This feature is now Ishowing at the Capitol. In this film Laughton is said to achieve a truly striking resem- blance to the great Dutch master for whom love and inspiration' went {hand in hand. The film, which marks the re- union of the star and director-pro- ducer combination which gave us the unforgettable “Private Life of Henry VIIL” picks up the artist’s story in his youth.

Hollmann crossed the hot sands to Mecca on the Arab caravan and is now under the tents of the faith- ful. Following the initiation, an en- Jjoyable banquet was held for the Shriners. Carl E.

As proof that he really did it with his not-so= little bow and arrow, Stone brought back from Los Robles plateau in Mexico a movie film of the kill.

Since then he has perfected his archery in Africa, Asia, Austra=- lia and South America. Hunting with a high-powered rifle, he says, doesn’t give the game porting chance. He chooses, instead, a 4'2-foot bow of pound pull and, for arrows, cedar shafts tipped with bandsaw steel. Just for safety's sake, though, he also carries a pistol—but for use only in an emergency.
