Miss Lockwood, was astounded to

countryside constrasts strikingly
with what women appear to have

Evening star., 1947-01-31
By Harry Macarthur

The most surprising thing about
''The Secret Heart" which opened
Yesterday at the Capitol, is that
it was written originally for the
screen without first having appeared
in the pages of a woman's magazine
1t is just the sort Of yarn many
a man has come across in the
night while browsing through one
of those slick paper feminine
journals to discover what in the
world has kept his wife quiet all
evening. It is well-conStructed
pile Of sentimental gulf, it has
fair leayening of humor and its
stars are Claudette Colbert, Walter
Pidgeon and June Allyson, all OF
which should gain 1t a certain
degree of success.
"The Secret Heart" adheres close
|ly to the formula by which such
yarns tighten the lot of the woman
addicted to them, sustaining her
with the fictional proof that
good and noble woman can sur
mount any tragedy. 1t Is, like
so many of its counterparts the
story of a woman who bravely
faces financial debacle and scandal,
goes off to get job and in no time
at all is a high-powered executive.
She rears her children properly
and finally, her task complete, re-
turns to the arms of her faithful
true love.
The disaster in this case Is the
suicide of the woman's husband
| in the face of financial ruin and
the major problem is her teen-age
daughter. The daughter is marked
for sure neurosis the night OF the
suicide and moons about for the
next 10 years loving only her
fathers memory and playing the
piano only for him. She Is quite
distracting child. 1t is her great
good fortune that her mother went
to a psychiatrist for advice instead
of coming to us.
Well, to get on, the psychiatrist's
advice is to return to the farm
where the trouble all started in the
hope that daughter will be shaken
enough some time to return from
that world all her own. At the
farm, the nearest neighbor Is the
| faithful admirer mama hasn't seen
| for 10 years and-oh, you've read
| it all before.
| The performances of Miss Colbert
as the mother of Pidgeon as her
admirer are agreeable enough to
make up for a lot, Miss Allyson is
a charming young lady in spite of
her neuroSis and Robert Sterling
is quite likable young man.

The stage show headliner is
Think-a-Dri Hoffman, the man

The others are Jean Carroll, whose
comedy delivery is better than the
material; Johnny Down, who sings

Apart from what 1t does to Ma
sons reputation as a male straight
from the stone age, wicked Lady"
Is almost as damaging to the lately

proves that Hollywood has no corner

to the point of burlesque and that
the trade mark of J. Arthur Rank
also gets stuck on some shoddy

~
wicked Lady" title that re-
fers to pretty Margaret Lockwood,
is a preposterous piece OF fiction
credited to Magdalen King Hall.
Laid in the 1680s, it certainly will
disabuse you of any notions that
Englishwomen were suppressed or
lacking in spirit at that time.
The most beautiful and amoral OF
the lot was Barbara Worth, orphan
daughter of what had been good"
family. Barbara's first recorded
misdemeanor is that of stealing her
best friends fiancee. That makes
her Lady Barbara SHELTON, but it
does not make her happy. On her
wedding night, she meets another
man with whom she falls in love.
This promises to be exciting. but
when the chap leaves the same
night, there Is nothing for Lady
Barbara to do but take up high
way robbery.
This turns out to be just the
lark she had been looking for, the
more frantically fun when she runs
into Mason, real pro at holding
UP stages and robbing their pas
sengers Of jewels and currency.
With him, she not only roams the
main highways but begins to haunt
some of the low taverns in the
neighborhood, there to drink and
romp in celebration of each holdup.
Noble delinquency probably never
has been piled more thickly than

The Cast

On what must have been fright
fully dull day, RKO concluded there
should be room for one more screen
play dealing with prison life. So,
the studio made one called "San
Quentin" which turned up at
Keiths yesterday The blunt report
on it must be that it looks like
three dozen earlier exhibits en- the
same subject and that its chief
merit is that it runs only little
more than an hour.
Lawrence Tierney. q dead-pan
actor of the type all studios keep
in stock, is the hero of San Quen-
tin" This casting should be put
down as fresh note in San Quen-
tin" in that Tierneys last appear
ance was in the role of John Dill
linger Patiently, that is quite a
change and one that should be for
the better, but is not.
RKO makes a rugged, but futile,
attempt to put new face on a
tattered tale in "San Quentin" 1t
speaks here CT a prisoners honor
league, a go at making San Quen-
tins convicts sclf-governing. The
league is Tierney's idea and it seems
to be getting along fine until an
ape named Nick Taylor does an end
run around the honor system and
escapes. In this process, he gives
the whole idea of prison reform an
even blacker eye by shooting down
the warden who believes in it.
The rest of the plot, as you know
very we'll, is devoted to Tierney's
pursuit and capture of nasty Nick
Taylor. This chase misses none OF
the familiar elements of dozens OF
such affairs. It is painfully lack
ing in drama except at such mo-
ments when the hero and villain
are wasting enough ammunition fol-
"a small revolution trying to kill
each other from distance of 2C
feet.
) This is new high in bad mark
manship even for Hollywood's no
torious gunner.

applies to the whole idea of "Sar
Quentin" j. c.

Injunctions Halt Strike
AT Tropical Park

MIAMI. Fla, Jan. 4.-Pairs of
pickets that had patrolled each en-
trance gate to Tropical Park. be-
cause of an electricians strike were
withdrawn when injunction orders
were served today. But a union
spokesman Said he expected to have

said about six electricians were in

mutuel workers stayed away. Nearly
400 other mutuels workers reported
for duty as usual.
Florida's Attorney General J.
Tom Watson appeared personally
before Circuit Judge Ross Williams
and with Attorney William j. Pruitt,
obtained two temporary injunctions
One prohibited picketing, while the
other enjoined the track and union
from negotiating for a closed shop
in violation of Florida's right to
work amendment.
Pickets appeared on the scene
early today and marched in pairs

destruction per adult crow, nesting
in proximity to choice duck nesting
areas, reached the astounding figure
of more than ITO duck eggs and
ducklings. In 1916 Main, in speak
ing to the duck hunters of the
United States, warned again of
the tremendous destruction being
wrought by the black marauders,
stating that in the past nesting sea-
son nearly 100000 duck eggs
and ducklings were destroyed despite
the drive against these depredations.
Don't go crow shooting in the
belief that there's nothing to it.
Real crow hunting is as much if
not more of an art than duck hunt
ing itself. The crow is about the
smartest thing that flies, and much
smarter than most people think
Bert PopoWski says this about the
crow in his book, Grow Shooting:
He is gangster, thief and a mur-
derer, and yet he goes his maraud-
ing way virtually unscathed because
of his superlative intelligence, his
keen eyesight, and prudent-if not
downright cowardly - nature that
permits him to do his greatest dam
age when the odds are overwhelm-
ingly in his favor No bird so
nicely blends wariness with bold
ness, intelligence with craftiness,
and capacity for making himself
at home wherever he can find a
perch for his nobby claws and food
for his greedy gullet."
Few of us have spent much am
munition on duck hunting this last
season. If you really want to help
out in the duck situation, we know
of no better way than to use some
of this left over ammunition in
pursuit of the crow.
