JUNEAU LEAGUE
 STARTS PRACTICE
 FOR BALL SEASON

Juneau City Basketball league practice started last night ln both the Juneau and Douglas high school gymnasiums. The turnout at the Juneau High gym where ACS ana Darnells squads took to the floor was slightly below the ten men complement allowed.
 The men were enthusiastic, il as rusty at ball handling as might te expected the first night, and they played hard the full hour al iotted to them Comparatively, Darnell'S squad locked much bet ter than the ACS bunch; but the ACS was short several of it's play CTS, even so the fellows looked as though they might well turn them selves into a creditable team
 Darnels turned out the following men last night, and Rod is expect ing to acquire one more good man to take the floor with these nine: J. Hickey, McDaniel, Nielsen, Bav- ard, Lucas. Darnell, Dooley Taylor and Williams.
 ACS turned out seven men, expect to add several more who were un- able to practice last night. E. Tal- bot, B. Claxon, B. Uher, John Gen. try, Joe Cruz, Les Porter and V. Mcdonnell were those working out.
 Ems. Roy Angel, manager of the USCG Wachusett, turned in a list of 18 names to A. B. Phillips, the league director. Later on, 1t will be necessary to cut the squad down to the ten man regulation size; but Angel will have lots of choice.
 His men are w. B. Black, R. R. Eastman, John Hill, Jr., Eugene Jones, Joe Petrizzo, Len Dupy, Ray Kozopas, Clifford Mcdonald, Char les Howard, Roy Angel, mgr, Wayne Giffin, Charles Lister, Jack Manson, Brian Wilson, Jack Thompson, William Fakier, Lelane Batdorf and George Sain, Jr.

UP IN ARMS" IN
 TECHNIC0L0R IS
 BILL FOR CAPITOL

The sparkling Technicolor musical comedy Up in Arms" is the week end attraction at the Capitol start ing tonight.
 Crammed full of laughter and music, of clever novelty features and brilliant performances and spectacular scenes, the film tops anything of it's kind Goldwyn has ever turned out, and it guarantees Ia delightful evening for any thea tregoer.
 Danny Kaye, long noted on Broadway for his adroit and versa tile comedy, makes his screen debut /, in the stellar role, and to say that he is sensational is putting it mild fly. He is a one-man show in him. { self, and his portrayal of the neu- rotic draftee plagued with flock of non-existent ailments is one of the funniest characterizations film ed
 With the fine support of hap Pl4y SllOoSI CdSb llCdACQ Wy A1lllo&t Shore, Dana Andrews and Con- stance Bowling, Kaye keeps things moving at a dizzy speed and his antics and adventures in camp, on board transport and on a Jap infested South Pacific island, make the production. something long to remember
 | Five notable song numbers, one a lrousing soldiers chorus, the other four sung separately or together by Kaye and Miss Shore, and the gorgeous color scenes, add to the attractiveness of the offering. So does an arresting dream sequence with the Goldwyn Girls that play vital part in the laughter-stud- ded plot.

grandson of Henry Ayton, we

members Of the family in Scot
land, Hershey's father, the late
Clarence Ayton, received picture

near the village of Ayton, Ber-

miles from Edinburg. The present
castle was erected in 1854 on land
owned by the Ayton family since

Title to "Ayton Castle" passed
into the family of Home through
the marriage of a daughter, the
