"Ever since school days, when
I spent a good part of the sum

I've been crazy about swimming,"
Jane explains. ,'

"You read of so many tedious
exercises for developing different

chest and shoulders. Well, they're
all included in the back stroke,

you're building up your figure.
"Swimming develops long,

'Aloma of South
Today's Film at
Dorothy Lamour
Topping their memorable
Dorothy Lamour and Jon Hall open today in their new screeivro-
znance, Paramount's "Aloma of
theatre.
Filmed in technicolor, its sweep of breath-taking scenes on a
tropical island paradise have won
plenty of "ohs" and "ahs" from
the onlookers. Every color in the
rainbow seemed to be competing
for a popularity award. And as
for Lamour she's more exotic
and exciting than ever.
The story is thrilling and ro
mantic Jon Hall, the son of the
island chief, was betrothed to
Dorothy Lamoor daring their
childhood, according to the cus
toms of the islanders. After a
ten-year absence 'to secure an
education la the states, Jon
returns home to claim his bride-to-be
and to prepare himself
for bis future duties as chief.
Bat he is unprepared for the
treachery planned against him
by his envious, unprincipled
cousin.
Dorothy Lamour, the wild,
beauteous Aloma, finds herself
torn between her returned hus-band-to-be
and the cousin, Philip
Reed, the man she thinks she
loves. Their triangle of tropic love
turns to stirring melodrama.
Flying fists lead to knives and
guns. Excitement mounts to a
roaring climax when steaming
lava begins to pour but of a
sacred volcano on the island.
To a screen that has presented
many breath-taking natural ca
tastrophes Is added the first movie
dramatization of the explosion of
Krakatoa said to be the most
destructive act of nature in the
history of mankind.
Krakatoa, for those not fam
iliar with the August, 1883 inci
dent, was a volcanic Island in
the Sunda Straits that erupted
with such force that it killed
36,009 people outrlfht, was
heard 3000 miles away and eir-
cled the entire globe with its
dost and ashes cansing the sob
to be darkened and aeeoontinsr
for the bitter, cold winter that
followed.
Paramount's Director Alfred
San tell did a magnificent job of
reproducing the tremendous
'quake and fire-spitting volcano
both in sound -and in all-technicolor.
This scene, alone, is worth
more than the price of admission.
It's the film spectacle topper of
all time.

This Woman Is Mine, Frank
Lloyd's new Universal story of
early nineteenth century romance
and adventure, with Franchot
Tone, John Carroll, Walter Bren
nan and Carol Bruce in the star
ring roles, now showing at the
Capitol theatre. , - .
Based on the best-selling his
torical novel, I ' James Lewis,"
by Gilbert W. Gabriel, This
Woman Is Mine tells of the peo
ple, aboard the schooner Tonquin
who made the hazardous voyage
around the Horn in 1810 to estab
lish the American' fur trade in
the Pacific Northwest
Tone, in one of his best roles
since Lloyd s "Mutiny on the
Bounty, portrays a young clerk
sent aboard the Tonquin to rep
resent John Jacob Astor, the
owner.
Carroll appears as ovide, a
laughing, loving French-Canadian
riverman. Brennan, three-time
winner of Motion Picture Acad
emy awards, departs from his
customarily benign roles to play
the stern, cold master of the Ton
quin.
This Woman Is Mine marks
the screen debut of Carol Bruce,
who rose to overnight fame on the
Broadway stage.
