Missouri during the signing of the surrender papers. It's suspenseful, it's thrilling and it's powerfully dramatic. Setting out for a destination un- known until the scaled orders are opened, the crew at last find out | that the voyage is to pick up an’ intelligence officer in Korea. Then, learning of the unconditional sur= render, they intercept a Jap con- voy, but are fired upon and sink four ships. Reaching the destination, the sub picks up the intelligence officer and learns of a secret Jap plan to send Kamikaze planes against the Mis- souri to inflict another Pearl Har- bor debacle. To frustrate this scheme, the sub commander (Jim Bannon) dccides to sink the Jap carrier from which the attack is to be launched. This t'> sub succeeds in doing in as thrilling a climax, according to preview snoopers, as the screen has seen in many a battle picture. - STRATTON HAILED AS "MOST (COURAGEOUS ATHLETE OF 1946" PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 31.—Monty Stratton, the six-foot-five baseball pitcher who lost his right leg nine vears ago in a huntinz accident, was hailed today as the “most curageous athlete of 1946"—but the modest, former Chicago White Sox hurler says he owes his return to the mound “to my wife and two kids."

Boxing's lat>st “Golden Boy" at the box office was summoned ,to |appear before the fistic fathers to- iday to tell his story of a $100,000 ‘offer to throw his scheduled Dec. 27 fight azainst Ruben Shank of Denver. The fight was called off kecause Graziano complained of an ailing back. Listrict Anumey Frank S. Hogan said He was “more interested” in uncovering criminals who control fighters, through “fronts” acting as managers of record, than he in any other phase of his wide in- vestigation of gambling and fixing. Elimination of this particular evil —long a topic of common gossip in fight circles—has been regarded by boxing men for years as vitally- needed reform. Graziano already has told his story to the district attorney— how threz men approached him in Stillman’s gymnasium, mid-town training bas: of most fighters, and made t'e bribe offer, and that he thought it was “a gag."
