CLARK GABLE, HARLOW NOW
 AT CAPITOL
Saratoga" Is Race Track Drama Playing Tonight
 and Tomorrow

Laughs and tears, thrills and TO- nance, mingle in Saratoga" CO., starring Clark Gable and Jean Har- low at the Capitol Theatre tonight and tomorrow. A vivid story of the racetrack, with paddock intrigue, a great race, unusual characters, in which a delicate romance is woven, the play is an ideal one for these particular stars. They hate, fight, and love through an action packed drama in which much whimsical comedy leavens the heavier mo- ments.
 Penned by Anita Loos and Robert Hopkins, who wrote San Francis CO., it is deftly directed by Jack Conway. Never was Miss Harlow lovlier than as the spoiled daughter of the millionaire horseman. Gable provides a virile partner for the ac- tress and is compelling in his role.
 Metro -Goldwyn- Mayer introduc- es a new comedy team in Frank Morgan and Una Merkel in the picture and they are responsible for many a hilarious interlude. Cliff Edwards adds comedy and song. Others in the cast are Walter Pid- geon, George Zucco, Jonathan Hale, Hattie McDaniels, Frankie Darro and Henry Stone.

Many Present at Firemen'S Ball
 Saturday Night
Gene Rhode of Empire Staff Awarded Chev-
 rolet Sedan

Successful in characteristic Fire men fashion, the annual Lincoln's Birthday Ball of the Juneau Volun- teer Fire Department was held Sat- urday night in the Elks ballroom where more than 200 couples gath cred for the event, an outstanding affair of the season.
 With Wesley Barrett's orchestra playing, the dance was marked by the steady arrival of dancers from 10 o'clock on, and continued until after 1:30 a. m. Decorations in sil- yer strands across the ceiling pro- vided one of the most attractive settings yet planned gor Juneau dance, and in keeping with the mo- tive of the evening, pictures of fire men lined the walls. A large picture of Abraham Lincoln, drawn by Lu Liston, was in the spotlight for the evening.
 Gene Rhode, Empire staff mem- Der, Boy Scout Master. and brother of Clarence Rhode, of the Alaska Game Commission, took all honors of the evening, being awarded the Chevrolet sedan car in the raising of fund for unemployed

 Banks and other lending institu- tions will be insured against losses up to 10 percent of the total loans they make under the new Title I program.
 If the loan is made for the pur- pose of building new home, secur- ity will be required in the form of a mortgage or deed of trust covering the property improved.
