Dan Dailey, June Haver and Dennis Day are the stars of this Technicolor production, which has the added inducements of eight catchy new tunes, colorful choreo- graphic designs. and some animat- ed cartoons inserted as story poin- ters to the live action. Unpretentious but sunny-warm entertainment is what the produc- ers of “The Girl Next Door” say they have in mind, and the cast- ing follows this appealing pattern. The popular June Haver displays her richly endowed talents op-- posite the likeable all-around mus- icomedy actor Dan Dailey, and radio’s engaging singing comedian, Dennis Day, gets in his licks as a friend of “The Girl Next Door.” Featured are young Billy Gray, the youngster in the case and no mean musical comedy entertainer is his own right; Cara Williams, Natalie Schafer, Clinton Sundberg, Hayden Rorke and Mary Jane Saunders. “The Girl Next Door” inte- grates its musical numbers to Yur- ther progression of the main story line.

Making Of “All “Ashore” All Work, Rooney Reveals Think being a movie star is fun? Ask Mickey Rooney — you might get a negative answer. The visitor to the set of “All Ashore,” Columbia Pictures’ new musical, in color by Technicolor which shows June 16-17 ‘at the Islander Drive In Theatre, might have witnessed a comedy scene, representing a playground at Ca- talina Island. Dick Haymes, Peg- gy Ryan and Ray McDonald, also starred in the new film, and pretty girl extras in bathing suits are Playing around. Rooney, instead of being part of these happy goings-on was crouch- yea was shovel- ful of sand right in the Mick’s kisser. Director Richard Quine and Producer Jonie Taps were perfec- tionists about the scene, They shot it over and over again. “Cut! That's real funny, Mic- key,” Quine called out finally. Rooney, his face feeling as if it has been sand-blasted, said, “I’m glad everybody’s happy. Next time, my contract says in large type that when I get hit in the kisser, it will be with nothing Tougher than soft custard pie.” In “All Ashore,” Rooney plays @ penniless sailor on shore leave with his shipmates, Haymes and McDonald. The film features nine songs, giving the stars ample op- Portunity to sing, dance and clown ~; and giving Rooney another case of work! The actor had to keep up with — and top if he could! — the romantic croonings of Haymes, one of the nation’s most popular singers, and the brilliant dancing of Peggy Ryan and Ray McDon- ald, considered the country’s top young dance team. In addition, Rooney. carried the bulk of the picture's comedy. Blake Edwards and Richard Quin wrote the screen play for “All Ashore.” Quine directed, for producer Jonie Taps, JUNE 21 TO 27 {Continued From Perse One) and elect their government offi- cials, They elect a Boy Governor and fill other elective offices, set up their own state legislature, courts and law enforcing agen- cies.

A stenographer turned house- wife, she, like her husband and her brother, was a product of Man- hattan’s tenement area. She is now 87. Rosenberg is 25. The significance the government attached to these arrests was first revealed by Myles J. Lane, then as assistant U. S. attorney, He said at Mrs. Rosenberg’s arraign- ment: “If the crime with which she is charged had not cecurred, perhaps we would not have had the present situation in Korea.” The crime alleged was as fas- cinating in a cloak-and-dagger way as anything ever dreamed up in fiction. The Rosenbergs were ac- cused of trarsmitting military se- crets to Soviet Russia themselves and through Greenglass, who was pictured as a hero-worshipper of his brother-in-law and a pliable tool in the older man’s hands. Gold, it was alleged, picked up A-bomb secrets from’ Fuehs and Greenglass at Los Alamos. He identified himself to Greenglass with a torn piece of a Jello box top. It matched the other half in Greenglass’ possession. Greenglass just that reason by the Rosenbergs. Informed of these allegations, Rosenberg reportedly “laughed out | loud.” | Emanuel H. Bloch, a ee | attorney who was to devote days and months and years to Rosen- berg’s case, entered the picture at this point as his defense counsel and told reporters of the Jello top plot: “He. called it fantastic—some- thing like his kids hear over tele- vision on the Lone Ranger pro- ‘am.” Bloch, 52, is a stocky Columbia University law graduate. On Aug. 17, 1950, the government indicted Anatoli Yakovlev, former Russian vice consui in New York. But it was like indicting a shadow. He had slipped back to Russa in 1946 and there was no way the Congress has been asked to authorize use of volcanic dust from the Katmai National Monument for the making of building blocks for Alaskan military construction says the National Geographic Society.

Also Yakovlev was devicted as the sinister link, holding together such Giversified plotters as the urbané Fuchs, the rabbity Gold, the putty- like Greenglass and the bold, snickering Rosenbergs. The government said Yakovlev provided the $500 which Green- glass admitted accepting as the price of his treachery. On Aug. 18, 1950, the govern- ment arrested the last of the star players in this macabre betrayal. He was Morton Sobell, 36, who had fled to Mexico before the Rosen- bergs were arrested. But he was deported and American agents were waiting for him at the border town of Laredo, Tex. Sobell, an electrical engineer, had served the Navy as a wartime radar expert. A native New York- er, his parents came from Russia. He and Rosenberg were classmates at the City College of New York. He had a wife and two small chil- dren. A man who worked with him classified him as “a genius type.” Sobell, it was charged, took part with the Rosenbergs in the plot to pervert Greenglass and to fur- nish secrets to Soviet Russia. The | Rosenbergs and Sobell pleaded in- | nocent to the conspiracy charges, But on Oct. 18, 1950, David Green- glass, with bowed head, pleaded guilty and prepared for the diffi- cult role that doomed his sister and her husband.

Nevertheless, such a conspiracy in time of war, even in behalf of an ally, carried a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison or death. In time of peace, the maximum penalty was 20 years. Ruth Greenglass, 29, was named not a defendant but a co-conspira- tor, the government counting on of a conspirator was Harry Gold, w in December, 1950, was sentenced to 30 years in prison, Thus began the grimly histatic case the Communist party later was to label an American Dreyfus case, The reference was to Alfred Dreyfus, a French offieér con- victed as a traitor in the pa: century and sent to Devil's Isl; Dreyfus cleared his name eventue ally and was restored to Army duty.
