Ezzell of Anchorage is stop- ping at the Baranof Hotel, DANNY KAYE HERE TONGHT IN SHOW AT 20TH CENTURY| Danny Kaye sweeps the screer in a riotous display of song anc dance, clowning, and just plai acting, bringing his amazing ver- sality into full swing in 'rhe In spector General.” The film, photo graphed in color, opens today at the 20th Centuly Theatre. “The Inspector General” is thec play Danny Kaye has long wante to make into a picture. Its theme o mistaken identity gives the talent- ed entertainer his greatest chance at nonsense with 2 kick in it. Portraying a not-too-smart bar ker in Walter Slezak's gypsy medi- cine show, Danny is forced out of town by victims of S k's ne farious business methods. He finds refuge /in a graft-ridden villag whose mayor mistakes him for the expected Inspector General gives him a royal welcome.. Slezak shows up, anticipating a share in Danny’s good fortune, the fireworks begin, never waning right up to a smashingly funny climax. Walter Slezak, Barbara Bates, Elsa Lanchester and Gene Lock- hart round out the cast. —EMPIRE WANT ADS PAY— REBEKAH DRILL TEAM VCTES §25 FOR CONCERT TRIP Irma Geyer, Mary Kirkham and { ezgy Mclver were hostesses last i ight for the Rebekah Drill Team Jub at IOOF hail.
