J. Cronin story. A striking departure from her wellâ€" remembered comedy characterizations, Miss Lombard‘s portrayal of the selfâ€" sacriff®ing angel of merey ranks as sacrifiing angel of mercy ranks as one of the most compelling dramatic interpretations ever offered on the screen. The dramatic scope of the role reveals new facets of the star‘s versaâ€" tility. Anne Shirley as the younger nurse who allows her sister to take the for a criminal carelessness only to redeem herself heroically in the end, zalled upon emotional reserve and gave an outstanding performance. Also adding conviction to this powerâ€" ful drama by A. J. Cronin, whose ‘"The Citadel" will be remembered by many, are the fine characterizations of Julien Mitchell, Robert Coote, Brenda Forbes, Rita Page and Peter Cushing. ‘anada at War‘" Also Beâ€" ing Shown .

This gives the electricians eight points and practically put the railroaders out of the race at the halfâ€"way mark, as they have only two points.

He has painted his picture in alternate bold, dark strokes and Might, deft touches as needed, the reâ€" }sult being a powerful yet exquisite preâ€" sentation of stark reality.
