speech or music from high, thin

This receiver, unlike others, is
not at the mercy of the loud
speaker. The “Colortone” also
helps to subdue to a great degree,
the scratching, hissing, whistling
sounds that are usually the bane
of radio reception.
The "S’s” and the "H's” are plainly
audible; naturalness of sound replaces
the artificiality which has heretofore in
terfered with radio enjoyment.
Do not tniaa a demonstration of this great j

"SHOW-OFF" DRAMATIZES
FAMILIAR AMERICAN TTPE
SHOWING TONIGHT ONLY
Have you a little show-off in your
1 home? Or perhaps in your 'home
town? Of course you have!
Then you are sure to enjoy Para-j
mount’s new comedy, “The Show-off,” |
which opens at the Liberty theatre j
for tonight only, because this film;
version of the famous stage play by |
George Kelly dramatized this familiar
I American individual in satiric style j
(and with striking fidelity.
According to Malcolm St. Clair, who |
directed the picture with Ford Sterl-j
ing in the title role, Aubrey Piper,1
the “Show-off” is the most typical j
American character the screen has i
ever known.
j “Essentially,” emphasized St. Clair,!
■ “The Show-off” is an American crea-1
i tion like baseball, skyscrapers and j
Broadway, but he is by no means an ,
exclusive U. S. A. product. You will
find his counterparts the world over—
in Europe, Asia and darkest Africa.
“There are all kinds of “show-offs”,
I female as well as male. As a matter
j of fact, there’s a little of the show-off
! in everyone’s nature. When we look
around a bit, it is surprising how
many Aubrey Pipers we can recognize
I in one form or another. The fact that
they abound so-plentifully in real life
is the main reason why people get a
A'kick” out of seeing them on the stage
or screen”. Remember folks, tonight j
only. A new show again tomorrow
night.

The Signal Corps basketball team is
fast rounding into form and it won’t
be long now until they will feel
; “cooky” enough to pin back the ears j
j of any team in Alaska, bar none, no !
I foolin’.
Smith is an able coach and expects
I big things from his squad this season,
j He gave them a strenuous work-out |
i
i Monday night in preparation for the j
expected practice game with the crew I
j of the Wildcat Wednesday night. By |
[the way Smith is somewhat of a foot-1
j ball artist too, he wras showing a few !
| of the boys some of the plays 'he !
| used to put over in the Big Time Lea
i gue last night and how he used to stop j
! some of the plays directed thru his ,po- j
sition with his ears. In order not to
! be out-done by his firery manager,
j“Gimpie” Harris then demonstrated
| the Marathon mountain glide with less
'disastrous results than his first at
tempt last August to the huge enjoy
ment of the numerous spectators.
Slim Lenhart of radio fame also
strutted his stuff, it is said that he
might be the culprit who broke the
basketball bracket up on the board by
getting his legs all tangled up in it.
>NTo one has a chance with Slim when
it comes to jumping center and with a
little more experience he is going to
be a hard gent to keep off the team
as well as the ceiling,
, "Spark Plug" Galloway has tempor
arily laid aside his basketball uniform
until he gets his battery recharged,
according to the latest report “Sparky"
had the heaves, what ever that is,
after the last practice game. Here's
hoping he gets back soon.
Abraham Soloman Jesus Urie has
signed up' as the official mascot for
the army team as he claims to be the
only one in captivity who can bray
like a mule and no army team is com
plete without its mule. In return for
his services the boys have promised
to present him with the well known
brown derby with the red ear flaps.
O’Pheli^ Philpot lost out by a long
nose for the above position. He
claims that had his ears been a little
longer he would have beat Abie easily.
“Galloping” Wayne Galloway, “Skeet
er” Glancy, “Cuty” Stevenson, and last
but not least “Cannon Ball” Baker
comprising the remainder of the W A i
M C & T Squad will be heard from
next Wednesday evening. So tune in
on “Gateway” early if you want to get
a copy.
FOGS IMPENETRATED
8! NEW SEMI
NEW YORK, Sept. 21. (/P)—An in
vention has recently been made by the
Scottish inventor Baird, of an invisi
ble searchlight which it is said will 1
penetrate fog and make naval and j
military smoke screens useless in war- IJ
fare. The new invention called “noc
tovision” is the application of the
earlier “television” by the same in
ventor.
It is understood that “notovism”
will be applied in the form of an in
visible searchlight having 16 times
the penetrating power of a beam of
ordinary light through fog or smoke.
It is reported that a coasting steam
er running between London and Dun
dee has been fitted, during the quar
ter, with this apparatus. A telephone
may be connected to the photo-electric I
cell or electric eye—a vacuum enclos- i
ing rare elements—which is the soul
of the televisor, to make the invisible
beam produce a sound when it en
counters a ray of light or a solid ob
ject, and the nature of the object can
be determined by focusing it on the
screen of the noctovision.
SKIRTS, TOO SHORT
ROME, Sept. 21. (JP)—Too short
skirts hereafter are to be banned at
funerals according to an edict of the
pastor of the Church of Naples. Wear
ers of such abbreviated garments will
be refused admittance to cemeteries.
