CIVIC THEATRE
From the same studio that gave you "The Good Earth," "Mutiny on the Boiinty," "Mrs. Miniver" ancl "Random Harvest" comes another outstanding film. This one is called "Dragon Seed," and it is based 011 the celebrated novel by Pearl Buck, author also of "The Good Eartn." It must be said immediately that "Dragon Seed" is a great picture, an outstanding production measured by any standards in the great tradition of Hollywood. "Dragon Seed," opening to-mor-row at the Civic Theatre, is a story of China and of the valiant Chinese people. It is a sweeping, epic story of their struggles against the marauding Japanese invaders, of a peaceful people who have shown that they know how to fight fcr 1 their country and their lives against ; the most tremendous odds in his- j tory. _________________
