As / was driving down Main
Street last Saturday, another car
swung out right in front of me. 1t
turned out to be Buck Blake. He
wasn't going fast. It was just that
he had something else on his mind
at that particular moment.
Bucks really one of the incest
fellows I've ever known. But,
sometimes he gets to day-dream-
ing on the road. He sort of gets
a "blind spot" to what's going on
about himl
Now, lots of normally consider
ate folks have their "blind spots"

humming out loud at the movies.
From where I sit, it's mighty
important to be on guard against
your own "blind spots" The other
fellow has right to his "share Of
the road" too-whether it's hav-
ing a taste for a temperate glass
of sparkling beer or desire to lis
ten to some classical music if he
wants to.

The government takes a dim
view of people who try to get rich
by printing their own money. no
matter how perfect this money
may be when judged by artistic
standards. The government takes
such a dim view, in fact. that it
keeps people on the payroll who
are willing at any moment to risk
their necks by impersonating
people who do not take a dim
view Of private money-printing
the better to trap the printers.
Trapped" the new film at the
National, is the latest Hollywood
report on what is being done
about counterfeiting. Trapped"
starts out by acting like a docu-
mentary and soon falls into the
pattern set by so many other
films designed to prove that crime
does not pay. Crime does not pay,
it points out, because there is al
ways some Federal agent who
joins a gang, Is discovered for the
stoolie he is, and finally proves he
is smarter and/or luckier than
everybody around intent on lar
ceny.
Lloyd Bridges plays a man re-
leased from the penitentiary to
help snag some counterfeiters,
John Hoyt plays the Federal man
and Barbara Payton. a blond girl,
impersonates a blond girl. There
probably Is a fortune awaiting the
first man to make a Aim about an
undercover agent who Joins a
Hollywood gang to bring to Justice
the mob responsible for counter
felt melodrama plots.
