“Slaves Of Babylon”
Is Scenic Attraction
The fall of sinful Babylon by
aword and flame, and the deliver-
ance of the Nation of Israel from
their slavery, has been realistical-
ly brought to the screen in color
in Columbia Pictures’ "Slaves of
Babylon," which plays Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday, January 17,
18 and 19 at the Scenic Drive-In
Theater. Co-starring Richard
Conte and Linda Christian, and
featuring Maurice Schwarts,
“Slaves of Babylon’ fills the screen
with sumptuous spectacle, savage
violence and impassioned romance.
"Slaves of Babylon” takes place
in that time, about 538 B. C., when
the Babylonian empire was at its
height. Nebuchadnezzar, king of
Babylon, invades and conquers Is-
rael! Among his captives are Na-
hum, played by Conte, and the
prophet Pnniel, portrayed by Mau-
rice Schwartz.
They discover that the young
shepherd, Cyrus, is the rightful
heir to the throne of Persia and
they set out to make him king.
When Cyrus meets the beautiful
Panthea, Linda Christian, and
falls in love with her, Nahum con-
vinces the former shepherd that
the only way to win Panthea is to
conquer Babylon and make her
queen.
Terrifying in its impact, mag-
nificent in its depiction, the fall
of Babylon is only one of many
eye-startling sights to be seen in
this technicolor drama. Other
thrilling sequences Include Daniel
in the lions’ den, the slaves in
the fiery furnace, and the famous
“handwriting on the wall” of Bib-
lical legend.
Richard Conte is rerfect in th"
role of tho volatile Nahum, and
Linda Christian, as Panthea, is
breathtaking in the exotic cos-
tumes of that colorful time.
“Slaves of Babylon” was created
for the screen by PeVallon Scott,
who wrote the story and screen
play. William Castle directed, and
thi film was produced for Colum-
bia Pictures by Sam Katzman.
“The Guest.” a short subject,
well known for its great lesson in
the brotherhood of man, a very
fine parable in action, is a splen-
did addition to this excellent feat-
ure.
All ministers and their families
ore invited to attend as guests of

Reinduction of Some
Men Is Probable
State Selection Service head-
quarters announced today t,hat
Texas draft boards have been call-
ed upon to take action which will
result in the reinductlon of some
men who already have performed
service under the draft law.
Authority for tho action is
based on a change in Selective Ser-
vice regulations, following an ex-
ecutive order of President Eisen-
hower, which was put into effect
in December.
As a result of the change in re-
gulations, 137 state draft hoards
will review more than #0,000 files
of men who already have spent
some time in uniform. Brigadier
General Paul I,. Wakefield, the
state draft director, said.
"The new regulations will re-
move the possibility of evasion of
minimum equitable service by a
small number of persons who,
under the former regulations, were
required to be classified as hav-
ing satisfied requirements if they
had served on active duty for one
day or more,” General Wakefield
said.
As revised, the regulations will
require a minimum of six months
or more of honorable service. The
state draft director pointed out
that men who do not satisfy this
minimum may be otherwise de-
ferrable, but their eases must ho
reopened,
This change will mean. General
Wakefield said, that an estimated
2,000 to 3,000 persons in the

The government protein is final-
ly rolling into Brady—the siiua-
tlou was getting desperate for the
fanner nmi rancher, as many were
out of feed. And the pusttires,
grain fields continued to go down.
(’has. Johnson of Mercury, lias
always tried to lie prepared Every
year lie tries to fill his silos, and
presently lie is feeding his cows
all they get about 3f>-4o pounds
of silage daily with one and one
quarter pound of cake. And they
are in excellent shape. He lias
enough silage to carry him to
spring and has enough to feed his
sheep when Ids present hay sup-
plies run out. He raised his own
hay, too.
Johnson says 1963 was one of
the driest years lie Inis experienced
on the farm and lie is making
plans for 1954. The reason for my
being out was to run contour lines
on one of ills fields. He wants to
fill those silos by holding as much
rainfall as possible when It comes.
Here's hoping.
You know, I've never had a
raincoat that would turn water -
don’t guess 1 need one here. Well,
anyway Santa Clfttis brought mo
a raincoat for Christmas so I'm
sure 1954 will he a wet year.
