After watching this stirring pic- ture unfold, with all the dramatic intensity, vivid excitement and gripping romance of the book ac- centuated on celluloid, it is easy to understand why film audiences have been looking forward so long to this occasion. In the shadow of the famous Arch we meet refugees from many |lands overrun by dictators. Among them are Ravic, a great surgeonu from Austria, who, because he has entered Paris without a passport, earns his living by performing so- called “ghost” operations. Charles Boyer turns in a remarkable per- formance as the disillusioned, philo- sophical Ravic. Opposite him, Ingrid Bergman is cast as Joan Madou, an Italian girl | who earns a precarious living as a |night club chanteuse and film bit fplayer. Frightened of life as it then existed in the strange, secret heart of the City of Light on the very eve of its greatest degradation, it is to Ravic that she turns for love, for love, for happiness. NEWS ITEMS FROM SITKA (Special Correspondence) SITKA, Alaska, Dec. 4—The first School Band concert under the di- rection of musical director Walter Birkeland was given at the High School Gym Thursday evening and drew a critical audience, interested to compare what was being done now with the band's past fine per- formance under T. F. Jones. Comments were entirely favorable though comparison was hardly fair under the circumstances. Mr. Birke- {land has had less than three months to prepare his program and too many band members were mis- sing—either with mumps or through the flunk list. Especially enjoyed were the se- lections from the Persian Market in which Fenton Dennis and Na- tasha Calvin gave fine perform- ances with their solos. General opinion seemed to be that by the end of the year the band, in which Sitkans take justi- fiable pride, will be finer than ever. The choral numbers were ex- cellent but seemed a bit thin for lack of a strong bass section. How- ever, there are many fine, clear voices with a noticeable improve- ment in the soprano section. Decorations for the Senior Ball last night were lovely and suitable for the Christmas season. A canopy of Christmas tree icicles was sus- pended on wires crisscrossing from the balcony and small decorated pine trees were placed in the middle of the hall and round the sides. Adults will give a shout of joy when the school fashion of dancing in almost complete darkness passes To be sure the dim-out is mort flattering to us parents but we av- tend school dances for the sole pleasure of seeing our teen-agers in all their breath-taking glamour. Sitkans are pleased to learn that Dave Ramsay is being transferred to Sitka as Alaska Steamship Com- pany agent and will move here with his family shortly. Mr. Ram- say is expected to arrive this week to be joined by his wife and child- ren a few days before Christmas. They will take the Jack Conway house for a week, then move to the Miss L. M. Mills house now occu- pied by the Fred Arnolds. Mr. Ramsay became wellknown in Sitka during his years as purser on the Estebeth. Mr. and Mrs. Ben Forbes have | bought the Steelcraft pleasure cruiser from Mrs. W. C. Charteris and are planning many interesting improvements on the craft to les- sen vibration and noise as well as adding to its comfort. Mr. and Mrs. George Rohrer have bought the Charteris house located below the cannery and plan to get moved into it in time for the Christmas holidays. Dr. Isaac Knoll is moving this ‘weekend to his new offices in the downstairs converted apartment in the Cushing Building opposite the Cathedral. The Cushings have moved to the newly finished top floor apartment in the same build- ing. Mr. and Mrs. Al Richter have bought the Al Johnson home on B Street. Construction on the house was completed this ‘year and was occupied for only a few months by the Johnsons who plan to leave for the States.

Officers who will serve two-year terms include Albert F. Wheltle ot Baltimore, President. Two radical proposals were re- jected. One was a proposition to bar foreigners from AAU cham- pionship events. The other was a recommendation to permit an ath- iete to compete as an amateur in one sport and as a pro in another.

Eleanor Parker, Alexis Smith, Sydney Greenstreet and Gig Young top the bright cast. “The Woman in White” is gen-| erally considered the ace of all! thrillers, as it paved the way for modern “whodunits” way back over a hundred years ago when it was penned. Several story threads are worked into the elaborate plot, all coming together in a single line at the end when the black spell is killed' forever over Limmeridge | House.
