HARGR0VE COMEDY |IS OPENING TONIGHT
 AT 10TH CENTURY

The three rollicking G. Is of See Here, Private Hargrove,' which brought Robert Walker to stardom, are reunited in M-G-M's new sequel, What Next, Corporal HargroveP' opening tonight at the goth Century Theatre. f
 With Walker once again in the title role, this time with promotion, the cast of the new comedy also fea- lures two principals of the earlier success. Keenan Wynn again plays Pvt. Mulvehill, the guy who can't resist racket. and Chill Wills is again cast as the snarling top ser geant who browbeats his underdogs into submission
 With much of the action of the new film involving combat groups, major portion of the picture was filmed at Camp Pendleton, field artillery training center some eighty miles south of Hollywood.
 However, instead of training camp locale, What Next. Corporal Hargrove?' is set in France, with Hargrove and his buddies enjoying adventure and romance in liberated village outside of Paris.
 In her most important screen role to date, vivacious Jean Porter plays the provocative French girl who keeps Hargrove and Mulvehill in continual hot water. Her activities are ably seconded by such support ing players as Arthur Walsh, Tim Murdock, Cameron Mitchell and Paul Langton. a5 e

Unfortunate That Stassen Quit

FEPC Or antidiScrlmlnatlon law, no

Delegates to Be Used"
Getting back to that Philadelphia
convention, how do the candidates
hope to capture those 200-odd dele
gates? For example, Senator Taft
claims, and probably correctly, that
the 33 from Texas will vote for him.
Who told him So? Answer: r. B.
Creager, National Committeeman
from Texas and longtime party
boss in that State. Mr.. Creager has
the consent of his delegation to use
the 80 votes as he sees fit. Senator
Taft is his notion Of a good Presi-
dent and the delegates will be used
to bring that about if it can be
done. If and when it appears that
it cannot be done, those delegates
will be thrown to a more likely
candidate. But quick.
AS it is in Texas, so 1t is in most
of the Southern States, with some
variations. In a nutshell, the State
party managers must ride with the
winner. They definitely must in a
year when they expect the candi-
date to be elected. Their power
rests on Federal patronage, at the
disposal of the President, and they
dare not affront the man about to
become the nominee.
