Gonzaga came from behind O

was in doubt until the last four

held a shaky 44-43 lead, but nine
points while the Riders were

Tom McCloskey led Gonzaga

1t is Director Henri Georges

that the spectators agony of

do balance, so neatly that the

"Diabolique" is the most
French French melodrama in
years. In succinct summary, it
relates how an attractive wife
and the other woman conspire
10 murder the man who domi-
mates their lives. That he is q
handsome, blue-ribbon cad de-
serving of the most elaborate
execution makes the project one
powerfully alluring to the spec
tator.
He can go along with every
attractive detail of the devious
murder plot. For having done
this, he discovers there is a
price to be paid, namely a horror
that this work Of justice will
be undone by the shopping law
In terms of the sympathy 1t
arouses. at least. this is the per-
feet crime. That anything should
mar 1t Is q powerful element Of
the suspense Of "Diabolique."
The setting Of the Clouzot
Aim is one Of those suburban
boarding schools outside Paris.
Here the wife and mistress,
wearying Of the degradation i'm
posed by their uncommonly
common man, decide to do away
with him. The formers enthu-
siasm for the project is diluted
by the fact that she Is religious.
Her scruples and lack Of natural
talent for murder are both over

and then submerged in q well
filled bathtub. Afterward, he is
packed in an oversize laundry
hamper, taken back and dumped
into the school swimming pool.
For a crime that could scarcely
fail to pay its perpetrators. this
one begins to look almost at
once like q bad investment,
especially to the dead mans
widow who suffers from q weak
heart.
In addition to the shock Of
