'MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 1945 s | COLORFUL ROLE PR 1| INFILM NOW AT | CAPITOL THEATRE FaEra | | Together they conquer the future! ] One of the most colorful male screen roles of the year—the dash- ‘ing immensely rich, immensely pow- erful Major Augustus Parkington of the Louis Bromfield novel, “Mrs. Parkington” went to Walter Pidgeon | thereby reuniting for the fourth |time the combination which made screen history in ‘Mrs. Miniver,” “Madame Curie” and “Blossoms in | the Dust.” | With Greer Garson in the title| ‘mlo as the fascinating Susie Par- | kington and Pidgeon as the empire ! building Major, the picture is now playing at the Capitol Theatre. For both Garson and Pidgeon, the | film represents a distinct departure | | from any of their previous “hus- | band and wife” portrayals for fire, gayety and worldliness aré the dom- inating characteristics of the Park- ingtons. | Importantly cast are Edward Ar- ncld, Donna Reed, Agnes Moore- head, Gladys Cooper, Tom Drake | | 4nd Peter Lawford.

He stated that the com- plaint against him at Anchorage had been dismissed. Upon his arrival back in Juneau, Skoog is alleged to have created a violent disturbance at the apart- ment of his wife, which led to his arrest by local authorities. ‘The charge to which he pleaded guilty here is a misdemeanor in- volving a $20 check accepted by the Baranof Hotel.

That studio has come up with an- other one — “No Time for Love”, co-starring Claudette Colbert and Fred MacMurray — and it is, with- out doubt, one of the funniest movies seen in a long time. The audience of the 20th Centrury theatre, where the picture opened last night, loved it, to judge by the laughter with which it was received. The stars are seen as an arty woman photographer and a tough, strongminded tunnel digger. They meet on the floor of a tunhel when Claudette is assigned to get pictures Their ro- mance starts then and there, although they don’t know it. It really gets going hilariously when, because of getting MacMurray in trouble, Cluudette offers to hire him herself; he takes her up on it, be- jcomes her assistant and a welcome Ithorn n her side. A great deal goes on before the happy ending.

The money, representing for the most part donations Irom people in Michigan, Illinois and the Ser- geant’s home State of Kentucky, was presented to Sgt. Hensel at the Percy Jones General Hospital, where he has been a patient for five weeks. 1t highlighted the Sergeant's ob- | servation of his third wedding an- niversary and meant a realization of his ambition to own a chicken | farm when he is released from the | Army. Hensel, who faces the necessity of four operations and about a year- and-a-half more of hospitalization, | was quite abashed as he and Mrs. Hensel received the gifts. “Gee, this is swell, honey,” was | the Sergeant’s lone comment to his wife as the anniversary presents were listed. o ODD FELLOWS ATTENTION Members of the IOOF are re- quested to attend the funeral of Brother Henry Hendrickson, Tues- day at 2 p. m. in the Chapel of the | Chas.
