The five sergeants were rounding out their 300 hours of combat flying in a raid over Italy By WANDA HALE The Rialto Theatre's new screen offering is "The Kansan," a killer-diller with a cast of players including Richard Dix, Jane Wyatt, Victor Jory, Albert Dekker and the biggest assortment of Hollywood's gun packin' meanies as you'll find in a half dozen less pretentious westerns.

Sherman, the man who? produces those good Hopalong Cas-sidv westerns, made this one and Jane Wyatt nets a nand from Kichard Dix in 'The Kan at Rialto Theatre. he vent to town ofT the old Wild West lot, padding it generously with romance, comedy, courage, crookedness and blood and thunder. He even polishes off the lively, dangerous goings-ons with the dynamiting of a bridge to hold back the enemy until the defenders of the town can strengthen their forces. The result of Sherman's pains will "surely please western fans but we're not going out on a limb and suggest that you go out of your way to see "The Kansan" if you're not a dyed-in-the-wool hoss-opera admirer. Dix plays, to the hilt, the hero, one John Bonniwell, an intrepid fellow who.

Recovering from the pistol wounds received in the fracas, Bonniwell is informed that all that noise outside the hospital is in celebration of his election to the position of marshal of Broken Lanee, a dubious honor and one which he would have turned down had not the lovely lady who told him the news insisted that Broken Lance needed such a man as himself to enforce law and order.

But Susan and Jeff Evans don't need much encouragement.

There are only two of these young folks, but they're so much in evidence and so energetic we felt more worn out at the end of the hour and 15 minutes of watching them than we would have been watching a fight-to-the-death bat tle between the Dead End Kids and the Little Tough Guys. The silly things Susan and Jeff do to turn their stepfather against their mother and the vicious lies they tell on her are anything but funny. It would have caused us, Mary Astor and Herbert Marshall less suffering if they, the newlyweds, had conked the kids and put the bodies in a window seat in the beginning of the picture instead of waiting until the end to give them sound spankings. They deserved much worse, and sooner. Susan Peters and Elliott Reid play the offensive young people of this comedy that was written by Ian McLellan Hunter and Bill Noble.

What surprised us was that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer executives, after seeing "Young Ideas," ever let it leave the studio. MOVIE TIME TABLE AsTIIR 1:110. 4:25. 7:50. 1115.

Hodges of North Little Rock, told of a farmer who watched the first wave of planes disturb his cows, then threw his walking stick at the next low-flying formation. Berry laughed about a peasant who ran out of his cottage to fire a double-barrelled shotgun at the raiders. Tech. Sergt. Earl R.

Parker of West Brookfield, got his biggest kick out of the sentry who was chased into a pillbox. Staff Sergt. Raymond N. Dickey of Sallisaw, didn't mind the raid so much, but he got a big scare when a photographer flashed a bulb in taking his picture after it was all over. In addition to flying the number of combat hours which entitled them to home fourloughs, the sergeants each earned the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Air Medal.

"We figured that was our last mission," they admitted today upon arrival for a rest furlough. Tech. Sergt. Robinson B. Berry of EIrod, told the story: "About 20 minutes from our target about 40 or 50 German fighters came after us.

I was in the last plane, and they poured it at us. Four of us in the plane were going home if we came back from that mission, so we really shot it out with them. We knocked out six for sure and had one probable with our ship's guns. 2 Ways to Blow Up. "They used rocket-launchers the first time we had seen them.

The planes were ME-109s and 110s and JU-88s. "The rocket shells weigh about 32 pounds each and look something like our 155-mm. shells. They were fixed to explode on time or contact, and the fighters fired them into our formation to burst like shrapnel bombs. "We were a bit surprised at first, but it was all right.

The rockets didn't damage our plane, and we fought them off. The pursuit stayed with us more than an hour, and we were starting to get worried when they finally quit."

But it's not long before he discovers that Steve Garat, Broken Lance's banker, had him elected marshal to have a man to carry out his, Garat's ideas of justice, which are ideas not according to the Constitution. Garat is an unscrupulous financier, a mortgage holder whose ambition is to own practically all of Broken Lance. Bonniwell also learns that he is not the only man in town who would like to make Eleanor Sager his wife.

Jeff Garat, Steve's brother, has that notion, too. But strangely enough, Jeff and John admire each other and become staunch friends and, ultimately, Jeff becomes John's allv against his brother, Steve. In the showdown, a bloody battle between Bonniwell's forces and Steve Garat's element, our hero is wounded and sent to the hospital to recover. And asking his visitor, Eleanor Sager, what the celebration outside is, she tells him that it is in honor of his engagement to her. Cute, what? Yes, sir, "The Kansan" has everything you could want in a western, and then some.

Showing at Loew's Metropolitan Theatre, with Wallace Beery 's "Salute to the Marines," is something by Metro-Goldwyn -Mayer called "Young Ideas." All we can call it is an insufferable comedy. And a waste of time and material and the talents of Mary Astor, Richard Carlson and Allyn Joslyn. This little piece has to do with two brats, precocious adolescents who try to break up their mother's happy marriage to a chemistry professor because they, who've lived abroad and in New York and hobnobbed with writers, don't want to settle down in a one-horse college town and be bored with the routine of attending classes. They are egged on by their mother's literary agent, a mercenary fellow who can't bear to give up his 10 of the money that Jose- BUSHWICK DYKER times FLUSHING GREEN POINTi KENMORE MADISON MIDWAY ORPHEUM PROSPECT REPUBLIC MITMl RICH, HILL STRAND fAK KXKAWAV TILY0U BUSSED ALB EN CARV GRANT LARAIHE COLUMBIA! ivciui uu Mais a Far cfcnr7 I 'WST fWT WW 1 FRED mil ASTAIRE 1 iI 1 1 I 1 "I tuiiliii Gene Charles BETTY HUTTON FACE IT' and 'HIS NEW STARS OF 194' N1N Mrt.
