CAPTAIN TRASK
TRAVERSES TWO
MILLION MILES
San Francisco (IP) "The first
two million miles are the hard
est" So sa.vs Cant. J. H. Trask. com
mander of the Matson liner Sierra,
who is now negotiating his 153rd
round trip between San Francisco
and Sydney, Australia.
The grizzled skipper of the Sierra
has been on this same run for 31
years, during which he has travel
ed 2,376,398 miles, nils distance
is equivalent to nearly 100 times
around the world.
Doesn't it ever get monotonous?"
Capt. Trask was asked.
Well, no, I can't say that It
does," he chuckled. "The first mil
lion miles or so were a little tire
some, but you see it has become a
habit with me and I don't suppose
I'd be satisfied anywhere else.
I love the open sea. May be
hard for a land lubber to under
stand, but I'm always restless in
port, can t seem to wait till we
shove off again. There is peace and
calm out there that you don't find
on land."
Capt, Trask admitted that the
only tiresome feature of his lob
was listening to ana oeing expect
ed to laugh at the same "wise
cracks' frmo tourists day ufter day,
and answering the same obvious
questions. But even that, he says,
is part of the game and he "doesn't
mind any more."
For Instance, one tourist wui re
mark that "there seems to be a lot
of water in the ocean today." And
another comes back with "Yes,
must have had some rain here
latelv." still another wants to
know it he felt the bump when they
crossed the equator.
Laughing seems to be one of the
easiest things Skinner Trask docs.
Creased lines about his mouth and
a merry twinkle In his eyes stamp
him as a man oi u-repressiDie gooa
humor. Yet, he can be and Is se
vere when the exigency of his po
sition demands.
On only one subject is Capt.
Trask a bit sensitive, and that is
regarding his age. "Ask me no
questions and I'll tell you no fairy
tales about my age," he smiled.
He admitted, however, that he
has been on the picturesque South
Seas run for 31 years, and that
prior to that service he had done "a
stretch" on the old windjammers.
He first sailed around the Horn in
an old sailing vessel In 1893. Capt
Trask was born in Yarmouth, Nova
Scotia, but spent his boynooa aays
in Massachusetts, where he first
yielded to the call of the sea.

SILENT FILMS
STARS BACK IN
TALKIE ROLES
Hollywood (LP) After a variety of
experiences In temporary exile, sev
en heroines of silent film days have
returned to stardom and near-star
dom in recent months.
They are:
Lois Wilson, Greta Nlasen. Enid
Bennett, Louise Brooks, Doris Ken,
yon, Dolores Costello and Eleanor
Boardman.
Miss Wilson had not worked for
ten months. She had finally decid
ed to go to Europe with Aiirlol Lee
and try the London stage. She even
booked passage. That was on Fri
day. -That night Universal called
her for a screen test.
Lois had made screen tests be
fore without result. "Sorry," she
told John Stahl, "but I'm going to
Europe."
.In Hollywood that's serious busi
ness, saying "no." When a person
storms the casting offices, he gets
the cold shoulder. But Just turn
down a proffered Job and the studio
is Insistent that no one else will do.
At last Miss Wilson said she would
take the screen test, but that a de
cision must be made on Saturday,
She got an Important role In
"Seed," with John Boles and Gen
evieve Tobln. The part is as the
mother of five children. This is
somewhat different from her usual
roles. But the part promises to re,
store her to the screen, which she
has known for 15 years.
When Milton 8111s died sudden,
ly, his wife, Doris Kenyon, cancelled
all her concert engagements and de
cided to go to Europe.
Warner Brothers remembered her
work In the early talkie "Interfer
ence." They waxed persuasive.
I had foresworn pictures," Miss
Kenyon said, "but with this offer It
seemed foolish to refuse, I was sur
prised, though, to play a "young
forty," In 'Lou and r. I'm such a
long way under that. I looked young
enough, anyhow, to be given a long
contract and a more youthful role
with Walter Huston In "The Upper
Underworld." Also, I will be the wife
of George Arliss In "Alexander
Hamilton'."
However, she will have her Euro
pean trip soon with concert engage
ments in Salzburg, Austria, and Ber
lin, Germany. Her heart is still in
her siiutltur.
Dolores Costello returns to tne
screen in the newly completed "Ex
pensive Women." Its working title
was "The Passionate Sonata." She
has changed the most of the seven
returning. There was her marriage
to John Barrymore and tne Daoy.
"Expensive women" finds her In
love with a married man and drown
ing her sorrow in affairs.
Eleanor Boardman married King
Vidor, director, before the talkies
came In. Two baby girls arrived
(not twins). She returned to tne
screen to play in "She Goes to War."
Then there was "Redemption," and,
more recently, "The Great Meadow."
She has Just finished "The Squaw
Man" and is to do "Women Love
Once." Motherhood has made her
even more beautiful.
' Enid Bennett Insists that she re
ally Isn't "back in pictures" and
that she lust accepted the mother
role In "Sklppy" for the fun o! it.
Louise Brooks had a bad break.
She finished "The Canary Murder
Case," a silent film, and sailed for
Europe. Bangl Along came the tal
kies and another voice that of
Margaret Livingston was dubbed
into the picture to make It a talkie.
When Louise returned to the United
States, she was out of the running.
But she kept trying and now she Is
working again, in roles less lm
Dortaut than when she left, It 1
true.
The case of Greta Nissen is a
strange one. She was working In
"Hells Angels ' as leading woman
when the talkies came along. Her
English was too strongly accented.
Jean Harlow was substituted. Miss
Nissen has been working in stock
companies In the East, and, improv
ed in English and wearing her
clothes better, has returned to work
in Hollywood. She Just completed
"Women of All Nations- with Ed
mund Lowe, Victor McLaglen and
El Brendel.

EDITOR WRITES
OF TABLOIDIA
New York (IF) Emile Gauvreau,
managing editor of the New York
Mirror and one of the most import
ant forces In the development of
tabloid Journalism In America, is
the author of a novelized expose
of tabloid methods called "Hot
News;' Just published by the Ma
caulley company.
Gauvreau. a former New England
newspaperman, was given the task
several years ago of starting the
New York Evening Graphic, a Mac
Fadden paper, and personally de
veloped many of the sensational
phases of gathering and presenting
tabloid news.
He originated the "composograph"
a method of superimposing one
picture on another to illustrate an
event In the news when It was im
possible for the photograph of the
actual event to be taken.
Gauvreau, In his book, shows how
the tabloid editors "make their own
new.i" when things are quiet in the
newspaper world. He presents a vivid
picture of the aggressiveness and
enterprise of the editors and re
porters on these papers, and of their
constant, fevortsh ligfit to nolo ana
increase circulation.
It is evident from the text of "Hot
News" tliat Gauvreau was the an
onymous author of the serial "Ad
ventures In Tabioidla" that appear
ed in a weekly national magazine
recently.
"Hot News" will soon be pro
duced as a talkie by Metrc-Goldwyn
Mayer.

GARBAGE DEAL
AGAIN BEFORE
CITY COUNCIL
An attempt wilt be made, but a
futile attempt, It is predicted, to
pass the garbage franchise ordi
nance over the veto of Mayor Greg
ory, when the city council convenes
Monday night.
The reason given by the mayor for
his veto was an opinion from City
Attorney Trlndle holding that the
ordinance was void for the reason
that it was impossible to grant a
franchise to a corporation that did
not exist. The Salem Sanitary ser
vice, seeking the franchise, has not
yet incorporated, but is expected to
do so If the franchise wvre allowed
and Is still making plans along that
line.
The mayor, however. Is known to
be opposed to exclusive franchises
on general principles and no doubt
that had a good deal to do with hu
vetoing the measure which would
have granted the concern an exclu
sive garbage hauling franchise for
five years and turned over to It the
operation of the municipal inciner
ator. The strong talking point for
the ordinance was that it would re
lieve the city of the $6250 annual ex
pense of operating the incinerator.
Four members of the council voted
against the ordinance when It pass
ed two weeks ago. Of those who vot
ed for it. Alderman Patton will be
absent Monday night, hence. In or
der to get the necessary 10 votes. It
would be necessary for the Sanitary
Service to get the vote of at least
one member who previously voted
against the bill.
only a verbal report will ne re--turned
by the utilities committee on
the Baar & Cunningham water re
port, and it will ask further time
for consideration. Several meetings
of the committee are planned tor
the next two weeks, and one prob
ably will be a public meeting. The
committee will call in the members
of the now defunct city water com
mission and also will call Engineer
J, C. Baar, who was not available
to the committee at Its meeting last
Friday night for the reason that he
was in California.
The Kowlts labor bill Is scheduled
for third reading Monday night but,
according to Alderman Kowltz, may
not be reported out until later. The
reason for this Is that Alderman
O'Hara, one member of the ordi
nance committee,' is out of the city
and there is doubt whether Alder
man Dancy, the third member, Is In
accord with Kowita on the measure.
As a special order of business the
matter of collecting delinquent
street assessments will come up. The
delinquent list Is a long one and
offers matter for delicate considera
tion by the council. Alderman Fat
ton, who was Instrumental in get
ting it made a special order, will not
be present.
It Is probable that resolutions pro
viding for the paving of South Lib
ert street at the approaches of the
bridge and the paving oi norm
Commercial street at tne approacn
es of the new bridge in that district
will come uo Monday night. The
latter also provides for elimination
of the "bottle neck" hi that district.

In all the 10 cases tnere were
only nine Jury trials. "The calling
of the Jury into almost complete

commission said. Eight of the
trials were In prohibition cases ana
three of them brought convictions.
Evidence of the "bargaining sys
