Work has been begun on the driving of piiing at Eagle River in order to protect the suspension bridge erected a year ago by the United States Forest Service, ac- cording to Wellman Holbrook, As- sistant Regional Forester. who with Charles A. Flory. Regional Forester, made an inspection of the work bcinga done by EcW crews on the highway yesterday
 A crew of twelve men under Foreman Al Tilson has been work ing on the flood control project at Eagle River for the last two weeks. It has been decided that six rows of piiing, driven about six feet apart and filled between with brush, will be the best means of forcing the river course away from the bridge.
 Work is also progressing rapidly on the construction of the 1.000- yard rifle ranae which is being done by the ECw crew at Menden- hall Lake. Everything is in readi- ness for the pouring of concrete as soon as the weather is warm enough, MT. Holbrook said.

COMEDY FARCE BRINGS LAUGHS
 TO AUDIENCES
Here Comes the Groom Now at Capitol Is Filled
 with Fun Merriment

Do you remember the unhappy looking kid. with the wiggly eye brows and the plaintive stare who made such a comedy hit in Sit ting Pretty?" We'll, he's here again, Jack Haley. the one and only, speeding throug h the hilarious scenes of Paramount's newest com edy farce, Here Comes the Groom" which opened at the Capi- tol Theatre last night.
 Just as gay and refreshing as the spring season, this cleverly written, expertly directed farce which com pines piccolo players, burglars, crooners and family pearls, and achieves laughs and a gorgeous time for all, projects Jack Haley to stardom.
 AS you might suspect, the cen tral character of the plot is Haley, who becomes an extremely inept burglar to please his "sweetie' Isa- bel Jewell. A bungled attempt at petty larceny lands him hatless, pantless and with just an overcoat to cover him. in the pullman suite of a deserted bride, Patricia Ellis.
 To save her face, Miss Ellis takes Jack home with her and introduces him to her aunt as her husband,-- a radio crooner. From then on Jack has to duck the aunt who wants to hear him croon.
 To complicate matters further, Miss Ellis real sweetheart, Neil Hamilton, and Miss Jewell turn up. She's pretending to be maid so that she can steal the family pearls. Then the crooner makes his entrance and the merry mix up that follows serves to re-dis- tribute the loving couples so that everybody is happy again and the crooner gets his just desserts-the air!

STUART ERWIN IS STARRED IN
 COLISEUM FILM
Bachelor Bait Hilarious Farce of Matrimon-
 ial Agency

The earth-old institution of mar riage receives a brand new treat ment via the cinema.
 Bachelor Bait is the comedy hit which gives the marriage insti- tuition rollicking new deal, cut entirely from a laugh deck. conn ing to the Coliseum Theatre to- night, with Stuart Erwin, Pert Kelton, "Skeets' Gallagher and Rochelle Hudson in prominent roles.
 Scenarized by the exc m d V star, Glenn Tyron, Bachelor Bait" concerns the operations of matri- noninl agency. where five dollars rates the ideal mate for the client. With laugh, provoking sidelights, Romance, Inc, introduces anxious to-be bridegrcoms to eager-to-be brides, and, scientifically, makes good marital material from poor.
 The plots complications are said to De, as unique as the locale of Bachelor Bait Erwin's code of authority for Romance, Inc, stipu- latcs that the client must be pleas ed. Accordingly, he sacrifices his ideal as a mate to a wealthy oil man. A designing gold digger learns of the millionaire prospect through an alliance with Erwin's assistant, and the towns biggest racketeer muscles in on the bureau. The results are screamingly funny.
 Bachelor Bait" was produced by RKO-Radio, from an adaptation of Victor and Edward Halperin's screen story. George Stevens direct ed, with Berton Churchill. Grady Sutton and Clarence Wilson in ether supporting roles.
