FRENCH FILM WELL RECEIVED; TO SHOW
 FINAL TIME TONIGHT

The first Alaska showing of the French film, "Farribique," was re- ceived with enthusiasm by last nights audiences. Second and final showing will take place tonight at 8 pm. in the l. o. O. F. Hall.
 The story is of a year in the life of a French peasant family, giving one the sensation of being on hand to watch births and deaths, love affairs and the sond family strength of the Farribiques. Threaded on the story of the old grandfather's determination to keep the ancient farm together, are moving and beautiful episodes: the love affairs of Henri, the division of the property, the coming of seasons.
 These latter, especially of spring are cinematic poetry. While the earth grows warm, the camera re- veals-through time-lapse photog- raphy-the dance of awakening growth in plants and blossoms. The film shares the feeling of some of "The Yearling'S' scenes of child hood and nature, the pictorial beauty of a Millet painting, and the realness of story by de MaupasSant.
 The French conversation is rapid and the accent difficult, but Eng fish titles convey all the story not obvious through photography.
 Duck hunting scenes and tech- niques were shown in the short which preceded the film, donated by Al Garbutt's Hobby Center.

The group which has IL experts
on it will have as basis for its
study, a report done by a group of
psychologists, sociolOgists. anthro-
biologists. jurists and historians.
The report which occupies some 81
pages does not deal with specific

Of prejudice because Of color, sex

CHARM
BY LOU SwARz

Now that you are ready for fun
year ahead in which you will have
every opportunity to express that
CHARM which we have discussed
weekly? Indeed you are,
So YOU start by knowing that all
about you help to make your life
fuller and happier, and enable you
to give more service in every way.
You know too that you have given
your body thorough water cleans
ing thus getting all the overdose of
eating and drinking of the Holiday
Season out Of your system. In case
you haven't done so, then 1t is new
er too late. Spend day drinking
just water. Yes, just water and as
much as you want. That way you
give yourself a much needed body
cleansing which is surely needed
after the Holiday rush.
Now you are ready to make up
your mind just what you will elm
mate from your list of thoughts
words, foods, etc, for 1850. 1t might
be a good thing to remember, See
no evil, say no evil, think no evil
and do no evil" In case you do that
there will not be anything to elm.
mate - unless it is in the food line.
And so often many of us should
eliminate some Of the foods which
we personally know are not good
for our bodies. We are told that
foods have a lot to do with the
alertness of the mind as well as of
the body, and it's time we were adj
herring to the things we know.
Make yourself a regular menu by
weeks. eating each day at regular
times and leaving off the between
meal and bedtime snacks. Try this
for a month and see how new you
feel and surely how good you will
look. Perhaps by that time If that
series of menus have left out so
many starches, all the sweets, and
those much too "gressy meats -
you will be satisfied to continue the
you know the Gaming of years can
be shielded" that is you will be-
come more youthful-looking by
watching your foods. And who
doesn't want to be more youthful
looking? Oh yes you do. So go to
work on your self now.
| Include in your menus plenty OF
green vegetables, fruits, and some
for moi food which will do away
with that laxative routine. However
If you just must have that laxative
to keep yuo well. then take same
under advice Of your physician; or
have you tried the morning glass of
| water into which you have squeezed
the Juice Of lemon? If not try it.
BY all means stay healthy to stay

NEW YORK - (ANP) Strange
ly enough, it's a 36-year old boxer
named Joe Louis, lately of the IBC
international Boxing Corp.,) family
who alone holds such box-office
glamour.
Colored and White writer's have
given their different viewpoints as
whether the serious-faced tan
destroyer" will ride out against Ez-
zard Charles, his successor, during
the months that lie ahead.
In like manner we have written
much in this connection. Louis eX-
hibition against tall and good look
ing AL Hooseman, considered a play
boy-fighter by many close observers,
might well make up the retired-un-

name is like Dempsey's.
Only Jack Dempsey in boXing's
long history has attracted paying
customers as has the former Ford
automobile worker out of Detroit. A
milliOn-bucks is an awful lot of
money and always will be. With
nearly a hundred thousand dollars
worth of debts around his head,
most of it due to the Income Tax
bureau as scribes have told you, the
announcement that the 36-year old
crusher will face Charles will sur
prise us not in the least. We would
like to see Joe Louis retire as of this
column for surely Negro business
giants could use the Louis name on
a fat salary-commission basis add
ing up to five figures. But the life
Louis has become accustomed to
with friends who talk big money in
his ears without having $4,000 a
year as their overall income seems
to blind the extitleholder to my sort

The guard pushed button that opened three

games were in full swing. The busy players
didn't notice him - until he flashed badge
and shouted:

the patrol wagons.
The wagons were called hastily by Wren's
assistant, Sergeant William Powell, who fol-
lowed the Captain inside. They had been
cruising when Wren spotted the place and
decided to investigate. He didn't have
search warrant but the house was chartered
as social club, and police have a right to
check on such charters.
