DAVID JACK HOLT First Run . of Much - Talked Picture; Walt Disney Color Film Shown "Thunder in the East,!T form erly known as "The Battle," and probably the most talked-of Pic ture of the season comes to the State theatre for three days start ing today on its first Salem run. Charles Boyer. Merle Oberon and John Loder have the leading roles in this Leon Garganoff pro duction, presented by Al Licht man and released through United Artists. Based on "The Battle," popular pre-war French novel by Claude Farrere, the film tells in dram atic fashion the deeply moving story of the noble Marquis Toris- aka, a Japanese naval commander, whose intense patriotism Impelled him to sacrifice his beautiful wife Mitsuka to Fergan, a handsome English officer, for the glory of his country. The story links two conflicts one in the soul of Torisaka, the other the contest between two riv al battle fleets. The battle scenes, which offer ft thrilling climax to the under current of conflict in the lives of the husband, the wife and the lover, have been unanimously nailed as the most magnificent and effective ever shown upon a screen. A new Walt Disney cartoon in color, "The Cookie Carnival," Is on the same bill. "Baboona" Jungle Film at Jfollywood One of the most sensational ad venture films of all time is prom ised for the Hollywood theatre when the newest production of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Johnson, "Baboona," begins an engagement there today.

This time the Intrepid pair of explorers have made safari in Af rica by air. They have created it from the labors of two years during which time they traveled some CO. 000 miles by air above Jungle and plain, above unknown waters and mysterious mountains, According to those who hare wit nessed "Baboona? in r review showings. It furnishes one of the world's most extraordinary rec ords of the conquest of the un conquerable. The Jungle has baffled the Johnsons before as It has bat fled many an adventurer; but this time they flew In! Where oth ers had halted, they plunged on and from the air they entered the forbidden kingdom of claw and fang. MAHouTcOvwdTlk?ater rv OLLYVOOU Today, Monday & Tuesday Continuous Today 2 to 11 P.M.
