 WINS BET IN
 ARMY COMEDY
"23IA Hours Leave Will Begin Showing at
 Capitol Tonight

How a snappy and self-assured young sergeant in a U. s. Army camp in the early days of 1917, dares to be- his mates that he will eat bres kfast with the General, whom he has never seen, and how he wins his vainglorious wager. forms the deliciously farcial background for the screen story "2315 Hours Leave which begins tonight at the Capi- tol Theatre.
 Douglas MacLean produced "23l9 Hours Leave for Grand National from a Mary Roberts Rinehart story in the Saturday Evening Post, which produced gales of laughter, when Thomas H. Ince made it into silent film, with MacLean as the star, seventeen years ago. With the sparkling wit and mirthmaking comedy of Mrs. Rinehart's original lines, which could only be sug- gested in the subtitles of the silent film, faithfully reproduced in the modern version, Grand Nationals "23l2 Hours Leave" is one of the most uproarious films of the year.
 James Ellison plays the part of swanky, young Sergeant Gray, the role created by Douglas MacLean in the silent film. Terry Walker, loaned to Grand National by Para mount, especially for the production, plays the part of the Generals love- ly daughter, who figures important ly in the story, while Paul Harvey is seen in the character of the doughty and choleric General.
 Others in the supporting cast are Morgan Hill, the handsome, young husband of Eff DOrsay, who is making his screen debut in "23 F Hours Leave" Arthur Lake, Wally Maher, Andy Andrews, Pat Glea- son, Murray Alper, John Kelly and Ward Bond.

DAUGHTER OF
 NORTH, BACK
 IN HOMELAND
Movie Headiiner from Pet ersburg Shows in Role
 at Local Playhouse

Coming close to home; not in person, but rather on the speaking screen is Miss Terry Walker, Pet ersburg's most renowned daughter.
 The Alaska Miss who took" the Nations movie capital, Hollywood, is ready to WOW" Capitol Theatre patrons here in Juneau tonight and tomorrow evening with her comedy work in the current feature, '23l4 Hours Leave" a tale of Army days in which she is co-starred with James Ellison.
 Although Terry Walker, piquant, blonde and alluring, lived within the shadows of the Hollywood film studios for nearly ten years. it was not until she was found singing in night club in Miami, Florida, that she was given film contract. And then it came to her by way of the fact that her picture had adorned the cover of The Saturday Evening Post.
 The search for Miss Walker, when movie folk awakened to her possiDil- ities, extended from Alaska to Flor ida and intermediate points, in- cluding New York. It all started when a Paramount studio eXecu- tive saw Miss Walkers picture on the cover of the Saturday Evening Post. Intrigued by the beauty and charm reflected in the subject, he ordered that the original be located and given screen test
 From Norm m n Rockwell, who painted the picture, her name was learned and further inquiries re- vealed that she was born in Pet ersburg, Alaska Imagine the cha grin of the scouts, when they learned that Miss Walker had lived in Hol- lywood ten years and had made repeated and unsuccessful attempts to obtain studio work.
 Miss Walker was taken by her mother from Alaska to Seattle at the age of nine. She had evinced an unusual talent for singing and was given a chance to develop her voice at the Cornish School of Music there. From Seattle she went to Hol- lywood to continue her studies at the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music and Arts.
 Miss Walker is five feet four inches tall, weighs 111H pounds, plays tennis, and ping pong expert ly and enjoys horseback riding. She dances as well as she sings, which is saying lot, and is an accom- plished piano player. Her favorite hobby is crocheting. She likes to cook and create pastries and re- fuses to learn to smoke.
