Producer-Director Clarence Brown, skipping nimbly over the theological soft spots in his plot, takes a firm stand against the forces of Evil, represented by Radio Announcer Keenan Wynn, who doubts that Providence cares whether the Pirates win or lose.

Complete Recoveries. Coxsackie has been studied so seldom that doctors know almost nothing about it. A similar disease was noted in Europe in the 1870s; doctors called it epidemic muscular rheumatism. In the 1880s, an epidemic struck Bornholm Island, off the coast of Sweden; it was dubbed Bornholm's Disease.
