CRITICS DISAGREE: 1t is
not only the daily critics who
disagree on the merits of a
given production. We quote
from the newest movie ratings
of the Film Estimate Board of
National Organizations on the
subject of Attack"
American Jewish Committee
and Parents Teachers Associa-
zion: Award star rating to this
picture as gripping dramatiza-
ton of a unique and individual
situation.
Daughters of the American
Revolution: DiSapproves Of the
film because of the bad light in
which the Army is placed.
General Federation Of Wom-
ems Clubs: We feel that this is
a melodramatic portrayal of a
situation which. we hope, is
purely fictitious.

A fascinating stranger is at
work inside you from the

Fascinating because in

most complicated machines
that science can devise, yet
serves through the centuries
as a symbol of love, courage
Selflessness.
A stranger because we
know so little Of this great
and vital force on which our
every breath depends.
This is your heart. 1t is the
essence of a human being.
For periods ranging up to
more than a century, the
toughest muscle in the his

workhorse function, night and

around the calendar. When
you ask much of your heart,
your heart responds. When
you rest, 1t rests too but
never completely.
Used and abused through
long lifetimes, the heart is
living testimonial to the
toughness Of tissues, muscles,
veins, arteries. 1t is one Of
the wonders of our universe
that the heart does as much
and as well as it does.
Our poets, authors and
our lovers constantly pay
