LiIIi Palmer In State Film
European Actress
 In Americon Debut

Gary Cooper fans have the op- portunity of seeing their favorite star in a role radically different from any of his recent character izations in Warner Brothers Cloak and Dagger" now showing at the State Theater. Cooper appears as mild-mannered, small town east ern university professor who finds himself suddenly pitted against dangerous adversaries and almost overnight he drops his quiet life and becomes a man of quick ex- citing action. Lill Palmer, famous European actress, makes her Amer ican debut in the film which also stars Robert Aida. The second hit on the current program features Leslie Brooks, Robert Stanton and host of Columbia pictures young stars in the musical review, Its Great To Be Young"
 Next Wednesday, the State pre- sents one of the foremost motion pictures to come out of Hollywood in recent years. It is Paramount's s "The Searching Wind" which was produced by Hal Wallis and adapted from the stage hit of Lillian He'll mazi, Pulitzer Prize Winner for Watch On the Rhine" and author of the famous The Little Foxes" and '"The Children's Hour" It CO., stars Robert Young, Sylvia Sidney and Ann Richards in an adult love story set against the intriguing in- ternational background of the worlds capitals, and it captures the spirit of troubled times as 1t car ries the principals from one coun- try to another. Young portrays an American diplomat in love with Miss Sidney but married to social ite Miss Richards. Their personal lives become involved with now his toric world affairs. How the three resolve their private problem and how it is affected by world events, makes The Searching Wind" an exceptionally thought provoking film. Dudley Digges repeats the | TOle ne playeQ III LIle OI1SlIldl SldSC play and Douglas Dick, new Hal Wallis find portrays the wounded soldier son of Young and Miss Richards. Captured Italian and German newsreels and propaganda pictures are cleverly used by Direc- tor William Dieterle to furnish an authentic background for num- Der of historic events which pre- ceded World War II, and which have an important part in the weaving of the plot of this film.
 On the lighter side, the co-hit features young comedian Fred Brady, comedy Sheila Ryan and a sensational new songstress, Paula Drew, in Universals sprightly mu- sical comedy Slightly Scandalous :" It's a gay comedy, studded with lilt- ing tunes, and uses big time radio broadcasting as a background to introduce the big musical produc- tion sequences.

i film personalities today's rehabilita- ton problem in the matter of three typical Marine heroes. Madison, re- turning home after his discharge, finds too much experience has elapsed since he left, and his grow ing unhappiness and insecurity threatens to engulf him in disaster. He can neither settle down, nor pursue his own interests. His emo- tional problems are aggravated by his well-meaning but non-under- standing parents. who immediately try to bounce him back into a civil ian way of thinking. Not only is he indifferent to- their activities, but he is incapable of meeting their standards of normalcy,l and the ensuing conflict has far reaching results.
 Meeting up with a lovely young war widow, portrayed by Miss Me- Guire, the young hero senses that he can find peace and understand ing with her. Almost reluctantly he falls in love with her, and together they work through their individual unhappiness to find peace and con- tentment.
 Mitchum and Williams depict the hero two buddies; the former longs for small ranch, but the latter, a former prize fighter, sees no future for himself, for he is now legless.
 How these two along with the hero, eventually find themselves, adds up to superb screen enter tainment.
 The features cast includes Jean Porter, Tom Fully, Ruth Nelson, Harry Won Zell, Johnny Sands, William Gargan, Selena Royale and Loren Tindall.
 The companion feature is Strange Voyage and features Ed die Albert.

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 27. - For years, Hollywood's syndicated col- umnists have been deluged with let ters from irate parents, complain ing that there were no suitable weekend movie programs for their youngsters. Dutifully, we've passed the beefs along, hoping that even- tually someone in the film indus try might become interested.
 It's pleasure to report that now, at long last, someone has become concerned and that something con- crete is actually being done! The someone is Eric Johnston, presi- dent of the Motion Picture Asso- citation of America.
 At his instigation, 10 major film companies-Republic, United Ar tists, Columbia, Metro-G -Goldwn- Mayer, Paramount, RKO, 20th Gen. tury-Fox, Universal, Monogram and Warner Brothers - have agreed to furnish pictures especially suited for juvenile audiences to the M. P. A. A., which, working with the various distribution companies, will put them into neighborhood the aters throughout America for special Saturday morning screen ings for children only The list of pictures donated is too long to detail here, but I can assure you that it is unusually we'll chosen. Not only does it offer 100 percent whole some entertainment; it also offers some of the finest productions of the past ten years.
 Now that Hollywood has taken this first step, it's up to the par ents of America to give the plan their wholehearted cooperation. The Saturday morning shows-like any other theater offerings-need patronage if they are to be con? tinued. By seeing to it that your spring offs attend as regularly as possible, you'll encourage Holly wood to carry this worthwhile plan even further

 Before becoming the owner of one of Hollywoods most ultra-ultra restaurants, Mike Romanoff gained international notoriety and police record by posing as a Russian prince and hookwinking American society At the moment, Mike is playing a featured role in Arch of Triumph ' Yesterday, while I was visiting the set, he was called upon to join h. grid Bergman and Charles Boyer in champagne drinking scene and surprised the troupe by provid- ing bottle of real, imported, sup er-deluxe wine.

 This weeks best ingenious ges- ture was conceived by Mrs. Otto Kruger, whose actor husband is currently on the New York stage. Instead of sending her spouse pres ents and cards on his birthday, she telephoned a mutual friend in New York and asked him to arrange a surprise party for Otto in her name and at her expense. Mrs. Kruger's proxy called Otto only after the rest of the party had assembled, and found him disconsolately alone at his hotel, breeding. over the thought that his family and friends had forgotten him.

He received the news that the $20,000 white ele- phant, which had already involved him in several legal actions, was finally finished and ready for use while he was on an MGM set, and promptly invited the troupe to ac- company him to his home for a swim after work. Arriving at his home, Duranate found the pool already occupied-by the workmen. What's going on here?" he de- manded. "Just part of the service, J was the answer. We wouldn't think of leaving a job like this without first trying it out!"

theatre. Both girls love the same man, Cornel Wilde.
 Jeanne had never met Cornel be- fore the picture, and their first scene together turned. out to be a love scene that was one of the most difficult ever filmed.
 It seems that Jeanne had to run along 8 low pier, halt at certain spot, and gaze eagerly out into the lake where Ccrnel was padding toward her in canoe. He had to maneuver the canoe alongside the pier, so he could grasp the post, step up beside her, take her. in his arms and kiss her as if they would never be separated again.
 The business of stepping out of a canoe into a girls arms was some thing new in Wilde's life, and the business of registering adult emo- ton was something new in Jeanne's life. But they both had to become expert in five minutes because 1t was late and the sun was fading.
 Director John M. Stahl O. K.'d their eighth kiss.
