Hollywood Playhouse, the Twentieth Century-Fox film star turns to the daring and romantic character of Dizzy Davis, whose gay exploits and disregard for danger win him both trouble and affection. A vigorous, forceful part, 1t is believed to pro- vide an ideal role for Tyrone Power. The locale of the play is laid in the Operations Office of an Air Line in Newark, key spot for the armada of planes that fly the mail and passengers. All the tensity and drama concentrated in this central point have been incorporated in the radio dramatization.
 A Hollywood cast will support Power and Harry Sosnik and his or chestra will provide the orchestral background.

Nov, Mr.. Mitchell" Evans
prompted.
why, yes, I remember that I
washed my face and hands and
brushed my teeth before retiring.
I usually battle in the morning,
though"
Evans nodded. And then you
went to the door to see if it was
locked for the night?"
yes"
There had been nothing un-
usual in your preparations for
bed?"
NO"
And, not being in the habit
of reading in bed, you were with
out your spectacles when you
opened the door,"
Mitchell blinked and hesitated.
Before he could reply Evans
said, "Of course, you removed
them to wash, didn't you?"
To Be Continued.
Witness Agrees, Yet
Question Confusing
"Of course" Mitchell muir
INJURED dazedly, "but, you see, I
was going to read in bed, so I
may have had them on"
But you are not sure?"
well"
yes or no"
I'm not positive"
And not being positive of your
ability to distinguish objects
clearly and with certainty at any
considerable distance, you are yet
perfectly willing to come here
and swear to a story that places
a young girls life in jeopardy"
Object" cried Miles. THE
witness observation must have
been all right, since even the de-
tense has admitted that Miss
Fowler was holding the dagger
in her hand at the time Mr.. Mitch
ell saw her. That is an admls-
sion that the witness saw cor
rectly and clearly"
IF the court please" said
Evans, the statement that Mr..
Mitchell originally made to the
police, and which is a matter Of
record, set forth that he saw in
Miss Fowler's hand as she stood
outside Miss Shannon's door,
something that glittered in the
light like a blade in substantially
those words. Whereupon he added
his conclusion that it must have
been the dagger, because he had
read about it in the newspaper &C
counts of the murder.
Although the defense freely
admits that Miss Fowler was hold
ing the weapon in her hand, since
SlIC subsequently, OOOA AZ w AAOA
room, we do maintain that the
power of suggestion had lot to
do with Mr.. Mitchell's identifying
the glittering object as a dagger,
because he himself admits that it
didn't occur to him at the time
that it was dagger.
Miss Fowler's detailed public
statement of her activities on the
night of the murder is a matter
of public record. She denies hav-
ing been in Miss Shannon'S room,
and the witness now on the stand,
who admits being near-sighted,
and who further admits that he
doesn't know whether he had his
Spectacles on at the time, says
that he saw her emerging from
Miss Shannon's apartment. We
are attacking the credibility of
MI, Mitchell's testimony, naturally
