Thrills Galore Are In Film Saga Of North A blistering action-filled adven- ture drama set against the intri- guing background of the frozen North is “Alaska Seas,” the brand new Paramount film which opens Friday at the Strand Theatre. Star- ring a top-notch cast headed by Robert Ryan, Jan Sterling, Gene Barry and Brian Keith, “Alaska Seas” concerns itself with the tur- bulent battle that salmon fisher- men and sea-going hi-jackers wage for domination of the icy waters. On one side there is Brian Keith, leader of the independent fisher- men, who want only to ply their profession in peace. On the other side of the fence however, is the| nefarious modernday pirate, Gene Barry, who wishes to corner the} silver-finned salmon market for| himself. On the scene comes Rob- ert Ryan an adventurer who has just been released from prison. He is an old friend of Keith’s and goes to work for the independent fishermen, much against the lat- ters’ will, as they know his true nature, Further complicating the _rela- tion between Ryan and his friend, Keith, is the fact that they are both in love with Jan Sterling, the beau- tiful daughter of the local inn- keeper. Ryan had been her steady beau, but upon his departure from the territory Keith had supplanted him. Miss Sterling cannot make up her mind which one she really loves. Ryan becomes, first jealous, and then vindictive and soon joins forces with the pirate chief Gene Barry. It is then that the treacherous ice-filled waters become red with blood and fierce battle breaks out between the two opposing forces. In a crashing climax, with open warfare being fought against a of towering icebergs, the film comes to its exciting end. Seldom in the history of Holly- wood production has such a fero- ciously fought battle been enacted. “Alaska Seas” is a film that pro- duces chills that emanate not only from the frozen wastes which serve as its background but from the suspense generated from the plot as weil. All members of the stellar cast Perform in exemplary fashion. Robert Ryan is particularly win- ning in his role. “Alaska Seas” was directed by Jerry Hopper and was produced by Mel Epstein. The fast-paced screenplay was written by Geoff- ery Homes and Walter Doniger from a story by Barrett Willough- by. All in all, “Alaska Seas” shap- €s up as an action drama that will please movie goers of all types | and tastes. Many bears have a third eyelid whieh is transparent and can be used like sunglasses for protec- tion against glare. ° LEGAL NOTICES ORDINANCE NO, —_ COMMISSION SERIES AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SUB-PARAGRAPH (E) OF SEC- TION 34.3 OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF KEY WEST, FLORIDA, 1952, RELATING TO ZONING IN RESIDENCE “A” DISTRICTS IN THE CITY OF KEY WEST, FLOR- IDA, BY AMENDING SAID PARA- GRAPH TO PERMIT A VARI- ANCE THEREIN, NAMELY, THE BUILDING OF A STRUCTURE] ON THE SOUTHERLY SIDE OF THE PREMISES COMMONLY KNOWN AS 3608 DUCK AVENUE IN THE CITY OF KEY WEST, FLORIDA, FIVE FEET FOUR INCHES FROM THE SIDE LINES OF SAID PROPERTY; REPEAL- ING ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES PROVIDING WHEN ORDINANCE GOES INTO EFFECT.
