Sinatra, Kathryn Grayson, Jose
Iturbi, and the glittering cast sing,
dance and play it for you.
Anchors Aweigh" is that rare
and delightful cinema experience of
finding that the people in it are hui
man. BY making them characters
whom you will find endlesSly agree
able, it has been unnecessary for
the creators of the Palace musical
to find new situations for their
screenplay. They are telling you
nothing that you have not heard
before, but they are telling it with
more charm than any one has
shown in long time.
Even the non-Sinatra people, of
whom there must be some in the
higher age brackets, will find "the
voice" an ingratiating fellow in this,
easily his best, screen assignment.
AS for Kelly, he gets the role that
Is the finest thing that has hap
pened to him since pal Joey" made
him the most sensational young
male player of that musicals era.
Producer Pasternak has cast his
picture with inspiration from top to
bottom, has kept it simple despite
the most vivid technicolor back
ground, and has collected one of the
most listenable scores-well, since
the last Pasternak picture
Anchors Aweigh" has to do
mainly with four humble, uncom-
plex characters in whose fate you
suddenly find yourself having an
affectionate sort of interest. The
principal pair are two sailors, Kelly
and Sinatra, one shore leave as q
reward for heroic service. Kelly,
known as the "sea wolf," and Sina-
ira, an ex-choir boy who represents
innocence lifted to the last power
possible in bell-bottom trousers,
have plans for their leave but fate
has another one. 1t appears in the
shape of 5-year-old naval enthu-
siast who gets lost looking for re-
cruiting station. Once they take
him home to his Startlingly lovely
young Aunt Susan" they are
trapped in an entirely different pre-
gram than they had envisaged.
The picture is as simple as that,
but it is never hackneyed. One of
the best reasons that it is not is the
series of dances which Kelly has
devised for it and which, of course,
he dances as no one else (Astalre
fans to the contrary can dance
them. Classic and modern dance
fashions have rarely been blended
with such dramatic effect. A ballet
tap masterpiece, no less, is one in
a dream sequence in which Kelly
lnvades land of Disney-like fawns,
owls, bluebirds and other fantastic
fauna. If better cartoon sequence
has ever been woven into straight
away musical, we have missed it
and feel sure you must have done
the same. Another beguiling dance
routine is one which the outstand-
ing performer of Anchors Aweigh"
dances with a tiny girl, a routine
which blends the outstanding Latin
American techniques in an alto
aether happy fashion.
Sinatra and Miss Grayson natur-
ally dominate the vocal department
of Anchors Aweigh." In the case

The CAST.

of the former, the picture gives him
his first real chance for sympathetic
casting since the movies first began
to bid for his services. In the role
of naive sailor from Brooklyn, an
innocent abroad if ever there was
one, Sinatra turns in a truly con-
vincing performance at those times
when there is no song for him to
sing. From the standpoint of his
established public, he is at his best
when he sings such threnoic tunes as
"I Fall in Love Too Easily" and
What Makes the Sun Set"
y X
Musically, and quite wisely on
everybody's part, Miss Grayson IS
primarily associated with Pianist
Iturbi. Our guess would be that
her voice is improving and that she
deserves to be bracketed with the
piano artist who has become not
HlcIcly UIl6 VI lflc IIOSU WuIllilS
players on Metros list, but also its
handiest story device. Iturbi again
plays a character named Jose Iturbi
and adds to his stature not merely
by virtue of that but by his excel
lent conducting of Metros SYM
phony. His most winning job in
Anchors Aweigh" is that he does
in the climactic sequence in which
he leads the orchestra in its &C
compartment of Miss G.'s THE
Charm of You"
The Palaces picture is happy also
for its introduction of one of the
brightest moppets of the season, an
gelic-looking male child with an
impish disposition by the name of
Dean Stockwell
He is a distinct asset to Anchors
Aweigh' which, we repeat, is full
of assets

 Mccain, an expert in carrier war fare who knows the Japanese very thoroughly, explained in an inter- view that the Japanese probably "are conserving and waiting for a more propitious time" before they strike back.
 Dirty weather, through which U. s. pilots have been flying, has been another factor favoring strikes by this great naval force, now swelled by British men-of-war.

GABRIEL50N SEES
 ALA5KA BENEFITS
 IN CONGRESS TRIP
Feels Legislators Favor ably Impressed with
 Alaska Needs

pr. Ira Gabrielson, National Fish and Wildlife Service Director, who was host aboard the F&WL flagship Brant to five members of the House Appropriations Interior Department Subcommittee now making an Alaska investigation, on their trip from Seattle to Juneau, stated here Saturday that he is confident the Congressional tour will result in benefits to Alaska.
 pr. Gabrielson and Alaska F&WL Director Frank w. Hynes escorted the Congressional group to Glacier Bay aboard the Brant on Sunday. pr. Gabrielson and MT. Hynes were to continue on aboard the Brant to Prince William Sound and Kodiak for the remainder of the salmon season there, the Congressmen re- turning to Juneau today aboard an- other vessel, via Hoonah.
 From Kodiak, Dr. Gabrielson will return to Southeast Alaska, remain ing here until the close of fishing in this area.
 Dr. Gabrielson commented on rep resentations made to the Congress men at Ketchikan concerning the need for increased Federal appro- priations for salmon conservation measures, particularly for work on spawning areas. Enroute to Juneau, the Congressmen viewed some streams where much can be done to improve spawning areas. They were generally impressed with the need for improvements, he thought.
 The Appropriation group also re- acted favorably, in Dr. Gabrielson's opinion to work being done at the Fisheries Experiment Laboratory at Ketchikan and the Experimental Fur Station at Petersburg. Appro- priations requests for increasing both those establishments are now before Congress.
 In addition, the Congressmen were given a taste of trout fishing near Ketchikan and a look at a floating salmon trap in operation, which was novel sight to them
 Dr. Gabrielson expressed regret at the resignation from the Fish and Wndlife Service of his Assistant Dir ector Charles E. Jackson. The new post MT. Jackson has taken as man. ager of the National Fisheries Insti- ute, is however, very attractive one, with great possibilities, the Dir ector said
 The National Fisheries Institute is an organization formed by commer- cial fishery firms along the Atlantic and Gulf seaboardS and the Great Lakes. Its intent is nation wide in scope, but so far it has not been joined by Pacific Coast fish produc- CTS, he declared.
 The two main objectives of the h. stitute are to promote demand for all fish products, advertising nation ally the qualities of all ocean var ieties; also to secure legislation ad- vantageous to firms and individuals ill the fish business.
 MT. Jackson is well qualified to direct the Institutes activities, Dr. Gabrielson declared.
