dog CRed Buttons. With the
loan expert, he gets a lady press
agent (Rhonda Fleming) /,
which distresses him. Mature
just doesn't think girls are
for press agentry. Something,
maybe. but not press agentry.
So. the snarling big unhappy
family takes to the road, COM
plete with maniac in the hire
of a rival circus owner. A lion
is loosed from its cage to ter
rorize a press party. is re-
captured before getting TO the
hors d'oeuvres. Somebody sets
the hay on fire. A rainy spell
sets in with floods and nobody
goes to the circus.
Mature decides to go east
where it is dry and where his
high wire star Colbert Roland)
can walk across Niagara Falls
and get a lot of publicity. On
the way there the first Sec
ton of the train is wrecked and
the wire walkers wife adele
Mara) is killed. He is goaded
into taking his walk anyhow.
Once Niagara is conquered,
Mature plans to invade New
York City ahead of the rival
circus so he can pick up a
bundle and say to the banks
man with the mortgage, I'm
hand that circus. you cad" So
what does he run into in New
York? A transportation strike,
that's what.
While all of this and more
is going on, some suspense
arises over what the uniden-
titled maniac will do next and
to whom. Mr.. Allen has en-
couraged this by hiring Vincent
Price as ringmaSter and Peter
LORE as a clown. AS every NOV
iegoer knows, either Mr.. Price
or Mr.. LORE could turn out at
any minute to be a maniacal
assassin.
LORE, incidentally. makes an
engaging clown and the ring
master role is as suitable a one
as Mr.. Price ever had. Some
competent others are involved
in this affair, but they suffer
the fate of most actors in big
spectacle movies. They seem
engulfed and afraid to look
over their shoulders for fear
that something might be gain
ing on them.
Red Buttons is one of these,
conducting himself competent
ly in a straight, non-comic
role. Kathryn Grant is an
other, pretty and graceful as
the circus owners sister, who
just has to do a trapeZe act
before she settles down in
Scarsdale or someplace. Ro-
land plays the wire walker with
dignity. David Nelson is on
hand, too, to perform agree
ably if not precisely with a
flourish. Mature and Miss
Fleming argue loudly, but
they're hardly center-ring
material.
The young and the young
in-mind ought to enjoy the
Uptown's film for its splash
and spectacle without a whim-
per about its plot. The young
in-heart will have to love the
circus madly not to be aged in
body and soul by the interrupt
tons to the big top fun.

NTow look what the ladies are doing They are tax
In ing hand in running that Eighth Wonder of
the World - the American supermarket. Yes, in
deed! From Connecticut to California management
is inviting the women into partnership"
Supermarkets have been getting bigger and bigger,
more efficient, more mechanical, but also something
seemed lacking. Came vague little grumblings
gardng the impersonal treatment of shoppers. Mer-
chants had considered just everything except one
thing: Women prize their individuality above all
else, and are used to personal recognition while
shopping for groceries.
Smart operators sensed need to make their
dehumanized machines feel the way grocery stores
used to feel They face-lifted interiors, softened
lighting provided romantic music, added plant life
and parakeets. Agood beginning but. -.
Each spring at the annual meeting of the super
market merchants every man had a theory on what
Women Really Want
Then, one day, it occurred to Joseph p Mott, re-
cent past president of the Super Market Institute
Inc. and owner of chain of FIVE Connecticut stores,
that there was simple way to find out.
Lets go ask them, he said to his chains execu-
tive committee.
The asking started at luncheon at Carvilles,
a restaurant in Wilson, Conn.,, at a time when
Mr. Mott was planning his newest and largest unit
for the wilson Windsor suburb of West Hartford.
Fourteen women came all leaders of civic activities,
women with the ability to get things done. The
Town Manager had helped friend Mott get ''the
girls together. Mott popped the question between
the fried clam plate and the ice cream puff. ''WouId
you ladies be sciing TO help plan your super
market? HOsC about sCOrking sCith
toners GduisOry bOard?'' FIGttered, interested
-- the GnssOer scas "Yes!''
Then someone proposed that another meeting be
called, inviting the President and Officers of the
various womens organizations. The Mott executives
Evening star., 1959-05-24

agreed but we're dubious of turnout. How wrong
can men be? This time came l28 women represent
ing 10 organizations armed with new, clever ideas.
In two hours and FIVE minutes these women had
stated how they wanted their market to be, from
entrance to exit.
Now the new Customers Relation Panel went to
work in earnest to Gull these few hundred comments.
Some things the women wanted the store couldn't
do, but the reasons why were openly discussed =
no hedging 1t might add labor cost which in turn
could add to food costs. At the final counting they
had listed % things they wanted most They got
them -e every one! Some appear on opposite page.
Top request: Feeling Of intimacy
Out of meeting with ''the girls" the Mott execu-
tives made surprising discoveries regarding women
and their marketing desires Pusher more than
anything else wants feeling of intimacy which to-
day is becoming almost obsolete. She approves of
mechanism. She takes in her stride those gravity
feeding food shelves, the electronic-eye doorman,
even few robot clerks. "But good gracious" said
the Mott panel, "let's have few of the aesh-and-
blood kind too. Don't let the whole place go click
click like an assembly line.
Need market be like hospital = so antiseptic
it is odorless? Food smells are Jolly good smells!
The women approve smooth efficiency but not to
the point of monotony. little sweet disorder adds
nominees.
Their very own market must be place to meet
friends. They encourage little stop spots to enjoy
bottle of pop, maybe cup of coffee, Ito sip while
we talk" Above all else, this Connecticut group
wanted somebody there with welcome smile,
what pretty hat!'' 'How's the new car doing?''
In fact, several somebodes would be nice, Just to
say hello.
A discovery, which has encouraged other super
markets to try the Mott panel, is woman's pleasure
in having her own little part in things.
