IS FEATURE AT | CAPITOL THEATRE “Stars in My Crown,” at the Capi- tol Theatre, is a tenderly-unfolded, heartwarming story of a small Southern settlement at the close of the Civil War and of a two-fisted preacher who leads the way in r ing his community a better place in which to live. The picture has been beautifully cast, with Joel McCrea's portrait of the parson, who can preach with ais fists as well as with words, one | of the most satisfying character- izations he has ever attempted. Ellen Drew is excellent as his in- dustrious young wife, with Dean Stockwell winning many of the laughs in the role of little John who would like always to be summer so that there would be no chool. Standing out in a large ,npg)ol't-’ ng cast are Alan Hale as the p: son’s staunch supporter, Lewi Stone as the beloved Doc Harris, 3r., James Mitchell as the son who | follows in his footsteps. “Stars in My Crown” will be at the Capitol tonight and Friday for he benefitt of the Parent-Teachers Association scholarship d. , Mr. ather 'LAST CHANCE TO GET TYPHOID SHOTS WILL BE TOMORROW A.M.
