Sights and sounds: The picture
they said never would be made, the
life story of Capt. Eddie Ricken-
backer, ace flyer of World War /,
confounded its hecklers by coming
to life on the screen of Glendale
theater the other night for its first
preview.
Not only was it finished and ex-
posed to public view, but audiences
cheered it wildly.
Credit for this undertaking, which
goes out under the title of Captain
Eddie" for general release about
August l, must be attributed first of
all to the fine taste and care shown
in it's writing and production by
Winfield r. Sheehan, who after a
long absence comes back to the
Hollywood front as one of the towns
outstanding film makers. Direction
by Lloyd Bacon and enactment of
the title role by Fred MacMurray,
backed by a stellar cast. are also
instrumental factors in its success.

Probably no film story has ever
made such deft and cunning use OF
that old device known as the cut
back" in telling its life story. Ac-
ton starts at breakneck suspense
with Capt. Eddie and members of
his party on that tragic fight over
the Pacific Ocean, fully aware that
they must make crash landing on
the water. For tense three min
utes the audience is held in breath
less suspense while the men make
cool but hurried preparations for
their plight. Thereafter, as the men
float about on their rubber life RATS,
the story cuts back to Eddie's child
hood and on up through his adven-
turOuS career.
Sheehan began work on Captain
Eddie" three years ago. There was
one poStponement after another.
Unions threatened to boycott it be-
cause of Eddie's frank statements
to war workers upon his return from
the Pacific mission. Gary Cooper
was frightened out of the leading
role. Several directors were named.
Half dozen scripts were written
and rewritten. Finally, half way
through production, Sheehan him
self was thrown for heavy loss via
major operation. from which he
has now fully recovered.
But the picture they said never
would be made has come to life
and in a great burst of glory. Cap
tain Eddie" is one morsel you want
to jot down on your film shopping
list.

The national company, which was
dragged out of Chicago, where 1t

its current setting, already is sold

be exact, Is one of the funniest

Miss De Vriese's comedy is visual,
full of all kinds of laughable aero
battles, but don't get the notion that
she is straight clown. She is a highly
intelligent and witty human and is
as funny sitting at your table-sit-
ting perfectly still and ladylike-as
she is on the floor going through
her burlesques of every one from
Carmen Miranda to Lily Pons. May

PROSPECT FAVORS
 ANNUAL ELECTION
Biennial Plan Defeated at Town Meeting; School
 Busses Ordered

Prospects much disputed biennial election plan met with defeat last night at town meeting when 60 residents voted down the proposal in opposition to the 43 votes cast favoring the plan. The proposal was first made by means of a bill passed in the legislature this year subject to referendum vote by the townspeople.
 The proposal, as stated, had met with considerable opposition par ticularly from the Democrats of the town who labeled the bill as a trick of the dominant ajority."
 Robert Gray presided at the session which was marked by a long discussion on each proposal. More than 100 voters were present at the beginning of the meeting and scarcely more than 60 at the close.
 The voters, by margin of two votes, 32 to 30, authorized the board of education to purchase two new school buses or, if they find it practical, to sign a con- tract for improved transportation without making these purchases. It was voted, 42 to 22. to appro- priate s14,000 to buy the buses if the board decides they are a neces- SitN

Hogan also had been supported by the Labor party.
 The rejection of the local man gave all indications today of the "gangster' issue entering the con- test this fall, because of the dis trict attorneys resolved move to prosecute all criminal actions re- gardless of political affiliations. It may, even bring Gov. Dewey into the contest as 8 campaigner, it was declared.
 Hogan was first nominated by Tammany four years ago and he later won the endorsement of the New York Republican committee. He is an Independent Democrat.

 for New Term Starts Wide-Open Fight

Waterbury's Frank s. Hogan, dis trict attorney of New York who was rejected for renomination last night by Tammany Hall is expected to be nominated by the Republican party of New York some time today. MT Hogan's family resides on Cooke street, this city.
 Atty. Hogan had the support ot all parties of New York in the last election, being opposed by no-one and since taking office has attained the highest record of law enforce ment in the citys history.
 Chosen by Tammany to replace the local man was Edward J. Ennis 36, director of the alien enemy con- trol unit of the Department oi Justice, War Division. The Tam many vote was and 5-6 for Ennis and and 1-6 for Hogan. Mem bers of the executive committee bearing eight votes, were absent at the balloting
 Personal Feud
 The rejection of the local man is said to be the result of a personal feud engendered by Clarence H. Neal, T., powerful chairman of the Tammany election committee who was named by Atty. Hogan, last year, as one of the Tammany lead- CTS who was in close contact with Frank Costello, alleged slot-machine king" of New York state, in pro- noting the candidacy of Thomas A. Aurelio for justice of the New York supreme court. MT. Hogan, at the time, said that Neal had been in close touch with Costello on the nomination. Aurelio was subsequent ly elected.
 Tammany opponest of MT. Hogan declared last night the opposition was predicted upon the district at- torney's failure to personally cast his vote for the late President Roosevelt when he was a delegate to the national Democratic conven- tion last year.
