METROPOLITAN" Legion Of the
Condemned"

"The Legion of the Condemned"
showing at Crandall's Metropolitan
Theater this week, is easily one Of
the best pictures that Washington has
been offered in many a day. Here,
indeed. Is every element of human pas
sion, every characteristic personality af-
sords, blended with crime, love and hero
ism into really thrilling and romantic
story. While so many war picture
attempts have fallen by the wayside
because they failed to offer enough
variety of newness TO interest a rather
'war-torn" public. this one is different,
and because it is different it's worth
while. The Legion of the Condemned"
stands high in the first rank Of pro-
auctions that the war has given us.
I The story, briefly: Men from every
corner Of the universe, either crossed
in love, hunted by society or just un-
usually adyenturesome, offer their serv-
ices to the allied cause and are organ

souls" Theirs is TO be the supreme
