Dick Powell, the ex-crooner who
|salvaged a career a few years back
by barring his knuckles, is walking
another tough guy role at Keith's.
The film is "Cry Danger" and it is
la further item of proof that the
movie starts with the story. A
good story can be turned into a
good or poor film. but a flimsy
story never becomes anything but
"a f1imsy story. no matter how in
genious the disguise.
Mr.. Powell is agreeable and au-
thentic enough as the self-reliant
nero. The city of Los Angeles is q
moderately true-to-life set, which
does what it can to make the
goings-on of "Cry Danger" appear
to be happening in life rather
than in a whodunit composers
typewriter. The script. prepared
by William Bowers from Jerome
Cady's story. has sufficient
amount of bitterly ironic humor
But nothing happens in the
Keith's melodrama will come as
a surprise to anyone who ever
spent quarter for a light mystery
as a soporific on a train ride.
The film casts Powell as a man
recently pardoned after five years
in the penitentiary on murder
charge. He wants to clear his best
friend. still in stir for taking part
in the robbery during which a
murder occurred. and he wants to
find the man who really did the
job. Before the witness who sprung
him is disclosed as a phony. which
is in Reel No. l. it is fairly clear
what course Cry Danger" is going
to take and it takes it.
In addition to Mr.. Powell's thor
oughly acceptable work as a man
battered more than somewhat by
fate and things. there's a fine per-
formance by Richard Erdman as
a twisted ex-Marine on the prowl
for hunk of a 100000 wad
floating loose. Rhonda Fleming
plays girl who turns out to be
what you expect, William Conrad
plays an underworld character,
Regis .Toomey plays one of those
knowing detectives and Jean Por-
ter plays girl named Darlene.
Looks just like a girl named
Darlene. ..-... ...-

and have to duck into Keith's to

The Districts amateur golf all
stars were asked to consider COM
peting in match with all-State
teams from Virginia, the CarolinaS
and Georgia in early December,
probably starting in 1852, last
night at a dinner in Richmond,
following their 14-10 defeat by
a hand picked team from the Old
Dominion.
The contemplated match would
be held the first week of Decem-
Der at PinehurSt, N. c., and may
possibly be started this year. The
District Golf Association also is
working on a triangular match
next year with amateur stars from
Maryland and Philadelphia.
With increased activity in inter-
city and State matches the Dis
trict officials realized after yes
terday's defeat that they must use
more care in selecting a team, and
not just name players on a hap
hazard basis. While this was the
first defeat in three years for the
District, the match was not as
close as the final score indicated.
The Virginians were down in only
one match at the end of nine
holes and won almost as they
pleased.
Sticks to Merit Choices.
While Washington team was
named so as not to offend some
member clubs of the District Golf
Association, the Virginia players
were selected on a merit basis
only. The eight quarter finalists
in the Virginia Amateur were
named, and the others were
picked on tournament perform
ances and match-play ability. The
Virginia team previously drubbed
West Virginia in an annual inter-
State match.
