Such is the jcase in Republi¢’s “That's My Man” iwhich is at the Capitol Taeatre for llast showing tonight. { Paced by Borzage's direction, Don Ameche gives a warm, responsive, {performance in the lead role of Joe Grange, an inveterate gambler with a fondness for the horses Flaying opposite Ameche is the engaging newcomer, Miss Catherine jMeLeod, who zoomed to stardom in {her initial Republic picture, “I've QAlwny; Loved You." For an actress charming Miss McLeod displays an amazing maturity in the concep- rtion of her role as Ronnie, the gam- ‘bler's wife. Willing to share Joe's love with his obsession for a fleet- sfooted colt, Ronnie -quits him when his mania threatens the well-being jof their family life. A ! Without giving the ending away, thus spoiling the enjoyment of the !many people who will flock to see {“That's My Man,” it is enough to isay that the troubles of Joe and iRonnie resolve themselves in a 'manner in keeping with the tauntly- ,written script. |KEITH WILDES LEAVE FRIDAY FOR TOP CLUB MEETING,W.VIRGINIA \ On their way to White Sulphur |spnngs.

Dr. Googe stated that one of the tragic qonditions noted at each hospital was the large number of !people with tuberculosis awaiting ibeds. Another was the large number of children with tuberculosis of the {spine, other bones and joints, who need services for orthopedic condi- tions. At Bethel, Googe said that there were eleven children with {kone tuberculosis, who are awaiting fcare. ‘The team was met by local medi- cal groups at Juneau, Fairbanks, Anchorage, Seward and Mt.
