Drama of City Life

Twenty -four hours of throbbing
life in city street. paved with

tragedy, romance and heartaches,
thunders across the screen in Sam
ueI GoldWyn's production of Dead
End" which begins two day en-
gagement at the Kootenai theatre

cast in this powerful human story
based on the stage hit by Sidney
Kingsley as produced by Norman
Bel Geddes, which set records in
its Broadway run and then was
Echeered from coast to coast.
Miss Sidney has her greatest role
as Drina, the girl who valiantly
fought losing battle to keep her
little brother Tommy from the gang
ster's fate ahead of him and to raise
them both out of the slums.
McCrea is seen as Dave, the poor
architect she loved, who dreamed
of tearing down all the tenements in
the world, and loved the beautiful
Kay, played by Wendy Barrie. who
had found way out of the slums
into penthouse luxury.
Humphrey Bogart plays Baby
Face Martin the killer, drawn back
from his gangland haunts to the
slum where he was spawned, by ar
irresistible yearning to see his mother
and his hoyhood sweetheart. Fran
cey, once more-who faced the cole
steel of the G-men's bullets, all te
find that his mother hated the very
sight of him and that Francey hac
taken life the easiest way.

Notes of High School.

Plans are being made for partlcl-
patton of the glee club in the first
Lincoln County music festival to be
held in Libby on April rs. Be
tween 60 and 70 are busy under Ben
Frost's supervision. To meet the
expense of getting the chorus to
Libby, a concert will be given on
March ID to raise funds.
The game Saturday night was a
fast one-rather rough at times but
the boys played a clean game on
both sides. In fact, the teams showed
far superior craftsmanship to the
crowd who lost their heads and
gave despicable boos at times. This
is to be lamented for it did not ex-
press the attitude of the school
which was rather expressed by one
of the team members who said, IF
| were referee. I'd stop the game the
first time | heard a boo The score
was Is to Is in favor of Lincoln
although the score was tied just
two minutes before the game ended.
Lincoln will play Columbia Falls
here on Thursday night and Flat
head here on Saturday night.
Next week Lincoln will play St
Matthews here on Thursday night
and Libby here on Friday night.
