The story has great possibilities to become a very good motion picture, but enough was left out of it that such cannot be expected. Robert Preston and Nancy Kelly share the leading spots in the cast. Not a great deal is known by the general public concerning the ac tivities of this baby unit of the army and the scenes showing the men in action executing their jumps are quite outstanding. The story overbalances the photogra phy so much that the result is not especially good. IT’S TRUE! By Wiley Padar donAmeche ‘ STARRED win!

The challenge of this question— answered too often negatively fol lowing the last war—is being met positively by the University of Iowa with a far reaching plan for financial assistance to former stu dents who will return to study after war-service. Enthusiastically applauding the Iowa plan and urging its adoption throughout the country, James Ward, Coordinator of College Ac tivities of the Division of Youth Activities of the Office of Civilian Defense, declared: “The Iowa plan goes a long way towards solution of one of the knottiest student problems arising from the current war situation. It is hoped that oth er colleges and universities will consider their plan thoughtfully.” “If similar plans are adopted on other campuses, thousands will be brought back, and the shock of re habilitation will be cushioned,” commented Loren Hickerson, col umnist for the Daily Iowan, college paper.

When this young lady starts talking airplanes, brother, you’d listen, too ... just like these students above. Flying Instructor PEGGY LENNOX says: AND WHEN she calls you up for that final "check flight,” you’d better know your loops inside and out. It’s strictly regulation with her. mmm YES, and with Instructor Peggy Lennox, it’s strictly Camels, too—the flier’s favorite. "Mildness is a rule with me,” she explains. "That means Camels.” The smoke of slower-burning Camels contains 28f« LESS NICOTINE than the average of the 4 other largest-selling brands tested— less than any of them—according to independent scientific tests of the smoke itself! if • "EXTRA MILD,” says Instructor Peggy Lennox. "Less nicotine in the smoke,” adds the student,*as they talk it over —over Camels in the pilot room at the right. Yes, there is less nicotine in the smoke...extra mildness... but that alone doesn’t tell you why, in the service... in private life... Camels are preferred. No, there’s something more. Call it flavor, call it what you will, you’ll find it only in Camels. You’ll like it! CAMEL THE CIGARETTE OF COSTLIER TOBACCOS BY BURNING 25% SLOWER than the average of the 4 other largest- selling brands tested —slower than any of them —Camels also give you a smoking plus equal, on the average, to 5 EXTRA SMOKES PER PACK!
