 Fifteen years ago Brown wrote a song for Bing Crosby to sing in a smoke-fi cafe sequence in Go ing Hollywood" When he presented his finished composition, skeptics termed it an odd tune that wouldn't catch on with the public. The song was unusual, being advanced in har- mony for that day. However, it was this very feature that was respon- sible for it's becoming one of the enduring hits of all time. The song was Temptation"
 The new Brown melody, With lyrics by William Katz, is intro duced by Miss Gardner, also in a smoke filled cafe.

"BEY0ND GLORY" E DRAMATIC FEATURE. AT 10TH CENTURY

Beyond Glory" which opens at the 20th Century Theatre tonight, pits Alan Ladd against the toughest adversary of his battle-filled screen career-himself.
 Paramount's unusual romantic drama, co-starring L a d d with Donna Reed, casts the two-fisted actor as a self accused murderer in love with the widow of his vic tim It grippingly depicts the rag ing inner conflict which drives him into exile from the rest of the world until he re-lives three terrifying minutes out of his past.
 Original in theme as is Beyond Glory" the story it tells might well have happened to any one of mil lions of Americans. Ladd plays a veteran who comes out of the war, bedecked with medals, but tortur- ously obsessed with the idea that he was responsible for his captains death. There is no peace. no place for him in the postwar world.
 In desperation, he contacts the woman he believes he has widowed, hoping to find solace in hearing her condemnation. Instead, they fall in love and he decides to find himself by facing the challenge of West Point, by living the life of the man he thinks he killed.
 At the Academy, he becomes in volved in a storm of controversy in which his past--and the very fu- ture of the school-come under heavy attack. There, Ladd's war story is told in retrospect, the very important blank spaces being filled in with mounting suspense until the tension explodes into the films finale.

Nobody seems to know whence
came April Fools day. and lot
of people will wish it never had
before this Saturday is over.
Like many other customs Of
supposedly civilized people. it ap-
parently had its origin in pagan
ism and superstition.
Quoth one English author of
by-gone days:
1T is thought very jocose to
pour water on any person who
passes, or throw powder in his
face. But to do both is the per-
fection of wit"
One researcher came up with
the theory that all the fooling
began when Romulus and his early
settlers in Rome played a joke on
the SabineS one April /. The
Romans invited the Sabines over
for some athletic events, then
while they were being athletic,
made off with all the best-looking
Sabine women.
This theory was confounded by
another scholar, who pointed out
that the whole event was not a
joke, particularly to the Sabines,
and that even the Romans were
serious about getting new women.
Festivals have been held around
April in various corners of the
earth-civilized and uncilivized-
for thousands of years. The word
April is believed derived from the

Exact Origin Of April Fools Day Still Unknown

Latin "aperire" ito open"-and
may have been applied to the
fourth month by the Romans be-
cause it is the month when vege-
tation unfolds and nature and
men and animals renew life.
Assuming that April-fooling is
related to the fun-making Of
these almost universal festivals
held near the Spring equinox, the
exact origin of April Fools Day
still escapes those who care
enough to try to find out.
Wherever it came from, mod
erns must face the fact that
April Fools Day is here again.
The kids will have fun, which
is excusable.
A less charitable view will be
adopted by many toward adults
who use it as an excuse to pull
jokes. in the loose sense of the
word.
Be warned. Those whose's
names are Coffin. Mudd, etc. stay
away from the telephone. The
same goes for the aquarium. which
will be asked if Mr.. Fish is there,
