Michigan, Fox
Vie With Mysteries
BY CHARLES GENTRY

It looks like the Fox and Michi-
gan are out 10 out-shudder one
another with their new features,
beginning Friday, while the other
first-runs take movie matters a
little more lightly.
The screams on the screen al
the Michigan can all be accounted
for because this theater is finally
showing us the film version OF
arsenic and Old Lace" the
Broadway success which has had
theater goers suspended between
bowls and hysterical laughter for
otter fettr- years.
Even if you did see IL on the
stage, however, well wager that
you get a kick out of this movie
version, which has Cary Grant as
the dramatic critic and nephew
of a demented domicile which
houses two sweet old maid auntS
with Borgia tendencies and a
homicidal maniac of brother.
The Fox picture, Laura" has
been discussed in general, but
surrounded with an aura of rather
sinister secrecy, in particular.
All we know about II, is that
il is the latest Alfred Hitchcock
thriller and that is as subtle a
piece of horror as he's directed in
sometime.
Also we know that Gene Tier
ney, who has finally returned 10
the screen, following a consider
able absence. and Dana Andrews
have the principal romantic roles,
10 take the curse off the terror.
II marks, as we'll the screen

debut of that gifted and caustic-
tongued actor, Clifton Webb, who
has finally made up his mind 10
appear in celluloid.
Not SO long ago, Webb was
signed for a picture contract by
a major studio. which let him sit
on his swimming pool without
even seeing a Brownie box camera
for over a year.
The other openings for the
week will be listed in these
columns in Thursdays paper.

STILL IN A MIDDLE

Whether or not there is a re%ula-
ton which requires maple syrup pro-
ducers to purchase a $500 license
fee through the State Forestry de
partment, still keeps the producers
here in a middle.
Senator Bernard l. Condor. member
of the Board of State Forests and
Parks. declared this morning that
the regulations being formulated by
the department as Il result of the
passage of the Forest Conservancy
Act, had not been passed ON by the
Board, and that it was not the intent
of the Board to have any such license
fee apply to maple syrup producers.
There was some talk recently of
having some restrictions placed upon
those dealers who came here from
other states to purchase the syrup in
large quantities at q low price, in
order to protect the producers, he
said

had received from some member of
