THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1951 : SHOWPLALE or %fll‘ll{l LEAVES TONIGHT! THE MANHUNT THAT ROCKED THE WORLD! §kar’rin| Howard DUFF - Marta TOREN P l WS wuma= “DEVIL'S HENCHMEN" 7:05 — 9:45 “SPY HUNT’—8:13—10:54 TOMORROW! |neers of Alaska and Auxiliary, 8! Bear Used for Effect, Feature . . Now at Capilol When Director George Sherman failed to get desired closeups of two snarling black panthers for an important sequence in Universal- International’'s “Spy Hunt,” now at the Capitol Theatre, because the animals working in the film were too contented, the studio prop de- partment sent out and hired a huge bear. The bear was brought into the sound stage and paraded before the cages of the panthers which, inci- dentally, hate bears so that the big cats would give forth with the de- sired snarls. Eric Taylor's script for “The Devil's Henchmen,” the second fea- ture, is reported to be concerned with @ notorious port of thieves,! the no-man's-land of crime, where loot from the seven seas incites crime and murder! Into this devil's lair walks Baxter, whose dangerous mission is to ferret out and entrap| the leaders of the waterfront gang. When a disgruntled gang mem- ber is done away with by Mazurki, | 1 dim-witted giant, Baxter worms his way into the gang's confidence Yy playing dumb under grilling by, nvestigating detectives. The thrill- ng climax occurs when Baxter par- | icipates with the gang in a big; 1:aul and helps trap it with the r00ds, also unmasking the identity of the gang’s master mind at the same time.

MEETING ' seriously considered anybody other { than Stanky. Cards Angling For Eddie Stanky As New Manager NEW YORK, Nov. 20—(P—Eddie/ Stanky virtually is certain of suc- ceeding Marty Marion as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals. No definite agreement has been reached as yet, but presidents Horace Stoneham of the New York Giants and Fred M. Saigh of the Cardinals will meet within the next few days with the hope of closing the deal, brewing since the World Series. \ | The transaction may not be an- nounced until the minor league convention in Columbus next week. | The Cards will be asked to turn! over pitcher Max Lanier and out- fielder Chuck Diering for Stanky, who will then sign as a player- manager with the Redbirds for a two-year contract at $35,000 per season. Although Saigh has been quoted as saying that he had three men in mind for the job, he has not It was only a question whether Stoneham was willing to part with the Giants’ scrappy second base- man, admittedly the inspirational spark who drove the team to the National League flag last season. o e e e e e e e e Sports in Brief At Boston — The Boston Red Sox traded catcher Les Moss and out- figlder Tom Wright to the St. Louis Browns for catcher Gus Niarhos anc ou.l clder Ken Wood. At New York — Giants' President Horace Stoneham confirmed that St. Louis owner Fred Saigh wanted Eddie Stanky for Cards’ manager.

The end of the non-title 10 round bout, found the 7,397 spectators on their feet, cheering the unpredict- able “brat” lustily. Then, when the verdict was an- nounced—the referee for Bratton, one judge for Gavilan, the other calling it a standoff—the crowd cheered even wilder. Probably never before,- even in victory, had the brat been so pop- ular with his home towners. He went into the bout scaling an over-the-limit 149 pounds, as did Gavilan, the Cuban Kid. Brat- ton was a 3-1 underdog. Princefon Again Wins Lamberf Cup As Tops in East NEW YORK, Nov. 20—M—For the second year in a row, Princeton has been named winner of the Lam- bert Trophy, symbolic of eastern college football supremacy. The all-conquering Tigers today were named first on the ballots of all but one of the 83 voters. Sports- writers, sportscasters_and Lambert Trophy trustees took part in the balloting, Once-beaten Holy Cross finished in second place and undefeated, un- tied Bucknell took third. Jack Lavelle, scout for the New York football Giants, cast his vote for Holy Cross, declaring that “Holy Cross would beat Princeton, in my opinion, if they were matched.” Two writers selected Maryland as eastern champion with the proviso that if the Terps were not eligible, the votes should go to Princeton. Marylaru, & member of the South- ern Conference, was not considered an eastern team by the trustees. Sox Send Cafcher Who Cost $100,000 Back fo Browns ¥BOSTON, Nov. 29—®—By mark- ing off an estimated $100,000 out- lay, the Boston Red Sox today were #d of Les Moss, their most disap- inting catching investment, after friing i-ameteighth Gutfielder | of . major league calibre. Moss, obtained from the St. Louis Browns last June for that huge sum plus Matt Batts, another | backstep, was sent to his old club, along with Tom Wright, a rookie outfielder. In return the Red Sox recelved Gus Niarhos, the slightly built catcher, and Ken Wood, an éxceptionally - strong-armed out- fielder. Playing in 71 games, Moss batted a feeble .198, thereby convincing new manager Lou Boudreau that catching was “the club’s most trouble-some 1952 problem. Wright spent most of the past season with the Louisville American Association farm club. Winter Program for Juneau Gun (lub !Opens Friday Night The Juneau Rifle and' Pistol Club will begin its winter shooting pro- Disney’s Film '‘Dumbo’ Tonight At 20th Century The annals of all celebrated ele- phant acts were consulted before 'deciding upon the spectacular stunt performed by pachyderms in Walt Disney’s “Dumbo,” which intro- duced nine tuneful hits. This fea- ture opens tonight at the 20th Century Theatre. In “Dumbo,” the story of a baby elephant born into a circus, the ele- phants, like all Disney characters, perform as real people. They gos- sip, complain and in general behave like a set of haughty dowagers. Dis- ney compels them to undertake a “pyramid” act in .which one ele- phant, standing on an enormous ball, supports the others on her back and the snobbish “ladies” have considerable difficulty maintaining their dignity! Army Has Slim Upset Hope in 0B For Navy Tussie WEST POINT, N.Y. Nov. 20—M —Army will go into Saturday's an- nual football tussle against Navy jat Philadelphia with only one player that Coach Earl Blaik believes would have even an outside chance of breaking into the Middles’ start- ing lineup. That young man is Frederic D. Meyers, 19-year-old quarterback, from Enid, Okla. Army’s hopes of upsetting the experienced Middies depend largely on Meyers' pitching arm and his legs. He also does the punting and is"a right fair country runner. Blaik today called Meyers poten- tially a first rate operator but lack- ing the experience of the Navy quarterbacks — Bob Zastrow and Mike Sorrentino. The Navy signal callers both are seniors. Meyers is a turnback, which means he played plebe ball last year but flunked one course and had to start'all over again. Describe Foothall Star Who Died as "Clean, Hard Player BATON ROUGE, La., Nov. 20—(® —Nick Liotta was “a hard player and a very clean player,” says Louisiana State University's foot- ball, o-captaifh. who played opposite and again last Saturday. Liotta was found dead yesterday Iin the basement of his dormitory, a telephone wire around his neck. A deputy coroner issued a certificate of accidental death and told news- men Liotto died of a heart attack. L8SU Co-Capt. Ray Potter comes from Peabody, Mass., about 10 miles from Liotta’s home town of Everett, Mass. {Former Wash.
