HILARIOUS HIT
FEATURED ON
LOCAL screen
True 10 the Army" Now
Playing at 10Th
Century

Paramount offered fun in large
quantities to the audience at the
Goth Century Theatre last night
when its new comedy riot, True TO
the Army" bowed into town.
Featuring a four-star cast-Judy
Canova, Allan Jones, Ann Miller,
Jerry Colonna-every one a star en-
tertainer, True to the Army" in
cludes laugh-provoking situations,
gay music and sensational dancing
among its assets.
The story concerns the plight of
Judy Canova, tight-rope walker,
who has to hide from gangsters be-
cause she happened to see them kill
a man. She goes to her sweetheart,
Jerry Colonna, a pigeon trainer in a
nearby army camp. There Colonna
and Allan Jones cut her hair, put a
uniform on her and try to pass her
off as one of the boys. Hilarity hits
a new high when poor Judy is order
ed to the camp hospital for a
medical examination.
The picture is riot of Colonna
quips and Canova clowning. 1t is
highly recommended for all those
in favor of good oldfashioned belly
laughs.

Regulations will be made first
with the idea of protecting resource

In districts where runs are large

AS Panama Hattie, a night club

FISH PRICES

No decrease from prices of fresh
fish as set up in MPR Number Alb,
effective July l3, is contemplated
by the Fish Division of the Office
of Price Administration. This is
pointed out in Geographic advices
received from the national office by
the Office of Price Administration
here.
If fishermen can establish actual
hardship on the prices set by MPR
4l8, an application for adjustment
in prices will be given considera-
ton. However, it must clearly APP
pear that such hardship is actu-
ally incurred from operation under
the new price schedule. The fact
that inflated prices which fisher
men were receiving early this sea-
son have been lowered will not be
considered grounds for adjustment.
Principal opposition in Alaska to
the specific price schedules came
from the sable fishermen who have
protested both to the local OPA Of
flee and the Governor, and who
have declared they will not fish
at the prices established. The Sc
prices, they say, represent drastic
cut for them. Actually, the Office
.of Price Administration saws. the
prices established for sable fish
are almost 80 percent in excess of
those paid in 1912, and if fish are
wages the prices represent an in
crease in those wages almost twice
as great as the Little Steel Formula
permits wage earners to have.

cause he is SO heavily engaged on
