Harly ever has a motion picture caused so much excited talk among moviegoers, and there is plenty of good reason for it. To begin with, film fans seems to sense, with that indefinable instinct that many of them seem to possess, that Paramount has sent aloft an aviation picture perhaps of unsurpassed magnitude. Tht fact that the Army Air Corps gave its fullest co-operation to the film's producers indicates a picture of the first rank.

the indelible motion picture. "Wings," one of the greatest sky films of all time, did not have such aus- picious help. All this, of course, leads us to take for granted that there will be. breathlessly thrilling sky sep qtiences-rand that they will all be authentic and. accurate, which is al.

ways a tremendous benefit in a picture of this sort. For instance, "I Wanted Wings" presents the details of what might hap- 'pen if a city such as Los Angeles were to be raided from the air and black- out in defense.

A comparative newcomer to the screen, Miss Lake, who has appeared in only three minor roles in the past, dashes towards stardom with all the speed and surprise of a pursuit plane.

She's a thoroughly streamlined beauty, honey-blonde, with exciting looks, trim figure, and, no doubt plenty of genuine acting ability. Constance Moore, who has been seen more frequently on the screen than Miss Lake, also is featured in the cast, playing her most important part so far. As this department recalls her, she is lovely to look at, knows how to comport herself before the camera lens. NOTICE 2 New Bus Schedules Leaving HOPE at 9 M. and 3:45 P.
