Coffe Schilling VACUUM PACKED | Three stories in one are deftly woven together to make up this realistic offering; a charming ro- mance between two youngsters of a Russian village near the Bessarabian | border, the story of that village and inhabitants as the Nazi blitz at- tack changes it from a happy and | peaceful community to a smoking ! Mathison, the former Marvel Ged- —— it |ruin, and the stirring efforts of an |elderly farmer and four young people !to bring weapons through the Ger- /man lines and arm the able-bodied 'men hiding in the woods awaiting the moment to avenge the town's | destruction. | A new romantic twosome of Anne Baxter and newcomer Farley Grang- er does brilliantly in carrying the film's love interest and much of its breathless suspensse in the arms- smuggling sequences. Dana An- drews is splendid as a young bomb- ardier, and outstanding perform- ances are given by Walter Huston as the village doctor, Ann Harding as a peasant mother, Walter Bren- nan as a farmer, Jane Withers as a fidgety school girl, Dean Jagger as the Soviet leader and Erich von Stroheim as a German army doc-‘ tor.

During the 25 | years the Salvation Army has been | in Juneau it has provided men of all races and walks of life with food, lodging and relaxation, and “before the U.S.O. was established in ‘Ju- neau the Salvation Army provided a canteen for the Armed forces.” Brigadier Taylor pointed out that a reading room, furnishing literature | of all kinds, is being used by “fish- | ermen, transients, high school boys |and men in the armed forces” now in Juneau. To wind up his talk Brigadier | Taylor showed a colored moving pic- ture on the Salvation Army in the War Today. These pictures explain- ed how the Salvation Army was ans- wering the call with food and enter- tainment for the Armed forces in every theatre of the War, as well as one the Home Front. ——————— .
