Celeste, played by Veda Ann Borg, runs an exclusive beauty parlor as front for her blackmail gang headed by her and her law- yer. They play their game suc- cessfully until Florence, one of the murder operators decides to confess, and they are forced to murder her before she tells George Houston, Chief of Detectives. One murder leads to another, and the gang heads decide to leave town before suspicion falls on them. A spinetingling mystery film will make its local debut as the other feature at the 20th Century The- atre tonight when Warner Bros.' “A Shot In The Dark” opens. The/ film tells the intriguing story of an| innocent man’'s confession to two brutal murders, one his friend, the other his enemy. In the leading roles are William Lundigan, Nan Wynn and Ricardo Cortez. Lundigan plays the part of a young reporter who thinks he is as good as the police when it comes | to solving crimes. Nan Wynn, who became famous for her singing, was cast in a perfect role, that of a night club singer. Lundigan likes her, but he is not alone in his| affection. Regs Toomey, in the role of a detective, also tries his best to make a hit with her. .o BUY DEFENSE BONDS BUSY WOMEN I o | fitted leopard mode) In tune with the new era of busy routine; when heaith and warmth go hand-in-hand. fur designers have created a group of utility coats that were made especially for career girls and war workers.
