FIFTEEN GERMAN WEDDINGS MISS BETTY HT11ER MR. EDWARD PLATT Miss Betty Hiller daughter of Mr. Hospital Junior Board to Elect New Officials Hero Montgomery Given Hero's Role By DOROTHY MANNERS HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 7 (INS) M-G-M never had the slightest intention of letting a rival get a crack at Robert Montgomery and all the wishful bids fell by the wayside when Bob waa sent for "They Were Expendable." It's good that one of Hollywood's real heroes comes back to the screen in a hero's role. Lieutenant Commander Montgomery enlisted in April 1941 and recently was placed on the inactive list.

Items should bring a hatful. Speaking on the Sixth War Loan, Arthur Treacher, famed movie butler, has a good idea. He leaves on a Pacific Coast tour auctioning his services as "the perfect butler." The highest War Bond buyer gets Arthur to "butle" in his home for an entire evening. Side-lines: Look for the Alice Faye-20th Century-Fox impasse to be settled any minute with everything sunshine and honey. It's Just been a little matter of finding the right story for Alice, who now says she has no intention of retiring from the screen.

One picture she did not want to make was "The Dolly Sisters," and that hurdle is safely passed. The Rev. Rolf McPher-son writes that no contract has been signed for a movie company to produce the life story of his mother, Aimee Semple McPherson.

TOMORROW it I I HIT ELEVENTH DAY Lancasters Deal Crippling Blow to Canal for Second Time Within Two Months By DOUGALD WERNER United Press Correspondent LONDON, Wednesday, Nov.

8 Strong Allied air fleets roared out toward Germany yesterday on the 11th consecutive day of a round-the-clock bombardment of Nazi war industry, and it was revealed that R. A. F. Lancasters dealt the vital Dortmund-Ems Canal its second crippling blow in less than two months lat Saturday night. There was no immediate indication of the targets of yesterday's fighter-escorted heavy bomber force.

which attacked only a few hours after R. A. F. Giants blasted Cob-lenz, Rhineland communications center, and pounded the Ruhr Rail way, focal point of Gelsenkirchen for the second time in a day. (A London broadcast quoted radio Berlin as saying that Italy-based Allied bombers were over Southern Austria, scene of a heavy bomber assault on oil and rail targets in the Vienna area Monday.) Disclosing Saturday's raid on the 170-mile long Dortmund-Ems Canal, the air ministry said the bombers smashed the inland waterway in ex actly the same place as in the Sept.

23 attack, bombing that section where the canal divides into two branches and is carried by viaducts over the Glane River. In contrast to the previous raid, when Lancasters breached the canal with jsix-ton "earthquake" bombs, the attacks used medium-sized explosives Saturday, concentrating them to smash the embankment. The raid followed disclosure by air reconnaissance that the Germans had repaired the break in one branch, pumping water into the canal so that it again could be used by barges. The other branch still' was empty, but the Germans had damned it so that the water would not escape. In the Saturday attack, the water rushed through one gap with such force as to carry a barge along with it, leaving it stranded well awav from the canal, use of which is necessary to the Germans for traffic between the Ruhr and the North Sea and eastern Germany.

(A dispatch in the Tockholm Tidningen, reported by the OWI, said that "after 45 days of air blockade of the Ruhr area, the situation there now is more than critical," and that food supplies to the region have ceased as a result of the bombings of the Dortmund-Ems Canal.) HITLER SCHEDULED FOR 'IMPORTANT' TALK By The United Press Adolf Hitler Is scheduled to make an "important' speech today on the anniversary of the abortive Nazi beer hall putsch of 1923, according to a Berlin dispatch to the Stockholm Tidningen, the OWI reported yesterday. The dispatch indicated Hitler might talk only to a cowrie of party leaders because "the general opinion within party circles is that a public speech would demand too comprehensive precautions."

Screen, Radio, ORDER TICKETS NOW I Stage Stage STALIN SLAP AT JAPAN WELCOMED IN LONDON LONDON, Nov. 7 (JP) Premier Stalin's reference to Japan as an aggressor nation in his Moscow speech yesterday was welcomed in some quarters here today as an indication of possible Russian aid in the war in the Far East when Germany is defeated. While official" sources refrained from comment, there appeared to be a feeling elsewhere that Stalin was setting the stage for some later Soviet move. Reflecting this impression. Lord Beaverbrook's Daily Express said editorially: "He (Stalin) ranges his great country beside Britain and America not only now, while the task of destroying Naziism in Europe is yet in hand, but in their future undertakings for the ending of aggression in the world.

"And his reference to Japan will bring another headache to the emperor's advisers." 53 COMMODITIES FREED OF IMPORT CONTROLS WASHINGTON, Nov. 7 Import controls were ordered lifted tonight from 53 commodities, includ ing iron ore, fir, pine, and 38 food items.
