Added: "The Lost City of the Jungle” |2 FEATURES FOR THIS WEEKEND AT CAPITOL THEATRE Two features, a comedy and al mystery story, are the attractions at the Capitol Theatre for this week- end, starting tonight. | Warner Baxter is starred in “The Millerson Case,” called a crime doc- {tor picture, with Nancy Saunders, {Clem Bevans, Gritf Barnett and {Paul Guilfoyle in the cast “The Ghost Goes Wild” is the ‘cnmedy feature with added mystery. Story begins when successful young artist Monty Crandall, played by James Ellison, is sued by socitey { |matron Susan Beecher, played by |Ruth Donnelly, for painting a cari- | cature of her. This is worse than it |appears on the surface, since Susan |Beecher is the aunt, of Crandall’s | fiancee, Phyllis, played kty lovely . Anne Gwynne. | “Aside from the lawsuit, however,| there are other complications in| Crandall’s life, because sophisticated , Irene Winters has a crush on Cran-| dall, even though she is married, and | her hushand is out to get even withj him. When a convenient accident| makes people think Crandall was killed in a fire, it seems much sim- pler for him to pretend that he's dead and reappear as a ghost. With the aid of his father, played by vet- eran comedian Edward Everett Hor- ton, ‘Crandall is playing' a winning game—until a real ghost enters into the picture! From' this unexpected complication the story moves to a smashing climax. e | | | | | {LEGION AUXILIARY GIVEN INVITATION, ! ART CLASS EXHIBIT| | 1 i | Mrs | through Mrs. Ray G.

There is nione "BING CROSBY OF BRITAIN” IS NOW IN UNITED STATES By SAUL PETT NEW YORK-“"The Bing Crosby of Britain” is a rather short man with hair. Denny Dennis also has 'a long face reminiscent of Leslie Howard and a conservative taste in shirts, and at home.he's known as a ‘“nice noise,” which in British show busi- ness means he sings well, Rated among his country’s top three vocalists for the past 10 years, the 34-year-old, five-feet, eight inch baritone has come to the Uni- ted States to sing with the Tommy Dorsey band on tour for the next six- months, plus another six if the man with the trombone picks up his option. Dennis and the band leader had never met but Dorsey signed him on the basis of his records, which have been sellihg well in this country,| especially since the Petrillo ban.| At _home, Dennis sings on a radio| variety show called “Band Call.” His first day here, the British sngef appeared on three disc jockey programs. Although he knew in ad- vance that American radio was commercial, he was a “bit nervy”, (nervous). Il His second day here, Dennis spent joining two Tradio and theatrical unions. “In Secialist Britain,” he noted pleasantly, “there are two theatrical unions. but you don't have| to join. In America, it seems you! do* | But he quickly explained he didn't mind in the least, that he held union cards at home anyway and probably would have joined up here| volunatarily. | As to the informality of our air waves, Denny finds this a pleasant change after the government-owned British radio. | “There is no ad-libbing at home,” | he explained. “Performers can't kid! each other the way Benny and Allen. or Crosby and Hope do here. You. can't sing a song without being in-, introduced by the announcer and the announcer must follow a seript carefully.” The British announcer wiil say| simply, “Here’s Denny Dennis now, | singing “The Bluest Kind of Blue«."i of our chit-chat before hand—oom- mencs on somebody’s blue suit™ or, blue eyes or blue tie which lead the| script obliquely into the song. Noné ° of the clever things like that. ' Dennis reportéd Britain has only | three disc jockey program. ‘Record Roundup” 1s heard on Saturdays.! On week-day. evenings there’s “Fam-' ily Favorites” and in the morr_nnl,: “Housewife’s Choice.” The disc jockeys are regular sta-| tion announcers who take turns and there’'s no nonsense permitted—no breaking records on the air or in- !sulting a performer or casually talk- ing to the engineer. As to the post- war situation of British radio and music in general, Dennis reported: There are no bobby-soxers as such —ths most a teen-aged fan will do is to ask for an autograph and that's done politely, no tie-snatehing, coat- pulling, screaming, swooning, etc.; female vocalists -are more important than males and it is rare for a man singer to have his own radio spot; the popularity of dance music has fallen off since before the war; Danny Kaye, who played London recently, w: the biggest thing to hit British show business in years;" radio press agents are scarce; even the most successful British radio performers rarely, if ever, earn more than $500 a week. I think,” said Denny, it here.” “TI like - NEW STATE. OF ISRAEL ANNOUNCED (Continued frem Page One) of emergency. Military leaves were cancelled; holidays were suspend- ed. (Cairo, Egypt)— The Egyptian Education Minister said marital law would be proclaimed tomor- row “when Egyptian army troops cross the frontier into Palestine.” (Jerusalem)—The Jews ed ready. faced the north, south and east frontiers. Every Jewish man and woman from 18 to 35 in the ser- vices was mobilized and on the alert. The Jews said the Arabs burn- ed and captured the religious set- tlement of Kefar Etzion south of Bethlehem. The Arabs clung -also to the west end of Bab El Wad gorge blocking the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv road. Haganah said Syrian armor is attacking Dan in the north and that Egyptian volunteers have probed 50 miles into the Negeb Desert in the south. e —— SEATTLE VISITORS R. C.
