outstanding picture of its program
with completely admirable discre-
tion.
AS we said, no one could make a
more engaging person of Laura
than does Miss Mcclure. There is
no mere resignation in her gentle
ness. 1t has always about it rare
wisdom, which not many young ac-
tresses in Hollywood can even begin
to initiate. 1t is she who takes the
great burden of proving the elu-
sive point of the picture and she
makes it entirely plausible that she
could become beautiful to Young
and he handsome to her, simply
through the eyes of love.
Next most affecting of the per-
formance in Keith'S feature is that
of Mildred Natwick, the touchingly
lonely woman who owns the en-
chanted cottage. 1t Is altogether
right, as is that of Marshall as the
blind pianist.
AS off-setting comedy characters
Spring Byington as the futtery
dumb mother of the shattered flyer
and Richard Gaines as her haught-
lily ignorant husband are also worthy
OF the closest attention.
John Cromwells direction shows
not merely understanding of the
delicate tale, but also disposes of
It's subtleties as easily as you please.

By PATRICIA SIMMONS.

Helmut Dantine came all the way
from Hollywood to show of his
talents this week at the Earle, both
on stage and on screen. He did so
to the squealing response of hum
dreds of women who clutched f1ow-
ers in their hands as they watched
Mr.. Dantine demonstrate Holly
woods brand of love making to
Andrea King.
This was the customers reward
for sitting through a rather tiring
hour of melodramatic hide and seek
with the Nazis entitled Escape in
the Desert This, plus a rose or
carnation 1--WE had our choice and
precious bit of paper bearing Mr..
Dantine's autograph. Personally,
we found it easier to admire Mr..
Dantine impersonate the Nazi.
Actually, a somewhat unhappy
attempt at a remake of Robert
SherWood's "Petrifled Forest" "Es-
cape in the Desert" takes one back
to the good old serial thrills of the
hard-hitting, fast-shooting am
bush days. Take that scene where
Philip Dorm throws himself into a
speeding car of Nazis and slugs it
out until the vehicle overturns in
burst of flame. You almost expect
to be told to come back next week
for chapter to find out what hap
pens to Mr.. Dorm.
Director Edward Blatt was evil
IDENTIFY satisfied to populate his
"Petrified Forest" with Nazis in
stead of gangsters. Otherwise the
desert locale and plot vary little
from the original. Soft-spoken
Philip Dorm becomes the desert
wanderer, this time, a Hollander
seeing America before, heading for
action in the Pacific. Into the lonely
desert inn, made somewhat less
lonely by one Jean Sullivan, a nice
white-haired grandfather and little
l0-year-old Danny, come the
Dutchman and four escaped NaZi
prisoners of war. From here on it's
mostly a patchwork of propaganda
and forced melodrama.
Arriving little later to join the
chummy group, dentist and his
talkative wife (Alan Hale and Irene
Manning) make several labored at
tempts at adding a touch of humor
Miss Manning is supposed to be
funny when she asks for a ham
burger because she gets hungry
when frightened A little later. Alan
Hale looks at a Nazi with tooth
aache and mutters "uh huh, you
haven't been seeing your dentist
twice year.
Some slight interest. naturally
develops in the efforts Of the various
persons imprisoned at the inn to
get word to the outside of the
whereabouts of the Nazis. However
no sooner do you think they're get
ting somewhere than Mr. Dorm stops
dead to make pretty speech about
Nazi trickery. as if you couldn't tell

and Herbert Marshall The picture,
which opened yesterday at Keith's
Theater, is as timely as today. That,
together with its changelessly pow
erful impact, should keep it there
until every one has had a chance to
see it.
There are numerous exceptional
values in the current version of Sir
Arthur's touching, inspiring story of
the power of love to transform those
who experience it. A particularly
accented one is that it deals with
the question of deforming injuries
growing out of the war, one which
may overlook the miracles of mod
ern plastic surgery, but is no less
dramatic for that oversight. An
other is the performance of Miss
Mcclure. AS the ugly duckling
who became beautiful and who made
her war-shattered husband the
same through the simple process of
loving him and being lovable, she
gives performance of complete
enchantment. 1t could easily win
for Miss Mcclure an academy
award, or at least make every other
candidate Tor that honor uncom-
Portable until the last vote is
counted.

A deep feeling for the timeliness
of The Enchanted Cottage" is evil
dent on the part of every one asso-
ciated with the new attraction at
Keith's. Together they have pulled
it back from the original realm of
fantasy to make it applicable to
the realities of today. At the same
time, they have accomplished the
impressive end of retaining all its
heart-warming qualities, its hui
manity, its humor, its pathos, and
its gentle understanding. The theme
of the picture is somber, but it is
far from sad in the effects it Gre
ates upon the spectator. He should
be the braver and the happier for
having seen it.

Bernadette' Back
At the Capitol;
Miller HOnOred

THE Song of Bernadette," which
earned Jenifer Jones the Academy
Award for her performance in the
title role, and which earned goth
Century-Fox the unstinted admira-
ton of millions when it was released
last season, yesterday became the
attraction at the Capitol Theater
Its re-showing here at this time
marks its release for the first time
at popular prices. In the light of the
previous critical enthusiasm it
evoked everywhere, it seems un-
necessary to say more now than that
those who missed it, should avoid
that error on this occasion Those
who saw it before might profitably
see it a second time, in all truth.
The Capitol's lively stage show
this week pays proper tribute to
Glenn Miller. band leader, who has
been missing for many months as
result OF an airplane crash at sea.
Miller. who joined the Navy shortly
after the outbreak of the war, is hon
ored especially on the current Capitol
program by the presence of the Mod
ernaires, former members of his
musical group. The male quartet,
with Paula Kelly, offer a medley
composed of Lullaby of Broadway,
I've Said 1t Again" "Juke Box Sat
urday Night" and a carricature of
the well known Ink Spots. The Cap
itol's orchestra. under Sam Jack

Miller with a medley OF tunes he
made famous.

The point it makes so effectively is
that beauty is in the eye of the be-
holder and that the eye needs mere
ly to look with love upon any OBJ
ject to make it beautiful.
Nothing could be told in more
simple terms. There is a girl named
Laura Pennington (Miss McGuire)
She is the essence of drabness in ap-
pearance. Her hair is straight, al
most unkempt looking. Her mouth
is wide, her eyes dull, and ugliness
seems to have descended upon her in
its most complete and hopeless form
The first intimation that she is as
inwardly beautiful as she is out
wardly hideous is in her relation
with a young, once dashing young
war flyer Young), who returns to
the enchanted cottage to hide away
from the world as a physical ruin
She works there as servant, a
completely alien type to the pretty
patricianS who once comprised his
set.
The story, after their meeting, is
one of the dissolution of his bitter
ness and his falling in love with her
as he grows aware of the fact that
she has found beauty in life that
has nothing whatever to do with a
handsome set of features. Or their
complete absence.
X X
The original hero Of "The En-
chanted Cottage" the blind man, is
merely supplemental character in
this account. He, the blind pianist
played by Herbert Marshall, has
found that life has an inner beauty
that the naked eye cannot see. He is
an important asset to Laura in the
slow, painful re-education of the
new hero. He fits ideally into the
atmosphere of the enchanted cot
tage whose particular enchantmenl
lies in the fact that all those who
come there must succumb to aware
ness that love makes everything
beautiful.

One councilman and one can didate for the school board were added to the list of candidates this week for the city election April 8.

 Already filed are: o. A. Tor gerson, for mayor; Merrill Coon, Stanley Nelson, Walter Muller, Charles Kettle, Lee Bettinger, Lawrence Wodlinger, A. A. Sum- erlin and Charles Madsen, for councilmen; and Nellie Melin, for treasurer
 Charles Kettle said this week that it appeared the Hatch act, forbidding civilian employees of the government to run for pol itical office, would prevent his taking part in the campaign, and would probably apply to Walter Muller also. However, up to late yesterday no withdrawals had been filed.
 Would be candidates have only until midnight, next Mon- day, March l9, to signify their intention to run. At least one other petition was being circul- ated yesterday and more filings are expected Monday.
