued here Monday by F. M. Davis,
chairman of the Bismarck capital de-
tense committee, after reading q
statement attributed to Oscar Zim-
norman, head OF Jamestown club.
ITO put it boldly and frankly we
do not believe Mr.. Zimmerman Is be-
ing either truthful or accurate but
that he is attempting, by this means,
to bolster falling cause" Davis said.
THE jamestown Sun has printed, in
large type, a few letters and express
sions Of support for their movement,
mostly from persons in jamestown.
II they have more letters than they
can print they could reduce the size
Of type used and find space for them.
! Groups and organizations In all
parts Of the state have adopted reso-
lutions favoring Bismarck for the cap
itah These have been published here
and elsewhere. It Is noticeable that
not one such resolution has been
printed In Jamestown's newspaper.
We believe that II any such had been
adopted the jamestown removal
group would have published them. We
refuse to believe that they would
make . secret Of these alleged ex-
pressions Of support Il they really ex-
isted."

Il take this STEP" said Murray, to
hastily summoned newspapermen
over Sunday teacups in the governors

JAMESTOWN GROUP

IN CAPITAL BATTLE
Group Seeking Removal Re-
ceives Challenge From
Bismarck Chairman
jamestown, N. d., Feb. 22.-(P}

Jamestown, N. D., Feb. 22.-P-
The campaign to erect the new state
capitol at jamestown instead Of Bis
marck swung into its most active
week Monday, with announcement Of
a general meeting of the jamestown
Chamber of Commerce for Tuesday
evening to consider the matter and
the first meeting Of the newly organ-
lied Jamestown-for-C Capital club for
Thursday night.
Oscar Zimmerman, head of the
jamestown for Capital club an
nounced Monday an intensive cam
paign for members in all parts OF the
state would get under way next Mon
day.
I'VE are asking for memberships
from all parts of the state, thinner
man said, because our movement Is
not, in any sense of the word. a
jamestown project, but Is an effort
to reduce both county and state tax
levies through elimination of hun
dreds of thousands of dollars in use
less travel expenses by members OF
the state legislature, county and state
officials, and employees of the numer-
Gus boards and bureaus Of the state.
"As people have become convinced
that our movement Is not purely sell
fish, but is based upon the greatest
good of the greatest number, we are
receiving support and encouragement
from all sections Of the state and
from all classes of people.
Figures which we republished from
house and senate journals showed
that taxpayers were charged more
than $1,000 than would have been
necessary had the last session been
held at Jamestown-and that Is only
one small item of expense which can
be saved-has changed the entire
complexion OF our camapign. The
probability that we will be successful
is growing with each days effort"

NORMA SHEARER DE s ERTS S SATISFACTION FOR ROMAN TIC ROLE IN IS NJ I l. l N THROUGH"

Norma Shearer has turned her back on her screen past. In "Smilin' Through" her latest Metro Goldwyn Mayer produc- tion which will be shown Sunday at the Poli-Palace theater, Miss Shearer has a role far removed from those which have taken her along the bypaths which lead away from convention.
 Miss Shearer's role in "Smilin' Through" is frankly tinged with sentimental romance. It is com pletely devoid of that sophisti- cation which marked her charac- terizations in Strangers May Kiss" "A Free Soup and Strange Inter lude."
 Tells Poignant Story
 The story abounds in pathos. Ever since Jane Cowl first pre- sented it on the New York stage, it has served as the model by which sentimentality in drama is measured. "As sweet and poignant i as "Smilin' Through" has come to be phrase by which critics point their comparisons.
 In thus turning to wistful TO- nance. Miss Shearer sheds the "women of the world" character for the first time since the peach blossom fragrance of "The Stu dent Prince" in the old days of silent films.

Phil Emerton's Diamonds who have just returned from a long en- gagement at the Steel Pier, Atlan- tic City are to appear at the Casino Ballroom, Lake Compounce on next Sunday night. October End. Led by The Prince of Personal ity" as Leo Steel is so familiarity introduced over station WPG, the Diamonds will undoubtedly be re- ceived by a large and enthusiastic audience. This orchestra is well known in this vicinity and has al- ways been a big drawing card at the lake. Their method of enter tainment is quite out of the or- dinary and no doubt they will have a new Bag of Tricks" to unfold next Sunday night.
 The management is pleased to announce at this time that the Casino Ballroom will be enclosed and equipped with steam heat, to permit it's operation throughout the winter. Present plans are to continue with the dances Sunday nights in the ballroom the same as in the past, featuring travelling name bands. Preparations which have already begun will in no way interfere with the present Sunday night program.
 An announcement will soon be forth coming regarding a new night club which will be in operation at Compounce during the week. The date of the formal opening and the future plans of this club will be given out by the press in few days

SEVEN ACTS OF BROADWAY HEADLINE VAUDEVILLE AND THE LAST MILE AT STRAND STARTING TODAY.

Waterbury is to be treated to another of Warner Brothers strand theater's great vaudeville shows today tomorrow and Sunday.
 Seven big acts direct from Broadway's top price vaudeville theaters will grace the Strand stage. A program that, taken for it's face value, promises to excel the splendid one presented last week.
 Manager Julia M. Smith has personally selected the acts that are to appear on this and subse- uuent bills at the Strand and her efforts thus far have apparently received the hearty approval Of local theatregoers. Capacity houses greeted the initial program last week and the management looks for a duplication of this happy scene again this weekend.
 The feature picture on this pro- gram, "The Last Mile" is the screen adaptation of last seasons tremendor stage success Of the same title.
 In it's picture form, "The Last Mile" is faithful reproduction of the play, with it's action con- fined almost entirely within the four walls of prison death house, and it's actors the inhabitants of the cells and their guards.
 The travail of the doomed men within the prison death house walls the character delineations and finally, the sensational jail break engineered by Killer Mears, makes one of the most re- lentlessly thrilling and dramtic pictures of the year.
 Howard Phillips as Walters, the innocent youth convicted on cir cumstantial evidence; Preston Eos ter as Killer" Mears; George E. Stone, the first of the prisoners to go to the death chair during the picture; Daniel Haynes as sonny" Jackson, the powerful, singing colored man, and Al Hill, Alan Roscoe, Paul Fix as the remainder of the prisoners, all give excellent portrayals of their different char acters.
 Frank Sheridan, as the warden, Ralph Theodore, Jack Kennedy, Albert J. Smith, William Scott and Kenneth Macdonald. as jailers and guards, and Alec B. Francis and Edward van Sloan, as priest and rabbi, also swell the cast to inter- esting proportions.

BACHELOR HAS
 GAME RESERVE

Mt. Pleasant, Mich. GU. P.)-A 64-year-old bachelor, who loves nature and wild animals, is slow ly but surely building up Michi- sans first one-man private game reserve.
 Jack Spike" Horn" Myers al- ready has two elk, two bears, a buffalo and a fish hatchery on his 1,000-acre tract. Anr, he says, there is room for good many more animals.
 The log cabin on his property. the enclosures for the animals and the hatchery Myers built himself. He built a stockade of heacy tim- bers for the bison pen after Grand Rapids had presented him with the animal. The bison has es- capped twice. The elk roam about a fenced wood lot several acres in size.
 Myers. who wears a heavy beard, and tramps the woods in leather costume most of the time, was not always a woods threshinug machine, and later manufactured 8 tractor adapted to logging purposes. A sugar beet litter developed by him is still used on many Michigan farms.

"DR xr CONCLUDES ENGAGE MENT AT WARNER STATE TO-NIGHT; EDMUND LOWE AND VICTOR McLAGLEN IN "GUILTY AS HE'LL" TO-MOR- ROW

"Dr x" one of the seasons best thrillers, filmed entirely in Techni- color, concludes it's engagement at Warmers State tonight. The cast is headed by Lee Tracy, Fay Wray, Lionel Atwill and a distinguished company of supporting players.
 Tomorrow brings Guilty As Hell" with Edmund Lowe and Vic tor McLaglen, that pair of irascible battling buddies who rocked the nation with laughter in "The Cock Eyed World"
 McLaglen's detective and Lowe is a newspaper reporter. There is dirty work a foot and McLaglen is detailed to snare the culprit. Lowe obligingly details himself to aid McLaglen and that's where the fun begins.
 Of course there's dame in the story and that's where the bud dies' arrive at the parting of the ways.
 The story has been cleverly writ ten to bring out the comedy situa- tions; to allow Lowe and McLaglen to wise-cracks at each other to battle over "Dames" and to dem- onstrate again all of the qualities that made them famous in What Price Glory?" and "The Cock-Eyed World".
 They are ably supported by Richard Arlen, Adrienne Ames and Ralph Ince.
 Another special surrounding program of real merit, one that provides screen entertainment of the highest order, has been booked to accompany the feature presen- tation.
