DALHART, Tex, May 16.-Wild waterfowl have found protecting friend in the Texas Panhandle where most persons give thought only to training their guns on the thousands of ducks and geese which literally cover this regions shallow lakes during the fall hunting sea- son.
 The friend is Mrs. R. L. Duke, wife of a Dallam county rancher, who has established a sort of pri- vate preserve on 300 or 400 acres of the ranch on which the Dukes live.
 A small stream follows a circuit GUS route across one corner of the ranch, and here Mrs. Duke permits the birds to congrsgate under her protection.
 No Lcnger Go North
 It has been several years since hunting was permitted on the ref uge and thousands of mallards have taken refuge there. These birds usually go north for the breeding season, but they have begun to remain in the Panhandle through out the year.
 John l.. McCarty, Dalhart pub fisher and amateur photographer who has made numerous waterfowl pictures, estimated the number on the ranch to be between 50,000 and 75,O0O.
 They are So numerous" Me- Carty said, that they have to take turns swim ming in the small stream. The ground is covered with them on both sides of the creek.
 Mrs. Duke, up before daybreak each morning, gives the birds her personal protection until after dark. She seldom leaves the ranch in winter for fear hunters will slip in during her absence.
 Has Their Confidence
 T love those wild birds" she said. They are my children, and my greatest pleasure is in protect ing them"
 alone she can go onto the preserve and walk wihtin a few feet of hun dreds of the ducks, and none will take flight.

''S0 BIC" LAST TIME TONIGHT
 AT CAPITOL
Karloff, of 'Frankenstein Fame, Comes in Terror
 Picture Tomorrow

Beauty and brains are a ccn,oi- nation that can't be beaten in mo- tion pictures"
 This is the dictum Of William A. Wellman, ace director of Holly wood; and he uttered it in con- nection with Barbara Stawyck, star Of So Big which Wellman direct ed and which is at the Capitol Theatre for the last time tonight.
 In So Big based on Edna Fer ber'S memorable novel, Miss Stan wyck plays the part of Selma Peake, the dreaming girl who met life so bravely and bore it's vicls- situdes with such undaunted gal lantry. The actress who played that part" said Wellman, had to use her head-and also her heart. If Warner Bros. had searched the country with a fine-tooth comb they couldn't have found a girl better prepared in every way to play the role than Barbara Stan wyek. The story and the actress were made for each other"
 George Brent is leading man in the picture and others in the cast are Dickie. Moore, Bette Davis Hardia Albright, Mae Madison, AL an Hale, Robert Warwick and Dor othy Peterson.
 Thriller Coming
 The Old Dark House" Univer- sal thriller, with Karloff, who ere ated such a sensation in 'Franken- stein," in an even more grosesque and terrifying makeup than he wore in that picture, as the gi- gantic and brutal servant, opens to- morrow night at the Capitol The ater.
 This tense drama is laid in the sinister setting of an ancient house in the lonely Welsh mountains where a group of travellers caught in violent storm seek refuge fer the night, only to discover that the inhabitants are tainted with in- sanity, and ruled over by Karloff, who becoming inflamed by drink, menaces the entire group.
 It is said to be full of thrills from start to finish and features an ex- ceptional cast of talented stage favorites.

for some executive action. "He's a sort
of a mixed breed. half German police

No time was wasted. Immediately
the Governor got in touch with the
superintendent Of State police, Col. H.
Norman Schwarzkopf. and within a
few minutes more than a hundred
police stations had instructions to be
on the lookout for Adolph's pal.
Then the Governor wrote Adolph
that he had a cocker spaniel and that
''it is great to have dog who is always

may happen soon, that means astro-

Salt Water Pool
Draws Crowd

The lure of salt water bathing
is drawing thousands of Washing
tonians to nearby beaches and
summer resorts in an effort to
find relief from the heat of city
streets.
Many Government employees and
others find that there is ample
time after work to drive down to
Chesapeake Beach to enjoy sew
eral hours bathing in the Sea-
side Pool or in the Chesapeake
Bay before the sun goes down.
No matter how hot and sultry
it is in the city, the cooling bay
breezes and the invigorating salt
water quickly dispel discomfort.
Besides bathing, there are numer-
GUS other diversions for adults
and children. Evenings are de-
lightful at Seaside, with dancing
in the Boardwalk Ballroom to the
music of Bernie Jarboe's harmoni-
Gus jazz band.
Seaside Park is only a 33-mile
trip over the picturesque Honey
suckle Trail through Southern
Maryland, or an hours ride by
train from the District Line.

Doug, Jr. Began His
Career With Senior

Douglas Fairbanks, jr., who is
cast as a young prizefighter in
his latest Warner Brothers pic
ture, THE Life of Jimmy Dolan. -
now at the Earle Theater. is a
native of New York. He was edu-
Gated there as we'll as in Paris,
London, Pasadena, and Los
Angeles, and is an accomplished
painter, sculptor and writer.
He first became interested in
motion pictures through watching
his father perform on the set,
and his first movie work con-
sisted of writing subtitles for a
number of Doug, sr's, silent pic
lures. He started his own career
as an extra and rose rapidly to
Stardom.

And if you think that isn't a
Sizeable chunk to invest in
property at the moment, just
ask a few of the boys who
still own lots in Miami.
But the result, 1 think, has
justified the expenditure. If
the Riviera today isn't one Of
the most beautiful night clubs
in the world, then know nei-
ther night clubs nor the world.
It's going to take Marden a
long time to get back his in
vestment, and as a matter OF
fact, he may never get it back.
But at least he has the salts
faction of knowing that, when
it comes to night clubs, he
owns the most magnificent of
thel-l all.
In most of these spots, the
customer is charged a mini
mum fee of So per person for
his table. Some of them are
operating on the dollar rule
and there are a few that in
vite you in without asking you
to spend any basic amount
whatsoever. But in the end, by
some manner of other, the
checks average the same amount
regardless of the policy.
In other words, it is posi-
BILE today for the young man
to take out his lady friend on
the sum of S.. For that sum
he can enter a beautiful cafe
at 10 o'clock with his girl,
dance until 3 or in the morn
ing to a famous orchestra,
pour White Rock or ginger ale
into his gin, see a complete
musical production that costs
a fortune, rub elbows with the
stars, tip the waiter and the
courtroom girl-and still have
carfare home.
And for the same SIS, what
does he get in the theater? A
couple of seats in the balcony
and then, at II o'clock, his
girl asks him if they aren't go
ing somewhere to dance. So
what course does the young
man choose before he goes out?
Well, you know the answer as
well as I. The theater gets 1t
in the nose again.
Just the same, I am amused
when I think of the difference
that ten years has brought.
Back in 1923 if a young man
tried to get into the Texas
Guinan club with SIS in his
pocket, they wouldn't send for
the head waiter. They'd call
for a doctor,

Western Thrills
at Columbia

We thought they had stopped
the production of wild West
movies, where men are men and
shoot their way to honor and
love.
But apparently we we're wrong,
for here we have Son of the Bor-
der" at Loew's Columbia, with
plenty of shooting on a Western
range, with cowboys and bad men,
stage holdups in the black Of
night and all the thrills of the
Western dramas of pre-talkie
days.
The one redeeming feature of
this film is that the kids will like
it. To adult movie audiences, ac-
customed to the sophisticated
stories which have held sway on
the screen recently, this picture is
just that-a wild West drama.
It's the story, of course, of a
hero of the range, who shoots his
way to everything he wants
always with the best of inten-
tions, naturally. How he gets Gus
tody of the little brother of man
he kills and how he wins the love
of the sweetheart of the man he
kills is all woven into the story
with very little subtlety and
scarcely any better acting.
The major roles are taken by
Tom Keene and Julie Hayden, but
the best performances are given by
Edgar Kennedy, of short reel
comedy fame, and little David
Durand, the little boy with am
bitionS to be a big-shot cowboy.
Charlie Chaplin, in a new edi-
tion of THE Vagabond," with So
called sound effects, carries out
the theme of old-time productions
and shows the one-time famous
pantomime actor with his we'll
known shoes and derby.
The program is completed with
an animated cartoon, Pirates of
the Deep" an educational film
showing life at the bottom of the
sea, and Paramount news.
