Marie Dressier and Wally Beery are the two reasons why you'll go and see "Tugboat Annie" and like it. They are the reasons why there wasn't parking space for three solid blocks around Hunt's Craterlan last night and probably won't be tonight. The characterizations drawn by these two grand old troupers could not be Improved upon, and there are some sequences In the picture which genuinely thrill even the most phleg matic In the audience. However, It is sort of a shame the way the screen writers have of resur recting perfectly dead men from the graves In order to force happy end ings. For Instance. Normal Rellly Ralne had given Wally Beery 's counterpart In the original story, a flaming and glorious death as a result of the only worth-while thing he had ever done in life climbing Into the boat's boiler chamber to fix leaking tubes which not only threatened the life of the tugboat crew, but rendered it Incapa ble of towing the large ship captained by his son. The gals In 'the movie re-write de partment changed all that. Barring the temporary discomfiture of a hos pital bed and bandages, Wally came out without a scar on his face, and went back to the happy pastime of drink and tugboat operation. It may be all a matter of personal viewpoint. But what a glorious exit the original story would have been for Wally. And what a swell final scene for Marie I Jimmy Dunn Coming In Rialto Picture James Dunn, Joan Bennett and Herbert Mundln opens Thursday at the Rialto Theater In the featured roles of "Arizona, to Broadway," the new comedy from the studios of Fox Film. It la the story of a young con fidence man who will give no man or girl an even break, until he falls into a trap created by his own inadvertence. The story revolves around a small time gambler In a western carnival who comes to the rescue of a beautiful-girl. The girl is about to be "taken in" by a group of other con fidence men, when he sets out. to pro&ct her Interests. He succeeds In what he sets out to do, but does not reveal hla purpose in doing It to perform a litttle "taking In" on his own account. His plan is knocked awry by the fact that he falls in love with the girl. fa POWER- SAFETY 6 APPEARANCE Valve Grinding Positively Elimniated We have installed the new Kwick Way System which insures the car owner of a PERFECT valve grinding job at a lower cost.

Phone 116 T L IS Dewey school dstrtet No. 39, located in the Coker, Butte section, will be without school facilities for the fall term, unless taxpayers raise $800 by the middle of September to pay on the tuition bill to the Medford school district. County School Superinten dent C. R. Bowman said today. Children In the elementary grades from that district, have been trans ported In to the Medford schools for a number of years. It was pointed out and the district is more than a year behind in Its payments. Approxi mately $600 is due for the school year 1031-33, while nothing has been paid on the 1933-33 bill, which mounts to approximately $1500, Mr. Bowman said. Thirty children attended the Med ford schools the past year from the Dewey district. The board U also behind In the payment of the bus driver, who brought the children in to school, his pay being at least a year delinquent. Medford school board haa served no tice on the Dewey board that unless they obtain the money and pay up. the district will be cut off lrom using the local schools. The Dewey board held a meeting Tuesday and .drafted a letter to the delinquent tax payers In the district, urging them to pay their delinquen cies if at all possible, so the children might attend school this winter. The letter, signed by the board, Dolph Phlpps, C. H. Isaac and Lloyd Corey, snya that there are approxi mately 40 taxpayers In the district who are delinquent from a half to 3V4 years. It further states "Pereona who are not able to pay all of their taxes cow may pay a part of them. The law permits one to pay at this time the school tax only, If he wishes, and let his county, state and other taxes run until some time later. "If you are unable to pay all of your taxes at this time and wish to pay only your school tax, call the sheriff's office In Medford and find out how much your school tax la.' A recent decision of the supreme court now makes it possible to pay only the school taxes at one time, and the board Is urging the people to take advantage of the measure, E. H. Hedrlck, superintendent of the Medfod school system, said to day that the Medford board greatly regrets the necessity of making the move, but that It la not possible for the local district to act as creditors for other districts. Mr. Bowman said today that the basic cause of the trouble In the Dewey district la due to the extreme delinquencies, Inadequate budget, the special tax in that district now stand ing at eight mills, when it should be several mills higher. Members of the county court, Barl B. Day, Judge, and Commissioners Ralph Billings and R. E. Nealon, ac companied by County Engineer Paul Rynnlng and City Superintendent Pred W. Scheffel are thla ftfrxn viewing the proposed op '.wig of Court street onto the Pacific high way north of Medford. Right-of-way on all the property necessary haa been obtained, with the exception of one strip through the Owen-Oregon land, the cost of which haa not been established. Opening of this stretch, will make a new oulet from the city to the Pa cific highway, eliminating much con gestion on the section of the highway which runs Into Medford. ur New System!
