OLD GLORY OVER TWO

The high point of the week and

tactical conquest OF that island

most costly amphibioHs operation
of the whole Pacific war Mop
ping-up' operations are now in
progress,
Twenty thousand Japanese were
estimated as having been killed.
Though American casualties ad-
mittedly may be large, it was eX-
pected that in proportion TO the
number OF men engaged the per-
centaee OF killed would be no
greater than at Tarawa, Saipan
or Peliliu.
Thus, the tactics OF the Jap

be a failure, but resulted in the
utter collapse OF their strategy
based on the belief that the ratio
Of deaths would so wear down the
American invaders as 10 make the
cost of victory prohibitive. Actu-

SOULS AT SEA"
OPENING TONIGHT
AT 10Th CENTURY

Pictures most famous soldier-o of
fortune, stalwart Gary Cooper, comes
to the screen again as an adventur-
er in what is among the most pow
erful roles of his distinguished career
in Souls at Sea-" the epic of the
sea which opens tonight at the goth
Century Theatre.
Cooper plays the hero of a true
story in Souls at Sea-. somewhat
similar to the true life roles he
portrayed in Pride of the Yankees"
and Sergeant York" In Souls at
Sea- he re-enacts the role played in
real life by "Nuggin" Taylor. a sea
captain of the 40's. whose famous
trial for manslaughter on the high
seas is one of the oceans most amaz-
ing ana thrilling true tales. Cooper
is supported by George Raft, Fran
ces Dee, Henry Wilcoxon, Harry
Carey Olympic Bradna, Robert Cum
mings, Porter Hall and many other
noted featured players.
Cooper's prototype, "Nuggin', was
"a passenger aboard the brig will
lam Brown" when that ship made
her last voyage from Liverpool to
New York. Among the passengers
was his sweetheart, played by Miss
Dee, and his constant companion,
played by Raft. In mid Atlantic
the vessel caught fire under the most
mysterious circumstances. Her mas
ter, portrayed by Carey, was killed
and because of his rank "Nuggin"
assumed command. Despite the eff
forts OF the ships company to stem
the fire it soon became apparent
that the vessel was lost and that the
entire company must take to the two
small boats, wholly unable to handle
the large number of survivors.
The remainder of the story must
be seen to get the gripping finish.
