Magic Is Tops
AT Capitol
This Week
By PATRICIA SIMMONS,

There are more beautiful women
at the Capitol. this week, than you
can shake a stick at. And that's eX-
actly what happens. Only the stick
is magic wand and the gentleman
on the stage, who does the shaking
magician by the name of John
Calvert.
Mr.. Calvert does especially well
for himself in the matter of props.
Girls, girls, girls, everywhere one
looks. Lovely ladies in blue capes, in
pretty pink dresses, and mind you
even in mere treSses. Since that is
the Lady Godiva trick it's all right,
of course. Astride her painted hobby
horse, propelled by Mr.. Calvert's
magic, plus the benefit of electric
current, the historical miss cantered
into midair, in fact, right out over the
heads of the orchestra members.
In yesterday mornings show there
was little difficulty with the elec-
trlclty, that is the horse became a
little ornery. So while electricians
coaXed the animal back stage. Mr..
Calvert carried on by hypnotising
three small boy volunteers from the
audience. BY the time the horse got
ready to perform, no one was inter-
ested any more. That is, the kids did
both horse and rider one better.
II you don't believe us, wait until
you see Mr.. Calvert's finale. The
kiddies took over again, and for a
minute there it looked as if the
management might have to call in
the riot squad. Having proper
ly hypnotised an accommodating
youngster Mr.. Calvert proceeded 10
partake Of potion of magic green
extract which turned him into a
mad surgeon intent upon the mur-
der OF his newly acquired assistant.
The deed once accomplished with
knife and buzz saw, Mr.. Calvert
descended into the audience in
search of new victims, still carry
ing the severed mead in one hand.
Ugh! Children eft their seats and
began running all over the place,
Mr.. Calvert after them. The
prospect wasn't as grueSome as it
sounds, however. Those who ven-
tured on stage were met with those
six beautiful girls-this time dressed
as nurses.
I'm case you're worried about TAX
ing the kiddies, Mr. Calvert had
the professional foresight to in
clude a few cigarette and handker-
chief tricks, makes lady or two
disappear and, Of course, pulls the
rabbit out of the hat: we'll, any
way, out Of a box. Frankly, the
gentleman keeps you so busy watch
ing YOU won't have time to ex-
change even the snatches of a con-
versation with your neighbor.
On screen, this week, looking a
little thinner than you've grown
accustomed to see him is Clark Ga
BILE. You're apt to be a little sur
prised also at finding Loretta Young
stripped of her familiar feminine
frills and glamour bob, delivering
most of her lines in pair of baggy
long trousers and prospector's
checkered shirt. That is until you
recognize some of the fiamboyant
dialogue and panorama of the fro
zen North.
Chances are you saw Call Of the
Wild" the Jack London thriller,
when it was first released. It's
still a good sugar-coated dose of
adventure even after 10 years,
thanks to Mr.. Gable, Miss Young
and other people in the cast who
do a good job, such as Jack Oakie,
REGINALD Owen and Sidney Toler
And we mustn't forget Buck. He's
the ST. Bernard who steals the
show.

ganized resistance In the Philip
pines to unite the natives into a re-
sistance movement that will harass
the Japs until Gen. Macarthur can
keep his promise.
1t is an assignment that involves
both high degree of danger and a
large element of the impossible.
The Filipinos are exhausted with
war, have a right to question Ameri-
can leadership and are the victims
of an adroit Japanese propaganda.
But they do unite and they do fight
back. And, in spite of the des-
perate odds, they achieve enough
sporadic victories In the harrass-
ment of the enemy to encourage
continuance of their campaign.
Guerrilla warfare is not new as a
dramatic spectacle. 1t has been
one of Hollywood's favorite sub
jects for the past three years. In
Back to Bataan," however, RKO
has been clever enough to tie it
in with some of the factual record.
The names of those involved are
familiar and the incident is some
thing of which you have heard. The
photography of the march Of
death, the most infamous of jap
anese infamies in the islands, is the
actual thing to certain extent.
The fictional elements are adroitly
interviewer. 1t looks real. So does
the long sequence which produces
the rescue of the inmates of Caban-
atuan.
These are greatly to the advan-
tage of the pictures realism, it's
documentary flavor.
So is the fact that most OF the
faces in it are those of natives. The
exceptions are those of Wayne,
Anthony Quinn and Beulah Bondi.
Quinn's role Is that of a Filipino
captain, a. rugged warrior In the
harsh going which leads to the fall
of the islands citadels, who is re-
duced to indifference and apathy
by the conviction that his fiance has
gone over to the enemy. The role,
that of a Filipino beauty, is pat
termed after the real life one of
Tokyo Rose, with the qualification
that actually the girl is identified
with the counter espionage move
ment. A deal of time is taken up
with this element of the plot and
it could easily be that much of it
is wasted, that it robS the screen
drama of its quality of realism.
Another dubious element in the
plot structure provided by Authors
Ben BarZman and Richard Landau
is to be found near the climax of
Back to Bataan." That is the
gathering of the natives on the
beach at Leyte, a huge group whose
presence there must certainly have
tipped off the Japanese as to the
final meaning of the resistance on
the island.
Generally, however, the Keith
picture avoids these pitfalls. looks
like a reasonably unretouched pho
tograph of the quiet, deadly jungle
warfare the Filipinos waged in the
faith that they were not deserted
and that Gen. Macarthur would
keep his word to turn disastrous
defeat into ultimate victory.
