Ever since its New York open-| | ing, critics as well as moviegoers |have been unanimous in their| 1prnxse of this unusual blending of | Alexandre Dumas’ classic love story, | “Lady of the Camellias,” glorious music of Verdi's opera. The renowned Dr. Sigmund | Spaeth has referred to “The Lost One’ ‘as “unquestionably the best presentation of grand opera yet to reach the screen.” Other film and | music authorities have hailed the production as an entirely new ex- perience for movie audiences. Heading the large cast are Nelly |Corradi and Gino Mattera as the | star-crossed pair whose |has been celebrated the world over who love. Although sung entirely in Italian, their story is told m ’Engllsh. { The libretto for “The Lost One” was written by F. M. Piave. Hector | Panizza conducted the orchestra | 'and chorus ‘of the Rome Opera | | House which provides the musical | | background in support of the prin- |cipals.” The film was directed by Carmine Gallone for producer 1 Gregor Rabinovitch.

He has been stationed at Anchorage and for the past two months at Seward. He was with the Juneau office a few years ago and the family have many friends here. Recently Deering acquired an in- terest in the Homer Spit Packing Company near Homer on the Ke- nai Peninsula and will be associ- ated with its operation next sum- mer.
