The making of light comedies de-
signed to lure people into sneaking
couple of hours of air condition
ing in a theater seems to occupy a
lot of Hollywood's time. The results
range from the painful to the pass
able, with an occasional complete
success popping up. "The Trouble
with Women" which opened yester-
day at the Capitol, is not complete
success, but you can set 1t down as
passable.

esHunted in Attack
On 1huringia Leader
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

BERLIN, July Russian and
German authorities in Thuringia to-
day searched for possible political
accomplices of young German who
was captured yesterday after he
had attacked and wounded the pres
ident of Thuringia's Provincial
Council with a knife.
The captured man was identified
in dispatches of the Russian-con-
trolled German news agency as
Heinz Andre, 2S, former member of
the Hitler Youth. The dispatches
also identified Andre as a men,
ber Of the Rightist Liberal Demo-
cratic Party, but headquarters of
that party in Berlin said they had
no knowledge of his membership.
The attack on the council presi-
dent, August Froelich, member of
the Communist-dominated Socialist
Unity Party, occurred in his Office
at Weimar.
Andre was handed over to Rus
sian authorities and, dispatches add
ed, 'it has not yet been determined
If he is affiliated with a larger
political ring"
The Russian-controlled radio in
Berlin reported that public demon
strations were being held in Wei
mar. led by Thuringian officials, de-
manding "the severest punishment
for the assassin, his supporters and
anybody who attempts to violate
the growth of our new democracy
