Miss Arthur returns to the studio
with which she signed her first
kScreen contract a number OF
ears ago. After playing a series
~of supporting roles and leading
woman parts as a young in
genue, she left the screen to
make a try at Broadway. The
result was stage stardom which
brought her back to Hollywood
Having reached a point in her
career where she could appear
only in pictures which appealed
particularly to her, Miss Arthur
attained outstanding success as
the star of such productions as
"Mr. Deeds Goes to Town,
"The Plainsman," "The More
the Merrier," you Can't Take
1t With YOU" "Mr. Smith Goes
to Washington" Easy Living
and Arizona"

Part of this time she spent or

to pictures, however, by pro
ducer Charles Bracket and di-
rector Billy Wilder, who to-
gether wrote the congresswoman

Uranium Ore in Mexico

chairman of the joint congressional
atomic energy committee has said
he finds nothing alarming in reports
that 220 grams of uranium turned
up in Mexico City.
The Connecticut Democrat said
a preliminary FBI investigation in
Dictated the find consisted of raw
uranium, rather than the ultra
refined uranium that is used to
make U-235, the atomic bomb in
gredient.
But Mcmahon said he intends to
wait for a more detailed FBI re-
port before considering the case
closed.
Mexico City dispatches said the
uranium was found in the posses
sion of a Mexican detained on a
routine matter by police last jan
uary. They said the 220 grams
we're enclosed in a tiny cylinder
about two and one-half inches long
and an inch in diameter.
Subsequent scientific tests show
ed the cylinders contents to be Of
a type not obtainable in Mexico.
This led Mexican authorities to be-
lieve that the uranium was stolen
from some U. S. atomic laboratory.

Illumination
Too Little, Too Short

NEW YORK. - An air force

flight and dropped several scores

The air force reported before
the experiment started that a
series Of brilliant flashes would
ring the skies, but the lights
were a big Disappointment
to the sp ectators. They
were low and of brief duration.
The flight was made to test
a new night Illuminating device
developed by the air force. The
flashes, it was reported, were
to give light estimated at so mil
lion candlepower, while camera
men in the plane took pictures.
From the roof tops Of Manhat-
tan it appeared as if a red ball
dropped from the plane, followed
shortly by the brief flash and
several seconds later by a not

Caruso was a good eater, he ate
