They are ord-, ered to Santa Fe to ride with aj | wagon train bound for St. Louis with $1,000,000 in gold bullion for the federal treasury. McCrea is instructed to lead the | train into a trap where the Quan- trell forces will ambush it and steal the gold for the Confederacy. McCrea falls in love with Arlene Dahl, a passenger on the trip, con- | sequently changing his sympathies for the guerrillas. There is splenderous Technicolor photography which captures some spectacular Western scenery, and assorted attractions including In- dian raids and guerrilla warfare. It's a sterling credit for Producer Richard Goldstone and Director Roy Rowland. The picture also brings back to the screen the famed star of the silent era, Ramon Novarro, in his finest role since then. McGRATH LEADS FIELD IN CANCER CRUSADE, SAME AS LAST YEAR For the second consecutive year the little town of McGrath on the Kuskokwim River leads the field in the Cancer Crusade for Alaska. Mc- Grath, first community to submit a final report in the current Can- cer Crusade, rang up a total of $500 for its contribution toward Cancer Control. 5 This is according to announce- ment made today by the Rev. R. Rolland Armstrong of Juneau, Ter- ritorial Crusade Chairman. “We be- lieve,” Mr. Armstrong said, “that McGrath’s contribution bids fair te become the highest per capita con- tribution in the entire United States. There are less than 150 residents in McGrath and a per capita contri- bution of more than $3 is a good target for any community to shoot at.” Mrs. Pearl Laska, director at large of the Alaska division of the American Cancer Society, handled the Crusade for McGrath, as she did last year, but she raised the ante 25 percent for 1950. Last year's contribution was $400 and its also Simultaneously with the release Jof the McGrath story, Mr. Arm- strong reminded Alaskans that the | Cancer Crusade in Alaska will ex- tend through May. Crusades are al- ready under way in other com- munities, Juneau is expected to ring the starter’s bell early next week with Charles W. Carter, local | chairman., EMBLEM (LUB WILL MEET TONIGHT AT 8 All pertinent business of this | season will be cleared up and plans made for next fall, at the meeting tonight of Juneau Embiem Club No. 90. | Members will gather at 8 o'clock {in the Elks' Hall for the last dist Community Church.
