Be AtStrand

Clark Gable, Lana Turner, Vic
tor Mature and Louis Calhern are
the stars Of Betrayed" M-G-M
drama in color, coming to the
Strand screen Thursday. The new
picture unfolds a dynamic story of
romance, adventure and espionage
with the Dutch Resistance during
World War II. -
Not only is the theme of ''Be-
trayed" one that has never been
used previously in films, but the
picture is the first to have been
filmed almostlin its entirety in
Holland, with its unusual locations
shifting from the capital city of
Amsterdam to the Zuyder Zee.
Other backgrounds for the fast
paced action include Rotterdam,
The Hague, Volendam, Delft, Ma
astricht and Anthem, still bearMg
the scars of the struggle between
the entrenched Germans and Al
lied air-borne forces. It is here
that one of the story's climactic
scenes was filmed, the spectacu-
lar invasion in which 1850 Allied
paratroopers are dropped from the
skies into the Anthem woods.

HONG KONG H-Looking thin,
pale and i'll after Is months in
Communist Chinese captivity, two
American correspondents and a
ship captain from Brookly n
crossed into British Hong Kong
today.
One Of the trio, National Broad
casting Co. correspondent Richard
Apologize, 81, of Medford, Ore,
told a news conference that after
months Of solitary confinement in
4 Canton jail and long hours of
questioning, he had admitted the
Americans waged germ warfare
In Korea.
81 thought they either would
leave me In that prison until ]
rotted or that they would kill me, "
he said.
The Reds released Apologize,

spondent Donald Dixon, Is, of New
York, and merchant mariner Ben
jamin Krasner at the Lowu border
bridge. A US. consulate car
brought them the 40 miles to the
Peninsula Hotel at Kowioon, on
the mainland across from Hong
Kong.
Apologize gave this account of
his grilling about the alleged germ
warfare in Korea, which he said
began after the Reds found out
he had been a war correspondent
In Korea:
The first time he was ques-
toned, he got angry and shouted
back, That's a lie. There were
no germs dropped In Korea"
The Co IN m u list interroga-
tor pounded the desk and yelled,
"You lie! You lie! II you don't
tell the truth, wen kill you. Go
back 10 your cell and think a
while"
After long hours, Apologize con-
tinued, he began to confess to the
germ warfare but the Reds quickly
challenged: "You lie. Your con-
fession is different from the Amer
lean fliers."

City To Clear :
Playground Area

Plans for a city playground to
be operated between United and
South Streets next to the Mulberg's
parking lot were discussed by
city commissioners at their meet
ing Monday night.
Owners Of the lot in question
will not grant long-term lease
on the land, but they will, allow
the city to use it with an agree
ment to give 80 days notice to
vacate in the event it is decided
to put It to other use.
The commissioners feel that it
would be unwise to place per-
manent playground equipment on
a lot under an agreement of this
nature, but they agreed that the
lot could be cleared at city ex-
pense and smoothed off to make
it suitable for children.
City Manager Victor Lang was
instructed to allow such work on
the lot to proceed as he deemed
necessary, subject to the terms
Of the agreement.

MAN Confesses
1910 Staying

MCALESTER, Okla. R-Jack
Ray, 34-year-old liter and newly
confessed killer Of a Penn State
coed, was pictured today as a
campus Casanova with a third
grade education.
BY his own word, he was twice
murderer, perhaps three times;
a car thief and dope pusher, all
within a few short months of a,
whirlwind crime career that ended
IA years ago. !
This is the portrait of a man
whose confession Isl being studied
hopefully-if skeptically-by Off
GERS in State College, Pa, where
Rachel Taylor was beaten to death
March %, 1910.
Her bludgeoned and stabbed
body, stripped of nearly all cloth
ing, was found six miles from the
Penn State campus. Ray said he
fetched a letter from her bosom
as the prize of his crime.
The letter, according to his con.
fession, was written by his preg-
nant girl friend, threatening in a
fit of anger to expose his dope
selling to students.
He said he had nothing against
Miss Taylor. The 17-year-old Wild
wood, N, j., coed just happened
to be friend of his paramour
whose letter detailed his illegal
activities under the guise of col
lege boy selling sweaters. Actually,
he told a reporter, he was push
ing" heroin-selling about $50 cap
sules every three or four weeks
for $1.40 a capsule.
Rays confession, obtained by
Deputy Sheriff Abner Dear after
a behind-the-walls tip in the state
prison here, said he heat Miss
Taylor to death with a As pistol
the same one used in an Okla
homa shooting.
He ripped her clothing off until
he found the missive that threat
ened to destroy him hidden in her
braSsiere.

At the RIGHT Hand Of God

The Apostles Creed, which
Christians in all lands know by
heart. declares that Christ sit
teth at the right hand of God" BY
this the church has never meant
that Jesus is spending eternity sit
ting down on throne somewhere.
What we mean is that Christ is
not only alive on this small planet
but that he lives and works with
God Just as in ancient times when
a king held royal court. the seat
on his right was reserved for his
most trusted and most active per
sonal representative, so Christ
lives on in the presence of Eternal
Power today, in ways that the
heavenly glory hides from our
sight We dare not guess at all
what be plans and does; but the
Church is certain Of one thing: he
is praying for his people. He
ever liveth to make intercession
for us If it is comfort to know
Of the prayers Of any friend. how
much more to know that the liv-
ing Lord is praying for US! So on
Easter Sunday the church sings
how can she help it? The flowers
and the music are not to keep
alive the memory of one who once
upon time rose again, but are
in honor Of one who lives now
in and above the char ch and the
world
