fsmoua World War novel, which
opened a three-day run yesterday at

16 whose mind, body and soul are
subjected to the burning white heat
of modern warfare.
Lew Ayres gives a performance that
ever made, and on which the Naal
government has banned from Ger

has seldom been surpassed In the the author has been exiled to a fat
role of the youth transformed from
a schoolboy in a German village to
a soldier boy In the trenches. 811m

heim and many others give unfor
gettable performances In the film
