"Soldiers Of The
Storm” Story Of
Border Air Patrol
Motion pictures have glorified the
Army, Navy, Air Corps and Marines
but because the Border Patrol go
es about its business so quietly and
is not very well known, there have
been, up to now, no stories filmed
around its exploits.
Columbia has just made a screen
version of Thompson Burtis’ fast
moving novel of the Patrol, and the
result is ‘'Soldiers of the Storm,"
due Friday at the Dream Theatre.
Thus, for the first time, the movie
public will have an opportunity to
learn something about this small
but nevertheless vital arms of gov-!
eminent service.
The chief function of the Border
Patrol is to prevent the smuggling
of drugs and aliens across the Mexi
can border. The stringent laws
a passed against this illegal traffic have
B produced increased activity from
Mexican sources, and the Patrol has
been in an extreme state of watch
fulness, especially during the last
few years. Despite what the Mexi
can government has done on its own
side of the line, and the co-operation
it has extended to the United States,
the smuggling continues.
A good deal of the Patrol's work
is carried on by plane and Columbia
has produced this picture with some
very striking air shots. Regis Toom
ey is seen as the undercover man
who rounds up a band of smugglers
led by Robert Ellis. Anita Page
lends her blonde beauty to the pic
ture as the feminine lead, while Bar
bara Barondess, George Cooper,
Wheeler Oakman and Dewey Robin
son are also prominently featured

ing losers, of last week’s games.

er KOL at Seattle recently, his sub-;
ject being the importance of Alask

cost of the Territoi y todate had been
$154,499,000.00, but the minerals, fish
and other products had way over
balanced the cost He advised resi
dents to stay away from Alaska un
less they had a job in sight.
Peter Polyte, who registered at
the Senate Rooms in Juneau recent
ly, has disappeared and officials are
