FOREVER AMBER' IN TE(HNIC0L0R
 AT 10TH CENTURY

With the opening Sunday at the 20th Century Theatre of Twentieth Century -Fox's Technicolor filmiza- tion of Forever Amber, the most widely discussed motion pie ture project in recent years reach es screen fultillment.
 Never, in the history of the in dustry, has any film provoked such excited speculation and interest among all categories of movie goers as well as among critics and leaders in the literary world it. self
 Kathleen Winsor's story of a country girl in the l7th century who became the most talked-about woman in the brilliant court of King Charles II is easily one of the most provocative novels to Le published in this generation. It swept the nation to mark up the most sensational best-selling record of all time; eighty million people in the United States have already read the book, and it has been translated into half the languages of the globe.
 When Forever Amber" was an- nounced to be produced, greatest public interest centered around the choice of an actress to play Am ber,' and after virtually every actress in the United States and Great Britain had been consider ed, and many of them tested, the converted role was awarded to Lin- da Darnell
 ! Cornel Wilde was then selected to play the role of Bruce Carl ton, the dashing cavalier Amber loved all her life, through thick and thin, fire and plague, and a dozsn tempestuous affairs.
 The others of the large cast were | also chosen from ranks of players fitted for the thrilling scenes and as result Forever Amter" comes to the screen as a production ot more than passing note.

 She said that the trip was won derful, but that she was very happy to be back in Juneau.
 The weather was atrocious every where I went but in southern Cali fornia," she said, and I've decided that Juneau's weather is certainly no worse than in the States
 Mrs. Vuille visited with her sister in Wichita, with her mother in Winfield, Kansas, and with another sister and a brother in Los Angeles and Hollywood In all she travelled about 6,000 miles by plane, boat and train
 While in Hollywood, her brother, who is comptroller for Columbia Pictures, took her to the studio set to see the shooting of the film "Lu- lubelle," in which George Mont gomery and Dorothy Lamour are co-starred. There are several other well known stars in the picture and Mrs. Vuille met them all

 Waico;t on Points
 The official score cards when totalled showed 37 points for Wal icott and 32 for Louis. Up to four points can be won in a round de- pending on how decisively the SCOT CT favors one contestant. However, decisions are not based on aggregate points.
 With typical candor Lcuis said afterwards, T won, but ! was dis gusted with myself. It was a bad fight. < always said I wasn't the man I was before.'
 Return Fight
 Louis damaged his good right hand. He thought this happened in the fifth round. An x-ray after midnight showed no bones broken, said his manager, John Peterborough. However, it was badly bruised"
 Immediately talk started of q re- turn match between the two Ne groes, and Webster spoke in terms of a million dollar gate outdoors in June"
 The crowd was brought to its feet in the first round when Walcott landed a hard right and Joe half slipped, half-fell to his knees for the count of two. Champ Goes Down In the fourth, Walcott's right brought down the champion, and no mistake about it. His left eye

THE L0CKET" I5 COMING SUNDAY,
 CAPITOL THEATRE

How a womans camouflaged past catches up with her at a dramatic moment provides the climax of RKO Radios poignant drama, "The Locket,' in which Laraine Day plays that woman. Brian Aherne, Robert Mitchum and Gene Raymond are co-starred with Miss Day This feature is at the Cap itol Theatre Sunday.
 The plot revolves around the re- suits of an unfortunate childhood experience by the central char acter in whom it bred an irresist- able impulse to steal, coupled with a remarkable ability to conceal her failing from the most intimate as sociates.
 Mitchum plays the heroine's art ist fiance whose career is wreck ed as a consequence of her thiev- cry. Aherne portrays a psychiat- rist who, unaware of her failing, marlies her, and is likewise ruined when her activities come to light Raymond is cast as 8 young fly CT about to become her second husband when her past seeks him out with a warning that leads to the stirring climax of the plot.
 John Brahm directed and Ricar- do Cortaz, Henry Stephenson, Kath- erine Emery, Reginald Denny and itt.e Sharyn Moffett have featur- d roles in the production by Cert Cranet which Sheridan Gib- ley wlote.

already puffing, Louis rested on one knee up to the count of seven.
 Towards the end the roar became deafening. When the bell rung to close the 18th round, Louis walked rapidly to the ropes and was half way out of the ring before his trainers pulled him back. He ex- plained afterwards that this was be- cause of his disgust with himself.
 Louis told me then he was sor- ry," said Walcott He said real low, I'm sorry, Joe, it's not my fault"

Mrs. PosT: The length of skirt is not so
important factor as the material of which
it is made. For example, plain cotton pique
may have long skirt and an elaborate lame
short one. Therefore. choose your dress
according to the material and style As for
the length of the skirt. pick the one that will
serve your particular needs best
Discouxteous Smokers
ARE THERE any occasions tplen ii is definitely
bad manners for man or q wo,nan 10 smoke?
MRS. Posi-: 1t is discourteous to smoke in
the house of someone who objects to the
habit. This is especially true when one is
seated at the table, when no provisions for
smoking have been included in the table
setting.
And finally, man may of course smoke in
the street, but woman who does so loses
dignity In general, one should consider ones
own appearance and the feelings of people
around him

Here are the answers to
some puzzling questions

W7oULD TWO SEPARATE announcements -
w one engraved tn the name of her mother
and the other tn the name Of her father - be
the solution for the bride whose divorced parents
hare both remarked? The bride does not want
to choose the name Of one in preference TO The
other for the announcements
MRS. Posi-: Under these circumstances,
such plan is the only practical one to make.
1t is true that the brides mother has the
privilege of giving her daughters wedding.
Invitations and announcements sent by the
mother are in no way derogatory to the
father Loyalty to him is made evident by
the BRIDES arrival at the church in his care,
walking up the aisle with him and by his
giving her in marriage.
On the other hand, there is no valid reason

why separate announcements NAV not he
sent to the separate lists of both parents
divided according to their families, individual
irlends and most especially, their business or
professional associates.
One last point: Both step-parents' names
are properly included.
Wife's Friend

of both properties it was deemed
advisable to accept the Howard Of
fer rather than the Love property
