'BATTLEGRO D'
BIG FEATURE, IS
BILL AT CAPITOL
“Battleground” is real. It tells the
story of the average G.I., around
whose foxhole world history was
made during the crucial Battle of
Bastogne. in 1944, when American
troops, surrounded and outnum
bered, held the surprise Nazi break
through.
This feature starts at the Capitol
Theatre Sunday.
"Battleground” is a story about
men, the little, almost anonymous
men, the griping, foot-slogging in
fantrymen—and a girl who inspired
them.
“Battleground" has a cast com
mensurate with its story — Van
Johnson, John Hodiak, Ricardo
Montalban, George Murphy, Mar
shall Thompson, Denise Darcel and
many others, including a special
squad of regular U.S. paratroopers.
These are the original “Screaming
Eagles” of the 101st Airborne Divi
sion. In addition to playing them
selves, the G.I.’s served as on-the
spot technical advisors.
“Batt'“"round,” spanning the hec
tic seven days up to and including
Christmas, 1944, is set against snow
covered foxholes, bombed out barns,
and jolting Army trucks with a fi
delity and authenticity seldom
achieved in motion pictures.

FORCES WILL ASK
MORE MONEY IN
YEAIMHNSON
WASHINGTON, July 29 — OB —
Rep. Vinson (D-Ga.) said today
he “would not be surprised” if the
armed forces ask more money in
the next 12 months, on top of the
$25,000,000,000 reques* already on
file T'tlth Congress.
Vinson, chairman of the House
armed services committee, made
clear that after hearing the mobil
ization plans of the three military
services he feels they are not build
ing fast enough.
In his opinion, he said, their
plans have “certain elements of
conservatism.”
And he described as merely "the
first increment” in America's re
armament program the present
plan to have 2,089,000 men in uni
form by June 30, 1951. There are
now about 1,500,000 in service.

MOVIE "YOUNGER
BROTHERS" BILL
AT 20TH CENTURY
Thrills and romance ol the west
fill Warner Bros. Technicolor melo
drama, “The Younger Brothers,"
starring Wayne Morris, Janis Page,
Bruce Bennett, Gereledine Brooks,
and Robert Hutton. It is now on the
screen at the Gross 20th Century
Theatre.
The drama, showing all the mag
nificence of some of the early un
tamed west, is set against that part
of Minnesota adjoining the Mis
souri border.
The action takes place over a per
iod of two weeks in the year 1876
and action there is aplenty. As the
outlaws in the big bank robbery
scene clash head-on with the
Younger Brothers, there is enough
gun-play and hard riding to suit
the *"081 vivid action fans.
“The Younger Brothers” furnished
a number of "fifst times” in the
dangerous action for at least two
members of the large cast, and in
at least one instance the players
found their acting assignment
rather harrowing. Wayne Morris
was to slap Janis Page in one se
quence, and by mutual agreement
between the pair, there were no re
hearsal slaps, only one convincing
one.
