DARING FEATURE, CAPITOL THEATRE A daring and powerful |offering, “The Fugitive,” opened at the Capitol Theatre yesterday to | <ring film-goers an inspiring story of conflict and devotion. | Stariing Henry Fonda, Dolores del Rio and Pedro Armendariz, the Argosy Pictures’ drama deals with |a courageous priest who braves the anti-clerical decrees of a small | Latin-American country to ministerl |to bhis flock. Hunted through the! ‘)urgles by a police officer deter- ‘mined to carry out his govern- {ment’s policy, the Father goes erenly on his way, holding masses, ening and burying as his duty 2 him. A beautiful Latin girl, a treach- erous mestizo and an* American cutlaw play leading parts in the gripping story. The girl hides the priest when the officers overtake | | him. Realizing his only safety lies |in flight, he crosses over to a neighboring country. But the halt- breed, spurred on by promise of a | reward, induces the priest to return land administer last rites to the dying outlaw, and thus brings about terrific climax. - 'ALL-SCHOOL PLAY “DEAR RUTH" AT | GYM FRIDAY NIGHT Tomorrow night is the night for the presentation of “Dear Ruth” by an all-school caSt at the Jun:au | high school gymnasium.

Thirty-seven cars checked through Tok Junction customs station bound for Anchor- y this week. “But the southbound tratfic is almost as heavy. We passed a steady stream of cars heading back south. Some of them called to us and told us not to go to Fairbanks or Anchorage as there were no jobs in Alaska and we would have to sleep in the streets.” Brummett d the Province of Alberta has banned all trucks larg- er than half-ton pickups, and all house trailers from their roads, due to “frost bumps” in the blacktopped highways.
