S. M. Hutchinson's novel of a man whose code of honor forces him to take the clame for an- other man’s misconduct even though it means villification at the hands of the year's outstanding formances are compressed in this gripping picture, which is now at the Capitol Theatre. *borah Kerr, the English actress ho swept inte overnight American popularity the result of her work opposite Clark Gable in “The Hucksters,” has an even meatier role as the woman whose fine sensi- bilities prevent her from renounc- ing an antivathet'c husband for an idealistic writer. Walter P.dgeon, as the writer caught up in a web of incriminat- ing circumstances when he be- {riends Effie Bright, a young girl who has gotten herself into trouble turns in the most forceful and com- pelling dramatic characterization o his entire career, while Angela Lans- bury, as his petty, jealous and mis- understanding wife, adds another our lant portrait to her gallery ofl avies.” Last, but far from least, is the woik of Janet Leigh, who with but one previous pictyre to her credit— ‘The Romance of Rosy Ridge”— brings to the role of the ill-fated Effie Bright a compassion and ten- derness that is nothing less than remarkable in a player of so limited perience. -—,e AMPARO ITURBI CONCERT HERE ON JANUARY €/ Amparo Iturbi will appear In Juneau Thursday evening January 6, under the auspices of the Juneau Concert Assciation. Advancement of Madame Iturbi’s| concert from March to January was announced today by Concert Association President Ernest Ehler. Amparo, who is the sister of the wellknown Jose Iturbi, and a fine musician on her own, will cive piano recitals not only in Juneau, but also in Anchorage and Fairbanks on her Alaskan tour. The date for Madame Iturbi's northern tour has been advanced due to the fact that she is leav- ing soon for Europe, Mr. Ehler said. Her trip to Alaska had been formerly planned for March. Oi Amparo Tturbi, critics have said . . . “The intellectual power, musical intelligence and technical equipment of this quiet and ex- tremely handsome woman are ex- traordinary.” Concert goers will be in for a night of exceptional musical en- tertainment with the apperance of Madame Iturbi here. Her re- cital program will be announced at a later date.
