TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 1945 TONITE! | ek toeRich & | NOW AT CAPITOL Courage to appreciate the past ond face the future is the keynote of “Tender Comrade,” Ginger Rog- ers' dramatic starring vehicle from RKO Radio. The plot concerns Jo and Chris, a couple of typical American youngsters who cariy their schooi- day friendship into marriage and dream happily of their future. Their plans are destroyed; Chris is called into service. Thereupon Jo gets herself a job in a defense plant. Besides the stress of separa- tion, there are housing and trans- portation problems for Jo eand many of the other war wives with whom she works. Feur of them finally are forced to band together and rent a place of their own. How Jo and the other girls work out their personal problems forms an engrossing narradve, the ro- wmance of Jo being highlighted in the action. The arrival of Jo's baby, and her determination to carry on for Chris, Jr.'s sake, whei she loses her husband, lends an emotional intensity to this inspir- ing tale of Mrs. America. — e PAN AMERICANIN FROM NORTH, SOUTH A Pan American Airways plane brought the following passengers to Juneau yesterday from Seattle: ‘ROBERT RYAN RUTH HUSSEY Feature at 7:55—1 Wednesday—Thursday David Browne, Charles Johnsone, Kenneth Lewis.

Under the bill, al? patented land must be registered by June 30, 1946. The bill also provides the Territory may take over such lands as fail to be registered and become delin- quent, Faring less happily was Senan‘f Rogge's Senate Bill No. 5, asking certain changes in the primary elec- tion laws requiring a statement of citizenship for candidates declaring for office.
