STATE

Capacity attendance at Warmers State theater yesterday marked the opening performances of Humphrey Bogarts biggest hit Passage to Marseille" which also boasts Q ga- laxy of big name stars in support of Bogart.
 The new hit is chock :uil of ac- ton and is a story of a small group of men who risked their lives to join the French fight against Fa- scism.
 Bogart is presented as Matrac, an anti.Nazi who has been banished to Devils Island on trumped-up charg- es and the picture tells of his dar- ing escape from the Island with four other convicts and the peril they encounter in their attempt to get back to France.
 When they are picked up, more dead than alive, in mid-ocean by a small freighter bound for Marseille they utter silent thanks that their trials have ended-but in fact they have just begun. Halfway to Mar Seille word comes that France has capitulated. This provokes a crisis on board parallel to the bigger one in Paris when issues were raised between collaborationists and anti NaziS. Bogart and his four fellow

The kids of Tarawa, on Quadalcanal, in Africa and in Italy are creating the film stars of today. Servicemen who see motion pictures months before their commercial release, are flood ing the studios with fan and pan mail-and executives are listening to these amateur critics. Sample case: First seen by fighting men in the now current "Dr. Gillespie's Criminal Case" blond Marilyn Max well set off a barrage of applaud ing fan letters. Studio executives, impressed, have handed her the leading feminine role opposite Van Johnson in new Metro film, Three Men in White

ROME STORAGE
FIRMS PUT IT
OVER ON NAzI5

ROME The ability of Arthur
Bolliger and his sons Rudy and
Arthur, Jr., to avoid Gestapo traps
and do favors for their American
and British friends was one of the
diverting aspects Of Roman life I'M
der the Nazis.
They caught some of the German
agents in misdeeds that insured their
silence, aided the Jews and saved
enormous property for hundreds of
clients who represented countries at
war with the Axis.
The Bolligers operate a string of
warehouses. One of the favorite
Nazi charges was that they oper-
ated secret warehouses. The ware
houses weren't secret but they were
well placed. When Allied bombs
began to fall on the outlying dis
tricts, the Bolligers moved their
priceless treasures to two special
warehouses-one practically adjoin-
ing the Vatican, the other-in a
monastery.
Correspondents in Rome had to
leave hurriedly when II Duce went
