The tense and surprise-packed film is said to combine every ele- ment of high and absorbing enter- tainment with a murder that starts a battle between big-town politi- cians and the police; a baffling mystery that surrounds the disap- pearance of a corpse that walked right out of the morgue; and the romance of a young police officer who has to book for murder a beautiful blonde he'd much rather kiss. Carole Landis is seen as Janet Bradley, the daughter of a reform mayoralty candidate, charged with a murder she did not commit. William Gargan portrays a young nolice lieutenant who is torn be- tween his duty to book Janet for murder on circumstantial evidence end his romantic interest in her. The entire story involves just 12 hours at a Metropolitan Police sta- tion and the unraveling of a thrill- ing mystery. - -eo—— - When you pay for QUALITY why not get the FINEST—Buy FLOR- | SHEIM SHOES at Graves. —adv.

Now—by Pan American Clipper—it is possible for anyone to fly round the world in less than a week . . . in 96 flight hours. It is more than chance that Pan American World Airways, the world’s most experienced airline, should be first to establish a round-the-world air roure. This achievement in ! world air transport has a background of over halfa-billion miles of overseas flight — the equivalent of more than 71,000 trans-Pacific flights. * There will be further achievements— further mileposts of progress — in the years to come.
