New Theory Revealed
In Shotgun Death
|Of Government Girl

A new version Of how %
year-old Government girl acci-
dentally killed herself in her
Arlington Towers Apartment last
month was disclosed last night.
In q speech prepared for de-
livery over Station WARL at 5
pm. today. Arlington Common
Wealth's Attorney william j.
Hassan reviewed the facts of the
shooting of Miss Sallie Wood on
December l3.
Police have said thai Miss
Wood. while wrapping Christmas
packages. knocked against q
loaded l2-gauge shotgun laying
on a nearby table. It was the
theory that the gun bounced
against a wall. and that the inn
pact was enough to cause the
gun to fire.
Mr.. Hassen said the gun had q
large tag about the size Of q
business envelope attached to its
trigger.
"The bullet hole in the body. !"
he said, was so located as to
indicate that. kneeling on the
floor. she had reached back and
grabbed the barrel Of the gun
and pulled it towards her, and
that articles on top Of the table
had caught the envelope at
tached to the trigger ana dis
charged the gun.
He said tests showed that art
icles on the table and resting
on the tag attached to the trig-
ger were sufficient. when the gun
was pulled forward. to exert the
pressure necessary to discharge
the gun.
Questioned about the new ver-
sion, Detective Capt. Dudley H.
Rector of the Arlington Police
said he was in agreement. He
said he had revised his earlier
theories because Of the angle at
which the shot entered the body.

"The Far Country" new screen
feature at the Capitol, is an
other of those frontier sagas
that digs a little deeper into
human nature than the trigger
fingers of its hero and villain.
Not too deep. understand, but
enough to justify the presence
in the key role Of James Stewart.
a star who feels moviegoers
should not only have shooting
but an idea of, what it is all
about. This elevates 1.-THE Far
Country" a notch above routine
screen fare If not to the level
|. of the specials through which
he and several others have shot
their way.
Much more useful in this re-
spect is the photography of the
Capitol's film. This has the true
grandeur of the northwest land
scape. including Alaska, and the
cast is hard put to hold its own
against the scenery.
Borden Chase wrote the
sereenplay which stars Stewart
and his formula is. one Holly
wood has found it can trust.
His heroes are not virtuous be-
yond belief and his heroines are
not virtuous up to it. They are
just people who are no better or
worse than their environment
which is as treacherous as it is
pretty.
The period of the film is 1896,
its setting the Alaska gold rush.
Stewart plays loner on this
scene, a quiet, tough Westerner
out to get his stake without ref
erence to either the do-gooders
or do-badders. He takes his eye
off this goal for the first time
when he encounters Ruth Ro-
man. Well he might. too, con-
sidering not merely her eye
appeal but a generosity which in
spires her to hide him in her bed
against the pursuing Seattle
cops.
Up in the Alaska gold country,
Skagway and Dawson, Stewart
meets much nicer girl, Corinne
Calvet. and the meanest human
in that territory in the person of
John McIntire. These are types
that have an effect on even so
impervious character as Stew
art who. in the end, Is bound to
kill those who need it, give Miss
Roman a kiss of adieu as she
lies in the throes of death, and
reward Miss Calvet as she de-
serves.
All these things happen in the
proper order and in the course
of ticking them off, Director An
thony Mann keeps everybody
busily in motion.

Sol Hurok. who deals exclu-
sively in the crown jewels Of
art, has imported his first mo-
ton picture in Aida" which
opened yesterday at the Play
house theater.
Clearly there is no relaxing
of the Hurok standard of taste
in this Italian production. Cine
rnatically, it is great aida
produced with the love and pride
italy reserves for great music
and with an extravaganza that
we'll might make Hollywood
blink.
It deserves to go far-as Mr..
Hurok no doubt intends to see
that it shall-in populariZing a
classic art form that has been
lately reserved for the addicts.
Regrettably perhaps in some
quarters, this happy effect may
be due less to the fact that
"Aida" is beautiful music beau
tifully sung than to the circum-
stance that it is ideal cinema
plot material. 1t is about a
dusky. fiery princess reduced to
slavery who has the misfortune
to fall in love with the man her
royal mistress also desires.
The films Italian producers.
although second to none in their
admiration for great singers,
have taken no chances on let
ting them act this film version OF
Verdi's passionate opera. They
have cast a stunning Italian act
ress of 10, Sophia Loren, in the
title role; cool, stately Cana
dian one as the Princess AM
neris: and a handsome. muscu-
lar young Italian as the Radames
who completes the triangle.
While these play the beset-
ting passions of "Aida's" prin-
cipal figures, the great contem-
porary voices of italian opera
take equally impressive care OF
the sound track. AS clubbing
(what a word to use in connec-
ton with "AidaD jobs go, in
finite technical pains have been
taken with this one but not to
the complete concealment OF the
trick.
Previous efforts to film opera,
In black and white instead Of
the spectacular colors of aida"
have been of, value to the pro-
ducers of the Playhouse film.
There is an awareness here OF
the range, or scope, of the
camera and of the hard-earned
lesson that failure to use it is
woefully defeating. Accordingly,
the violence in the natures of
Verdi's people and their situa-
ton has area in which to move.
Aida, Amneris, Radames and
the others have space-gardens.
battlefields, dungeons, palace
halls, etc.-in which to stretch
their tormented emotions. Their
degree of freedom is by no
means that given to performers
in Glass B horse opera, but it
is far greater than that hereto
fore offered characters in the
opera called grand"
So, for once on film great
music provides not merely an
ample but beautiful narrative
expression of the action. This,
together with the use of an &C
tress the shape and beauty of
Miss Loren, and such others as
Lois Maxwell as Amneris and
Luciano Della Maria as Radames,
may encourage further cinema
forays into the highest musical
drama.
