With two such big names as Harriet Hoctor and Mitzi Gren as the take off point the management has organized its pre. sentation with a sure taste of tuning" of scenic effect and of variety that serves as eloquent backdrop for the delightful cameos of entertainment presented by its two stars.

Miss Hoctor, for instance, has been surrounded by a ballet which presents a most glamorous, most handsome and most original feather dance.

Marguerite in nut nninii rvni 11110 uuauh tAnLAma DOUBLE-STEM TURN Tecamque Is Important, Harvard Man Shows By NORWOOD COX When you have sufficiently mas tered the straight snow-plow run ning described last week, so as to be able to execute it with comparative ease on a fairly steep slope, you will then be ready to begin learning the first phase of ski turning, or double stem turn. This is done in the fol lowing manner; Start down a moderate slope in straight snow-plow position. That is, knocking and bending the knees. press the heels out. so that the backs of the skis run about four or five feet apart, while the points of the skis remain very close together, forrring the snow-plow as previously de scribed.

To begin a turn to the left, edse the right ski more than the left one. and at the same time shift much more of your weight to the right ski than to the left, turning the arms and shoulders to the left. Bend the right knee somewhat more than the left This will enable you to better put your weight onto the richt ski. At first, practice a single turn to a stop, first to one side, then to the other. When you feel that they are going fairly well as individual turns, practice linking tnem without stop ping as you coast downhill.

Im portant points to bear in mind with the snow-plow turn are: 1. Keep the points close tosether and level with each other all the time. A common mistake the be- ginner makes is to let the inside of the turn ski lag behind. 2. Edge well with the outside nf Will Greet Contestants Over Week-End By RICHARD D.

MURRAY THIS WEEK'S GODT FORE For the numerous ski schools throughout New England ski-land that are teaching New Englanders to control their skis and thereby cutting down the percentage of accidents. Snow Drifts By DELFHINE CARPENTER Associate Editor The Ski Bulletin Peggy Howes of Cambridge will tour- to foreign ski resorts shortly. We understand that Kitzbuehl is on the itinerary. Boston's Elliott Wadsworth will Boon be in competition, if he keeps up his serious practice. He will be going back to Rutland, for more instruction this week-end.

Ann R. Briggs, formerly of Pinckney st. and the Bouve School, is now overcoming her homesickness for New England with skiing in the Poconos. She is working in an East Stroudsberg, doctor's office. A letter from Kay Hinckley was postmarked Indianapolis.

What is a good skier going to do there? Robert and Lorraine Wilson have been doing their early season skiing on Mt. Hood, near their home in Melrose, while father and mother Wilson go tobogganing. Robert Coit of Cambridge is doing his M. S. R.

committee work during lunch hours. Jacques Titeux, the French Army skier who has been in Boston this Winter studying insurance, said two weeks ago that he was leaving right away for New Orleans, but he is still in Boston. Tossibly the skiing is better. Patsy Fuller has a ski-knee in the Plymouth, N. Hospital.

Bob Livermore Sr. beat Bob Livermore Jr. in the informal night slalom dual meet (hoch-alte), also at Plymouth, last Saturday evening. Sam Lapham of Boston did New Hampshire skiing last week-end. The Bavarian ski team arrives in New York this week.

The German Ski Club of New York will give them a big reception. Dick Penticost, Alf Bcrle and Bill Altcnburg have been Brae Burn lighted slope skiing after work these evenings. Lindsy Dexter of Beacon st. will go to New York State to ski this week-end. And last week-end Blanche K.

Richardson was skiing at Ticonderoga, N. Y. There were two girls with snowshoes on last week's snow train, and their skiing friends teased them so much that they hid in the station until the crowd thinned out. Jean Bowman of Bronxville, N. attended a Saturday wedding and skied at Dunbarton, N.

on Sunday. Elizabeth Boone will finish off her mid-year examinations with a week of skiing. Mary Tmctor was on Frontenac trail Saturday. "Reddy" Stevenson of the North Shore is so intent on improving her technique that she has no time to answer a yodel on a trail. Fred Nachbauer of Gilford, N.

came to Boston in the midst of his Ekiing business' yesterday. There is in this country a Baron Jesor c.e Rozner, coach of the Hun garian Olympic ski team, and head of the Continental Ski School at Kitzbuhel. He was skiing at Pitts-field last Sunday. More may be heard of him later. Roger Merrill and Dana Hinckley, both White Mules, drove through all the intervening qualities of snow to Mt.

Washington last week-end, where they skied on the Wildcat and Sherburne trails and such slopes as looked inviting to them. They were not too enthusiastic about the snow, but could always have a swell time anyway. NEXT SUNDAY JANUARY 23 1 HOUND TRIP Lv. Korih Sitation. Reading Larcnr Haverhill Exetor.

most every film fan in "Hollywood Hotel," although it is highly probable that there are few persons who will like everything in the picture, yesterdays audience at the Metropolitan couldn't get enough of the swing music played by the Benny Goodman band, and the kids in the theatre applauded as wildly as if there idol, Mr. Goodman, were right on the stage in person. On the other hand, there were many persons who seemed to enjoy the strains of "Dark Eyes" as played by Raymond Paige and his musi cians. Dick Powell has his admirers and for them Dick has numerous songs sung in the Powell croon, such as "I'm Like a Fish Otit of Water." "Silhouetted in the Moonlight" and "Let That Be a Lesson to You." Rosemary and Lola Lane play opposite him. Rosemary is the waitress who looks like a film star, and Lola is the star herself.

Allyn Joslyn, who pla. the role of a cynical studio press agent, probably gives the most outstanding performance in the picture, although the role is comparatively unimportant. Hugh Herbert goes in for waggish comedy the crazy-antics sort; the late Ted Healey is amusing as an impecunious manager, and Edgar Kennedy plays a short-tem pered and always-baited hotdog concessionnaire. Johnny Davis is lively and musical as a member of the Benny Goodman band, and such well-known radio entertainers as Ken Niles, Jerrv Cooper. Duane Thompron and Frances Langford perform most creditably.

After all. "Hollywood Hotel" Is an elaborately staged musical revue, and as audiences at stage revues do not care for every single act is exactly what will happen to audiences who see this film. There must be favorites who merit ap plause from one group, while other entertainers appeal to quite a dif ferent group. You pay your money and you take your choice. Whatever happens, somebody is laughing all the time, and that makes the picture a box-office hit.

What plot there is concerns the efforts of a young saxophone player and singer to become a film star. In the stage revue Georges and Jalna are the stars, and this graceful couple perform beautiful exam ples of the art of Terpsichore. They are especially effective in the thrill- ng hnale, called the Temptation Kaleidoscope, which is a masterly piece of stage production and lighting. Jack Major whistling, Kentucky stories and rendition of "The Last Round-Up" prove popular with the udience, as do the Eight Virgin ians, a group of singers who were brought back to the Metropolitan because so many patrons asked to hear them again. Mirth and Mack, who dance and impersonate Groucho Marx and Jimmy Durante, are original and funny.

The Three Reddingtons put on a lively and sparkling trampoline act. Snow Trains The B. M. will run trains to 15 different points in New Hampshire, and Sunday trains to most of the ski centers. The B.

M. Sunday trains will go to the Eastern Slopes region of New Hampshire, which includes Conway, North Conway, Intervale, Bartlett, Jackson, and the "scenic snow cruise" on Sunday goes to Fabyan, N. through Crawford Notch. The snow train will serve for the Conway Ski Club's second annual Winter Carnival, also stopping at Exeter, N. for the dog races.

Both trains leave the North Station at 8 o'clock. The Boston Albany Railroad's "Winter bportsman will go to Becket, the new Winter sports area of the Berkshires. This new ski area is known as the Hylawn Winter Sports Grounds and has several well marked trails as well as many long, open practice slopes The train leaves South Station at 8:35 a. making stops at Trinity Place, Newtonville and Wellesley and the schedule has been arranged to allow more than five hours of sport, The trails were designed by Birger Torriesson. member of the 1936 American Olympic ski team.

"Hays' Hazard" a natural slalom trail is approximately 500 yards long, and the skier may shoot downward, cross from this trail through a wide opening and reach another trail which has the questionable title of "The Fifty-Fifty Break."

ter Hale girls, in trailing whitg gowns, manipulate the feathers in weaving, revolving patterns of loVe liness, evoking pictures of foamiri surf and shimmering clouds that defy description. And then after a climax, enters Miss Hoctor a vision of loveliness, as dainty as she ii skillful. Here is a toe dancer who effects the transition from points to heels with grace instead of that fleeting awkwardness so gnerally evident. And when she return some acts later to do a modern bal-let to the rhythms of Duke Ellington's "Mood Indigo," the audience bursts into spontaneous applause. The saucy tambourine hat, the artfully designed black velvet gown, are only further credit to Miss Hoc-tor's sure sense of the artistic.

And Miss Mitzi Green, grown to luscious maidenhood, proves the talent of her early screen days hai matured along with her figure. Now a poised young woman endowed with a rich and surprisingly well, trained voice, she richly earns her repeated curtain calls. Her vocal renditions include song successes from "Babe in Arms," and her elo-quently dramatized version of "That Old Feeling" as she herself would sing it, as George Arliss would sing it, and as Fannie Brice would sins it. She concludes with "The Lady Is a Tramp," the number that has brought her deserved Broadway stardom. Then there is Gil Lamb, dancing comedian who plays a harmonica "like a fool," but with a skill that belies his antics.

His comic steps also draw applause and his assistant brings down the house with some scorching harmonica rhythms. Finally there is the amazingly talented acrobatic dance team of Ray and Geraldine, two girls whose twirls, hand-balancing and somersaults are completely new to Boston. And then more words of praise for those handsome dancers, the Chester Hale girls, whose opening number, "Streamline Symphony." and finale production, "Girls in Uniform," are as ingeniously devised as they are deftly executed. "I Met My Love Again," from the novel, "Summer Lightning," by Aliens Corliss. Screen play by David Hertz.

The cast: Julie Joan Brnnett Ives Henry Fonria Aunt William Dame May Whitty Michael Alan Marhal Brenda Louise Plait Tonv Baxter Budgp Tim Holt Mrs Towner Dorothy Sticknpv Carol Florence lake Michael (daughter) Genee Hall Agatha Alice Cavenna This is exclusively a drama of young love. It is sentimental and it is of occasion heroic. It tells cf a girl who was lured from her enag'ment to a straight-laced but promising young Vermonter by a smooth and glib New York writing man with a weakness for parties and good red wine.

It further tells that when he was accidentally killed in a mock duel, she evenfu- ally found love anew by the side of her sweetheart of school days. But this barf outline does not do the story nor the acting full justice. Henry Fonda and Miss Joan Bennett do splendidly by their roles, as does Alc-i Marshal as the too-caddish interloper. The chief weak ness of the film is not the characters, not the acting, not even the direction, but the script. This iJ good but not excellent screen entertainment.

A dramatic edition of "March of Time" is also on the bill. RKOBOSTON THEATRE "The Black Doll" "Wise Girl" "The Black Doll," a Crime Club production of New Universal Pictures; produced by Irving Starr, directed by Otis Garrett, adapted from William E.

With charming Nan Grey, harassed and bumptius Edgar Kennedy and the youthful sleuth, Donald Woods as the three leading characters; the sinister plot of "The Blade Doll" is made less cnilhng. It is nevertheless thrilling and intriguing for movie-going detectives. The story from Crime Cluo novel tells how a cruel and clever mine operator and fir.anxier, Kelson Rood (C.

Henry Gordon), nnds a "black doll" on his desk. He knows it is a sign of impending vengeance for his slaying of a partner after the discovery of the "Black Doll mine early in his career.

The other feature on the bill i' "Wise Girl." starring Miriam Hopkins and Ray Milland along witn fine supporting cast. The plot not at all new, but there are enough original twists to make thoroughly enjoyable. It concerns a wealthy girl who deliberately "goes Bohemian" and finds not a little fun in it. TREMONT TEMLE "Klart Till Drabbning" An amusing Swedish "Klart Till Drabbning." is at Tre-mont Temple for the remainder or the week. In English the title "Ready for Action," and the cast includes many well known Swedish picture celebrities, such as John Precht, Weyler Hildebrand.

Rum Weijden, Ka Nerell, Thor Modeea and Ake Soderblom. The program shows three Swedish travel films, nf which the scenes or Gothenburg are particularly inter Intense cold weather that estab lished an unbreakable cruet beneath powder conditions in many sections of New England promised ideal skiing conditions over the week-end. Rising temperatures late yesterday afternoon promised to make outdocr conditions more pleasant for the multitude, but failed to alter the surface of light, fluffy mow now prevailing throughout the north- land. Tops this week-end in local fields is the annual Mt. Hood Winter Carnival event, at which it has been conservatively estimated 50,000 spectators will attend.

Tomorrow afternoon the scholastic ski competi tion will draw 250 entries from rchools in Newton. Watertown. Reading. Gloucester. Winchester, Lynn, Melrose, Needham, Medford, Rindge Tech, Boston English and Arlington.

A hockey game between Boston College and the Boston Olympics "will vie for interest during the afternoon.

The tow is 600 feet long and is located on Forbes Hill, Quincy. siders skiing a sport and a diversion for enjoyment, his ideas have brought about the tremendous interest in skiing today. His first idea was downhill racing, the first in the country, on the carriage road on Mousilaukee.

Next he decided to combine the downhill with the slalom, and finally an idea for a downhill women's race was furnished, resulting in many women's races this year. In the early days he got together w'ith the Dartmouth skiers and the first downhill race between two factions resulted, with Charlie Proctor and Johnny Carlton being prominent among the participants. Today, because of his knowledge of skiers, he is a member of the classification committee of the United States Eastern Amateur Ski Association and is probably one of the best informed as to the ability of any amateur, ckier who dons the hickory boards. Although his legs keeps him from racing as a member of the club team, he enters the slalom races. The result of hi? amateur skiing advancement ideas have resulted in the triangular rivalry which exists among teams representing the Dartmouth Outing Club, the Red Birds of Montreal and the Ski Club Hochgebirge.

Keep both skis well in snow- plow position throughout the turn. 4.

Shoulders turned toward the direction you are turning. The next turn to learn after snow- plow is known as the straight stem. This turn is done while skiing across the hill at a traverse, rather than straight down, as was the case with the snow-plow. Before describing the turn I will give a few hints on how to run across the hill on a traverse. Alwavs ski with the uphill ski (ski farthest up the hill) leading the downhill ski.

The uphill ski should be from six incnes to a foot ahead of the down- hill ski. The downhill ski should i mr2e than the uphi11 away frm the hill. Most falls while traversing a slope are due to leanine into the hill, causing the skis to slide out from under one. Press the knees and edge the skis into the slope. The body should be slightlv twisted toward the slope, so tnat the down hill shoulder will always lead the uphill shoulder.

The steeper and icier the slope, the more the knees and edges should be pressed into the mn. While traversing a slope the srxed can be checked in two ways. 1. Flatten the skis slightly, and press down with the heels so that tne packs or the skis will skid down hill. This skiddine will rhprt mnr speed.

You can control the extent or the check by edging to a sreatpr or lesser degree as you go into the SKld, 2. Or you can check bv usinff a single stem, that is by stemming wun one ski oniy. to check this way while running at a traverse always stem with the downhill ski. The The Wl?
