POLl'S

Opening today at the Loew-Poli theater is the swift-paced exciting drama Blood on the Sun" It is one of the few stories laid in Japan that has come out of Hollywood since the war began. Produced by William Cagney, the film co-stars dynamic Jimmy Cagney and the lovely Sylvia Sidney, who makes a triumphant re- turn to the screen after a protracted absence.
 Blood on the Sun" pictures Japan as it was in the late twenties, long before Pearl Harbor, and, accord ing to the producer, should serve as sharp reminder to American citizens never to allow Japanese rnilitarists to gain control of Nip- pon again.
 James plays a hard-hitting Amer ican newspaper editor in Tokyo who learns of the Tanaka Memorial and determines to divulge its startling contents to the world. He succeeds in this objective after a series of air-breadth escapes that make for one of the most exciting films of James career. However, the pie ture is more than a slambang story of action and heroics. It provides serious and documented portrait of the Japanese leaders in infamy including Tojo; Admiral Yamamoto who promised to dictate peace terms in the White House.; Mitsuru Toyama, head of the notorious Black Dragon society, and Baron Giichi Tanaka,. author of the Me- morial
 Lovely Sylvia Sidney returns to the screen as the EuraSian beauty who moves in the highest social circles, and naturally has an elab- crate wardrobe. She is more slen- der than she used to be and looks gorgeous in the new clothes. The Cagneys have her under personal contact and already have had a couple of offers for her services, word having apparently gotten around that Sylvia really can be beauty, which producers apparently never recognized before.
 Playing important supporting roles in the film are John Emery, Wallace Ford, Rosemary De Camp and Porter Hall.
 Plus second big hit on the same program, the hilarious new musical comedy "Hitchhike to Happiness" with Al Pearce in the starring role, and featuring Brad Taylor and Dale Evans in the romantic leads. It is the rollicking, uproarious story of an ordinary guy who suddenly finds himself on top of the world.

twin daughters of divorced parents: he, a happy-go-lucky newspaper man (played by Preston Foster) i; she a career woman and authority on child psychology and education. His daughter is, in modern slang, a slick chick, uninhibited and full of joy of living. Mothers daughter, however, has been brought up along far different lines, and is a sedate, beSpectacled shiz kid.
 Hilarity gets under way when the two, meeting for the first time in a long while, decide to change places and, perhaps, to bring their nom and dad together again. Not only are the latter not able to distin- guish between them, but even the girls boy friends are completely fooled = at least for awhile.
 The twins are cute and cuddly and reveal themselves as adept comediennes. Foster and Miss Pat rick, as the parents, both are ex- cellent. Marshall Thompson and Jimmy bydon are the boy friends and the cast includes also Richard Gaines, Jean Porter and Gloria Hope. Arthur L.

Lurie revealed that the much discussed woman in red" who pointed out the gangster to FBI agents as he left a Chicago North Side motion picture theater, July g, 1884, was not Evelyn Frechette, as supposed. An obscure. figure, Anna Sage, put the finger on Dil- finger shortly before he fell to the street, riddled by bullets, he said.
 Anna Sage was an Austrian in danger of deportation because she was implicated in the operation of a shady house in Chicago. In an effort to make deal with FBI agents she offered to divulge Dil- fingers whereabouts.
 The woman went to a show with the gangster and she sat through the picture knowing that when they left the FBI would be waiting.
 The agents called e command to the gangster when he reached the street and when he reached in his pocket they opened fire. In his possession when he died was a dol- lar watch and $7.20.
 Finger Woman Deported
 Anna Sage, the woman at whose home he sought refuge while un- dergoing plastic surgery, never re- alized anything from her end of the deal. Shortly thereafter she was deported to Austria by immigration officials and was last heard of in 1stanbul, fleeing from the NaziS.
 Lurie contacted officials in the Dillinger case and many of the gangsteris former associates. He revealed how thorough the gang leader was in planning his crimes.
 The gang would case bank for week, keeping exact hour-by- -hour count of the number of people go- ing in and coming out. Even more detail was employed in planning the getaway.
 Maps of the escape route were drawn with such instructions as: drive north on 6S, get up to 60 miles an hour; drop to 30, turn right. Drive two and one-quarter miles east at 85 miles an hour, drop to 15 miles an hour, turn left into country road"
 Lurie said Dillinger had a habit of saying, There goes deuce and double-deuce again." whenever luck turned against him. He said mind reader once told the gangster to beware of the number 2.
 In the waning days of his life Of crime the dragnet closed around him thus: On Jan. 9, 1884, he had to shoot 1t out with state officers at Tucson, Ariz. On April 9, 1884, he was nearly caught at Merce, Wis, and finally he was shot to death on July 9.

Hollywood.-Joan Blondell said it was confusing having lone leg in front of the camera and one leg in front of the stove."
 At the moment. however, one Blondell leg (and very shapely, tool was in manicurist,s lap in the Blondell dressing room at M-G-M. The Blondell toenails were getting a trim and a bright red paint job.

 The Blondell dressing room, on the site of This Strange Adven- ture," looked like something out ol a Marx Brothers picture. Joan, the manicurist, a hairdresser, a gal who coached her singing for the stage show, 'The Naked Ge- nius," maid pouring tea, John son and Clark Gables arm were crowded into by 10-foot room.
 The Gable arm reached in for a cup of tea but the rest of him wisely remained outside. If his ears had come in, no one would have been able to move.
 T had a better dressing room than this" Joan said, "even before I got into pictures"

 But, she said, if we thought her dressing room life was hectic, we should see Blondell at home.
 She had fired the cook and the gal didn't come for the washing. Son Norman, age Il, had invited the Cub Scouts over to inaugurate Joan as a Den Mother. Daughter Ellen, age T, was making perfume out of rose petals, usng all the pots and pans in the kitchen.
