T0pN0TCH COMEDY
 CAST IN FEATURE
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Such a combination of comedy talent as is seldom seen in on' motion picture will be found il Paramounts laugh-film, Miss Tat locks Millions" which arrives to- night at the 2Oth Century The atre. In starring roles are John Lund, Wanda Hendrix, Barry Fitz- gerald, and Monty Woolley, sup ported by Ilka Chase, Robert Stack Dorothy Stickney and Elizabeth Patterson. There is also the sur prise appearance of a comedy stai who chooses to call himself Rich ard Rancyd for his role in this picture, but who is more popularly known as Richard Haydn.
 Miss Tatlocks Millions is Haydn'S first directorial effort, and word has it that he has brought to it his own rare sense of comedS timing, making it one of the fun niest pictures ever seen.
 The story concerns a family's scramble for fortune that was in- advertently bequeathed to dim witted grandson. The latter, be- lieved by his caretaker Barry Fitzgerald) to te dead, is imper- sonated by movie stunt man, John Lund, who complicates matters by falling in love with his sister, played by Wanda Hendrix.

S0R0pTIkI5TS HAVE BUSINESS MEETING;
 HEAR MRS. HERMANN

Soroptomists at their regular meeting on the Baranof Terrace Friday heard Mrs. Mildred Her mann's report of her attendance of the American Cancer Society in New York last fall, heard her story of the New York Herald Tribune forum, of her visits to the United Nations meeting, hearing Eleanor Roosevelt speak and having tea at the home of Mrs. Kermit ROose- welt.
 Though her previous meetings had been reported, Mrs. Hermann added two incidents of narrow escape from death that she ex- perienced. First, when she failed to take the airplane on which she had reservations from New York to Washington, and the plane crashed with all aboard killed and next when, instead of calling at the Post Office in Washington as she had intended, she called on Deie- gate Bartlett first, then found that the Post Office was surrounded by fire fighting equipment, that there had been an explosion in the room in the Post Office Building in which she had business.
 Admiring her will power, her soroptimist sisters, however, were probably more impressed by the fact that she had lost forty pounds before her return to Alaska. That was a major accomplishment that any dieting woman could appre- ciate.
 Gertrude Wetzel, Vice President, presided in the absence of Presi- dent Alice Thorne, and heard re- ports of club activities during the past month.
 Next meeting of the group will be January 13.
