Cavanaugh, an attorney, filed suit in 1952 against President Harry S. Truman in an attempt to enjoin him from using American soldiers in Korea. The attorney contended Mr. Truman had usurped his Presi- | %: dential powers, A judge in Cleveland recently dismissed the action because Truman was no longer President. Thus the suit filed against the former President failed, although Cavanaugh is as yet undismayed. He announced, after the dismissal, that he would keep an eye on the present Administration and if it did not act according to Hoyle, in his opinion, he would take action against it. He said he would wait six months and see what the Republican Administration does. Then, if the new Ad- ministration did nothing, he would “start up again,” While we do not give Mr. Cavanaugh a chance, in his proposed suit, we wonder what would happen if he ac- tually won it. We assume, if he was victorious, that Con- gress would quickly pass legislation-enabling the Presi- dential action involving troops in Korea to be be. con- tinued, Thus we suggest, to the attorne a losing battle.

Few people conduct their social affairs without re- gard to money, unfortunately.

All that experience but not pictures. “Selznick went off to Europe and it didn’t look as if he would make any pictures,” Madison said. ‘So I asked for my release and got it.” And after that? “I starved a little,” he said. But that didn’t last for long. He and Andy Devine got together on a TV series built around the Wild Bill Hickok character. Both of them tossed their future with it, even to turning down pictures in the months between making the pilot film and selling the series. Their gamble paid off. Wild Bill and his rotund buddy, Jingles, caught on with the kid crowd immediately. Their smiling faces beam from breakfast food boxes in every grocery store in the land. The series also led to a radio show and to the merchandise line which is a gold mine for all famed cowboys. Guy Madison, whose film career was standing still two years ago, turned to a TV series about Wild Bill Hickok. With the film job and portraying Hickok on radio and TV, plus tours to promote his merchandise, Madi- son is a busy cowpoke. He has even dropped 15 pounds in the rigorous toutine. But he doesn’t seem to mind. He remembers other days. “Sometimes I would go a year and a half between pictures,” he recalled. “I was under contract to pes 0. opens for six years never make a picture for him.” Madison has had an amazing career. film début was a three- minute bit in Selznick’s “Since You bees tio Madison, who was in service at the time, went away to the Navy, but he left an in the film. Bobbysox- jers went wild for him, and the Selanick press agents fed the fire with fan magazine layouts of the young man’s muscular frame. ‘k signed him to a contract after he left the Navy. He was thrust into a lead with Dorothy McGuire in “Till the End of Time,” which Guy considers his best picture. But his film career was anticlimactic after that. His boss loaned him out for an occasional picture. In between, he posed for photo layouts and did some stage work. Once he toured the Eastern stages for eight months. It was. good experience for a tyro actor who had never Capsule Review: “Man on a Tightrope” is a rare attraction—a movie with a message that is en- tertaining as well. The story, based partly on fact, tells of the efforts of a circus troupe to break through to the free side of the Iron Curtain. The propaganda is told subtly, not as a battle of ideologies but as the struggle of a believer in individual- ism, The story is filmed against the bizarre circus background and real European locations.
