DOUBLE FEATURE
 STARTS TONIGHT
 AZ CAPITOL BILL

Republics latest Judy Canova starring picture. Sleepy Lagoon" which opens at the Capitol Theatre tonight is a riotous comedy run on strictly up-to-the-minute lines.
 In the midst of all the fun, there are many incidents which give rise to the thought that it might pos sibly happen here. but the story is so deftly woven that the com- monsensical at times is hardly dis tinguishable from the nonsensical, and the whole effect is grand en- tertainment in the very best Judy Canova tradition.
 Judy herself is magnificent, clowning, singinng and dancing through the picture with that Igawky abandon which makes her so popular, and she has an alder and abetter in Dennis Day who would be hard to beat. His dumb

In the same period 176 German

The lower toll of the Germans
was due chiefly to the fact that they
had few planes up to shoot down.
1t is likely that large part of the
Allied losses resulted from antiair-
craft fire rather than from enemy
fighters.
An important factor in the ap-
pralsal is that the Allied forces
were engaged in great offensive
operation using large number of
necessarily unarmed transport
planes. The tally does not include
glider ships either in the number
