The new offering marks the sec- | ond straight dramatic characteriza- tion for Miss De Haven, who started ‘out in films as a moppet star and began her adult career in musical and. romantic roles. In “Scene of the Crime” she played a girl who tried to lure Van Johnson into a murder trap. In “The Doctor and the Girl” she is seen as Glenn Ford’s younger sister whose romance with a married man leads to tragedy. Charles Coburn and Janet Leigh are also starred in the powerful 'swry of a young doctor who has to :choose between his family and the | girl whom they feel to impede his |career.

TRUMAN NAMES MAYOR O'DWYER | AS AMBASSADOR WASHINGTON, Aug. 15—#—The White House announced today that President Truman will nominate Mayor William O’Dwyer of New York City as Ambassador to Mexiou.! Presidential Secretary Charles G. Ross told reporters the nomination will be sent to the Senate about +Sept. 1. THOMAS LEAVES AFTER COLLECTING ALASKA MATERIAL On the eve of his departure after two weeks in Juneau; Lowell . Thomas added to the wealth of! material he has obtained here by conferring with another Eastern| visitor—Dr. Louis O. Quam of the/ Office of Naval Research. Last night, the two got together at the Juneau Hotel and compared notes chiefly about the work of {%e| Juneau Icefield Research Project | (JIRP) and of activities to the north, Chief civillan sponsor ofj| the expedition is the American Geographical Soclety of New Y(fx. Thomas, famous world explorer| and news commentator, was booked to Seattle today via Pan American, | enroute to the East with his cam- eraman, John Roberts of Boston. “The squire of Pawling, N. Y." called his fortpight in Alaska a vacation, but he has acquired a vast store of information about tlie region, and made several wire re- cordings for future network broad- cast. He and Roberts spent a week on the Jyneau Ice Cap with mem- | bers of the JIRP expedition. Dr. Quam plans to go to the Ice Cap Saturday, to represent the O.NR. for about ten days before going to Point Barrow on another mission. “It's a great work those young men are doing on the Ice Cap,”| Thomas told Quam. “I am par-| ticularly impressed with Maynard Miller, the expedition leader. He| has unusual ability—a great Or- ganizer with immense enthusiasm and energy, besides a brilliant | mind. He is surrounded by bril- liant young men. “I was especially impressed,” commented the distinguished vis-| itor, “by the way the entire ex-| pedition help each other. When the ice lab people needed extra help—just plain physical labor— the whole crowd turned to.” Thomas said he and his photo- | grapher took several trips in &%- foot deep crevasses, Roberts getting some fine shots there. The most serious “accident” was a sclentific one: Geologists Robert Forbes and Arthur Gilkey had in- dustriously collected important specimens to be sent out by plane. Sludging across the Ice Cap to deliver them, there was a slip— and all 200 dropped into a crevasse. That means re-doing the whole thing. Thomas reports that Dr, Henri Bader, noted Swiss-born glaciol- ogist; his assistant, Gerald Wasser- burg, and Anders K. Anderson, dia- mond drill expert, have been swc- cessful in solving their major prob- lem. This was to get water for the drill equipment with which the ice is being penetrated to a 600- foot depth for analysis. Meteorologist Frederick A. Milan and his assistant, Charles O. Har- rington, are up all hours of the day and night, says Thomas. Besides their other duties. they send out| daily weather reports for correla- tion with all Alaska stations. Botanist Calvin Heusser is living alone atop a subsidiary glacier | | Thomas of his ‘ a ski “pro” at Fairbanks. even got him to talking war services with the British forces in Burma and other parts of the| China-Burma-India theatre. Milan’s work in the JIRP expe- dition is chiefly in meteorology. He has just learned that the U. S.| Geological Survey at Denver wants | to use their triangulation systém | in compiling the next two top- ographic quadrangles in this area. These will extend toward the Ice Cap from the recently published ones of Juneau and parts of Doug- las Island, Dr. Willard Nicholl, the “medical officer” of the party, and Secretary Frederick A. Small have taken over the major responsibility for feeding the group at the main camp. “They experiménted with the Al- aska cookbook Mrs. Ernest Gruen- ing gave them,” said Thomas, “but their first try at corn bread was somewhat sad. Small said he is sure the formula is ok, but evi- dently their procedure was not." Two JIRP visitors, mountain {climbing Victor Fritz and Herbert J. Kothe, have made themselves invaluable in the culinary depart- ment, according to Thomas. This is Kothe’s first visit to Al- aska. He came here after ten days with the Canadian Alpine Club at Maligne Lake, Alberta—the largest glacial lake in the Canadian Rock- ies, Glacier study is a hobby with Kothe, who is a research chemist |for the New York laboratories of Standard Brands. He accepted the invitation of Miller and others of the Soclety, to work on an assigned problem during his vacation. COMMUNITY EVENT: TODAY At 8 p.m.—Oddfellows, IOOF Hall.

Don’t Drink If Here, Says Bandif- It Ain't Lawful LONG BEACH, Calif.,, Aug. 15— (A—Two gunmen who stole $90 from liquor store owner John Burr yes- terday evidently have some respect for the law, after all. One of the bandits lifted a bottle of whiskey from the shelf and started to take a drink. I “Not here,” cautiorred his com- | panion. “This is an off-sale place, It's against the law.” #= PAGE THRER W e, TDAENTuRY 20TH CENTURY HERE TONIGHT! ——— SHOWS at — 7:15- 9:30 Mickey Rooney, Brian Donlevy, FEATURES—7:45-10:00 Ann Blyth and James Dunn are the | principals of M-G-M's vivid “Killer |; McCoy" which opens tonight at the | Gross 20th Century Theatre. Young Rooney reaches the peak of his acting career in this story of Tommy McCoy, tough tenement kid who achieves notoriety when he ac- cidentally kills his opponent in the prize ring with an unlucky punch. Big time gambler Jim Caighn be- comes interested in the young fighter and gives him a build-up as a boxer who nfust rely on his left punch. In reality, Tommy packs a terrific right, and theé gambler intends to make a clean-up before his victims get wise. Meanwhile Tommy falls in love with the pro- | moter’'s daughtear, Sheila, but Caighn, wanting her to marry well, opposes thein friendship. When Tommy is scheduled to meet Patsy Cigones, number one challenger for .he title, Caighn tricks Cecil Walsh, a rival gambler, into placing fifty thousand on Cigones. While drunk, Tommy's weakling father, Brian, re- veals that Caighn is backing Tommy which results in Walsh’s henchmen fidnapping both Brian and Sheila. He then notifies Tommy that to insure their safety he must throw .he fight in the eighth round. The suspense that is engendered up to the story’s thrilling climax makes for explosive dramatic material. Rooney, usually seen in comedy parts, once again reveals his re- markable versatility in his straight cole as the “Killer,” and is given orilliant support by Brian Donlevy as the glib tongued Caighn, and Blyth as the appealing Sheila, and James Dunn as the young prize- fighter’s ne'er-do-well father. | {ADDED.
