Once in lafftime such mirthful of fun comes to the screen!
 In Change of Heart" 20th Gen. tury-Fox production which opens Wednesday at the Loew Poli theater Gloria Stuart gives up her hubby, Michael Whalen, for her hobby golf.
 Thus we find a green-eyed hus- band who believes womanS place is in the home; an independent wife who believes a woman's place is on { the golf links . and inevitably, the playboy friend, who believes a woman's place is in his arms.
 They present new angle on love you try to find funnier one.
 Gloria wins cups and tournaments while hubby Michael spends every moment steeped in business. He comes home from a trip to find no welcoming spouse standing at the garden gate.
 Instead there is note saying she is of to golf championship tour nament. Maybe, the note implies, if she has nothing else to do, she'll crowd in dinner with him.
 Michael, like every red -blooded husband, slams few things around and decides to eat by himself Gloria walks into the middle of this solo and the first of long spat series begins.
 Lyle Talbot, enthusiastic about golf and Gloria, is the playboy who plays a great part in solving the tee triangle.
 But when Gloria's hubby inter- feres with her hobby, this golf crazy wife gives up her hubby.
 And it takes a pup Delmar Wat son's) to patch things up.
 Change of Heart" features Miss Stuart and Whalen with Lyle Tal- bot, Delmar Watson and Jane Dar- well in the supporting cast. The screen play was written by Frances Hyland and Albert Ray. Direction was by James Tinling, with Sol M. Wurtzel as executive producer.
 On the same program is another big hit entitled "Tarzan's Revenge" :" with Glenn Morris and Eleanor Holm, the "glamor girl of America" !"
 Tonight ends the engagement of Wallace Beery in ''The Bad Man of Birthstone" and Mama Runs Wild" with Mary Roland.

Reporter Barred From Attending Meeting Statement
 to Public Relayed Through Publicity Manager

The board of managers of the Citizens Good Government Associa- ton met last night at Hotel Elton and although it is claimed that there are "2,000 plus members from all strata of citizenship" in the town, it was an executive meeting" in a sense of the phrase, with this re- porter barred. The Democrat re- porter was offered "coverage" by John F. McEinden, attorney repre- senting certain Fusion party candi- dates in the October election re- count in superior court, as of today, and declined.
 Reporter Reports
 It was suggested by the reporter that possibly "a Republican might inform him as to the matters of moment designed at the meeting. This failing, as of m1d-morning, in spite of the assurance of William J. Burke, erstwhile temporary presi- dent of the association" and presi- dent of the Waterbury branch of the Merit System Association, Inc, the reporter reports" from the Re- publican as follows:
 Harold F. White, treasurer of Blake & Johnson Company, was elected president .. The board was empowered at recent meeting to elect the associations officers. Other officers are:
 First vice-president, Joseph E. Nelly; second president, Hugo Guastaferri; third vice-president Michael J. Dempsey; secretary, John F. McLinden; assistant secretary James B. Griffin; treasurer, Freder- ick L. Nuhn; assistant treasurer Earl H. Segur."

That long awaited musical love story I'll Take Romance" starring Grace Moore, lovely lady of song together with Melvyn Douglas, Helen Westley and Stuart Erwin, headlines the two stellar attractions which open three day engagement at the popular Warmers State the ater starting today. This superb film is so hilarious, so gayly roman tic, so joyous with song and swing that it hits the high note of the year in joyous romance.
 If you've been waiting to see Miss Moore step down from the lofty planes of opera to indulge in a bit of "hot-cha' here is your opportun- ity.
 The story cavorts amiably through New York's night clubs and pent houses and winds up in the Argen- tine, under the highly advertised Pampas Moon. Briefly, it tells of Miss Moore's refusal to honor a contract to sing at the Buenos Aires Opera House. She intends to sail to Paris instead. Melvyn Douglas en- ters the scene at this time as rep resentative of the opera company on a mission of persuasion. Stuart Erwin, as Pancho Brownelli, better known as Pete Brown, retired Brooklyn taxi driver, acts as Doug las aide -de-camp.
 Douglas keeps his identity secret, acts the infatuated lover, courts Miss Moore in lavish style, and when all else fails, kidnaps her. By this time Miss Moore has fallen in love with the persistent Douglas and is 8 willing victim to his plot.
 Supporting the stars in import ant roles are Richard Carle, Mar garet Hamilton, Ester Muir, Ferdi- hand Gottschalk and Walter Kings ley.
 The second big hit '"The Patient in Room 18", Warner Brothers mystery, co-stars Ann Sheridan and Patric Knowles, the latest addition to the ranks of cinema sleuths.

Mckinley Dinner Here
 May Witness Action
Presidential Possibilities FavOrte Sons May Be Spot lighted When COP. Heads Assemble to Greet Frank

Test of the strength of Dr. Glenn Frank, chairman of the Republican party's national program committee, as a presidential possibility in 194O will be his appearance at Water bury Feb. 9 at the Mckinley Asso- ciation dinner, political writers through the state are commenting. For then the former president of the University of Wisconsin, liberal Republican and one of the new strain with which the party is seek ing strength will be committed to make some announcement of party plan.
 Results CD
 Will it be a program which would offer the general precepts of the New Deal, seek support of various adherentS to the Democratic regime under a new guise? Will it be a definitely anti-New Deal stand? Will Dr. Frank succeed in impress ing Connecticut Republicans to the extent that they will pledge SUD- port?
 These are few Of the questions being asked on the eve of the state and national elections of the latter part of this year, when choosing of a candidate for 1940 must be made, at least in the "build-up" stage.
 It is generally conceded that the populous middle west must have consideration if there are not strong enough candidates to swing, with out question, such eastern states as New York, Pennsylvania, New Eng land and majority of the Atlantic group, immediately recognized in this section. Connecticut lacks a favorite son of sufficient promin- ence to make it incumbent on the state delegation to pledge itself, as the present shows the situation.
 Possibilities
 Will Dr. Frank impress sufficient ly to obtain his first support in this state? Even New England has a paucity of contenders for the na- tional honors although Bridges of New Hampshire, and Governor Aiken of Vermont have made bids for prominence in party councils the latter recently when he took

the association met in private dining room next to the main dining room at Hotel Elton at o'clock. MT. Burke greeted the managers" and reported, outside the door, that he had obtained "109 new members during the week, 25 paying, the others non-paying," making the to- tai no. He had collected, he said $40, which he turned over to man presumed to be temporary treas urer."
 One of the managers" asked what the membership is at the present, ventured an estimate, "1,- 400 or 150O," whereupon MT. Burke added his quota of 109. The asso- citation, lauded editorially as meri- torious enterprise so long as it remained "non-partisan" was pro- noted by the coupon method, abandoned recently to make place for canvass for members by mem bers of the board of managers"
 By report offered the Republican newspaper, MT. Nelly, first vice. president, offered suggestion that, as soon as permanent headquarters are established, there will be a membership drive. He is quoted as claiming a present membership of 1000 and saying that he sees no reason why it should not be eX- banded to at least 10000"
 What Is A Democrat"
 Note: The total vote of the Re- publican and Independent Demo- crats at last election was slightly in excess of 19,000. MT. Burke, re- marking that he "is a Democrat ,' took issue with The Democrat re- porter on the proposition of what l is a Democrat"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-02-01

issue with the personnel chosen as leaders at the campaign start.
 The Waterbury meeting is consid- cred point of great importance in the career of Dr. Frank towards potential presidential candidacy by such state writers as Robert D.. Byrnes, of the Hartford Courant, who devoted considerable speculative surmise in a recent article to the Mckinley association dinner at Ho- tel Elton on Washington's birthday.
 Political Speaker
 Commentator Byrnes does not ex- pect Dr. Frank "to lay before the segment of the national Republican party which meets him there Cat Waterbury, any detailed presenta- tion of what he thinks the program committee should do" But, observes Byrnes, "he will appear in Connecti- cut as a political speaker, before a political gathering, and there is ev- cry reason to expect that he will offer something in the way of guid- ance to the party"
 Further, Whatever the country wide reaction toward Dr. Frank may be as result of the eventual report of the program committee, and the first impression has been that by taking the chairmanship he gave his own 1940 prospects a severe setback, Connecticut will be dis posed to consider Dr. Frank sepa- rately from the committee report, and whether he is ranked above or below the committee will depend on what indications of his own ideas he gives at the Mckinley dinner"
