It seems that the inside news in Germany is that the invasion of Britain is already under way. The German pilot was so conâ€" vinced of this that he could not be induced to believe it was not so. It is readily understandable that by the manufacture of news the Nazi reâ€" gime is able to maintain the awe and respect of the German people, though the inhabitants of Berlin must have some doubts as they shiver nightly in the capital‘s air raid shelters. The thought of what the effect upon Gerâ€" man morale will be when they realize they have been tricked may give Hitler some unquiet moments. Jock MaoPherson and family sat down to Sunday dinner, Pritish 30, that wasn‘t the way the CGerman people heard it. They were toll that 150 British planes had been downed at a cost of only 30 lost by the Nazi air force. This habit of reversal may be the explanation for the report issued from Berlin that a Canadian transport had been sunk with all on boarnrd. It was issued obviously to covâ€" er the sinking of a German transport in the Kattaget on Monday. Unforâ€" tunately for the Goebbels machine, the sinking of the Germans transport with 4,000 men was witnessed by Swedish fishermen and reported to the world. On the cther hand the British Admirâ€" alty has been able to report that not a transport was sunk and not a soldier lost in the transfer of all the Canadian trcops that have gone to Britain.

Returning to the popular literature of many decades for the source of their second production, Gene Towne and Graham Baker selected .‘"Tom Brown‘s School Days," Thomas Hughâ€" es‘ absorbing portrait of English school life,, to succeed their initial producing venture, "Swiss Family Robinson." Important Role That was the beginning of Doug‘s success. But he continued to battle the bugaboo. "Green Hell," is his eighth important production since making that break,. Among the top players supporting Fairâ€" banks and Miss Bennett in this proâ€" duction are John Howard, Alan Hale, George Bancroft, George Sanders, Vinâ€" cent Price and Gene Garrick. As soon as Tom meets Flashman Rugby‘s prize ruffian, Tom becomes the target of the bully‘s illâ€"nature which is abetted by a rowdy clique known as the Sporting Set. They invade Tom‘s study and consume the jams cakes and fruit which he brought from home. When Tom, in accomdance with cusâ€" tom has to solo sing with stopping, Flashman slingâ€"shots a walnut into Tom‘s cheek. Flashman is punished for his act, but later takes it out on Tom in a blanketâ€"toss to the ceiling Tom sustaining a broken leg. East, toc, is victimized in a roasting over an open fireplace. The indignities pile high, and Tom, East and their classmates launch an offensive against the Sporting Set They retaliate with harmless but disâ€" comforting pranks. East prepares a selfâ€"incriminating written recitation for Flashman, which earns the bully an instructor‘s birching. _ The younrsgsters turn the rowdies‘ rcom topsyâ€"turvey, upsettinge the furniture and defacing the walls. Finally Tom, challenges Flashman to a fist fight, which sets off a series of actionful adventures, recapâ€" tured in the movies with all the thrill and Gdrama and amusement which marked the book. A feature about the picture, "Green Hell," is that despite its name there are many scenes of remarkable beauty. Thomas Hughes wrote "Tom Brown‘s School Days," to glorify the work of Dr. Thomas Arnold, the headmaster at Pugby when Tcm Brown attended, and under whom Hughes studied. Arnold introduced a series of revolutionary methods in education, principally the honcur system throughout the world.
