Ladd Hurt Filming
Big Fight Scene

HOLLYWOOD - A savage
fight scene in 1.-TWO Years Be
fore the Mast" Paramount S
rough and tumble sea epic, took
a realistic turn when Alan Ladd
fell and wrenched his back SO
severely that he was unable to
report for work for a week.
Director John Farrow had to
revise his schedule to shoot
around the star.
The fight, one of a dozen
which were waged during the
making of the story of the hell
ship Pilgrims eventful voyage
around Cape Horn a century
ago, was bewteen Alan, playing
a shanghaied sailor, and Louis
Van Rooten, the brutal first
mate. During the scene the ship
rolled and pitched in simula-
ton of a vessel plowing through
the high seas, making it difficult
for the actors to keep their feet.
In a wild exchange of blows,
Alan lost his footing and went
down, twisting his back. He had
to be helped to his feet and the
pain was so intense that he was
taken home and put to bed un-
der a light, with hot pads appli-
ed to his back.

slrpetual emotion. Claudia
loves David, and David loves
Claudia. But it's not as simple
as that-not with Claudia. For
David Gas she would be for any

mildly, a trial-indeed, a series
OF trials-that keeps II elr

atomic excitement.
It is around this wondrously
intriguing pixie and her mar
rassed but ever-patient husband
that this enthralling story re-
wolves. When Claudia becomes
convinced that her happy mar
riage sticks out all over her,
while David looks positively

u livities require that he spend
hours with a very attractive
widow: when a phony psychic
warns Claudia of dire things to
come; and when an irate wife
uops up to demand that Claudia
stop monopolozing her husband
the picture hits peak OF de-
lightful hilarity and excitement
that is sustained right through
to is grand climax.
Dorothy Mcclure as Claudia
gives a perfect gem of a por-
travail. She has infused this es-
pecially challenging role with a
warmth and conviction that
makes for an altogether be-
witching performance. Her
every moment on the screen IS
pure delight.

widow In search of an architect;
John Sutton as the unhappily

Rose Hobart as the jealous wife;

Love And Friendship

The problem seems to be, tc

These are the words on which
the title of the thrilling melo.
drama, Rage In Heaven
which M-G-M will represent al

future, is based.
The James Hilton story is wo-

of Robert Montgomery who, as
"a charming weakling, imagines
that his wife, Ingrid Bergman, is
in love with his best friend,
George Sanders. Contrasting
his own inferiority with his
friends strength, he embarks or
a plan of mental torture of his
wife, hoping to trap her into q
confession of betrayal.
This is a case where jealousy
almost wrecks the lives of three

He took her into his arms, awk-
wardly, as though she had been
something so infinitely fragile and
precious that the slightest careless
touch might destroy her; yet there
was strength and an urgent ten
derness in his touch that made her
heart stir unaccustomedly. She
loved his very awkwardness, loved
the fact that when he bent to kiss
her, his lips touched her cheek be-
fore finding her lips. She was the

enough experience with other girls
to be deft and smooth with her en-

There were so many things to be

 National Football League President
 New York, Aug. 22-(UP-Or- ganized professional football, amply fortified to meet any challenge through the signing of the major minor league agreements, swings off into the 1946 season with every in- dication of surpassing all previous records.
 Season ticket sales, in the minors as well as the major league, are up from 200 to 300 percent and reports from the various camps where teams are in training assure the public the type of competition to which it had become accustomed in the years immediately preceding Pearl Harbor.
 Much of the increased interest in professional football can be traced directly to the major minor league agreements. It is in these agreements that the Dixie League, the American League and the Pa- cifc Coast League recognize the old established National as the only major league. From them the mi- nors get protection against raiding of players and infringement of ter ritories by the major league clubs.
 Their prestige is increased and their operations are better stabi- lized. Professional football finally has gotten together on an organized basis to work for the betterment of the sport, and the public and the player have responded enthusias- tically.
 Comparatively, all teams will be stronger, principally because of bet ter reserve strength, with many Of the pre-war stars coming back to take up their careers where they were interrupted. There were four seasons right after Pearl Harbor when coaches had no choice at all. Their problem was not one of pick ing the best eleven, but finding Il of any kind who would be available at game time. This year the train ing camp dispatches again are full of the difficulties coaches are hay ing on deciding which players to keep. It is not necessary to sym- pathize with these poor harried gentlemen. They love it. They haven't had so much fun in years.
 Football, also finds itself in lit tie different position than other sports, in the matter of returning servicemen. Players reporting to National League clubs have been out of service for some time, while at the start of the baseball season, for instance, great many former stars jumped right out of govern ment livery into the lineupS. They were deprived of that period of re- adjustment and conditioning so es- sential to an athlete who has been away from his game for any length of time.
 As result it is not expected that major league football will find re- turning veterans slowing down in

the coming pennant races is a re- building process. This is as true in the major league as it is in the minors, where many clubs will be in operation for the first time. The building process, however, will not be handicapped by lack of ma terial There are more football players right now than the clubs know what to do with.
 Coupling the available material and box office reports with the re- turn of such noted organizers and coaches as George Halas to the Chi cago Bears, Dr. John B. Sutherland to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Jimmy Councilman to the Chicago Cardinals, there can be little doubt that major league football will have one of it's greatest seasons. As a matter of fact, we look confidently to playing to more than 100000 spectators for the first time in the 27 years the National League has been in operation.

Borough Pin Loop Meetinq

Naugatuck, Aug. 22 - President Stan Bottorf is calling the first meeting of the Naugatuck Indus trial Bowling League for tomorrow night at 7:30 P. M. The group will gather in the employment office of the United States Rubber Company.
 League rules will be discussed and adopted at this meeting. It is planned to open the season at the Palace Alleys on September 9th, with one-ball tourney. The regu- lar league schedule will commence the following week.
 From preliminary contacts al- ready made, it appears as though the league will enjoy the largest entry since it's start several years ago. All of last years participating teams will enter the field again. They include Naugatuck Chemical, Synthetic Division, U. s. Rubber Footwear, Bristol Company, T. F. Butterield, Risdon, and Eastern Malleable Iron Co. In addition, Naugatuck Glass Co.,, w. J. Megin, Inc, and the J. M Russell Mfg. Co., have signified intentions of en- tering teams for the first time.
 Last years winners were Chet Underhill's U. s. Rubber Footwear team which defeated their cousins from the Chemical Plant in a play off match for the championship. They then went on to place second in the State Industrial Bowling Bowling tournament held later in New Haven.
 Officers for the coming year are president, Stan Bottorf; Yice-presi- dent. Ed McGrath; treasurer, Bill Mag; and secretary, Frank Behl- man. Publicity will be handled by committee of four, namely, Yale Niziolek, Jim Lombardi, Al Pista- relli and John Jok.

Our coaches have had ample time to make study of the situation. The tendency is to go easy with the man out of service and especially not to expect too much from him immediately, re- gardless of what report the athlete makes on himself. Almost to a man the returning veterans are too enthusiastic about their condition and reconversion. Most of them will regain their old ability if they are given time
