While there may be more than a touch of modesty to the beautiful Miss ‘Oberon’s pro- | nouncement, she does manage to make out a good case for her theory in “Lydia,” her new starring film, which opens tomorrow at the Capi- tol Theatre. The youpg English girl, whose raven hair and deep dark eyes won for her a series of important roles which quickly led to stardom, points to a long series of roles in whh'h‘ she was cast just because she looked the part. These, paradoxically, in- cluded shopgirls, sirens, half- castes, society women, and simple country maids. Her most recent picture, “Lydia,” produced by her famous husband Alexander Korda casts her as an American, a Bos- ton debutante. With such a wide variety of roles, | Miss Oberon smilingly points out that she could not avoid becoming | an actress. As soon as she learned to be one type, the vagaries of fate cast her into another, which was frequently the diametric opposite These quick transitions from siren| to good girl, from the village queen to society sophisticate, made her act, and act well, whether she liked it or not. She had no time to be typed, and just had to learn her trade. In “Lydia,” Miss Oberon is star- red as the daughter of a socially prominent Boston family From her coming out party in 1890, to the presept day, she has four men in her life. The film reveals the development in her character. .- STOCK GUOTATIONS NEW YORK, Sept. 29. — Closing quotation of Alaska Juneau mine‘ stock today is 17, American Can 66%, Anaconda 25%, Bethlehem Steel 547%, Commonwealth and Southern 7/30, Curtiss Wright 8, International Harvester 48'2, Ken- necott 30, New York Central 9%, | Northern Pacific 6%, United States| Steel 467, Pound $4.04.

Other reasons are decreasing food | supplies, increasing Axis pressure for closer collaboration.
