CIVIC THEATRE
^ Convincing and realistic is "The Iron Major," Pat O'Brien's new | staring film coming to the Civic Theatre to-night and Friday. It proves to be a surprisingly enter- ! taining film that is a well-deserved ; tribute to a great American— the j late Major Frank Cavanaugh. ! . For the benefit of those who may inot know of Cavanaugh, he was a | Massachusetts boy who, at Dartjmouth, Holy Cross, Boston Collegc land Fordham, became one of the greatest football coaches 'of all time, and who on the battlefields of France in 1918 became one of jthe nation's heroes. ! For those who like to get away (from it all — and who doesn't these i days? — there is the new Republic musical, "Brazil,"- showing at thc ■ Civic Theatre to-night and Friday. i Here are lilting music by Ary Bar- : roso, Brazil's most celebrated comjposer, sung by Tito Guizar and played on his inimitable guitar, romance with his co-star, Virginia j Bruce, and exquisite dancing by Veloz and Yolanda.
