Lost Times -Tonight Shows 7:00 4 9M IREVORTON Majestic "The Lonesome Trail" and "Detour" Provide Interesting Double Entertainment There are some film cowboys who are just the "reel" thing, and when they are off the screen dont go near the wide open spaces or horses. But nothing like that can be written about Lee "Lasses" White, featured as star Jimmy Wakely's saddle pal in Monogram western.

The Lonesome Trail," now at the Majestic Theatre. Lasses loves to camp out between pictures and his agent often has trouble keeping him in town for personal appearances. The cowboy comic gets a kick out of pitching a tent under the twinkling stars and preparing a snack over a camp fire. White didn't learn about the virtues of the outdoor life from a horse opera script, but rather from his younger days on his dad's Texas ranch. The peculiar fact is that In those days, Lee detested ranch life and finally left to join up with a minstrel show.

For more than 20 years he was one of the leading minstrel men in the country. However, now he has changed his mind about ranch atmosphere and wouldn't be without it. Maybe it's because in these days he doesn't have to pitch hay like he used to have to do for his dad. All Lasses does is fish all day and relax watching the herds in the field. mm w.

Producer Charles Brackeit has created a picture that, for its integrity and realism, has never been equaled. The photography by John Seitz is also daringly original. For who thought of Ray Milland as a very handsome man with a flair for drawing room comedy, here is something to knock the pins from under them.

His performance is nothing short of remarkable. Don Birnam emerges as one of the most vivid characterizations ever filmed. Milland. the handsome lover of the screen, is now also Milland, the actor. Also worthy of high praise is lovely Jane Wyman who until now has mostly been associated with frothy entertainment.

She turns in a truly splendid performance as the young woman hose devotion to Milland is unwavering. Milland's brother in the film is played by Phillip Terry, who carries off the part unusually well. The dark brunette beauty, Doris Dowling, is an up-and-coming screen siren movie-goers will see more and more of in the future. She wears tight-fitting black dresses and singer is in France with the Infantry. Capitol HE AMAZING Louella Parsons saysf 'One of the greatest pic- Victoria Jane Wyman Appears in "The Lost Weekend," New Drama Starring Ray Milland "The Lost Weekend." a Paramount picture which bowed in at the Victoria Theatre today, is something revolutionary in motion picture history.

Never before have Hollywood moguls, so bent on looking at life through rose-colored glasses, ever had the courage to bring such a realistic study of emotional anguish to the screen. Ray Milland is co-starred with Jane Wyman while Phillip Terry. Howard da Silva and Doris Dowling head a exceptionally competent cast. "The Lost Weekend," adapted from Charles Jackson's famous bestseller of the same name, is the story of five excruciating days and nights in the life of Don Birnam, a young man who can no longer call his soul his own. Though sensitive, intelligent and Irresistibly charming, chronic alcoholism breaks his spirit by slow, torturous degrees.

Zachary Scott Co-stars With Faye Emerson in "Danger Signal," Current Drama Faye Emerson received an emphatic shock when she first met Zachary Scott, with whom she co-stars in "Danger Signal," now at the Capitol Theatre. "I remember," she recalls, "when I first saw him. It was on the Warner lot, right after he had oome out from New York. "I've often wondered just what he though of me because my first reaction was to stare at him.

And stare I did! But I couldn't help it. He looked so much like my dad used to look when was a little girl. It was something of a shock, and I could hardly take my eyes off him." That being the case, Faye's father must have been a handsome young IK fav Kl ROCKS THE SCREEN WITH ITS DARING!
