POLI'S

History in the making has been immortali2ed on cellulold by Repub- lie in its picturization of the heroic exploits of the flyers in Generalis- simo Chiang Kai-Chek's American Volunteer Corps. Plying Tigers, which is the current attraction on the Loew Poll screen, with John Wayne, Anna Lee and John Carroll in the leading roles, tells Q dramatic story of the lives and loves of the men who meet Death face to face in the skyways over Burma.
 The boys in the A. V. G. joined the Burma Road patrol originally as Soldiers of fortune" eager for adventure and not averse to the large salary and bonus Generals. simo Chiang- -Ka!-Shek pays them for bagging Japanese planes. But once in the service, they become i'm. bued with more lofty motives, onc' they realize the heroism of the Chi' nese nation, fighting for its freedom
 John Wayne plays the role oi Squadron Leader Jim Gordon, whc has chalked up an impressive show ing in spite of being outnumbered three to one by enemy planes. But he realizes that his command can- not continue on courage alone, and to fill out his depleted ranks he drafts Into service his old friend Woody Jason-played by John Car roll.
 Woody immediately wins the Ill will of his fellow flyers by his cocky egotism and his bluntly mercenary motive for joining the group. In his zeal to lose no time in bagging Jap planes and winning the $500 bonus he goes into an aerial dog-fight un- trained and unarmed, and succeeds

STRAND

Getting entirely away from the fluffy type of the usual story of col- lege campus, here Is a heartWar!n- ing drama that is replete with dra- matte and moving situations. "Se. crets of q Co-Ed", @ drama from the P. R. o. studio, features that sensa- tional young discovery, Tina Thay- CT, who scored instant success as the sweetheart Of Mickey Rooney in "A Tank at Eton". The unique story re- vealing the young Co., Eds secret romance with a gangster opened to- day at the Strand theater,
 Otto Kruger lends the weight of his superb acting to the part of a criminal attorney, father of Miss Thayer. Unknown to his daughte, and the world, he Is the secret boss of the underworld. His front mar and Q dangerous killer is Rick Val. lin, handsome young Lothario witt Q yen for new faces-if they art pretty.
 He meets Tina, and she falls over. whelmingly in love with him. To the gangster, here is a new thrill-ro. mancing with girl of the upper crust.
 When he discovers that she is the daughter of his boss, he realizes
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-11-07

what an advantage he has over the criminal attorney, especially when the chief starts to discipline him for killing and he doesn't like it,
 From this point onward to the nerve-tingling climax, events move with dramatic force. They cul- minate in the murder trail of Miss Thayer on circumStancial evidence, for the killing of Rick Vallin. Her attorney Is her own father, who gives one of the greatest courtroom speeches ever heard on the screen as he pleads to save the life of his child.
 Rick Vallin looks like further star, for he has looks, acting ability and way about him that girls will adore. Russell Hoyt plays Miss Thayer's campus boyfriend. Others in the cast are Marcia Mae Jones, Geraldine Spreckles, and Latin bombshell named Diana Del Rio.
 Also on the same program is an- other great screen hit called "The Old Homestead, with the Weaver Brothers and Elivery.
