With Richard Dix, Chester Morris | and Joan Fontaine in starring roles, and Harry Carey, Paul Guilfoyle | and other favorites ih the cast, the| new offering deals with activities at | a big aviation school, at which | Carey, a stern disciplinarian, is| commander. Dix is a noted pilot acting as| s assistant, and Morris is| Carey's son, a student at the school, while Miss Fontaine is the pretty | cousin of one of the school instrue- | tors. ‘The romance and jealousy of the story grows out of the rivalry be- tween Dix and Morris over Miss Fontaine. And these, and Morris' strained relations with his father | and his friendship with Dix, are all | woven into the exciting climax when 1 Dix, Morris and Guilfoyle, flying | into the Arctic to map out a hPI" international air route, crack up in | the Alaskan wilderness.
