Instructress Henri= grnvg:zvmt) Cl g S e Ak THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA "OUR VINES HAVE TENDER GRAPES" IS BILL AT CAPITOL One of the most gripping motion pictures of the year, with a superb cast headed by Margaret O'Brien jand Edward G. Robinson, is com- ing to the Capitol Sunday for three |days. Presented by Metrdo-Gold- wyn-Mayer, it is called “Our Vines Have Tender Grapes.” | Both stars rise to new heights in roles far different from those they have portrayed recently. Little Mar- garet is simply superb as Salma, seven-year-old Wisconsin farm girl who battles almost single-handedly against the complacency and self- centered attitude of the town's men and wemen which is inevit- ably leading their destruction. Robkinson plays Margaret's father, a farmer whose first and last devo- tions are to his own home and his own family. Seen in solid support of these two are James Craig, as the editor of the local newspaper, a forwar: looking young man who is Selma |confidant and ally: Frances Gif- (ford, who is beautiful as well as talented, the new school teach- er; and young Jackie “Butch” Jen- kins, who is utterly delightful as Selma’s five-year-old cousin and playmate. | “Our Vines Have Tender Grapes” is a true-to-life drama, peopled with true-to-life characters. It is \full of award-winning performan- ces, full of humanity and of drar atic bighlights you will long re- member. “Our Vines Have Tender Grapes” is outstanding film fare which makes for memorable entertain- ment. o as - eee e 00 e s v oo oo TIDE TABLE JUNE tide 4:41 tide 10:50 tide 16:36 p.m., 3.6 tice 22:57 p.m., 15.1 JUNE 12 dide 5:32 am, 16 tide 11:45 am., 12.9 tide 17:25 pm., 3.7 tide 23:39 p.n,, 15.7 e s o o o 9 am, 29 am., 124 Low High Low High Low High Low High . ‘Police Swing Clubs in N Rome Demonstratio !
