In this picture he is a half vil- lainous, half humorous gang leader with enormous conceit—so much indeed, that he makes prisoner a| young novelist to write a eulogistic | biography of him. He wants world to know him as the Napoleon the |of crime. All this is reported to| be very funny On the other hand, he doesn't hesitate to make a prisoner of Miss | | Francis, a noted surgeon, so that| she may dress wounds the gang-! sters receive in their conflicts with | | the police. | Bogart's characterization of “Red Gurn the mob leader, is said| to be one of his finest efforts. But, he is outsmarted in the end by the| woman doctor, and lands behind | the bars. - e Woman's Club fo Sponsor Seal | De;jgn Coniest; Following ine recommenaation of the Executive Board, the Juneau Wcman's Club members who mbtl yesterday in the pent house of the| Alaska FElectric Light and Power!
