Hollywood There is good reason to believe that Sergeant York" will win the Academy Award as the best picture of 1941.
 Even, though the 14th annual top hat and ermine jamboree has been called off, members of the industry vii lvote as usual on a long list of pests" for the past year What with the surge of patriotic senti- ment, plus the fact York" was a fine picture by any standards as well as the years biggest money maker, it looks like the feature statuette already is in the trophy room of the Warner brothers.
 There seems to be only an out side chance that the Academy will give the Oscar to Citizen Kane" although yod might think this a logical choice since the purpose of the prize-giving is the recognition of artistic, creative achievement beneficial to the industry and heip- ful in improving the general stand ards of motion pictures.
 NOTHING NEW
 Sergeant York" is fine and stirring film, but technically it. is just another movie. So far as I can discover there is nothing new in its writing, direction, perform ance, or photography, no novel ap- preach or forceful device which has not been used for years.
 Most of the other pictures high in favor for Academy honorS, such as "The Little Foxes" and Meet John Doe" are in the same fix. I'd rather see honor bestowed on an imaginative venture such as Here Comes MT. Jordan" or From, Dick and Harry" than on a plodding, old-school production.
 For initiative and high purpose untainted by any assurance of a boX-office smash, there was "One Foot in Heaven" Unquestionably the finest picture ever made on a, religious them e, it also happily turned out to be top-notch general entertainment. It may not be much of milestone in the cinema's ar tistic prigress, but it certainly is a moral contribution to which the censor-harassed industry long will be indebted.
 There were lot of good pictures in 1941-a far higher general stand ard than in several previous years, and gratefully acknowledged by 80,- O00,0000 people at the box-offices. If the tickets they bought were to be weighed with the ballots of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Sergeant York" de- servedly would win the big award, but if the phrase "arts and sciences" means anything, Orson Welles Citizen Kane" would win.
 INFLUENCES OTHERS
 Most directors, writers and pro- ducers will admit, and already have acknowledged, that Welles' first pie ture contributed more than any thing else in years to the forceful- ness and sincerity of story telling with camera. Throughout the studios at this minute, especially on the sets of the bigger pictures, are visible evidences of technical departures which Citizen Kane" in- troduced.

This radical departure popped up when I visited the Stork Club to track down 8 few of the leading competitors for the Debbie No. title. As might be expected it's all due to the war and Sherman Bll- lingsley's belief that sheer glamour is strictly a peacetime luxury.
 Billingsley, entrepreneur of the Stork and his spokesman, Murray Lewis, were busy compiling lists of voters, candidates and program for the winner when I surprised them in the Cub Room. Tn cor ner of the room a -bevy of debs were in training-p6sing for pub licity pictures with an Ohio State football star.
 Lots of War Work
 Lewis tossed a saturnine glance at the tableau.
 That guy" he said, twas picked as the Male Animal in a poll. It's lO GSNAfCA OAoC Q AAAOtAC.
 Wherewith a striking brunette draped herself across the Male Anil malls lap and leered into a camera lens. As soon the bulb flashed she sprang up and rejoined her friends. Another debbie took her place in the college boys arms. Another picture and zip she too was gone.
 Things are going to be different this year." ayerred Lewis. "In the first place we are going to have the outstanding debutante' picked by a committee of ensigns and army lieutenants. Tn former years the job was a flash in the pan thing and not much was heard of the Queen after her choice. Now she is going to have permanent count of the five runners-up and she'll be expected to do a lot of war work.
 That's why simple glamour won't be enough. We need a girl who has a head on her shoulders, too"
 Sitting around the club were a few of the leading candidates in- cluding the red hot favorite, Ool1a O'Neill, daughter of playwright Eu- gene O'Neill. Miss O,Neill is 16, brunette and pretty, and resembles Gloria Vanderbilt who was ticketed

STRAND

Now current at the Strand theater and continuing through Friday night is one of the best double fea- ture programs seen on the screen of any local theater for some time, made up of Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn, in the delight full film Woman of the Year" and as the companion feature Barry Nelson and Larraine Day in the ac- tion packed romance "A Tank on the Burma Road"
 "Woman of the Year" sems des- tined to be the picture of the year, from all accounts and reports where it has been shown, audiences have likened 1t to Philadelphia Story" the prize-Winner of last year and if you remember it was the sensa- tional acting of Hepburn that was one of the important facts that lead to the story being selected for the award.
 In this film she does not have 1t all her own way as none have ever the fainteSt recollection of a film that Spencer Tracy has appeared in that he was not always liked and loved in.
 This film with the brilliant act ing of the co-stars, tells the story of rough and ready sports writer who lReets up with a very sophisti- cated lady reporter, they are as far removed in temperments as the North and South poles, but after whirlwind courtship, they decide to get married. When on their we'd ding night, in the supposed privacy of their own room, they encounter fugitives from justice, escaped roy alty seeking succor and other com plications, the groom is mot too overjoyed about the whole thing but the bride sees where she will be able to secure a scoop for her paper and she is gone.

 An all request program, brought back to the screen at Warmers State theater, Waterbury, by popu- lar demand. began an engagement of three days at that theater this afternoon and is hailed as enter tainnent that is tops for every one.
 { 1eadlining the popular program is the mystery thriller "The Ken- mel Murder Case" starring William Powell in the leading role.
 Powell is seen as Philo Vance, the famous and debonair detective character created by s. s. Van Dine. The debonair detective with whose brilliant exploits Van Dine has been entertaining the American mystery loving public for years, is consider ed by many of his fans, to be Powell's happiest and most popular characterization. The role of the amateur criminologist, who knows as much about roogs and Chinese porcelains as he does about crime, fits the dapper, sophisticated star as perfectly as his own immediately tailored clothes.
 According to reports Powell shows in this performance why he has be- come one of Hollywood's most pa- tronized stars.
 Philo Vance's friendly enemy, Ser- geant Heath, played by Eugene Pal- lette, who appeared in that charac- ter before with Powell, is back to snort and rib the criminal special ist as much as ever.
 An exceptional supporting cast, made up of Mary Astor, Ralph Nor gan, Helen Vinson, Jack La Rue, and Paul Cavanaugh, makes every one Of the numerous characters in "The Kennel Murder Case" doubly vivid.
 Mystery in its most baffling form, with suspense all the way, make 1t a picture that should be seen by every member of the family.
 "The Gambling Lady, the second request hit presents Barbara Stan- wyck in the title role with Pat O'Brien and Joel McCrea in sup porting roles. Gambling Lady" is a spell binding story and the excel lent cast assures audiences of fine 
 Remember, this program positive ly ends Friday evening in order to make way for the super-colossal Easter program opening Saturday at the State. Headlining the bill is "The Male Animal" with Olivia de Henry Fonda and Joan Leslie.

CThese range from covered cell ings and low-level lighting to the amazing mobility of cameras which go around through various rooms and among people exactly as ar interested visitor would do in real life. His recital of events seems documentary rather than fictional and, his characters are not individ- ual caricatureS of virtue, villainy loyalty, laziness, tenderness, and the like. Now, in month, of movie going, you'll likely find several pie lures without definite heroes or heavies, and maybe even without so-called stellar roles. Thanks to the trail-breaking of the young, upstart Welles, actors seem well on their way toward becoming real, be- lievable people.

 Another possibility Is Joan La Roche, very social and brunette Alice Graham, Gwendolyn Handy and Emma Davies, were other names mentioned as strong con- tenders. All are brunettes., Strang- ly there hasn't been a real blonde glamour girl since Lucy Saunders four years ago. No one knows why.
 Also said Lewis, there hasn't really been an outstanding queen since Brenda Frazier. Other gir.S have held the title but Brenda was far above even the next contestant.
