 COLLISION SUIT
 GETS DISMISSAL

On motion of G. w. Folta, As sistant Attorney and counsel for the United States in the suit brought before the District Court at Ketchikan by Captain A. w. Angellsen of the mail boat Tuscan against the Bureau of Fisheries vessel Penguin, has been dismissed.
 Testimony concerning the liabil- ity of the crash that was responsi- ble for the damages sought in the suit was heard but none concern ing damage, salvage or demurrage. Considering the case as far as it had progressed, the court found that the libelant did not prove negligence on the part of the Pen guin.
 Libelant testimony stated that the vessels were coming at a posi- tion almost head on, starboard passage eminent, and that the whistle of the Tuscan was sound- ed, signaling for port passage. As

 COMING HERE
Will Make Appearance at Capitol Theatre Sat
 urday and Sunday

The University of Washington Glee Club, which will appear here at the Capitol Theatre next Sat- urday and Sunday, March S1 and April 1, received the following comment from Paul Ashford, one of the Northwest's most prominent critics, in a recent issue of The Town Crier of Seattle The num- Der mentioned will be included in the repertoire of this tour to Alaska
 Of an intensely moving beauty and flawlessly rendered was the antiphonal o Filli ct Filiae' by Leisring by the University of Washington Glee Club. This was, to the best of my knowledge. an innovation in local secular choral music. The skillful phrasing and splendid tone of the choir and it's antiphonal quartet made superla- lively moving music of this me dieval devotional fragment. It was worthy of any cathedral choir"
 On the other hand, a distinct departure will be the take-off on a modern opera. This act will take about twelve minutes and will be in three sections, presented in costume. Lloyd Simpson plays the princess; Peter Barden the prince; Wayne Shephard the rival and Director Charles w. Lawrence, himself, the Fairy. The rival stabs the prince and the good Fairy restores him to life.
 Director Lawrence has received considerable commendation since he came to the University of Washington from Oregon. He had charge of the Glee Club on it's last appearance in Alaska several years ago

Spring Days Cause Real Fever to Get Away
 from Sound Stages
By RoBBIN CooNs

HOLLYWOOD. March 27. In this unreel parade:
 Warm spring days-which may turn cold any minute-are making cooped-up stars restless to get out of sound stages. Charlie Far rell has been worse off than most, what with lying in bed all day long, with an hour off for lunch, while Janet Gaynor nursed him through a protracted movie illness. .. But Farrell and James Glea- son have sneaked away once in a while to set in little polo prac- tice. when sets were changing or the day ended earlier than usual. It has to be gentle practice, of course. since polo is an enemy of pictures in production.
 Farrell was explaining that most movie polo players do very well in practice sessions, but can't do their best in front of the grand stand

Terrier FanCier
Breeds Type
By LIZ HUME

Something else again in me
terrier line is the Clydesdale-
originally exhibited as Skye
terriers, and simply more silky"
haired specimens of this va
riety.
Skye terrier enthusiasts have
always regarded them as bad
coated specimens more fitted
for the drawing room than the
cairns, just as fox terrier ex-
perts would regard a soft
coated Wire-haired as a bad fox
terrier.
The silky-coated dog, however,
has his devotees and along in
the eighties a division was made
in the Skye terrier classes, the
hard-coated, long and low va
riety being accorded, by weight
of public opinion, the title of
Skye terrier, to which their char
acter, working fitness and ira
dition gives them more than
moderate claim, while the leg
gier and more silky-coated speci.
mems were given the name Of
Clydesdale or Paisley terriers.
Since then Clydesdale fam
ciers have developed the differ
ences in the two dogs and by
selection have cultivated the
sickness and lighter colors of
the coat.
In all other essentials the
character and conformation of
the two varieties are practically
one and the same. The coat Of
the Clydesdale should be long,
straight and silky. In texture,
color and quality it should re-
semble that of the best York
shire terrier, which has been
largely used in it's manufacture.

Bath luxuries
Please Men
By JULIET SI.ELRY


At last I have found two bath
luxurieS that will give as much
delight to a man of the house
(possibly little more) than to
the woman who buys them.
Every man likes to. have his
back scratched, and if he can't
have it done for him, then he
wants to do it in the most con-
venient way possible. So you
can please him by bringing
home tonight a backscratcher
that costs only a few cents and
is designed to give the maxi
mum of delight for the mini
mum amount of labor! It's a
loofah sponge with two canvas
straps which can be slid over
the hands. with little pulling
from side to side, the back gets
beautifully scratched and stim-
ulated UP and down the spine.
And it's companion piece is a
mitten of loofah which serves
to scratch the rest of the an
atomy, once the back has
enough. You use it as you
would a sponge, rubbing soap
on it, if you wish, and it is
most effective in removing loos-
ened cuticle from the skin and
in exercising the tiny cells.
These two comforts are made
from a natural product which
sheds water almost instantly
and stiffens UP to it's natural

are woven in stripes copying
old English chintz. Another
good slip cover material is cot
ton crash, in solid colors or pat
termed in monotone, with a
finish of braid fringe, or cot
ton chenille. Hard seams
welted with braids and white
pipingS remain in excellent
style.
In floor coverings there is a
vogue for plain-colored carpet,
either light or unusually dark
with floral tints featured.
Heavy rope-twist fringe is used
all around many of the new
rugs and is newer than the
plain border. Sometimes a de-
sign is cut out of one color of
carpeting and fastened into an.
other of contrasting tint.
Checker board effects are also
smart on the floor. And don't
forget, that handsome linoleums
are now used for any room in
the house, especially in new
classic and directoire interiors
where the effect of marble is
wanted. The linoleum in many
cases is custom laid, a design
cut from the one color and set
in a flooring of another color.
A light-colored or beige rug, is
attractive on a dark brown limo
