PRISON NURSE"
 OPENS TONIGHT
 AT LOCAL SHOW
Marian Marsh, Henry Will eoxon Co., starred af
 Capitol Theatre

Prison Nurse" opens tonight at the Capitol. As the title suggests, it is a prison picture but one with a different plot, some excellent act ing, and unusual settings.
 Marian Marsh is a young nurse who is sent to a prison during a typhoid epidemic which follows a bad flood. With her are two other nurses. Bernadene Hayes and Min erva Urecal
 At the prison, Marian falls in love with young doctor who has been convicted of "mercy-death" Henry WilcoXon does an excellent DOT trayal of this character.
 Ben Welden, playing a desperate killer, engineers a prison break with the aid of Ray Mayer, also playing an inmate. They force Wilcoxon to go with them, so that he can per- form an operation on Welden's face once they are outside A guard is killed in the break.
 They are captured, and all but WilcoXen are killed. The doctor has no way of proving that he was forced into the break and he is convicted of the guards murder and sentenced to death.
 John Ariedge, another convict, and Marian, learn that Mayer kept a diary of everything he did. Mar ian finds this diary, and with it proves to the warden, played by Ad- dison Richards, and the district at torney, Frank Reicher, that Will coxson is innocent.
 The entire cast acquits itself nobly. James Cruze directed The screen play by Earl Felton and Sid ney Salkow is logical and believable
 Herman Schlom. the associate producer of Prison Nurse" has turned out an excellent picture for Republic Productions, Inc.

roads, and l53,000 miles of trails.
 Sicox stated: Under careful man. agement, and especially adherence to policy of treating the renewable resources as if they were crops to be harvested successively, rather than mines to be depleted and aban- doned, the National Forests can pro- vide continuously thousands of things used in every day life. They can help prevent major floods, will support an abundance of wildlife, protect the navigability of streams, and afford opportunities for recre- ation. They can assist industries, a productive agriculture, way of life, and help maintain services and products vital to the national de- fense."

Louisville, Ky, May 5 - (UP) - Given a dry and fast track tomor- row, Twenty Brands record for the Kentucky Derby will be equalled or bettered.
 Twenty Grand ran the mile and a quarter in POI 4-5 in 1881. That's boiling, boy, with 126 pounds on your back and the blue chips down. But it is liable to go before two more suns set and another Kentucky feudist bites the dust.
 This is why. Tomorrow's field is a perfect split, insofar as the good horses are concerned, between quick starters and fast finishers. Some thing is going to be running all the time. Take the Quick Lick Boy, for exampe = Fl Chico, Xalapa Clown, T. N. Dorsett and Johnstown. When the bell rings those four are going like dogs 1Jr food. They'll jump out of their stalls with sparks flying from their heels.
 That means blistering pace for the first half or three-quarters of a mile. Behind them, warming up slowly but getting hotter with every drive, will be Challedon, Technician and Heather Broom. If the hot-foot boys slow down, these three will be ready to pick up the pace. They like it down the strech, when the speed- Sters are flattening out and crying the equine equivalent of uncle.
 Quick goers and slow goers form the perfect combination for speed. The quick boys must hustle like hell to build up a lead that will stand-off a driving finish, and the slow boys must tr yto warm up a bit more quickly in order to be in position for a last minute drive.
 The record goes when lightning starter hangs on, or a slow starter tails the leaders close enough to strike when his running machinery finally gets oiled up.
 When Twenty Grand set his mark,

 Tonight
BY HUGO HooKJAB

A combination pr0feSSl0nal-ama- . teur boxing show is down on the books at Buckingham hall, and if it is half as good entertainment as the past three shows, and it prom iSeS to be, three will be little room for complaint, and much reason for looking forward to the first outdoor show at Randolph Cloves stadium, which has been renovated to accom- modate more people and now equip ped to handle crowds of close to D. 900 fans.
 Tonight's show at Buckingham hall may pave the way for a Eddie Mays-Dick Turcotte bout outdoors, surely a great opening go. Mays meets and hopes to beat Irish Tom my Grady of Springfield, a tough customer, who may give the Hart ford negro plenty of trouble. Tur- cotte is paired with Thompsonville Lou Blondi. If Mays and Turcotte prove to be convincing winners, and they should be, the natural is there for the asking. Whether or not it is made is something else aga1n, ana matcnmaker pTODleIl.

Mahoney meets Wa terbury's Sammy Craig, brother of Eddie Carr; Baginski goes in a re- turn bout with Billy Satyrb of Rock vile, while Jordan tangles with Joe Brosseau of this city, master-mind- ed by Modest Mike Genaro, as his chief and only second.
