ROTARY SHOW I5BIGFEATURE OF THIS WEEK

Whole Towns Talking" the three act comedy which the Juneau Rotary Club is presenting on Thursday and Friday of this week, shapes up as the best evenings entertainment to be seen in thise city in long while, This is the opinion of those persons who have watched the present pro duction develop over the past month and who know it now to be ready for presentation.
 Under the direction of Mrs. Kath- crime Nordale, who has had wide ex- perience as coach and teacher of dramatics, the cast of dozen tal- ented and well known local men and women has been molded into a smooth working outfit.
 ITO say that Whole Towns Talk ing will have the whole town talk ing by the end of the week is no mere play on words said Brooks Hanford, General Chairman for the Rotary Club. This play is very amusingly written and it certainly | is going to be expertly handled by our local cast. Juneau will have ev- cry reason to be proud of the re- suits, I am sure"
 Hanford called attention to the fact that almost every member of both the Lions Club and the Rotary Club have tickets to sell. In addi- tion they may be purchased from J. B. Burford Co.,, Juneau Drug Co.,, Harry Race, Druggist, The Baranof Hotel, The Gastineau Hotel, Par sons Electric Co.,, Sanitary Meat Co.,, and Twentieth Century Meat Mar ket, as well as a number of other places of business about town.
 Tickets for servicemen are pric- cd at only 80 cents (including tax) :. Perhaps the most convenient place for most servicemen to buy them will be at the USO-of which, incl dentally, the Assistant Director, Aida Matheson, has an important role in the play.
 No seats for either night are re- served. Since it seems likely the house will be sold out for both per- formances, it will be to ones advan- tage to reach the Coliseum well be- fore the o'clock curtain time.
 All proceeds will inure to the benefit of the local Scouting pro- gram.

''BERNADETTE"IS IS EPIC PRODUCTION
 AT 10TH CENTURY

As long as the human heart has the power to feel, to love, to suffer, to triumph. The Song of Berna- dette" will be remembered as a great motion picture, wondorously con- ceived and enthrallingly unfolded
 It is beyond all question the full fillment of all you had hoped it would be ,. beyond all comparison in it's emotional sweep and power beyond all conception in the mirac- ulous spell it casts over all who saw it yesterday at the 20th Century, where it had it's premiere.
 Accolades will be bestowed-and with a lavish hand-upon the 20th Century-Fox for the remarkable manner in which it has bridged the transition from the novel to the screen. Great and universally be- loved as was Franz Werfels story of "Bernadette" between book covers, it is infinitely greater and more compelling as a motion picture.
 In the title role of the Maid of Lourdes, Jennifer Jones makes the most suspicious debut in Hollywood history. Here is a star-and one who has flared into being with a brilliance that shines with the mark or greatness.
 Matching Jennifer Jones per- formance are the featured members of the cast William Eythe, Charles Bickford. Vincent Price. Lee J, Cobb and Gladys Cooper.
 Owing to the length of this fea- ture, only one show each night start ing at 8 o'clock.

 That swift advance is well under way, with General Patch's Seventh Army tanks within 45 miles of the Nazi Congress city of Nuremberg, where he could cut one of the two main trunklines from Berlin through Munich to the Brenner Pass.
 A security blackout still yelled the surging advances of the British Second Army toward north German ports, but Berlin said the Tommies had advanced more than thirty-five miles past the Westphalian capital of Muenster, to a point south of Bielefeld. At that point, the Brit ish would be 250 miles from Berlin

The citation reads: "Pilot Officer

over Los Catelliers, his right arm
was shattered by shell fragment.
Although suffering from intense
pain and loss of blood, he did not
inform his captain of his wounds
until the target had been success
fully bombed.
"One of the crew members then
rendered first aid, but this officer
refused to have morphia admins
tered, in order that he might con-
tinue with his duties. 1t was not

pany, has been cancelled for over
seas duty.
Robson, according to reports
from the war department and USO
Camp Shows, is slated to go, how
ever, as concert artist to entertain
overseas GIs in song programs.
The cancellation of Othello for ov-
erseas entertainment was brought
about by misunderstanding of the
terms. The war department thought
the troupe could make the trip on
the usual six-month period. When
informed that the players were
available for only IA weeks and
wanted assurance of returning to
the states by that time, a checkup
was made with Europe, which took
two weeks.
Some of the secondary players in
the meantime took on commercial
contracts and the difficulty of find
ing replacements was considered
too difficult to carry out the plans
to send the -Othello troupe over.

POWELL EXPLAINS HOW
P0LLTAx REPEAL Will AID
BOTH RACES OF The SOUTH

WASHINGTON, June FL (ANP)
Prior to the passage of the anti
poll tax bill last week Rep. Adam
Clayton Powell of New York made
a direct appeal to southern con-
gressmen on how the repeal of poll
taxes will benefit the poor white
man of the south as we'll as the Ne
gro.
''This nation will never achieve
full stature until the whole south is
free," he said. "The south can never
start the upward march to political
freedom until the chains of poll tax
are broken.
"These chains will be broken
either here or by the new white man
together with the new black man.
The cavalcade of the common man
is moving up freedom road. They
will not be satisfied any longer with
second class democracy. They
fought to make the world safe. They
intend to have democracy here
now"
Many southerns, including rep
resentatives from Texas, Alabama
Tennessee and Kentucky, joined the
ranks of anti-poll takers following
Powell's speech.
