THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA 3 END TONIGHT AT \TWENTIETH CENTURY' Richard Arlén, Jean Park- er Star in Thrilling War-time Picture | If you like the sting of salt spray | in your face and the smell of hot oil from roaring marine motors, then set your course for the 20th Century Theatre where Para-/ mount’s “Torpedo Boat” is cur- rently playing. The film, starring Richard Arlen and exciting Jean | Parker, ends tonight Supporting Arlen and the blonde Miss Parker is a top flight thriller |cast including Mary Carlisle such stalwarts as Phillip | Dick Purcell, Robert and Warren Hymer. The director |was that consistent mentor of thrill-filled action hits, John Raw- lins. Willlam H. Pine and Wwil- liam C. Thomas, who gave us such acuion romances as “Forced Land- ing” and “Flying Blind,” were the producers. In “Torpedo Boat,” Arlen doffs his flying suit in favor of a speed " boat driver’s cork life jacket. The transition from air pilot to water speedster was made without bat- ting an eye. The present film is even more exciting than its fast and furious predecessors in which |Arlen, usually with Miss Parker as co-star, extracted spine-tingling ad- ventures from the upper atmos- phere. In short, “Torpedo Boat’ is tops in thrills, tops in romance, tops in excitement. You'll miss it at your own peril—and don't say we didn't tell you! - and Terry, Middlemass % bo oA o .; Corp.

He can't ask her to ride up to the foyer (for entrance is at least 50 percent of the value) in his own roadster and there's noth- | ing exciting, sensational, or im- pressive about walking from- a parking lot. There must be a lim- | ousine and a driver, to pull up| right at the foyer, and pull away. That's another ten bucks. After- ward, there’s the Cocoanut Grove, or the equivalent, which is another $25 to $35. Total, with incidentals, pretty near a week’s salary. The starlet, female, has her own problems.
