Four lives bound together by a com
 mon creed-No God-no sn--no future
 life. Two mer and two women torn by
 the conflict between loyalty and passion.
 Then the inevitable disaster-and for one of then, hessdlong plunge to death. Is the soul swept from the earth she moment it is freed from the body? Or
 does -earthbound-still share the vio- lent emotions which the living must en- dure? Does the personality change with death? How long do the old interests go on? Is tHere growth and progression after the shadowy barrier has been crossed
 Basil Kings "Earthbound' is a grip ping story Of personalities reaching back and fcrth across this barrier. It is . subject to which Basil King has devoted years of personal study. He brings to this great narrative an intimate knowl- edge of men and women, of their wants and emotional experiences.

 The year that it has taken in creation began 8 new era for the screen.
