Its prizefighter hero is no one-punch killer who mows down the opposition with eonsum- mate ease; he doesn't become champion; he isn’t taken up by a beautiful blonde society girl; he doesn’t come from behind in the Big Fight, after being beaten to a pulp, and knock his adversary senseless. “The Ring,” a United Artists re- lease starring Lalo Rios, Gerald jot slp oud ogee en sorbingly powerful story the brief rise and thudding fall of a sory boxer. Its suspense does not oune fighter rising. mircedlouly young mira to the top, but on the ponte career of an average boxér in the labyrinth of the fight game. Lalo Rios is éspecially convine- ing as an ambitious young boxer who moves along too quickly for his own good. His overconfidence after flooring his first few oppon- ents is typical of the average ring aspirant. His characterization is equally convincng however when he is floored by the champ after a promising start in the early rounds. Gerald Mohr, in the role of the fight manager, is a warm, sympathetic character who doesn't have the heart to tell his boy that he hasn’t got the stuff that makes a champion. Sparkling, lovely Rita Moreno gives a fine performance as the would-be champ’s girl. Kurt Neu- mann, veteran Hollywood director 2'sovel by trving’ Shulman wih a@ nov is excitement and puneb.

It/ visualizes the blood line as reveal- ed in the.Bible, beginning in the Garden of Eden and ending with our Lord Jesus Christ. Most Christians will candidly admit having only a hazy under- standing of the reason for the ex- eeedingly great value of the Blood of Christ, enough to pay for the sins of the whole world. To them, this picture is a welcome revela- tion that makes this vital subject clear and vivid. It is a film that bears repeating. Everyone is invited to attend and there is no admission charge.
