New "Thin Man" Episode
Good as Predecessors
By L. K. P.
"The Shadow of the Thin Man,"
featuring William Powell and
Myrna Loy, which opened last
night at Hunt's Indian theatre
and will continue through Tues
day, has proved to be as enter
taining as itstwo predecessors,
"The Thin Man" and "The Last
of the Thin Man." The fast-moving
comedy revolves around the
finding of a jockey shot in a
shower room at the race track
stables, and the murder of a
newspaperman. The murder has
been cleverly carried out and only
the sleuthing of the famous de
tective, "Nick Charles," played
by Bill Powell, and his charming
wife, Nora, played by Myrna Loy,
brings the slayer to justice. The
Nick Charles' young son and their
dog, "Asta" come in for their
share of adding enjoyment to
the play.
In addition to the main feature,
an unusually clover cartoon com
edy is presented as well as news
of sports and the filming of Presi
dent Roosevelt's recent address to
congress on national defense. A
secial spot comedy, "The New
Lambeth Walk" (without per
mission by A. Hitler) furnished
additional entertainment to the
movie goers.
Returns to College Don Hall
has returned to his studies at
Oregon State college, following
the week-end here visiting his
mother, Mrs. George Ware.

Auto-Tire Ration
May Cut Program
At Hatcheries
Possibility of a greatly curtail
ed program at state hatcheries is
foreseen as a result of automobile
and tire restrictions, James
Vaughn, superintendent "of the
game commission trout hatchery
at Rock creek said today. Mr.
Vaughn stated that he is keeping
"HI t'r'.it WO.OOO 0!" the Utah
rainbow trout orbs taken at the
hatchery this year, although more
than one million try were batch
ed and released last year. About
three million eggs were taken
from the brood fish at the hatch
ery, but those not being hatched
at Rock creek arc .being sent to
other date hatcheries.
The game commission, he
states, is holding back on ex
penses due to the fact that cur
tailed use of automobiles and a
drastic reduction In tourist travel
may cause a very great drop In
revenue to the commission
through a cut In the number of
angling and hunting licenses.
Mr. Vaughn reports also that
the winter steclhcad run in the
North Umpqua is considerably
later than usual. Up to the pres
ent time, he states, there have
been very few steelhends taken
at the hatcery while ordinarily
at this time of year he is hold
ing a large number of fish- Fish
ermen report good catches of win
ter stool heads in the lower Ump
