SENIOR DINNER LAST EVENING
 GREAT SUCCESS

Thirty-six members of the Sen for Class, which is graduating on Wednesday from the Juneau High School, were entertained at de- lightful dinner, cooked and served by their mothers at the Scottish Rite Temple last evening.
 The banquet hall was beautifully decorated in the class colors, purple and gold, and the original place cards were a comic combination of the head of the student, cut from the Totem, pasted to figures cut from magazine ads and illustra- tions. Each Senior was requested to give a talk regarding his or her place card.
 Between the courses the Seniors danced in the banquet hall and sev- eral st u d e nj $ made interesting talks, among them were, Ted Huns bedt, Class President; George Kar- abslnikoff, President of the Stu dent Body, and voted most popu- lar boy in school; Eleanor Mize, Secretary of the Student Body, and voted the most popular girl in the class.
 Following the dinner the merry crowd danced in the ballroom for several hours.

POPPY SALES BRISK
 ON JUNEAU STREETS

Today is Poppy Day, and youth ful saleswomen and men have seen to it that everyone on the streets of Juneau is wearing one of the gayly colored posies in his or her lapel, doing their bit to aid the disabled veterans who supply the poppies to be sold each year.
 Starting early in the morning, girls and boys, working for the American Legion Auxiliary, which sponsors Poppy Day, were out, together with auxiliary members, and covered the town, so that everywhere one looked, someone stood with an armful of the pop pies for sale.
 As usual, when for worthy cause, the sales were brisk in Ju- neau and men, women and children are wearing poppies today.

REALISM THEME OF C0LISEUM'S
 FEATURE FILM
Carole Lombard and Pat O'Brien Starred in "Vir-
 tue Tonight, Sunday

Virtue featuring the beauteous Carole Lombard and the virile Pat O'Brien, which will be shown at the Coliseum Theatre tonight and Sunday, is a heart-warming story of two young people who despite the moral tone of the age in which they live, strive to enjoy the ideal romance of a possibly more roman tic age.
 The Columbia picture of New York and two young New Workers possessed of neither fame nor for tune-two young people who have only Love, is stirring realism. It contains the actual situations of a girl willing to be good but driven to desperate plights; the situa- tions confronting a clean-minded boy who meeting the realities of the kaleidescopic life of Manhat- tan battles to keep his Illusions. The picture from the novel by Ethel Hill, adapted to the screen by Robert Riskin, was directed by Edward BuzzeI
 To Jimmy driving taxi about New York, Mae, in appearance the smartly dressed, bright-eyed stem ographer, is his ideal. Mae is not a private secretary or a stenograph- CT, but easy living has not yet left it's mark on her. To her Jimmy is man capable of looking after "a girl-the ideal mate in a city where a girl alone is very easily stamped questionable. Though she must marry quickly if she is to lsidsstep the law, Mae, the girl, does so because she loves Jimmy from the bottom of her heart.
 Though the story of Virtue starts before the young people meet each other at all, their mar riage is not the happy ending looked for in most films. The drama in the lives of Mae and Jimmy really commences post-haste upon their marriage It is from the marriage night that the story progresses speedily.

FAIRBANKS, JR. IS STARRED IN
 CAPITOL FILM
M ary Brian Suppo rts Young Doug in Tough
 to Be f amous'

The sinking of a submarine with all men on board, and the subse- quent rescue of the crew, one of the most exciting and novel epi- Sodes ever photographed for the movies, is shown in full detail in Douglas Fairbanks, Jr's latest star ring film for First National Pic lures, Its Tough to Be Famous, ? which comes to the Capitol theatre tomorrow.
 Fairbanks, portraying the young commanding officer of the submar- inc, is trapped with his men after the undersea boat has been ram med and sunk in only eighty feet of water. Doug is able to save his men by shooting them to the sur face through the torpedo tubes. The men are shown as they shoot to the surface of the water, where rescue ships and divers are waiting. With no one left to release him through the torpedo tube, Doug prepares for the lingering death which follows exhaustion of oxy- gen in the submarine. His rescue by divers when he has lapsed into inconsistencies provides further thrills for Its Tough to Be Fa- nous"
 After tha rescue the star is hail. ed as national hero, even before he regains consciousness on the fleets flagship. His trials and trib- ulationss continue from that point on, through his marriage and sub- sequent loss to all rights to pri- vacy. His life becomes a series of banquets and parties in his honor, all of which arouse his desire to get away from it all"
 Supporting Fairbanks, Jr., in this story of a young national hero is large cast including Mary Brian, Lillian Bond, Oscar Apfel, Walter Catlett, Emma Dunn and David Landau. Alfred E. Green, of Dis raeli" and Union Depot fame, di- rected Its Tough to Be Famous"
 Come On Danger" a western, starring Tom Keene, with news reel and a selected group of shorts will be shown at the Capitol to- night for the last time.
