is - brought to the screen in Co
lumbia's "Coast Guard," story of
the United States Coast Guard,
now showing at the Grand thea

The picture reveals the heroic
saga of the coast guard, with its
stations standing on every coast
line of America, from outposts in
Alaska to modern quarters on the
Gulf of Mexico. The activities of
the service are clearly shown: the
cutters ' patrolling the iceberg
lanes of the North Atlantic or
guarding seals from the depreda
tions of poachers; aircraft wing
over little-frequented shorelines
and great ambulance planes take
seriously injured men from ships
at sea.
The romance centers around
the whirlwind courtship of Miss
Dee, granddaughter of Walter
Connolly, sea-captain, by Scott,
reckless pilot of a coast guard am
bulance plane, and Bellamy, offi
cer in the service. An outstand
ing group of players, including
Warren Hymer, Edmund Mac-
Donald, Mala, Stanley Brown and
numerous others are included in
the cast. The picture was directed
by Edward Ludwig.

Roscoe Turner Is
Starred in Films
Appears in Air Thriller,
"Flight at Midnight"
at Capitol
The Capitol theatre's current
bill is of 8jecial interest to air
racing fans, and to all who thrill
to the droning of motors in the
sky. Republic's "Flight At Mid
night" presents Phil Regan, sup
ported by the ace racing pilot,
Roscoe Turner, in an epic of the
airlanes.
Regan, "singing cop" of radio
and screen fame, injects vigor into
his Jole of i ; mail pjlot who has
pledged himself to help "Pop"
Hussey, manager of a small air
port, in raising funds with which
to bury high tension wires which
surround the field and are sub
ject to condemnation by flight in
spectors. Roscoe Turner, ace speed pilot,
makes his film debut in a strong
supporting role.
Jean Parker is lovely, as al
ways, in the leading feminine role,
again being cast opposite Regan.
Barbara Pepper, a girl who bears
striking resemblance to the late
Jean Harlow, handles a minor
role with zest and skill.
"Wall Street Cowboy," Hatton
and George "Gabby" Hayes team
up as range-riding pals of Roy Ro
gers In the Capitol's second fea

of the falls. Recently 19 steel

are nine feet eight inches high

for them to reach the top due to

In the early days of medicine
"bleeding" the patient was common

blood, the modern j surgeon often
employs ' blood transfusions.

Thus, continually, old methods
are upset; old practices displaced by
new and more effective procedure.
And in this establishment we seek
to keep pace with medical advance
ment by stocking the newest scien

"prepared to fill your Physician's pre-
