"Feminine Touch" gay, four-cor. nered romantic tangle.
 It's @ moot point whether the ladies or their mae partners will get the biggest kick out of the new film, "The Feminine Touch" coming to Loew's Poll Friday. This film has to do with the emotion known as jealously.
 '"rhe Feminine Touch" concerns fairly patient wife, Rosalind Rus sull, whose husband constantly de- rides all expression of jealously. Don Ameche is the male spouse -on-ice, whose cold scientific reasoning sounds moderately convincing in book which is called "The Female Of The Species" The wife doesn't agree with him about the theory, but the two decide to go to New York to dispose of the book.
 There, in their prospective pulp fishers office, they meet Kay Francis, a literary expert and also an alert Judge of men. She takes the author under her wing, much to the wife's discontinue, and the trouble begins pronto. Van Heflin, of the New York stage, is the pulp fisher, a play-seeking sort of fellow who can't help fal ing in love with every pretty girl he meets.
 There's the situation as Ameche and Mrs Francis start the job of editing his book. It takes virtually all of their time. The eternal tri- angle is cut up in slices, and cast to the winds in the four -cornered rnixup that follows.
 Miss Russell, g:Ways scintil.ating and at her best in swift-moving comedy, has one of her finest roles Kay Francis, exudlng metropolitan capitalization, was never better cast. Don Ameche, as the rather bewil- dered college professor who writes thesis on jealously before having had any experience with the green- eyed emotion, Is deft.y hilarious, and the rcreen audience will we come the suave performance by Van TIeflin, who won hls spurs in the Broadway theater.
 On the same program VIC will also present another great feature, Small Town Deb" with Jane WIthers.
 This complete double feature pro- gram will be shown at our Early Bird Show Bird Show on Saturday morning at 1000 a. m. with absolu- tely no raise in prices.

STRAND

Stars, thrills, drama. all combine to make "Dr. Jekyll and MT. Hyde" opeEing today at Warmers Strand theater, one of the seasons most exciting films. Spencer Tracy plays the dual title character, Ingrid Berg tna1i is seen for the first time as a bad girl" and Lana Turner is cast as T1acy's financee.
 It is Tracy's Geifneation of the dual personality of the good pr. Jekyll and the evil MT. Hyde which again proves his artistry. He had s1o need of surperhuous horror make up for MT. Hyde. Ills change of facial expression achieved even more than any makeup alone could have done.
 Miss Turner definitely steps into the category of dramatic actresses as Beatrix Emery. She injects a spirited flavor to the role of the Victorian girl who is willing to defy convention for the love of her sweet heart and more than justifles her recent elevation to stardom.
 More superlatives may be used to describe the performance of Ingrid Bergman as Ivy Peteson, barroom entertainer ill-fated from the mo- Slent her path crosses that of Jekyll. Her scenes of terror before the menacing Hyde will long be remem- bered.
 All in all "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" starring Spencer Tracy Il the dual role is truly one picture that must be seen to be thoroughly enjoyed. Put 1t on your must list and plan to see 1t at the Strand before the Closeing performances Saturday evening.

It's 6 saft bet that you'll enjoy the biggest laugh you've ever had when you see Bob Hope in his latest laugh-f1lled hit Nothing But The Truth" which opened Q four day engagement this afternoon at War ner's State theater.
 Let 1t be saio right away that t Is the funniest picture Hope has made to date, and in these times, It's something to be thankful for.
 Co-starring beautiful, gifted Paul lette Goddard, Nothing But The Truth" serves up brand of comedy that scintillates every moment 1t is on the screen. Crammed with enough gags to make at least two good comedies, the picture shoots the work in an all-out attack on gloom that has today's audiences holding Its sides.
 Briefly, the story concerns $l0,- 900 bet that Hope makes with Ed- ward Arnold and Glenn finders. his stockbroker partners, and Jeff Erickson, a playboy client, that he can tell the unvarnished truth for twenty-four hours. Truth may be stranger than fiction, but 1t wears an ear-to-ear grin when it's dealt with by Bob Hope. Before the twen- ty.fottr hours are Up, Hope has in- suited a palatial house-boat full of guests, been forced to don woEnan's from any of my snakes. The poison would cause sores in their mouths and they might die. They trust me, that's all"

 Hollywood. = Outside a stage at General Service Studios, three leashed wolves paced fretfully. In a three- -partitioned cage farther on dozed five black partners. A little man in a big western hat rounded 8 corner, scanned the studio street and asked irritably, 'Didja see that darn bear2"
 Inside, on set containing cun- ningly planned expanse Of jungle, three elephants languidly yanked off hunks of vegetation. During a few moments of silence, Fran k Puglia crawled across & clearing and plunged 8 dagger into poor John Qualen. x
 On a small set in the adjoining building an intent little group watched and filmed silent, sin- ister scene. Here was the treasure cave of Kipling's Jungle Book jeweled idol, and at its feet 6 mound of gold and human skele- ton. There were piles of pearls, too, and diamonds and rubies and emer- aids. Golden urils, jade statuettes, bojects in carved ivory. Cobwchs linked everything in antiquity. FAITHFUL OLD FELLOW
 There was movement, too. From behind the base of the great dol moved the head of king cobra an old snake grown gray in its guardian service. Slowly It's great length glided past an ivory figure, under an overturned urn, past the skull of the skeleton over a heap of gold pieces. And then, when 1t seemed there was nothing for 1t to do except move in front of the idol and bare its oIninous hood at the invading Sabu, the big cobra doubled back. apparently to investi- gate an inviting crevice under the idol.

 From the sideline moved mid- dle-aged little woman who looked and dressed and talked like a li- brarlan, or like my Aunt Margaret. Her name, though, was Grace = Grace Wiley, of Olatne, Kan.
 She went over to the big snake and put hand under his head and murmured, Poor baby. He's 50 tired"
 FOUGHT FEAR
 I knew 8 good deal about Miss Wiley, who is a scientist and not snake charmer. She had been a curator at the museum of the Uni- verslty of Kansas, which I attend ed. Then she went to the Museum of Natural History in Minneapolis. Originally an entomologist. she be- gan to study reptiles to overcome fear of them.
 She became an authority, ac- quired a remarkable collection and began lecturing at colleges and be- fore scientific groups. Since she now lives at Long Beach, Calf. some of her pets have been used il movies. The King and The Queen, her l4- and 12-foot king cobras, were hired for Trade Winds"
