It so happens, however, that Co- lumbia Pictures uses this terminol- ogy in the full realization of what it means in describing its latest of- fering, “Lust for Gold,” co-starring Glenn Ford and Ida Lupino at the Capitol Theatre Sunday and Mon- day. “The true story,” the movie ads proclaim, “of secret treasure, reaching back through 100 years of daring, jealousy and murder.” That| this is a conservative statement is {borne out by the source material upon which the film is based and the further fact that its authenticity is vouched for by no less than the Governor of Arizona, the state in} which the dramatic events occurred. “Lust for Gold” is based upon Barry Storm’s factual book, “Thun- der Gods Gold,” which is the true tale of the finding of the tabulous Lost Dutchman gold mine in Ari- zonf’'s Superstition Mountains and of the many men and a woman who fought and killed for $20,000,000 in gold hidden in its bowels. SHIFTS ARE MADE INMAJOR LEAGUES; WHITE 50X, MACKS (By the Associated Press) Firing of Jack Onslow as Man-| ager of the Chicago White Sox and the vigorous shakeup of the Phila- delphia A’s high command has the baseball world buzzing today. Even the New York Yankees’ nine-game win streak and sizzling pace of the Brooklyn Dodgers are overshadowed by the managerial} changes. Onslow's quitting came as no sur- prise. Jack’s name had been on the wall since last fall because of a feud with the White Sox front of- fice. X The new deal at Philadelphia is more complicated. Manager and club president Connie Mack, now 87, named Jimmy Dykes assistant manager and Mickey Cochrahe general manager of the club. Both former athletic greats were working for Connie as coaches. ‘While Dykes and Cochrane moved up, Connie’s son, Earle, who has ' been running the club as assistant manager, became chief player scout. He is to leave “immediately” in search of new talent. } Both the White Sox and A’s have been bitter disappointments so far. The Sox are last, 14% games be- hind the leaders and the A's are sixth, 13 games out. WASHINGTON AND WISCONSIN IN RACE SEATTLE, May 27——It looks as if the weatherman will pelt the straining necks of the Wisconsin and Washington crews today in their two-race eight-oared regatta on Lake Washington. A cool day with occasional show- ers is predicted. ‘The junior varsity race is sched- uled for 3 pm. (PDT) and the WALCOTT FIGHTING 1 IN GERMANY SUNDAY MANNHEIM, Germany, May 27— (#—A German boxer who couldn’t even get a fight in America last| year will climb into the ring against| Jersey Joe Walcott tomorrow to bid | for a shot at the World Heavyweight title. It’s the chance of a lifetime for Hein Ten Hoff, but the betting odds say he won’t cash in on it. Walcott is ruled a solid favorite. .It's the Germans’ first big inter- national ring show since Hitler started them fighting with guns in- stead of gloves. Some 60,000 will probably cheer their national cham- pion. Walcott’s cheering section will include about 8,000 American soldiers. VEW OFFICIALS, ON VISIT TO JUNEAU, GIVE ACTIVITIES Twenty-seven years’ membership in the Auxiliary of the Veterans of Foreign Wars organization, years of service and activity, is the rec- ord of Mrs, Bessie Hanken, Past National President, and 25 years for Mrs. Doris Holm, National Chaplain t¥o women who are in Juneau this weekend for the dv- partment of Alaska conference of VFW being held here from tolay until Tuesday morning. Mrs. Hanken, who is a member of Post 940 in Revere, Mass., was first elected National President in 1928 and has held various national offices since. Her greatest distin- ction and nonor, she said yesterday .n an interview, was being elected president of the board of trustees of the National Home, situated in Eaton Rapids, Michigan, a home for orphans of war veterans. Mrs. Holm was elected National Chaplain last year at Miami and previous to that had served as National Conductress and National Chief of Staff. She is a member of Post 3598 in Evanston, Il In most of their interview, their talk was not of themselves but of the Natvional Home, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and in which Alaska has also played a contributing part. The home consists of 27 bunga- low units, a fully equipped hospital, chapel, guest lodge and nursery for babies. There are at present about | 261 children in the home and the time has come, Mrs. Hanken said, when children who were themselves raised in the home (some from 13 months of sge) are bringing their own children back for visits. This year six youngsters from the high school were sent to Europe, as a good will gesture, one to go to each major country and they will bring back with them six young foreign children who will spend the summer in Eaton Rapids. The six VFW children were picked for the trip on their scholastic records. Alaska’s part in this program was the contribution of $750 to furnish a room of the hospital, besides its regular contributions for upkeep. Another important function of the VFW Auxiliary is the cancer program. In 1947 when the Roscoe Jackson Memorial cancer research labora- tory at Bar Harbor, Maine, burned, the Auxiliary pledged $110,00 to rebuild a portion of the center. Alaska’s Auxiliary contributed $550. The cancer center has been com- pleted and this year the Auxfl- |daries will contribute $50,000 toward cancer work among children, the contribution to be a memorial to Grace H. Davis, first director of Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kan- sas City, Mo. Mrs. Hanken is in charge of all hospital work for VFW Auxiliaries, and came here following a tour of hospitals in the southern states and a meeting with Gen. Gray, in Washington, D. C., head of the Veterans Administration, on hospi- tal work. Mis. Holm will go from here to Montana and other mid-west states, to attend var‘,us state departmeh* conferences, AURORA TRIO WILL PLAY OVER KINY MON Over KINY at 5 o'clock Monday afternoon, the Aurora trio will play instrumental selections. Included in the group are Mrs. Carol Davis, piano; Mrs. Pat Davis Bidwell, cello; and Mrs. Corrine Jenne Kenway, violin. 'The trio will be introduced by Mrs. Elton Engstrom, radio chairman of the Business and Pro- fessional Women’s club. * Just the lift your figure needs when necklines plunge deep-down FILM "MOTHER IS A FRESHMAN" IS AT 20TH CENTURY Capitalizing on the current trend | toward realism, Twentieth Century- | Fox has given the campus a fresh; new look which the rah-rah breth- ren of the raccoon twenties and the frantic thirties wouldn’t recognize. According to previewers, the Tech- | nicolor comedy, “Mother Is a Fresh- | man,” starring Loretta Young and| Van Johnson, due tonight at the! 20th Century Theatre, is a college| movie where students really act like students, with no chorus of shapely chorines, no absent-minded | professor or not even a game-win- ning, last-minute touchdown in the; final reel. | Instead, there is projected against a realistic college background the novel story idea of a lovely young| widow, who, financially embarrassed | after years of luxury, discovers that she is eligible for a college scholar- | ship. Following her sophomore daughter to the campus, she enrolls as a freshman and promptly falls| in love with the handsome profes- sor of English literature, with whom her daughter is also &namoured. Then the story starts. COMMUNITY EVENTS TODAY All Day Poppy Sale by Legion Aux- iliary and VFW.
