FILM "pE0pLE ARE

 AT 10TH CENTURY

Some big names are coming to the 20th Century Christmas Day when Paramount releases its lates: Pine-Thomas production, People Are Funny" based on the NEG show of the same name
 For one thing, there's Frances Langford, that lovely lady of the soothing contralto who has probab- ly sung to more GIs overseas than any other actress. The picture also headlines Rudy Vallee, another top radio personality who, by the way, chalked up two years service with the Coast Guard. Handsome Philip Reed, honorably discharged from the Navy, romances Helen Walker ingratiating charmer with a nice crisp demeanor and considerable acting ability.
 In addition to all this talent there's that much-beloved comed- ian, Jack Haley, reputedly funnier than ever before in a role that also calls for singing and stepping to gay new Mexican tune, Hey Jose" music and lyrics by Pope and Tito Guizar. Bandleader Ozzie Nelson is back in films playing his first dramatic part. That San Francisco quartet, The Vaga- bonds" do three tuneful numbers and, if grapevine predictions are correct, Bob Graham, newest bobby sox sensation, is one young man croon fans will delight in seeing as well as hearing.
 The picture revolves around NBC's popular People Are Funny audience participation program and reports indicate that Art Linkletter ad-libber with laugh-lightning re- partee emceeS some of the most hilarious stunts ever -concocted.

"DAk0TA" COMING CHRISTMAS DAY AS
 CApIT0L'S FEATURE

Certain American localities, and among them the Dakotas, seem to lerd themselves to colorful dramat- ic sequences, in recounting early American history in the pioneering days of the great West.
 Dakota" which is the Christmas Day feature at the Capitol, is one more superb example. With the aid of photographs, research and actual wheatfield scenes filmed in Minnesota and Montana, Republic has brought to the screen an- other Western saga which will long live as tribute to the author, Carl Foreman. In this fine film, Repub- lie has re-captured the character of the West in 1871 with nostalgia charm.
 The cast is all that could be de- sired: starring John Wayne with Vera Hruba Ralston and Walter Brennan. Featured are Ward Bond, Grant Withers, Mike Mag urki, Hugo Haas, Ona Munson and Paul Fix.
 In 1871, MT. and Mrs. John Dev- lin, newly married couple from Chicago, (John Wayne and Vera Hruba Ralston) elope to invade Da- kota, where success looks promising Every incident proves an exciting adventure and the young husband wages a war against a ruthless gang of crooks, who try to burn out the wheat farmers, drive them out of the country and blame the raids on the Indians.
 This is spectacular, Western drama, packed with action from be- ginning to end, climaxed by the numerous rought, tough struggles that hold audience interest.
