If there was any truth in and

never in his life had he ever

The mob scene which pre-

The spark that set the glow of freedoms light
Ablazing DER the ramparts of this land;
That spark which steeIs the will of men oppressed
Coursed through the veins of Attacks and his band
No battle armor shielded their mortal fame
No plumeS implied the order of their rank;
Yet, fearlesSly they faced the foemans charge
Until beneath his crushing blow they sank
Thus on that day brave Attucks blood was shed;
The first to pay the supreme sacrifice
For that which planted New Englands shores
Was destined to become a state of bliss
Ger all this land! For men of every race
A heritage for which their fathers fought;

The Liberty for which they yearned and sought!

very successful in movies he's
never really hit star status.
Most of the time he has been
the heavy. He's hopeful his

may give him the recognition
needed for sympathetic roles
and stardom.
"This finishes my regular

I'm doing the series, except
for about one picture a year."
