POLL

Two great box-ofiice names. Rob- ert Walker and June Allyson, are offered in the gay feature The Sailor Takes a Wife" now showing at the LoeW-Poli Theater. Walker has his first role out of uniform, for in only the first scenes does he wear Navy blue. In his many successes he was a soldier or sailor, and even in Her Highness and the Bellboy' his role called for him to wear the uniform of a bellhop.
 With Walker as the sailor, and Miss Allyson as the wife. the pic ture tells the heartwarming story of the two falling in love at first sight after their meeting at a New York canteen. Thinking they have little time left. the couple are mar ried by a justice of the peace and set up housekeeping in an unlurn- ished brownstone apartment. Much to Walkers chagrin, he Is given medical discharge and finds him self looking for a job.

STRAND

Five villains add to the excite ment-and fun-of Walt Disney's full length production, "Pinocchio,' ' in Technicolor, attraction at the Strand theater.
 The evil quintet includes whale, a fox, a cat, a coachman, and a puppet master, and all of them con- centrate on making life hectic for little Pinocchio, the storys hero.
 The first of the five to make a screen appearance in "Pinocchio" Worthington Honest John" Foul fellow. and his wordless. bird- brained accomplice, "Giddy'. cat. This pair of small time villains &C., cost Pinocchio as he skips of for his first day at school, and sell him to Stromboli, an interruptions trav- cling snowman.
 Pinocchio and his conscience. :" little Jiminy Cricket. manage 10 escape from Stromboh. but Pin occhio meets slick Honest John" again and winds up sold to a coachman who collects wayward little boys, sends them to an out wardly wonderful place called Pleas ure Island, and then turns them into donkeys.
 Guarding the straits to Pleasure Island is Monstro, a vicious whale who swallows Geppetto, the old woodcarver. sponsor Of Pinocchio, as the former is on his way to res- cue the lad. Pinocchio and Jiminy manage to escape from Pleasure Island, but not before Pinocchio has donkey ears and tail. At the bot tom Of the sea he gets himself swal- lowed by Monstro, whose cast-iron digestion permits him to bolt every thing from ships to schools Of tuna without the flicker of a fin. A mass escape from Monstro's spacious in- terior accounts for the climax Of the picture an RKO Radio release.
 Although the villains outnumber kindly old Geppetto. little Pinoc- chic, and the extremely minute Jiminy Cricket, these three emerge triumphant at the end of the pie ture.
 The companion feature is West of the Pecos" and it features Robert Mitchum and Barbara Hale.

BUILDING - When asked
whether the commission con-
templates a new highway de-
partmcnt building this year,
Graham said he thought a pro-
jcct of that size ought to be
specifically authorized by the
general assembly. The kind of
building needed and that would
fit into the architectural scheme
of other state buildings will cost
around three quarters of a mil
lion dollars. The chairman
doesn't think the commission
ought to spend that much money

One lady said few days ago that
she used TO be afraid to go to bed

the gas would rise up in her throat
after she lay down and would nearly
choke her. She couldn't lie flat. Had
TO prop herself upon pillows. Re-
Gently this lady got ERB-HELP and
now says gas is gone, stomach feels
fine, bowels are regular and she can
