9th & Miss.
During my years of exhibiting motion pictures, I have been privileged to bring many films before you.
Seldom do I take the liberty of recommending one personally--but I have just seen an entertainment for the entire family-"NORTH TO ALASKA".
It is an unusual story of fighting, laughing, brawling men-big enough to challenge the land...great enough to build the American heritage.
It brings to the screen John Wayne, the star of"The Alamo," Stewart Granger, Ernie Kovacs, popular young Fabian and the beauty Louella Parsons hails as "the most promising actress of the year!"-Capucine!
I sincerely recommend this wonderfully fun-filled outdoor adventure- "NORTH TO ALASKA"
