Said the Youngstown Vindicator: “The handful of special guests who {had the good fortune to see a pre- view of the fabulous movie ‘Red | Shoes’ yesterday afternoon . . . were | so pleased and astounded that at | the conclusion of the performance | they did not wish to leave their seats.” The Cincinnati Enquirer felt al-E {most the same way. It said:' “After | seeing ‘The Red Shoes’ . . . we won- | der why Hollywood does not more! often attempt something of similar | quality and beauty.” | | “Red Shoes” which opens tonight‘\ |at the Gross 20th Century after its | { phenomenal two year run in New | | York and elsewhere, has established | new standards not merely in tech- | nique and subject-matter, accord- ing to many critics, but in the| number and variety of laurels it |‘th gathered. 89 LEAVE, 42 ARRIVE YESTERDAY ON ACA Tuesday’s flights of Alaska Coast- | al Airlines carried 131 passengers {between Juneau and other points. | Eighty-nine left and 42 were brought here yesterday. ‘\ Here from Sitka are Francine !
