means of bringing Sierra College to residents of the sprawling and isolated segments comprising the district which ranges from the Sacramento county
line to the Nevada California
border."

photographer. Locke said that all
information related to scheduled
programs will be released to

“Our efforts to provide worthwhile services will require the
combined efforts of personnel at
Sierra College and the citizens
of the college community," he
added. "We canforesee when our
programs here at Sierra will be
coordinated with those of other
community colleges throughout
California." :

IN MULE CARRYING HAND, GETS FOOT,
. DEER CASE
DOWNIEVILLE — Albert Turk" Johnson, son of Sheriff
and Mrs. W. Dewey Johnson, got his buck Sunday morning near
the Lavezzola Ranch northeast of Downieville. It was a fine big
buck, a mule was used to pack it out <and as in many cases
the trouble began when a mule ipates. . :
The sheriff recently obtained the mule from Guy N. Rob“inson, well-known stockman, who summer ranges cattle in this
section, Johnson said it was not a big mule, about 700 pounds, ~
young, and had given Robinson some grief. . ee
The deer which was a big one and weighed 185 pounds
on the mule's back, Said mule demurred,
as mules frequently do. Johnson endeavored to influence him
by hand -and foot. They made some progress. The mule stepped
into a. yellow jacket's nest, and things moved faster. He laid
down, brying to get the load off his back. Dewey and Turk also
tried to get the deer loose and the mule up, midst flying hooves.
Dewey. was kicked in more places than he wanted to count;
Turk ‘happened to be set just right for a hoof to ligt and roll
him about 15 feet over ground. Dewey reported loss of skin
when the mule bit a piece from his shoulder. Looks like a case
of "man skinner," instead of mule-skinner.
Dewey says he calls the mule Guy and
he's going to tangle with him.
Anyway, they got the deer to yn. :

‘ When the Broadway Theater, corner of Broad and Bridge
Streets, closes Monday night after the showing of Duel in the Sun,
it will remain closed while the old,historic structure is torn
down and a fine, new building constructed in its stead, Ralph
Achey, manager, made the announcement. : ;
The building was erected as a hotel, originally known as
the Bailey House, in 1854 and, ten years later, was converted
into a playhouse. On its stage appeared such noted artists as
Edwin Booth, Jenny ‘Lind, and many others. For many years
the Nevada County Theater owned and, operated the business.
Six years ago, the theater’ was sold by its local owners
to T and D Jr. Enterprises of San Francisco. The sale was made
shortly after the same large concern bought the two theaters
in Grass Valley and presently erected the new modern playhouse, the Del Oro.
While the Broadway Theater is closed, the Lola Montez
theater. in Grass Valley will be opened for a regular movie
program.
