It bears his unmistakable “touch,” which only the Old Mas- ter himself is able to impart to a picture. “Reap the Wild Wind” is a tale told in bold, heroic strokes of Am- erica’s fight to rid the Florida Keys of piratical wreckers who preyed on the lifeline of her windjammer merchant marine in the 1840's. De- Mille’s 66th plcture under the Para- mount banner, the present truly great film need make no obeisance to any of its predecessor It out- strips them all for grandeur of conception, startlingly beautiful photography and excellence of story. It's great drama way you look at it.

He said that the American Legion Dugout will be used along with the top floor of the old A-B Hall which the Army has taken over. Hall spoke of the difficulties of shipping in connection with get- ting equipment to Alaska and said that a new angle may be tried which “may eventuate in receiving | more support from a newly devel- cped direction.” | ‘The USO representative pointed out that the service men in South- cast Alaska “are in clover” com- pared to those serving in other | more advanced positions and in | areas where native rum is cheaper |than our beer, where soldiers take :n few snorts of it and poke a col- {onel in the eye.
