GOOD BILL NOW AT CAPITOL FOR
 ] MORE NIGHTS

"Thc Bells of St, Mary's" open ed last night at the Capitol and is the feature bill for tonight, and also tomorrow.
 Producer-Director Leo McCarey's first production since his all-con- quering Going My Way" is de- lightful, and might well result in its stars, Bing Crosby and Ingrid Bergman receiving Academy awards for the second year in succession.
 Bing has the role of Father OMalley, newly appointed pastor of the somewhat run down parochial school of St. Marys, and Miss Berg man is seen as the Sister Superior, Sister Benedict, whose ideas as to the best methods of child training do not always coincide with those of the new pastor Though the nuns greatly outnumber him, Faith CT O'Malley manages to hold his own, thanks, chiefly, to the warm sense of humor existing within the walls of St. Mary's
 The story from beginning to end gives delightful entertainment.

MOUNT CLIMBERS
 LATADY, MILLER,
 LEAVE FOR SOUTH

William Latady and Maynard Miller, two of the Harvard Mount aineering Expedition, which this summer scaled Mt. St. Elias, left on the Princess Louise for Seattle.
 Latady and Miller are the last of the group to leave Alaska. Al though they finished their mount ain climb almost two months ago, the two climbers remained here to finish up specialized glacier work.
 Since their mountain climb they have covered approximately 60 gla- ciers, gathering data from which can be determined the procession and recession of glacial deposits here. These reports will be turn ed over to the American Alpine Club and the American Geographic Society.
 Latady will now return to liar yard University, and Miller to Columbia They will both con- tinue their study of geology at the universities.
 Latady and Miller are keeping their boards until all eight mem bers of the expedition have been interviewed by Life Magazine and New York Times. A full story of their expedition is being used by Life, the Times and in a Fox Movie tone newsreel to be released in the next few months.

perfected two secret weapons that
would play a powerful role in
wartime. The statement about
the weapons was in general

swiftly propelled aircraft. How
the rocket will be guided OF what
is the extent of its speed was not

The other weapon is of pro-
tective nature. 1t has undergone
many tests and has proved all its
inventor had claimed for it.
1t is an armor to be worn by
soldiers. The armor is made of
glass filaments and is so light it
does not interfere with a~soldier's
movements or tire him in wearing
it. No bullet, in the tests made.

Jews In Palestine Threaten
Revolt; British Reported To
Have Troops Ready For Attack
UNDERGROUND SAYS,
"BRITISH AND TIME
OUR ONLY ENEMIES;
WE MUST ACT now
,By Associated Press,

JERUSALEM, Aug. l5.--Jew-
ish underground, over a secretly
placed radio, call on all Jews in
Palestine today to revolt against
the British government.
During the same broadcast, the
spokesman said that the UNDER
ground had completed plans to
blow up the post office. British
authorities Immediately issued
orders to evacuate the post office
building, and for two hours there
after packages that had been
mailed were cautiously opened
and searched, but no explosives
were found. Then employees were
ordered back to the building.
But the British did not belittle
the threat of revolt. The under
ground called on all able-bodied
Jews to join in the threatened
fight against the British. THE
British and time are our only
enemies" the broadcaster assert
ed. I'VE must act quickly before
there is time for reinforcements
to reach here He also advised
all Jews to stop paying taxes.
The threatened outbreak is a
result of the transfer on Tuesday
of 1000 Jews, bound to Pales-
tine, to the island OF Cyprus. To-
day after the funerals of a girl
and two men who were killed in
the riot TUESDAY, while attempts
were made to stop ~. transfer r.
Cyprus, the crowds from the
cemetery marched down the
Kaingsway in Haifa toward the
waterfront to interfere with the
British, who were preparing to
ship another contingent of Euro
pean Jews to Cyprus. The Brit
ish. declared the Jews were with
OUT passports and were trying TO
enter Palestine illegally. .
British troops met the march
ers before they reached the
waterfront, and drove them back
only after five men were wound
ed.
1t was reported that the British
are prepared for the threatened
revolt. The number of British
troops available in Palestine was
not disclosed, but it was said it
ranged from $4,000 to 100000
well-equipped men.
