If that comes about, Columbia

The first encounter between

Columbia will have to 60 all

Silver Spring took first-half
honors with a 80 mark and
Melito won five without a loss.
Clifford was 80. Melito had a

Julie is the more winning for
being used by Author-Director
William Fairchild as a symbol
of what happens when a member

mind. This can be a funny
thing, indeed. and the film
makes intelligent and heart
warming use of it.

jules story begins when she
decides that a girls proper place
on Coronation Day is at the gates
of Buckingham Palace. Needing
an escort, she involves her play
mate. John, in the project. He.
a couple of years older. is the
type who can take or leave a
coronation but. being gallant, he
cannot leave a Julie to her own
devices.
Willy-nilly. he joins jules ad-
venture in the role of male seek
ing to impose sanity upon an
experience that becomes steadily
more irrational. Before it is over,
Julie has become a trial not
merely to John, but to a Field
Marshal, Scotland Yard, q few
municipal police departments, a
Sergeant of the Queens palace
guard, and even a golden-hearted
London street walker.
This is quite an army for so
small a girl to command but
Julie drives it to victory when
from her perch on the palace
gates she sees the Queen, still
adorned by her crown as jules
type knows a queen must be.
Every whimsical turn of it is
brought of perfectly by Director
Fairchild and his cast. Leading
the latter group are another pair

formers who apparently overrun

Mitchell finally got permission
TO make a test on a captured
German cruiser and battleship.

down aviation reacted against
him. He lost his temporary
