CATCH, july Is

z. T. Scovill, who has fished IN
Southeast Alaska for the last ten
years, claims the honor of bring
ing the largest single days catch
ever recorded by a one-man troller
boat when he caught 2103 pounds
of silvers and 101 pounds Of kings
on July Is off Cape Cross. This
fish was sold to the Alaska Coast
FisherieG.
Scoviil was unable to locate a
fishing partner this year but, in
spite of having lost his right hand
in a machine accident several years
ago, handles his own boat, does his
own repair work and has had a
successful fishing season. Mr.. SEQ
will brought his 35-foot troller boat
Xxi into Juneau for repair work
and will be in the city for several
days
The season at Cape Cross and
Cape Edgecomb has been good this
year and present indications are
that there will be a good run of
silvers in inside waters during the
remainder of the season, he said.

HENRY ALDRlCH IN
new SCREEN PLAY
AT 10Th CENTURY
Jim LYdon Starred as Am
eri1d's Bad Boy in
Film Here Now

A new Henry Aldrich burst upon
the screen at the Goth Century
Theatre last night when Jimmy
Lydon made his debut in the title
role of Paramount's justly popular
Aldrich Family series. Burst is the
word for it. This new Henry, Jackie
Cocper's successor in the part, has
more spring and bounce to him than
bucking broncho-and just about
as much kick.
The film was Henry Aldrich for
President" the third of the Para
mount Aldrich series which brings
the famous radio family to movie
theatres. Most of us were capitivated
by the first two. What a Life" and
Life With Henry" This one, in
which the irrepressible Henry runs
for president of the student body at
Centerville High School with hilar-
ious results, surpasses its predeces-
sors. This is no reflection on Jackie
Cooper, who was top-notch Henry,
but it does mean that Paramount
has struck its stride in making this
type of film and has turned out a
swiftly paced comedy that hasn't a
moments lag.
In the excellent cast are June
Preisser, Mary Anderson. John Litel
Dorothy Peterson, Martha O'Discoll
Vaughan Chaser, Rod Cameron,
/ Kenneth Howell, Lucien Littlefield
and Irving Bacon. The picture was
produced by Sol C. Siegel and di-
rected by Hugh Bennett from an

WeIIes Film Featured
in Run Here

For some time film patrons here
have waited for the local showing
of Orson Welles' much discussed
first Mercury production for RKO
Radio, Citizen Kaane." The pic
ture, co-authored, produced and
directed by Welles, with himself in
the title role is now on the Capitol
Theatre screen, as regular re-
lease, following Notwithstanding
triumph in the nations great cities
at advanced roadshow prices
AS the title implies, the film
deals with the career of an Ameri-
can citizen, one Charles Foster
Kane, a man obsessed by lust
for power over life, money and
love. The fate of many people,
his owr large fortune, and the
hearts of two beautiful women are
the objects of his conquest in the
story, which is filled with a wealth
of exciting incidents. Through a
radically new technique of story
telling, the brilliant and often
clashing characterizations of Kane
himself are seen through the
different eyes of those who knew
him, loved him, hated him during
his years OF creating a vast, one
man empire.
Welles tackled a difficult job in
bringing to the screen a complete
portrait OF a colorful parsonage.
But, by eiguratively circling around
and around the central character of
Kane. each time revealing a new
aspect Of the man and his ideas
and ideals, Welles presents a clear
cut picture of the impulsive, ruth
less, charming, capricious individual
he has chosen to describe The re-
suit is rated cinematic triumph
especially in the portrayal of Kane's
relations with his two wives, both
of whom loved him, and both of
whom left him because he would
not surrender to love except on his
own TENS.
