THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JL\LAU ALASKA i . .~'when those Three Daring. Daughters try to teach their charming divorcee mother all about life and love . . . How the songs and kisses and laughs do fly . .! S —— j g, —————————————-e MONDAY, JANUARY 24, 1949 N O W ! BRINGING JOY TO EVERYONE IN JUNEAU! I24, 7:30 p. 'SINGING STARS, PIANO KING AT CAPITOL THEATRE Jeanette Iturbi plays—Jane Powell sings— and it's a case of stars, romance, music and heartwarming comedy— ' brought to the screen in Techni- color in “Three Daring Daughters,” the feature now at the Capitol The- atre. This is MGM’'s *welcome home" picture for Miss MacDonald, Hol- lyweod’s golden-voiced star who deserted films five years ago to win fresh acclaim in the concert and operatic flelds. As the mod-| ern Lusiness woman with three growing daughters who finds ro-; mance during a tropical cruise, she | has the type or role which has en- deared her to millions of fans throughout the world. She not only romances with the renowned pian- ist, Jose Iturbi, but sings song after song to his magnificent accompani- ment. Iturbi has his initial romantic role and a chance to reveal his histrionic abilities as well as his stellar tal- ents as a conductor angd; pianist. No* content with these two artists the picture also features Jane Pow- ell, whose glorious voice and per- formance in “Holiday in Mexico,” skyrocketed her to stellar heights on the eve of her sixteenth birth- day. Again Jane has a chance to sing and to meddle in the romantic mix-ups of her elders. She is aided in the merry tangle by Mary Elea- nor Donahue and little Ann E. Todd, | with another big role played by Edward Arnold, as a gruff news- paper tycoon. “Three Daring Daughters,” is a story of amusing complications which result when a woman at- tempts to keep her second marriage a secret from her three young daughters. — ., MASONIC NOTICE Regular meeting Monday, Jan. m.
