when the crack of Q revenue agents rifle rents the stfl mountain air, the picture builds in suspense and power, without relaxing its pace, un- til the dramatic climax.

| NEA Service Stan Correspondent
 Hollywood - writer Sues for 9l60,0eO." Studio Denies Story Pi- racy." Claims Plot Stolen, Asks Million" Plagiarism Trial Be- gins."
 Those are small, local headlines of the past few days. Plagiarism suits aren't news in Hollywood ex- cept in some of the more fantas- tic instances. Every studio main- tains a legal department with a generous budget, and whenever Q movie promises to make a lot of money, the boys who toll between the shelves of statutes and torts begin collecting data and affidavits in anticipation of @ flock of nui- sance suits.
 Of course there are Q lot of people who dash Into court with honest beliefs that thier brain- children have been abducted by the movies, but the records show clearly that 8 big majority of cases are attempts to shake down stu. dioS for out-of-court settlements, SHEETS OFF GLORY ROAD
 Clearest example of such monkey business came out of the suit against 20th-Fox by a Robert H. Sheets, who claimed authorship of the yarn used to make Road to Glory" A federal court found that Sheets had not submitted Q manuscript to the studio six months before re- lease, as claimed; in fact, his story had been copied from a synopsis of the picture after 1t had been pub- ltshed in fan magazine.
 Never, until the other day, had writer charged that several stu- dios and individuals had stolen his story. Now John Igual de Montijo has filed for damages totaling more than $6O0o,0 for the misuse of his claimed original story called Viva Madero." He alleges that Paramount and Cecil DeMille made 1t the basis of North West Mounted Police': that Ernest Hemingway used 1t for For Whom the Bell Tolls":
 that 20th-Fox adapted it for Viva Cisco Kid" and "The Cisco Kid and the Lady,; also that a few Mexican film companies swiped 1t for their pictures. And, walls de Montijo, he never re- ceived a centavo from any of them.
 The only plot-stealing cases that cause the studios serious embar- rassment are those involving ma terial mistakenly believed to have been in the public domain. One of the best instances was when Edward Sheldon and Margaret

Barnes won Q judgment for $602,- 437 from M.G-M and its parent, Loews, Inc. The writers said that Metro had used their play, Dis honored Lady" in the movie called "Letty Lynton." The studio countered that both play and movie were based on facts avail able to anybody-an 80-year-old poisoning case in Scotland - but apparently M-G-M hadn't done a very good job of researching. The picture used some things which had been invented in the writing of the play.
 GRANDDADDY OF 'EM ALL
 Veteran of all plagiarism cases, though, was Grace Tenders con- tention that "The Bird of Paradise was pirated from her work, "1n Hawaii" It went on for 20 years, with court of appeals finally set- ting aside @ $7s0,000 verdict for the plaintiff.
 Stars often are named in pla- giarism suits. Ginger Rogers and David Niven were made CO., defendants with RKO when a writer clamied he owned the plot of Bachelor Mother" A couple of months ago Olympe Bradna and Paramount were sued by a writer who said he gave her a manuscript to read, and charged the story was pirated for the oic- ture, Night of Nights"

STATE

Tn a motion picture comedy so un- usual, SO fascinating and SO delight- fully different that the entire mo- tion picture industry gains in stat ure, Robert Montgomery today brought to Warmers State theater audiences an entirely new concep- tion of joyous screen entertainment.
 His new amusing comedy, "Here Comes MT. Jordan" even as 1t defies every law of filming, is the most surprising screen accomplishment of the year, combining laughter and thrills in gay abundance, and telling its unroariously mirthful story against 8 background of deep emo tional value.
 A magnificent cast, contributing magnificent performances, brings to the screen story that sWill be told and retold for years to come. MT. Montgomery, in the major role, that of a guy named Joe who has sense of humor and a saxophone he doesn't play as well as he thinks he does, offers a performance which can only be called extraordinary, so clear and sharp and enjoyable is his work. AS the MT. Jordan" of the title, Claude Rains merits the adjective perfect" so kindly, so understanding, SO real does he appear
 Lovely Evelyn Reyes, proving her right to the stardom which is the reward for excelelnt performances, Is of equal moment in the leading feminine role, and Rita Johnson abandons her ingenue parts to con- tribute to Here Comes Mir. Jordan, a character portrayal of outstanding merit.
 James Gleason and Edward Ever ett Horton, decidedly different, but definitely delightful comedy char acterizations, are other members of the stellar cast. MT. Gleason, in particular must be singled out for applause.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents new type gangster thriller, bullets for O'Hara" with Joan Perry and Roger Pryor.

BEGIN TEST DRILL TO
PLACE DAM SITE

Custer, Mont, March IL The
work of core drilling to test a
site for a proposed big irrig-
alton dam on the Marias river
near here was under way TODAY.
The site was selected early
last year by a surveying crew
and equipment used in making
tests was moved there in mid
February. It was expected the
drilling would be completed by
about the middle of April.
Government engineers were
studying results of the tests.
from which a final analysis of
the footings for the foundation
of the dam were to be made.
Test holes at higher levels of
the site were about 265 feet
deep.
The site of the proposed dam
is some distance from the Mar
las from where it is Joined bv
willow Creek. The dam would
make water available for irri-
cation of a large tract of bench
land in the Chester district and
would supply water for areas in
Hill and Choteau counties fur
ther east.
First tests, along the river
bottom, showed no signs of
quicksand or breaks in bedrock,
