STARTS TONIGHT "HAPPY YEARS™ AT CAPITOL TONIGHT, MEMORIAL DAY “The Happy Years,” new MGM attraction at the Capitol Theatre tonight and continuous shows to- morrow, Memorial Day, is a picture which every member of the family can enjoy to his heart’s content. Based on the American boyhood stories about Lawrenceville Acad- emy made famous several decade: ago by Owen Johnson, the Techni- color photoplay is filled with de- lightful humor, tender touches anc heartwarming characterjzations.

The role of Dink is taken by Dean Stockwell and other juveniles are Darryl Hickman, Scotty Beckett, and Donn Gift.

AT 20TH CENTURY “Task Force,” one of Warner Bros." greatest productions of the post-war period, arrives at the 20th Century tonight for a three-day run Starring Gary Cooper, “Task Force” is the story of naval aviation with emphasis on the aircraft car- riers which helped achieve the vic- tory in the Pacific and over which there is much controversy in de- fense circles even today. Besides Cooper, the picture fea- tures Jane Wyatt, Wayne Mornsl and W. Brennan. An interesting ) sidelight concerning Morris’ role is that during the war he portrayed the same role, only in the real sense as a pilot on board the Essex, one of the Navy's most illustrious carriers which saw action all the way to the final big show at Oki- nawa A tender love story forms a great part of the film as Jane Wyatt, sweetheart and then wife of the stalwart but impetuous Lieut.
