ae } SIDEGLANCES - - By George Clark { “They never go Christmas shopping without ending up in a fight.” ~ fi | AT THE MOVIES ‘Varsity Show’ Has Powell and Waring “Varsity Show,” Warner Bros. filmu- sical extraordinary, has its local premiere today at the Bismarck thea- tre. Starring the ever-popular Dick ‘Powell and introducing in grand man- ner to motion picture audiences, Fred ‘Waring and his nationally famous orchestra, the Pennsylvanians. ‘“Var- sity Show” marks a new high in mu- sical and comedy entertainment. Included in the stellar cast besides Dick Powell and Fred Waring are such leading figures as Ted Healy, Lee Dixon, Priscilla Lane, Rosemary Lane, Buck and Bubbles, Walter Catlett, Johnny Davis and Roy Atwell. Bus- by Berkeley, known for his imagina- tive and lavish production numbers in past Warner Bros. musicals, out- does himself in “Varsity Show” with a smashing finale that climaxes more than an hour of supreme fun and amusement. The plot of the picture deals with the efforts of Chuck Daly (Dick Powell), a Broadway producer tem- porarily on his uppers, to stage the annual Quandrangle Club show at Winfield college. Daly, himself a ‘Winfield alumnus, is induced to return to the college to rescue the varsity show from the hands of Professor Sylvester Biddle (Walter Catlett), faculty advisor, who is all for art and nothing for modernity in school pres- entations, Although the Britis, Navy gives daily rum ration, only about one- third of the men accept it, The oth- ers take the two-pence in lieu of the rum, WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE— ‘Without Calomnel—And You'll Jump Out of Bed lo ‘the Morning Rarin’ to Go ‘The liver should pour out two pounds of Nquid bile into your bowels daily, If this bile fa not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest.

Stubbornly refuse ~ Santa Anita Locale For Racing Thriller Racing hoofs and beating hearts mingle to provide dramatic thrills in “Thoroughbreds Don’t Cry,” in which Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer presents Ronald Sinclair, new discovery in English boy actors, teamed with Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney and Sophie Tucker, The new picture comes Fri- day to the Capitol theatre. The play is a drama of childhood friendship and loyalty, based on heart interest, but told against the sensa- tional background of the race track, spectacular races and turf intrigue. Alfred E. Green dircted from an orig- inal story by Eleanore Griffin and J. Walter Ruben. Much of the action was filmed at the Santa Anita race track, with many famous jockeys and horses and hundreds of people. Harry Rapf produced the picture. Players include C. Aubrey Smith, Forrester Harvey, Charles D. Brown, Frankie Darro, Henry Kolker and Helen Troy. The major thrill is the winning of @ race by Ronald Sinclair, despite an injured leg. One of the dramatic highlights is Mickey Rooney's expos- ure of a band of race track crooks | in which he, as a young jockey, faces | ruin himself to save his friend. In 1713, the British government of- fered $100,000 to anyone who could make a clock that would not lose more than three seconds a day, The prize was collected some years later by a clockmaker named Harrison. Baboons carry their young on their backs, jockey-fashion. BETTER FLAVOR is making BREAD A FAVORITE You'll like it, too! Ask for it.
