CAPITOL THEATRE Dealing witha weird cult and its unbelievable activities against a background of modern New York City, RKO Radio's new thrtil-film, "The Seventh Victim," -came to the screen of the Capitol Theatre today. The picture is packed with a suspenseful action that builds up from its quiet beginning to a hair-raising conclusion, and it has been deftly handled to bring out memorable quality of eerie tension. A schoolgirl learns that her older sister and only living relative has mysteriously disappeared, and she goes to New York in search of her. The "girl meets a strangely assorted group of persons, most of whom knew the missing woman, but none of them were able to throw any light on her disappearance.

Her determined efforts to solve the puzzle finally lead her to the discovery that a strange cult of devil-worshipers, which her sister had joined and betrayed, has ordered her to kill herself. Trying to avoid this doom, the frightened woman is finally located, but is spirited away again by her persecutors. The climax brings the strange story to a dramatic end.

Bat most are inspired by curves, as displayed in bathing suits or other scanty garb. Following the release of "Random Harvest," for instance, Greer Garson's fan mail from servicemen i jumped to 60 per cent. The letters acclaimed her eyes, her femininity and charm and were inspired, the writers said, by tne fact that she portrayed a girl faithful to her soldier husband. But it's also a fact that in the film Greer wore abbreviated Scotch kilts and proved for the first time in her Hollywood film career that she has pretty legs as well as pretty eyes. Lana Turner, who vies with Greer as recipient of the most fan mail at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, gets 75 per cent of her mail 'from servicemen.
