The youth diligently follows his studies for two years, but on the eve of achievement rebels, and turns to housekeeper’s Cockney daughter, Bessie (Joan Lorring) for a romantic interlude. .. Bessie’s announcement of impending motherhood causes Miss Moffat to bribe the girl into leaving town without telling Evans. Resuming his lessons, he goes on, not only to enter, but to place first in the ‘Oxford competition. It is only then that he learns of the child Bessie has borne and decides to return to the mines and marry her.

BILBO WARNS OF DRIVE FOR FEPG

CHICAGO, July 26 (U. P)~— Senator Theodore Bilbo (D. Miss.)

‘wrote a Chicago woman that the

American people would revolt and “figuratively” liquidate every Negro and Jew if minority groups continued to press for passage of the fair employment practice committee bill, it was learned today. In a letter to Miss Helen Feldman, 23, Senator Bilbo declared

that he was attempting to protect

the welfare of American citizens

. against Negro ‘and Jewish minor-

ities who “are trying to destroy our {freedom and way of life through the damnable, unconstitutional, unAmerican, communistically inspired monstrosity known as the FEPC.” + “I hope that the true friends of the democratic form of .govern-

“ment and the American way of - life will never forget my actions

because I am rendering a really , Worthwhile service against these 1 fanatical pressure groups,” Bilbo wrote, He added that he had wriiten members of Jewish and Negro groups telling them that if they continued to support “such damphool legislatign” the great mass of the American people would “revolt and figuratively liquidate every member of their groups.”

SAILOR GIVES $1000 TO ORPHANS HOME

MUNCIE, Ind. July 26 (U. P).— A discharged navy veteran kept faith with his dead sailor buddy yesterday. Robert Bishop, the veteran, donated $1000 to the Mooseheart home in Illinois through the Muncie Moose lodge as a provision of a pact made between him and another sailor overseas. Bishop said that he and Wilson Elks, both orphans, entered into an agreement whereby each would pay $1000 to their former orphanage if they both returned from overseas duty. ' In case one failed to return, the other man was obligated to make both contributions. Elks was killed in the battle of Tarawa. Bishop sald that he already had given $1000 to his former home, a children’s home maintained by the United American Mechanics lodge at Tiffin, O. Elks was reared by the Illinois home to which Bishop donated the cash yesterday.

4 Nazis Get the

Like any number ‘of innocents,

abroad in the far west, four escaped

Nazis make the fatal mistake of dropping in at one of those roadside motels. ; i That's all brother. And it ain't the cooking. It’s Warner Bros.’ plot. What happens in this plot happens like fury at the Lyric this week under the title of “Escape in the Desert.” Heroes .and villains throughout sling firearms and dirty looks. But the sheriff gets the Nazis in the end, and thereby hangs a tale. These Nazis flee unscathed from & prison camp in the Arizona desert. But lives there a man who could escape unscathed from a motel? Hardly. In the course of the film, this particular motel does business like a general store on Saturday night. First comes Philip Dorn, a refugee from the Dutch air force. He's taken in tow by Gramps, the motel manager who suspects he’s one of
