The principal participants. a sleek
lot, include Robert Young, Susan
Hayward, Jane Greer and Rita
johnson.
Behind these, Miss Harrison and
her director, Irving Pichel, have
marshalled some facile minor play
ers who take their jobs seriously
enough to compete with the stars.
In giving these lesser characters a
chance to make their marks upon
audiences, Miss Harrison is more
successful Hitchcock imitator than

TALLY successful.
"They Won't Believe Me" finds its
merit more in its classy craftsman
ship than in the novelty Of its mar
rative. 1t is told with enough skill
that even its hero-villain can in
dulge the irreverence of referring
to himself as one more broker type
in q blue, pin-stripe suit. 1t is his
conduct, but not his social standing
or his wardrobe, that is enough OH
the conventional to make his story
reasonably interesting.
Keith's picture is a blend of sus-
pense, quick, wry humor and flashes
of the Sordid situations into which
too much charm can lead a man.
It's key setting is a court room in
which Young occupies the witness
chair as defendant in murder trial.
His lawyer has allowed him to tell
the jury what happened. AS he
tells it, the camera flashes back over
the manifold scenes of his errant life,
the first of which is a small. intl-
mate bar in New York's f1ashy sos.
The question, of course, that runs
along with the narrative is whether
the audience and jury will believe
him. A look at the faces OF the
latter can only intensity the sus-
pense in which the tale holds the
audience. Selection of this jury
might well be the most oramaIlc
single thing about the screenplay.

ries will be mailed out to all
members as soon as the signed
contracts have been returned

LONDON, Oct. 21-Royal her
aids IN medieval tunics of gold
and scarlet trumpeted a fanfare
today, and wide-eyed girl
|fidgeting on a small oak and
plush throne was presented to the
British Empire as it's next
ruler.
Princess Elizabeth made her
debut as heiress apparent to the
throne at the ceremonious open
ing Of a new session of Parlia-
ment. She sat at the Kings
right hand. Only the heir to the
throne does that on this occa-
sion. The last to do so was the
Prince of Wales, in the closing
years Of the reign Of George V.
Elizabeth, the girl who will be
married a month less day
hence, still will be heiress pre-
sumptive officially. By tradition
it must never be assumed that
the King and Queen will have
no male issue.
But as clearly as though it
had been clarioned in words,
the Princess in the long-skirted
gown of dusty pink crepe was
being presented today to the
Empire as it's future queen,
providence willing.
The ancient ceremony ap-
peared to provide the Princess
with an awkward 20 minutes.
From the dim distance of the
plebian press gallery she ap-
peared to fidget.
AS the state procession en-
tered the crowded House
of Lords, the scene of the joint
opening of a new session of the
mother of parliaments, she
walked slowly and alone, a few
feet behind King George and
Queen Elizabeth.
The King and Queen ascended
the three steps to the dais and
sat upon the ancient carved and
tapestried throne seats. The
Princess stood in front of her
rather ugly chair on the second
step at the Kings right.
There was a moments hush.
Then the King said, 'My lords,
pray be seated" Elizabeth gave
her floor-length skirt a tiny kick
and perched on her chair.
AS her father slowly read the
''King's Speech she stared
woodenly ahead, her face dead
ly serious. After a while she
turned her head, exploring the
packed chamber with earnest
eyes.
1t was not unexpected that the
PRINCES, in this maiden appear
ance on her throne, lacked the
regal grace of her mother. The
queen, looked decorously COM
fortable-no mean feat in her

throne. Her train draped in a

appeared to listen attentively to
his words.
The Queen gave the impress
sion of smiling gcaciously upon
the assembled aobles and digni-
taries. The Princess stared at
them with wide eyes, but did
not smile.
The Queen moved her hands
from her lap once, to touch
gently an errant curl. The Prin-
cess repeatedly fingered the
pearls at her throat.
The King seemed to time his
slow phrases like musician,
his left foot beating the meas
ure upon the red carpet.
While the Queens feet were
tucked out of sight, the pale
slippers of the Princess kept ap-
pearing and disappearing be-
meath the hem of her gown.
When the King had finished,
the robed lord Chamberlain as
cended the dais, took the speech
from his hand, and with head
bowed backed down the steps
from the royal presence.
The King looked at the Queen,
the Queen nodded, and they
both rose and walked down the
steps. The Princess followed,
and stood to one side as her
parents bowed, first to the right
and then to the left.
Their majesties turned and
walked from the chamber. The
Princess watched them for a
moment, then bowed once, her
face still grave. She turned and
hurried after them. with the
royal entourage falling in be-
