And il ver young crook got no fun out his kgal activities, it's John Dall wrhose kre of guns, but hatred of tilling, pets him into a sorry predicament on the Stanton screen. Of cotrse. it may be argued that MacKirJay Kan tor's gun-crazy hero found seme sort of compensation in romance. For pert Peggy Cummins, camiTal sharpshooter, gees along for the chase and despite all the FUcfcups and the necessity for eluding the law, they love each other nht up to the bitter end. PEGGY ISXT SO SHY Erm bo.

the pair whose entire married life is spent behind guns and on the lam, never has much chance to enjoy the loot. Besides, while Peggy isnt at all averse to fcioodshed and finally does knock off couple of people, John keeps -vorryinj himself into a state of jitters about the day when, perhaps, he w-Zl have to plug somebody. That day coir.es all right, too, after nearly an hour-and-a-half of roaring across xhe country leaving a wide criminal trail behind them. Oespite Kantor's attempt to explain ir boy's character on psychopathic frounds, the yarn's logic is wide open to question. And certainly with an aroused nation, including the FBI, on the lookout for the perpetrators of this mkn-and-a-girl crime wave, it's a bit hard to accept the with which they get jobs in the largrc meat packing plant where they piZn off their biggest robbery.

DIRECTION IS FAST However. Joseph H. Lewis's direction is fast enough most of the time to keep audiences too busy to bother about any of that, and the performances are fine. Dall is particularly good as the boy who only feels important with a gun in his x-snds, and Miss Cummins, a pleasant surprise histrionically as the girl who doesnt give a hoot about anything except John, money and not citing: caught. Supporting roles are well played, too, with Berry Krueger, shady carnival boss and Peggy's previous partner in crime; Anabel Shaw, DsSs law-abiding sister; Nedrick "Young and Trevor Bardette, his friends who eventually and regretfully put an end to his criminal carter.

6, 1948. The U. S. Supreme Court refused to review the lower court decision and the film distributors were ordered to pay heavy damages for refusing to license their best pictures for first-run showing by an independent operator. The District Court also issued an injunction against the film companies requiring them to give Goldman an opportunity to bid for pictures for first runs.

In Goldman's original suit he asked a total of 1,350,000 in damages for the period between November, 1940, and December, 1942. At that time the court held that the Erlanger would have made $125,000 if it had been licensed to show best pictures first-run. Then, acting under the Sherman Act, the damage award was trebled.

With a grace and beauty suited for the tragi; role of "Butterfly" she brought personal charm along with a keen sense of Oriental drama that edde-i much to the pleasure of the perf rmance. FREDERICKS IN TENOR ROLE Her voice, though not of thrilling power, is engagingly musical in croaliry. She improved as the opera progressed, exhibiting more flexibility of tone with a good sense of cLramstic accent and lyrical line. Tt-e poignant "Love Duet" of Act I and the tender "Flower Duet" were artistically handled with Lillian Marchetto as a very capable Suzuki.

Waiter Fredericks, young American tenor, appeared as lieutenant Pitenon and acquitted himself very well indeed. His voice was clear and lyric and he rose to Puccini's ehmaxes with grace and power.
