"THIS LANDIS. | MINE” NEXT ON CAPITOL SCREEN The inevitable result of Nazi oc- cupation of a peaceful European village forms the timely and real-, istic theme of “This Land Is Mine,” RKO Radio’s new Charles Laugh- ton-Maureen O'Hara starring ve- hicle, opening Sunday at the Cap- itol Theatre | Picturing for the first time on the screen just what happens when German troops take over a quiet little railway town in an effort to convert it into a part of the Ger- man war machine, the film reaches devastating heights of drama. Laughton is cast as a shy and timid school teacher with a terrific {inferiority complex, completely.dom- inated by a shrewish and possessive mother. His pupils laugh at him and his pathetic effort to teach them, but underneath it all the man Ihas a very real love for his country. | When, in spite of the endeavors ’or the Nazi commandant to concil- |iate*the villagers and avoid trouble, |the hidden resentment of the |younger patriots explodes into vio- |lence, a strict martial law is en- |forced and reprisals begin. The {teacher finds himself arrested on a charge of murdering a fellow citizen who has been aiding the |Nazis. Realizing at last what free- 'dom really means to a subjugated people, he turns his trial into a stirring appeal for unending re- | sistance against the invaders, and becomes both a martyr and a hero. Walter Slezak plays the role of |the Nazi officer. George Sanders' ‘Lhat of the collaborationist villager, jand Una O'Connor that of Laugh- | | ton’s mother, with many noted film !players in important .supportmg‘ | parts. J‘ | CTY COUNCL | HOLDSMEETING LAST EVENING Routine business and regular monthly reports took up the grcat-‘ er part of last night’s City Council’ meeting, held at the City Hall Councilmen voted to issue a call| for bids in regard to the paving of | Second Street between Franklin and | Gold Streets. The petition had been | previously submitted by the Baranof | Hotel. A favorable vote was also| cast for completion -of a rock wall on the Keith Wildes property on Evergreen Avenue by the city, with Wildes paying $150 of the cost. This is being done in exchange for a portion of the property deeded the! city, which property was taken overl for the purpose of widening the| road in that section. Recommendations were made for| the construction of a bulkhead on| Willoughby Avenue opposite Thi- bodeau’s Grocery and permission was granted the Forest Servite to place a building next to the street on the south side of the approach to the Government Float for the purpose of using it as a warehouse. |Councilmen voted to purchase six |new American flags in order to re- |plenish the supply. Roy Thomas, Street Foreman, was igiven an additional salary—that of the Building Inspector, until such time as one is appointed. Thomas has been doing this work in addi- tion to his other duties and the iCouncil voted in favor of the mo-! tion, the salary to be paid retro- actively. Permission was also granted May- or A. B. Hayes, to make the round trip to Sitka for the purpose of in- stituting an Elks Lodge at that place. Mayor Hayes is Exalted Ruler of the local Lodge. | i Baranof Beauty Salon WHERE SATISFACTION and SERVICE are SYNONYMOUS SMART HAIRDOS Reap Complimenis A full staff of experienced operators to satisfy your every wish in hair styling.
