Union Secretary
Treasurer Undergoes
Eve Operation

DOUGLAS, ARIZONA, April 81
M. E. Travis, secretary-treasurer of
the international Union of Mine,
Mill and Smelter Workers, under
went an operation which it was
hoped would save an injured eye
ball. The injury was incurred April
20 when Travis was kicked in the
eye by a staff member of the
United Steelworkers of America in
radio station WILD at Bessemer,
Alabama.
The operating physician said he
hoped that the eyeball could be
saved as a result of his sewing up
ruptured tissues to stop a con-
tinuing herromhage. He had little
hope of saving any vision in that
eye.
Travis will be hospitalized in
BeSSemer at least two weeks, and
will be incapacitated for work two
months or more. His injuries in
cluded multiple bruises, decorations,
cuts and loss of blood. It was re-
! ported that he was struck over the
head with a heavy chair, then
kicked in the face repeatedly, beat
en- and stomped as he lay on the
floor. His face was literally 'un-
recognizable and his clothing
in blood the report reads.
The attackers, numbered eight
or ten, caught Travis alone in a
waiting room. Reported to have
been staff members of the United
Steelworkers, led by Nick Zonarich,
staff members of the CIO Southern
Organizing Drive, and former lead
ers of company unions at properties
of Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail-
road Company-now members of
the Steelworkers.
Other IUMM&SW officers and
members were threatened with
beating and death by the a m e
goons. Zonarich said to IUMM&SW
education director Graham Dolan:
"This is what the SteelworkerS are
going to do to guys like you all
over the country"
A 24-hour armed guard of
IUMM&SW m m b ers is being
maintained at Travis hospital room
because of threats to take him from
the hospital and Finish the job"

Roy's vocalizing with his musical

Like all other successful artists,
he finally got break. It came one

MacDonald) whose grief for her
dead husband has turned into an
excessive devotion for a spindling
son. When the boy Is killed. the
tortured woman retreats into the
solitude of a cottage located in
what might be the Great Smoky
Mountains.
Into this isolation wanders a
lanky mountain lad, a boy version
of the rural handy man. This
lad, played by Jarman, has as
deep a need for Miss Macdonald S
affection as she has for his, and
there is never any doubt that 1t
is going to end up exactly right.
The problem is to keep the end Of
the story from telescoping itself
into the beginning before Director
Thorpe has had time to shoot
sufficient footage to make a full
length film.
Mrs. Rawlings has been helpful
to the producers in this problem,
of course. She is a writer with a
sharp eye for the inner fiber OF
mountain people, and a keen ear
for their speech idiom. Since
some of the speech she records is
almost archaic. it makes refresh
ing listening for a brief while.
Since it also is extremely limited,
it also has a tendency to become
quickly monotonous.
Miss Macdonald, with a ward
robe designed exclusively by Irene,
cuts a strange figure among the
mountain folk of The Sun Comes
Up" a strangeness that is not
only noticeable to them, but even
more so to you. She and her sta
ton wagon with its Connecticut
south shore license, plus this
wardrobe, are up against a simple
exclusiveness that she cannot un-
derstand. Were it not for Lassle,
who plays great common de-
nominator, the singer and the
mountain people might never
have got together. Because Las
sic is friendly IN spite Of his Con-
necticut country background, the
breach is finally healed.
Mrs. Rawlings back country
types come off as rather strictly
stock under Thrope's direction OF
The Sun Comes Up
Most conspicuous of the lot is
Percy Kilbride as the general store
proprietor, and the best of the
various comedy figures on the
premises. Although his accent is
more New England than south
mountainish, his blunt way with
a truth has something of funny
sound to it as he tries to educate
Miss Macdonald in the art OF
being mountain woman.
He gets a slight assist in the
humor department from hawk
nosed Margaret Hamilton as a
naughty mountain woman VINO
distrusts city singers if for no
other reason than that they do not
know how to use snuff.

The tempo of 1.-THE Sun Comes
Up" is geared to that of the pic
lures setting, which is pretty
slow. Even Lassie has picked up
"a lazy mountain way Of going
about his business, the best bit Of
which is opening a door to free
the boy hero. trapped by fire in
the story's climactic sequence.
Miss Macdonald is more an ac-
tress than a singer in her assign
ment as heroine in The Sun
Comes Up," but she finds time for
three or four numbers, one OF
which is the "One Fine Day. from
Butterfly"
She makes chic sort of orna-
ment in the mountain settings OF
the Nationals picture.
