Add that maestrc of the piano, Jo2 Iturbi, playing his first romantic role, and fast-rising singing-starlet Jane Powell with a new flock of songs, and you have la picture containinz all the ingredi- ients for perfect entertainment. Joe Pasternak produced this new {melo-delightful story of a youthful mother who has to do some rapid- ! fire intriguing before she can con- vince ker three impetuous daugh- ters that she doesn’t want her di- | vorced hus:and back, but instead wants a second try at the matri- monial whirl. Iturbi is the man involved, and when he isn’t beating the ivories in ear-tingling versions of such clas- sics as “Rosenkavalier,” “Liebe- straum,” and the “Ritual Fire Da " intermingleq with a bit of | Loogie-wocgie, he is beating his brains out trying to convince Jane Powell, Ann E. Todd and Mary | Eleanor Donahue that they will like him much better as a papa than the | men who deserted their mobher.“ Miss MacDonald, years ago. . NEW MEMBERS ARE ADDED TO ROLLS OF | AMERICAN LEGION! The Monday evening meeting of Juneau Post No. 4, The American | Legion, was marked by the addi-| tion of five new members who were admitted to full privileges of | the organization.

Among various topics of interest to veterans, and introduced for discussion, was that concerning Universal Military Training. With the advent of the new congress at Washington, D. C. this measure has again bkeen introduced to the port of the national body of The American Legion. : These iacts were set forth by Homer G. Nordling, Department of Alaska Commander of the Legion | who was present at the meeting.
