The lush Paris of the '80's is the | setting for: this fascinating tale of suave intrigue in top newspaper and political circles. The part of the shrewd and ambitious journalist, George Duroy (the Bel Ami of the | title), is played by Sanders with all he grace and vigor we have come to expect of him ever since his magni= .icent characterization in “The Moon and Sixpense.” This role seems custom-made for him, allowing him to give free vent to the synical epigrams provided by the distinguished French literateur. Co-starring with Sanders are Angela Lanstury, who plays charmingly the Leautiful young widow he comes closest to loving, and Ann Dvorak, as the sophisticated woman of the world who helps him achieve his in- satiable ambitions. ————— FIFTEEN PERCENT ' OF ALASKAN VETS COMPLETE COURSE Of the 2,151 Alaska veierans who have at some time entered train- ing or education under the G.I.

Reasons for these training in- terruptions according to the V.A. were: Personal and others, 956; exhausted entitlement, 1; complet- ed training, 342; disabled veterans rehabilitated, 6; disabled veterans temporarily or permanently remov- ed om training status, 55. On the basis of estimated total | World War II veteran population ! in Alaska—9,000—approximately 23.9 percent of the veterans have to date enrolled in some form of ‘edu- cation or training under their war- earned G. 1. entitlement. .- — AT GASTINEAU Mr. and Mrs. Jacob White, J.
