It is a keen and penetrating study of a man for whom there is no hope; warped in character, loved by women, even ad‘mn‘ed for certain qualities by men who know what the inevitable end must be and who work deliberately toward that end. This is a human. earthly and appealing melodrama of the swamp galk. Based on the novel “Girl of the le'berlost” by Gene StrafitOn orber. Filmed in technicolor, starting with the picneering exploits of the Wright Bros. at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, in 1903 and‘ continuing the history of aviation to the recent flight of Howard Hughes. This is a cavalcade of the romance of aviation. Dramatic and powerful, there is also a warme human story that brings the laughs and tears, as well as thrills and suspense. An amusing bit of homespun, much in the manner of the old} Will Rogers films is ‘Arkansas Traveler’, an appealing comedy of anall- town happenings.
