" DAMAGED LIVES."
NATIONAL AND PRINCE EDWARD THEATRES. An unusual theme is the feature of interest in the film "Damaged Lives," which to-morrow is to be screened at both the National and Prince Edward Theatres. Produced in Hollywood by the Canadian Racial Hygiene Association, its aim is, by education, to strike a blow at diseases of a type which are age-old, but which could be materially checked if knowledge concerning them were more widely ililfused. It is contended that it is a false modesty that would withhold from the young knowledge that is even more important to them than to older people. The story which the film tells concerns a young man, who postpones marriage to his Joan until he is able to show himself capable of "settling down." The sowing of his "wild oats" and its consequences to his married life provide the theme of "Damaged Lives." Lyman Williams and Diane Sinclair portray the two central • figurcs-m the film.
