WORLD PREMIER
 OF COLOR FILM
 HONORS JUNEAU
Alaska's First First Is At Capitol Showing
 ofMusic-Comedy

For two nights this week, Juneau will be world fashion center fol feminine apparel, when the Capitol Theatre screen will flash the first showing anywhere of Walter Wan gers newest color triumph, in the World Premiere of ''Vogues of 1888.
 Securing for Juneau the privilege of being the first to see the new feature is a real achievement, as the picture is by no means just ordinary" Rather, it is a Holly wood gigantic
 Rated three stars in, Liberty Mag azine, the United Artists release was the focus of much movie comment and enthusiasm at the time of it's test preview before the leaders of the motion picture profession, at Graumans Chinese Theatre but a few weeks ago.
 Round after round of applause, applause that seemed to come right from the hearts of the auditors, greeted the film on its test show ing, previous to release. Though some viewers remarked on the length of the picture, 112 minutes, they could select no scenes which they would want to see omitted
 Those in attendance at the World Premier at the Capitol The atre here Friday and Saturday eve nings, the first such initial public showing ever held in Alaska for any motion picture, will see a special, feature musical comedy, starring Warner Baxter and Joan Bennett, supported by "big-name" cast
 Woven into the theme of the fea- ture are shots of next seasons styles for all articles of feminine wear, shown both in closeup and in per- spective; in effect adding first fashion show for 1888 to thor oughly entertaining story theme.
 But, it was the color reproduc- tion that brought true paens of praise from those Hollywood head liners who attended the Grammar preview in mass and in finery to rival that featured on the screen.
 All credited Wanger, the man who advanced color photography to a new place with his Trail of the Lonesome Pine,' with far surpassing all previous achievements with "Vogues of 1938."

In Nanking, one spokesman declared the speech was "gratify- ing to China and showed evidence that America was emerging from isolation and neutrality" Official China made no comment.

Four walks and pair of Giant errors helped in scor- ing.
 Gomez Pulls Out
 Meantime the Yankee southpaw ace, Lefty Gomez, survived one bad inning, the fifth, when the Giants scored their only run and then he went on to win with a six-hit per- formance, his first performance as an opening world series pitcher.

 That Tough Inning
 The bad inning for Gomez is told in the play by play story. This was when consecutive singles were made by Rupple and Mccarthy in the fifth frame and double play grounder by Mancusco brought in the Giants only run. Leiber fol- lowed with two bagger in the same frame but was stranded when Whitehead grounded out. DiMaggi0 Leads Attack

 In commenting on the appoint ment of MT. Bartlett, Chairman Heintzleman said:
 We were very fortunate to obtain the services of MT. Bartlett for this important work.

 Public Planning
 Advance public planning is rap idly coming to be recognized as the proper approach to the question of how to get the most for your mon- ey in dealing with the problems of use and care of resources and con- struction of public works, on which very large sums are now being spent.
