BANQUET And Parly Facilities Accommodating up to 200 KENT MANOR DuPont Hit war Wilm. 7197 Film and Theatre Gossip By HELEN BARRETT -Motion pictures as a medium for imparting: lasting knowledge are becoming more and more recognized as their use is daily increased in schools, colleges, and church schools. In fact films have become the mcdera vital teaching tool but they are only aids, not teachers, and never will make "displaced persons" out of teachers or scrap heaps of books. Rather they bring additional vital resources to the instructor for enriching the classroom study. It is easy to see how this can be accomplished.

If you are of an other generation or two, on the older side, you will recall that it perhaps was with difficulty that you learned history from reading dry dates and acts, or geography from a printed "page. Movies bring these subjects be fore your eyes in a vivid manner easily remembered, instead, of the mental imageries you were compelled to absorb id the old days. So gradually the motion picture has added a new role besides entertain ment education. David Wolfe, veteran light opera performer and little theater actcr, will make his film debut in an important supporting role in "Undercover Man," in which Glenn Ford is starred. Mr.

Wolfe will play the part of a- Treasury Department agent working under Mr. Ford. Mr. Wolfe performed for a full season under his own name, Herman Wald-man, with the St. Louis Civic Opera Company.

He has done little theatre work at the Hunterdon Hills Playhouse, New Jersey, at the Berkshire Playhouse at Stockbridge, and various little in Southern California. Nine RKO Radio attractions are in the process of editing. They are: "Good Sam," "The Window," "The Boy With Green Hair," "The Lcng Denial," "Blood on the Moon," "Bodyguard," "Variety Time," "Indian Agent," and "Mr. Joseph Ycung of Africa." Among those i starred Gary Conner Ann Sheridan, Maureen Bel Geddes, Pat Brien, KODen Ryan, Melvyn Douglas, Robert Preston, Lawrence Tierney, Jack Paar, and Gloria Grahame.

The accident occurred on French between Second and Third Streets. Defense Asks Dismissal David B. Coxe, counsel for Kent, made two attempts to have all charges dismissed, asserting that the investigation did not support the charges. The general testimony involved largely the position of the various cars involved in the acci dent and just where the officers were standing when struck.

Kent admitted being the driver of the car, testified that he saw a car which the ponce had stopped on French Street because it was going the wrong direction on the one-way street but said he did not see the officers and struck them only when he was forced to swerve his car to avoid being struck by another car which passed him.
