pal players.
The Great Waltz was origI-
nally produced by Max Gordon IN
New York on Sept. Z5, 1884, and
remained on Broadway for a tu!l
season and was acclaimed the
musical hit of that theatrical
year
The story Of The Great Waltz
follows closely the professional
rivalry between Johann Strauss
Sr.. the waltz king, and his
talented son, Johann Jr, the latter
being the composer of the hardest
of all waltz melodies the world
has ever known "On the Beauti-
ful Danube The clash between
father and son, because of the
lattCrs love of music, his aUhl-
tionS as a composer and his love
for Threasa, provide this work
with a basic foundation of story
based on fact.

frisco SAL
Fine At Fox

ALTHOUGH FRISCO SAL"
falls in the regular category of
Barbary Coast dramas, this movie
which opened on the Fox screen
yesterday has several redeeming
features
First Of an. II has an excellent
cast and is, for this type OF thing,
particularly we'll directed.
While Susanna Foster isn't eXr
actly our idea OF a fast beauty
OF The period, she appears in a
much more exotic light than has
been shed on her before.
Though she IS supposed 10 be
a nice Girl working in low San
Francisco saloon IN order 10 get
evidence regarding her brothers
TuuTGCr, she gives out with more
glamour and less Of the Girl
Scout than she has done in pre-
ViouS pictures.
Turhan Bey looks sinister
enough for the part of the rich
gambler, who isn't guilty at all,
but il is due 10 the supporting
roles. mainly, that Frisco SAL
comes out OF the usual rut,
our favorite, Collette Lyons,
PLAYS a music hall entertainer
with the kind of ZeSt that the
movies need This is the first time
we've seen her on the screen and
her antics are Just funny in cellu-
loid as they ever were on the
stage.
Alan Curtis and Thomas Gomez
are among the chief supporting
characters i'm this particular
piece of hawdy fiction.-C.G.

By the Way
beth BLAINE.

Head Director of the volun-
teers who serve at the United
Nations Service Center is pretty
prematurely white-haired Mrs.
James Lands, wife of the Dean
of the Harvard Law School and
former head of the OCD.
A full-time volunteer herself,
Mrs. Lands once served at the
center's midnight to morning
shift. She edits the Flags
Abreast" bulletin of the center;
directs the schedules and assign
ments of $50 to 400 volunteers a
week who work at the center, and
is credited with having started
its very successful library, which,
unlike most Libraries, gives its
books to any serviceman for the
asking. The only request made
is that he in turn give it to an
other serviceman after he has
read it.
In the year and half that the
United Nations Service Center
has been in operation it has
served 100000 service people.
Twenty-four hours a day it is
open to them. Imagine what it
means to serviceman to know
that at any hour of the day or
night he can go to the center
and find intelligent, alert, wide
awake people at his service.
Many of the night volunteers
are working girls who give one
night week to working at
the center. Some have been
there ever since it opened, as
has Mrs. Lands. How the
servicemen feel about what is
being done for them can be
summed up in the words of a
young sailor who recently visited
the center and said, "At first
thought this was a racket. He'll
lady, I've got to do my job, but
you people don't have to do
this. They tell me these are
volunteers who stay up all night
just to see that we guys get a
break - no pay, no sleep, no
nothing.
If you'd like to help the splen-
did work of the center-call
National 5000 and volunteer your
services. Or, if you'd like to add
to the library, they still need
magazines and books. And by
the way, their first contribution
was Is beautifully chosen brand
new books from a young service
man who had bought them out
of his own money-he inclosed a
simple card with them from

MRS. (RITTENDEN H0N0RED GUEST,
 SCOUT COUNCIL

Girl Scouting, it's aims and pur- poses, problems and achievements, were outlined in a most inspiring talk by Mrs. Albert Crittenden, Field Representative of Girl Scouts, at a luncheon yesterday given in her honor in the Iris Room of the Bar anof Hotel.
 To the Girl Scout Council and Troop Committee members, and Troop Leaders, Mrs. Crittenden, who is the first representative of the Na- tional Council to have visited Alaska, explained the relationship between the national and local organizations, and told of the many ways the na- tional organization can be of assis- tance to the local units.
 Realizing the great importance of Girl Scout training, an effort to in- crease the membership, thereby reaching as many girls as possible has been made in recent years, with the result that now more than 100000 girls are enrolled in the Scouting program.
 A round-table discussion followed Mrs. Crittenden's talk, with every one present invited to take part.
 Mrs. Crittenden has been holding conferences with Council members and Leaders during her brief stay in Juneau. She left today for Fair banks, where she expects to be un- til about the first of September, when she will return to Juneau.

 BILL AT CAPITOL

Wally Beery's millions of fans and that means you-will be utterly delighted with his newest starring film, "Barbary Coast Gent,p which Metro Goldwyn Mayer presented last night at the Capitol and which is showing again tonight.
 A comedy drama of San Francis co.'s Barbary Coast and of the early Nevada gold-coast days, "Barbary Coast Gent" is fast, action packed and. in brief, thoroughly delightful and good for whatever ails you.
 Beery plays Honest Plush Brannon -the honest" being his own desig- nationals knavish and gun-totin' a rascal as he ever played. Opposite him, to make perfect comedy team, is lovely Binnie Barnes, who as Lil Danish, possesses an acid tongue and a soft spot in her heart for Brannon.
 Despite all of Lil's pleading to marry him, Plush insists he must be success first-without of course, resorting to work. After shooting duel with his old partner, played by John Carradine, Brannon leaves town and winds up in Gold Town, Nevada, where the citizenrys im- pression that he is an important financier, is not dispelled by Plush He gets mixed up in romance be- tween beautiful Frances Rafferty and handsome young Bruce Kellogg starts to take" the townspeople but decides to go straight when he dis covers a real, honest-to-goodness mine and gets involved in numer- ous and hilarious scrapes in the pro- cess of becoming an honest business man.
