cate life for Taylor's man also

this portrait of the large man

1t may not have been held
for release at this time of the
year to be fresh in mind at
Academy award voting time,
but it Suffices. 1t also demon
strates that an able director.
a label that fits Richard
Thorpe, need not be hampered
by cliches.
The plot Of The House of
the Seven Hawks" is a wearily
familiar one-man must stay
out of police clutches long
enough to prove himself inno-
cent of murder charge. Great
chunks of dialogue sound like
verbatim repeats of dialogue
you have heard too many times
already. But Mr.. Thorpe keeps
1t spinning along at a goodly
clip as he juggleS suspects with
admirable aplomb.
Robert Taylor is the fellow
who must stay jump ahead of
the law until he finds out
what's going on around here.
Captain OF q small boat for
hire in Britishh waters, he ar
riveS in Dutch port one day
with a deceased passenger. To
his considerable embarrassment
his late passenger turns out to
have been a man from The
Hague police. working on a big
case in England.
Holland seems to be full of
people vitally interested in this
affair. A Commissioner Van
Der Stoor of The Hague police
wants to know who did his
inspector in and who has
whatever it was he was bring
ing back to Holland with him.
One of those oily and urbane
criminal types gets inSistent
about this same thing. A girl
named Elsa, claiming to be the
inspectors daughter, comes
aboard Taylor's boat looking
for whatever the man was
carrying. The inspectors real
daughter turns up, demon
strating Elsa to be an impos-
ter. and also seeking what her
father was carrying. A grimy
little practitioner of the triple
cross gets into the act.
All the while Taylor has
what it is all these people want,
only he doesn't know what it
Is. At least he thinks he has it.
But it wouldn't be fair to dilute
Director Thorpe'S suspense by
going on with this. Besides.
this thing gets so complicated
that it would take until
Wednesday afternoon to set it
down in print.

The American Medical Asso-

some physicians are charging

What's fueling the business

The Federal Reserve Board
today supplied one answer:
Consumers entered 1859 bet

The board issued its annual
survey of consumer finances.
based on sampling interviews
across the country made by the
Survey Research Center of the
University of Michigan.
1t showed that in spite of the
recession, total personal income
last year rose by SO billion, or
2 per cent. Prices rose 3 per

in real income.

About 40 per cent of all fam

About 40 per cent of all

The others remained substan-
TALLY unchanged. More than
half OF the farmerS-54 per cent
had income increases, and "A

Auto Spending Dips
Consumer spending on auto
mobiles dropped sharply last
year, but expenditures for home
appliances and other durable
goods increased somewhat.
BY early 1859 slightly over 10
per cent of families reported
automobile ownership, and IL
per cent of all families owned
two or more cars compared with
10 per cent in early 1858.
Consumers favored lover
priced cars last year. AS a re-
suit, there was a drop in sales
OF eight = cylinder domestic
models and a doubling of sales
OF foreign makes. A lower av-
erage price per car was paid.
The board said that the re.

at least part of the year.

WEST CovINA, Calf. July
30 (AP). - Carole Tregoff,
snarled in what officials call a
web OF conflicting statements, is
accused with her lover Of MUIR
dering his socialite wife.
Police say the shapely ex-
model incriminated herself by
trying to shield her lover, DR..
Bernard Finch.
The 22-year-old redhead and
DR.. Finch are charged with
murder in the July Is shooting
Of the wealthy surgeons 33-
year-old wife. Barbara.
"Tripped Herself Up"
Miss Tregoff was arrested in
court yesterday shortly after
she sobbingly admitted at DR..
: Finch's preliminary hearing
that she loved him and had
sexual relations with the Al
: year-old surgeon.
The hearing continues today.
Deputy District Attorney
Fred N. Wichello said Miss
Tregoff "tripped herself up"
when she testified Tuesday
about a leather case found near
the Finch home after the shoot
ing. Investigators described the
case as a "do-it-yourself MUIR
der kit. 1t contained a hypo-
dermic needle, sedatives, bull
lets, knife and rope.
Miss Tregoff surprised au-
thoritieS by testifying she took
the case from her car at the
Finch home when DR.. Finch
asked her to get a flashlight.
She identified some of the con-
tents as household goods the
doctor bought for her and said
DR.. Finch carried weapons
whenever he had narcotics in
? his car.
"She read in the newspaper
, about the murder kit and de-
cided she had to account for
it." Mr.. Whichello said. In
previous questioning, the bag
was never mentioned.
