DRAMA OF DARE DEVIL PILOTS lS
 FEATURED HERE
Test Pilot" Ends lis Run Tonight al Capitol
 Theatre

Modern motion picture magic has brought a new kind of aviation film to the screen, one that glorifies the man who lays a floor in the sky so that future generations can go to bed in safety
 It is Test Pilot dedicated to those men who gamble their lives against the airworthiness of a de- signer's dreams. Ending tonight at the Capitol Theatre, it impressed the audience with spectacular flying scenes, thrilling power dives and a breath taking romance.
 Metro Goldwyn-Mayer spare q nothing in making their first avia tion film in more than two years. saga of civilian flying. They gave it four stars in Clark Gable, Myrna Loy, Spencer Tracy and Lionel Barrymore. They provided authentic and realistic flying sequences which could only have been made at legiti- mate flying fields. They presented a story, by Lieutenant-Commander Frank Wead, which eneompassed the life of a typical test pilot.
 The story, against a background of the most spectacular flying ever attempted, concerns a daring flier who. in an attempt to break the transcontinental speed mark, lands in a Kansas wheatfield, meets Miss Loy and carries her off as his wife. His adventures as racing flier and test pilot provide the three -cornered triangle in which the wife is con- fronted by a nameless lady, who lives in the sky"

To strike down the bulwark of the

panic and fear of indescribably dan

Mr.. Roosevelt has been importuned
to lay aside his hymns of hate and his

To persuade such man the people
must assert their disagreement. This
they can do directly by communicat-

| sky projects through the mouths OF
two of his characters, Shigalov and
Verhovensky, a picture of the coming
state, that is weirdly descriptive of
what has actually come to pass.
Shigalov says:
"Dedicating my energies to the study
Of the social organization which Is
in the future tos replace the present
| condition of things, I have come to
| the conviction that all makers OF
social systems from ancient times to
the present have been dreamers, tell
ers of fairy tales, fools who contra

nothing of natural science and the
strange animal called man. Plato,

OF social organization is essential.

thing like the Garden of Eden. They
will have to work. however. The
measures for depriving nine-tenths Of
mankind Of their freedom and trans

highly logical"
Later Verhovensky, celebrating on
"Shigalovism," says
"Shigalov is man of genius. (.
He has discovered equality!
He suggests a system of spying.
Every member Of the society spies
on the other. and it is his duty to in
form against them. Every one belongs
to all and all to every one. All are
slaves and equal in their slavery. In
extreme cases Shigalov advocates SLAM
der and murder, but the great thing
about it is equality. To begin with,
the level OF education, science and
talents Is lowered A high level of
education and science is only possible
for great intellects, and they are not
wanted. They will be banished
or put to death. Cicero will have his
tongue cut out. Copernicus will have
