CLAIMS DUE FOR TROUBLE, MINER THINKS
Continued from Page D

The big operators will come in and get any big haul there's to be had."
 Lost Royalties
 Glass said he learned the hard way. He said that in 1882 he stalk ed out 16 claims on Niukluk and until 1941 worked them only enough to maintain his claim while he worked elsewhere to earn enough to buy dredging equipment.
 In l94l, he said, he leased his claims to be worked by dredging company. He said he was to re- ceive royalties. He said the firm successfully maintained later that it didn't have to pay royalties on gold taken from navigable stream. He said he took the contest to court and lost his appeal, although the court compelled the company to pay royalties up to the time of the decision.
 The same thing will happen to these prospectors," he predicted. If there's a real strike, the little guys going to get lost in the shuf- file. The law makes a gold strike No Mans Land"

THRILL STORY IS SCREENED TONIGHT
 AT 10TH CENTURY

q Walk Alone" the new Hal Wal lis production for Paramount which arrives tonight at the 20th CentL>y Theatre with co-stars Burt Lancas- ter and Lizabeth Scott, tells the suspenseiul story of a unique double-cross perpetrated upon a man who wouldn't take it lying down In twenty-four exciting hours the vicious double-cross is avenged in way that is said to he tops in movie thrills.
 Word is that Charles Schnee has scripted a story loaded with puAe- pounding situations. and preview- CTS unanimously agree that the ex- cellent cast, under Byron Haskin's effective direction, has extracted every gasp of excitement in it. 1 They have singled out for commen- dation, in addition to the stars, Kirk Douglas, Wendell Corey and Kristine Miller.
 Lancaster, now firmly established as one of the screens most mag netic personalities, is said to be in his best rough-and-romantic form in II Walk Alone" AS Frankie Ma dison, an ex-bootlegger who returns from long prison stretch only to Le double-crossed by an old pal" 1 he has the sort of two-fisted role that catapulted him to Hollywood heights.
 Violent physical action, Lancas- ter's main forte, is spotlighted in three reportedly vivid episodes in the film. The fight scene, in which Burt is unmercifully beaten up, has been called one of the most realis- tic and bruising battles ever filmed It has also been said that Lancas- ter's tarehanded capture and un- arming of double-crossing Kirk Douglas, in a fight in the dark, builds to a maximum of suspense and that the running gun duel and climactic car crash in hi- lacking scene add much to the drama.

 Carlson, successful portrait pho- tographer, said the tune and words for the song came to him IS years !. ago while he was sleeping. Craig, then a rising young orchestra lead- CT, and writer of many song hits among them Near You"-intro- duced it at the time on a radio Hits of Tomorrow" program.
 Not more than 15O copies of the song were sold.s It went into the trunk. There it stayed until Carl son went to Nashville, Tenn, few months ago to visit his old friend, Craig.
 Craig said the current musical trend was for sweet music" and he decided to dust off Carlson's dream. The sale to the recording company followed. The photo grapher- -songwriter is not closing up his studio, but he is digging down into that old trunk again. "Why, through the years, as a hobby, I have picked out about 50 songs, with words and music" ;" Carlson said.
