PATHE COMEDY TONIGHT
“Super-Hooper-Dyne Lizzies” is the
name of a Mack Sennett Pathe com
edy -which will be shown tonight at
the Liberty theatre. As the title! im
plies, it is a riotous burlesque on the
festive radio which has been making
bugs out of otherwise perfectly nor
mal individuals. The trouble and, in
cidentally the fun, starts when Andy
Clyde invents a machine by which he
can run all the local flivers by radio.
He is on liis way to putting the gas
merchants out of business, when his
dumb helper throws the w'rong switch
and turns on too much juice. Then
follows one of the wildest traffic tie
ups ever seen in six States. Flivers
run wild all over the countryside and
i
by the time the various owners man-j
age to stop their careening carry-alls,
the radio business of Mr. Clyde has
suffered a severe slump.

ALASKA LEGISLATURE
(Juneau Empire)
After more than two hours consid
eration, featured by occasional bits
of stinging comment and several un
successful attempts to amend, the
Senate Saturday afternoon finished
the second reading of Senate bill No.
1, the famous Comptroller bill. Owing
to the fact that many portions of the
measure will have to be rewritten,
two or three new sections added, parts
of others stricken, and amendments of ,
a few words or phrases put in at va
rious places, it will probably be two
or three days before it can be brought!
back into the Senate for final action, i
One significant amendment was put
into the bill yesterday over the votes
of at least some of its proponents.
Another amendment which would have 1
virtually changed the entire purport !
of the measure was lost by a very:
narrow margin.

Wants Governor on Board
After Chairman Steele of the finance
committee, who is author of the Sen
ate measure, had practically complet
ed amending the measure in acooTd
with his program, Senator Dunn took
the floor and offered an amendment
to the first section in Article IV., which
would have taken the Attorney Gen
eral off the Board of Control and put
on it the Governor of the Territory.
The amendment was seconded by Sen
ator Jensen.
Proponents of the measure were al
most a unit in opposing the sugges
ted alteration. Senator Frame ad
mitted he had originally been of the
belief that the Attorney General
could not properly serve on the board,
but after more careful study he had
changed his opinion and was convinc
ed it was not only proper but it was
logical and right for him to so act.
Pratt Sides With Frame
Senator Pratt agreed with Senator
Frame that the Attorney General
should be a member but gave slightly
different reasons. It is proposed, he
pointed out, to try out an entirely new

eperiment in government under this
scheme. To reject teh Attorney Gen
eral and replace him -with the Gover
nor, he said, would not be at all in line
with the purport of the measure. If
it is to become a law, he added, it
should be substantially in the same
form as it is wanted by its support
ers so that a thorough trial may be
made of it and, in case of failure, re
| sponsibility for it cannot be charged
to anyone else.
Hunt Eulogizes Wickersham
With striking earnestness, Senator
Hunt protested against the Dunn
amendment. His was the longest t
speech made by any member during
the Senates consideration. He di
gressed, apparently, into a eulogy of
| Judge Wickersham and a verbal as
sault on those who have opposed the
latter and his political allies.
The people of Alaska have asked
for the Comptroller bill and a Board
