BLUE AND
 GOLD" SHOWING
 NOW AT CAPITOL
R om a antic Navy Story Is Portrayed in New
 Picture

Timely as the annual choice Of an All-American eleven, yet en- doWed with romance as old as time, Navy Blue and Gold" has brought to the screen of the Capitol Theatre a thrilling story of love and foot ball at the Annapolis Academy.
 The story presents three mid shipmen from different stations in life, who are drawn together at the Academy on the gridiron and as classmates. Young is a cynic With no intention of remaining in the service. Stewart is up from a bat tleship, trying for a commission Brown is scion of wealth, With a pretty sister, player by Miss Rice.
 Stewart is involved in scandal when it is learned that he enrolled under an assumed name, owing to the fact that his father, a navy officer had been cashiered out of the service. He clears his fathers name in a dramatic scene and is reinstated. Navy defeats Army as a result and the gob from the fleet wins the girl.
 Navy Blue and Gold' is ace en- tertainment for all types of movie patrons because it combines TO- nance and drama with football and fighting in a story as timely as the latest gridiron scores.

 STARTS FOURTH

Juneau's Fourth celebration start- ed off musically last Saturday night when the Juneau City Band, under the baton of A. M.

 The program was a varied one, consisting of marches, foXtrots, overtures, waltzes, a patriotic pot pourri, containing wellknown airs; medleys and novelty numbers, end ing with the National Anthem. The Star Spangled Banner" when all listeners either stood at salute or doffed their hats.
 Tourists as well as Gastineau channelites appreciated the concert and all were thoroughly surprised that Juneau has such a fine musi- cal organization that could put over so successfully the wide-ranged pro- gram.
 The band made Its second ap- pearance of the Fourth by leading the parade and being generous with marches, playing almost continu- ously from the start to Recreation Park. Seated in the graudstand during the patriotic exercises the band also played several marches and an overture.

BILLY M'CANN WAL.L.OPS JACKS
 IN TWO ROUNDS
Tacoman Has Pretty Dance and Black Powder
 Boxing Gloves

A pint-sized edition of a little boy with dynamite in his gloves was the highlight of the show Sun- day night at the Elks Hall when the Juneau Athletic Club staged 28 rounds of boxing for the Fourth of July crowd
 The little man with the wallop was the much-t -touted but little ex- pected of Billy McCann, of Tacoma, the man who broke Freddie Steele s jaw and headlined the card Sunday night. McCann took his opponent, Billy Jacks, a dangerous and clever fighter for these parts, in two quick rounds.
 In the first round, only two punches of any note were thrown. McCann threw them both from the back trenches with low trajectory and high power, shooting tw straight and hard rights to Jacks body.
 When the second round opened both fighters felt they had tested each other, and came into closer range. There was fast, harmless in- terchange, McCann putting up a continuous dance and Jacks pivot ing on the left foot cautiously.
 Suddenly, as the crowd was set ting down to watch two clever boxers wait each other out, McCann brought up a lightning left cross that was a knockout blow in itself but as Jacks fell backwards toward the canvas, McCann caught him again on the way down with ter rife right smash that slammed the Jacks boy back so hard through the ropes that his head rapped the board outfield of the ring and put him out solidly.
 The bell saved Jacks temporarily, but the combination of two terrible blows and the bump on the back of the head was so dazing to him that
The Daily Alaska empire., 1938-07-05

referee Marty Floss stopped the fight and gave McCann a victory.
 McCann might have been jeered because he was an outsider and a "big shot" He has a lot of respect coming his way, now, and II he fights here again, matchmakers Will have to find a good man to put up against him-and the crovrd will be out.
 For the est of the card, there were six other well-matched bouts. In the six-round semi-final, Conny Luft, showing veteran ring talent, slow, but smart, scored a technical win over Haida boy Bobby Kerr.
 For the first five of the six rounds, Kerr might have had an edge on Luft, definitely fighting better battle, more open and throw ing more punches, but in the sixth frame. Kerr ran into few clever infighting uppercuts that dazed him and opened his guard. Luft got technical knockout.
 In the special event, Johnny Trambitas and Danny Diaz fought a dandy swapping battle. Dlaz gave the fight to Trambitas by kneeling out a referees count.
 In the lightweight prelims, Dave Howard and Austin Brown fought head punching four rounds for a draw.
 In the 115-pound section of the prelims, Bob Firby slapped Ken Traitor to the canvas four times in three rounds and got technical knockout when Traitor sunk to the canvas, hanging on to the ropes tine last tsne down.
 Much can be said for the Traf- ton boys gameness, though. He per- sistently ran wide open into Firby's wild rights, took it on the kisser and came back for more.
 When Peter Jacks fought Charlie Sumdum, he got a four-round de- cision carrying the fight and landing more "haymakerS' than the other lad.
 Opening bout of the evening was between Pete Howard and Dave An drews and was popular draw, a wide open, fast, swingin' for blood four rounds.
 Referee of the prelims was once worlds lightweight crown conten- der, Eddie (Roberts) Powers, Juneau painter.
 Matchmaker Charlie Hardy put on a good card with what talent Juneau had to offer, and there were no one-sided fights. He promised fans from the ring that the next smoker would show some Outsiders fighting on top rungs. l But adding it all again, Billy Mo Cam showed something in ring fighting that Juneau has not seen for long time, and it is hoped he will be matched again. Lee Rox ably assisted Hardy in putting over the smoker.

THE BARRIER"
 SEEN TONIGHT
 FOR LAST TIME
Stirring Action Seen in Rex Beach's North Woods
 Film at Coliseum

Spread across a background of the breath taking scenic splendor of the great North Woods, the love story of a dashing army officer and simple woods girl came to the screen of the Coliseum Theatre when "The Barrier" picturization of the famous novel by Rex Beach, opened there, with a cast of film favorites headed by Leo Carrillo, Jean Parker, James Ellison, Otto Kruger, Robert Barrat, Andy Clyde and Sara Haden.
 The action of the picture is built around the love story of James FL lison and Jean Parker. Miss Parker is the daughter of Robert Barrat who runs trading post with his Indian wife Sara Haden). Ellison is the lieutenant in charge of an Army post in the same district. The two meet and fall in love, although both of them are afraid that Miss Parker's Indian blood will prevent their marriage.
 Leo Carrillo creates one of the most striking characterizations of his long list of successful roles in the part of Poleon, the French Can- adian trapper. His charm and vi- tality make the "Canuck" seem a living person. Jean Parker, who was so successful in another great out door picture, "Sequoia," tops all her previous performances in "The Barrier"

 The soldiers, under command of Major Kirby Green, marched in green raincoats, arms at shoulder, and the colors sheathed from the weather.
 The Haida men, snappy in their blue and white, under Ensign Glenn Rollins, followed the soldiers in the line and showed smooth maneuver- ing that spoke of fine training.

Lu- cas, Charles Carter, President of the Chamber of Commerce; former Gov. Thomas Riggs, former Gov George A. Parks, Noel J.

 Frank Metcalf and the Elks Club Safety Drive horror car" provided the clown spirit, lurching and sway ing with lenders swinging in the breeze, a skeleton riding with the driver, and two ketchup splattered and bandaged dummy victims" of drunken driving on the tail gate Signs explained the skeleton, wrecked lenders and bandaged hitch hikers as results of going through stop lights, driving while drunk and generally endangering the public with reckless driving
 A Viking craft, the entry of the Sons of Norway, showed originality and good workmanship, it's full car- go and complete rigging sailing into first place on a sea of wild flowers and greens.
 The Carpenters Union aroused favorable comment by building a miniature house as they moved along, workmen pounding nails and saving lumber
 There were decorated bicycles and costumed children, there was comic element, there was color, there were soldiers and sailors, there was fine music from the Juneau City Band, and there were more dignitaries in the parade than ever before.
 It was good parade.
