Hollywood rewrites history
for 'The Magnificent Doll"
By MARJORIE MILTON

''The Magnificent Doll" recent
ly shown at the Palace Theater
has been widely advertised as the
life story of Dolly Madison.
AS the wife of James Madison,
Ginger Rogers plays the title role
in manner designed to continue
the legend of Americas mos;
glamorous First Lady.
The historical authenticity OF
this movie is something which
could only be judged by ont
more familiar with the era OF
Madison than I.
But knowing the way of Hol.
lywood with other periods of
American history, I feel reason
ably secure in venturing the
guess that the film is composed
of considerably less fact than fic-
ton.
1 AM especially inclined to
question the motives, as well as
the accuracy of the producers in
presenting such a romanticized
portrait of Aaron Burr, the in.
famous traitor of the post Revolu-
tionary period. We have recently
been presented by Hollywood
with several revised editions of
American history, notably Ten
nessee Johnson" Is this, per-
haps, more Of the same.
The film traces the story Of
Dolly from her modest begin
ming In her fathers establish.
ment, through her romantic (and
rOmanticized) attach
ment to Burr, to her marriage
with Madison and the years in
the White House. The burning of
the capital is portrayed in an ex.
citing scene and Dolly's famous
rescue Of the White House treas.
ares has been included.
Miss Rogers is competent and
very attractive in the gorgeous
gowns of the period. As James
Burgess Meredith gives
his usual fine performance and
David Niven, in his first post
war role, is excellent as Aaron
Burr. The high point of the mo-
vie is Madison's fine speech
about democracy.

RECORD NOTES
By RAEBURN FLERAGE

1t takes CUTS, in this crazy
world, to stick by your guns =
to fight for what you believe In.
Bud Freeman tells me that some
of his friends ask him why he
can't be like Benny Goodman,
with large, successful. CONNER
cial band. Buds answer is SIM
pie: he doesn't believe in that
kind of music.
Bud believes in small cOmbos,
where a musician has room to
say what he has to say with his
instrument.
He has been blowing one OF
the greatest tenor saxes I'm the
business since the days when
jazz was a baby - and he still
is. II you can tell when a man
is putting his heart in his music,

Stan Kenton, on the other hand,
believes in big bands but he
believes that they should have
something original to say. They
tell me he's leading in toe Down
beat polls for most popular swing

the crowd goes for the way he
says it.

The presence in Washington Of

The biggest day Of festivities for

instead of at luncheon. Following
the session, which will be presided
over by the Brazilian Ambassador,
Senior Carlos Martins, Senorita
Mistral will be entertained ut .

today she will be entertained at
luncheon by Mrs. Francis Biddle.
The latter, who translated one Of
her poems, is also a poet of ability.
Under the name of Katharine

in spite of the many duties which
fell to her lot when her husband
