Pacific Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - October 17, 1948, Tokyo, T�ky� I i i m i relentless Robert Young Marguerite Chapman his slow paced Story of a cow poke s vengeance is about As Origi Nal As a Zane Grey plot but is far More expertly developed Bobert Young a roaming cow puncher drifts into an old West Saloon one Rainy night just As two old prospectors Are setting up drinks for the House in Celebration of their Gold strike. Young s not interested in the Champagne put before him All i he wants is dry shelter for a Mare he is nursing. Seems As How this Yere Mare s Gonna foal Purt y Quick now and the Colt will have race horse blood _ in him. Make a Man a Fortune someday. I some evil bystanders notably bar ton Maclaria Are More concerned with the location of the new Gold mine i than with Young s future sea biscuit but they see a Chance to get in some nefarious work and blame it on the \ stranger. Maclane directs Young and Mare to a shed near the prospectors Cabin. That night the tvs o sourdough Are murdered and their map of the strike is stolen. Oblivious of their connection with the crime Young and his Mare traipse on into the Hill country. Meanwhile Maclane who has double crossed his partner in crime by killing him to get full Possession of the map to the Gold Deposit has lost his mount and must have another. He comes upon Young just after the Mare has delivered her foal takes the Mare away at gun. Point and rides the weakened beast to death. T this outrage turns Young into a vengeful figure straight out of greek tragedy a fury in chaps and boots. His temper in t helped by the fact ,. That Maclane alerted a posse to Chase him either. On the run with his Newborn co Tyoung luckily bumps into a girl peddle of pots and pans Marguerite Chapman who is following her de ceased father s Trade of Selling trinkets to the folks in the Fork of the Creek. Naturally she gives Young a lift in her covered Wagon and the Story s i elements Are braced against each other for the inevitable developments. \ fugitive Young eludes the posse by i his own cunning some help from a greedy gambling Boss Akim Tami Roffan the faithful efforts of miss j Chapman. All the while he s getting j closer to Barton Maclane. The sequences of this Chase Are annoyingly stereotyped but the director did his Best to ring in a gimmick by repro setting Young As a sort of l in Abner completely indifferent to miss Chap Man s romantic advances the ending cruelly reminiscent of similar endings by better actors and Slicker writers is still the Best wrought portion of the movie. So so on the whole. E. A. Martin Johnny Appleseed All in delicate Imi tation american primitive and the adventures of Pecos Bui a first rate satire on Texas and All texans there Are More segments but they remain average Disney. There Are also a Rumber of top Billing names whose voices and occasionally per sons appear but Disney gets along Fine in spite of then even a Drippy Fred Waring arrangement of the equally dripping Kilmer Trees is saved by the consulate skill of the Disney staff. It seems a shame however that with the superlative Talent that could make Victory through Airpower a completely entertaining film of instruction Snow White an immortal idyllic legend and fantasia one of the most gripping visual experiences Ever filmed Disney does t Stop playing Down to an audience whom he ought to know would take him no matter what he turned out. Donald Richie dream girl " Betty Button Macdonald Carey Shakespeare who wrote better a than anyone who Ever lived should have had a Chance to write movie reviews. Although the Bard was Lucky enough to be spared this particular phase of soul searching he did anticipate the situation with a Blanket tag for most of Hollywood s efforts. It is a tale told by an idiot signifying Okay dream girl was t meant to have outstanding significance. Still As far As most audiences Are concerned it will be hard to deter mine just what was intended by its production. Betty Hutton in the serious role of a spoiled and opinionated Park Avenue or who finds Refuge for her thwarted Hopes and needs in Day dreaming alienates the sympathies of potential dream girl fan by a studied and deliberate whine through out the movie. Macdonald Carey playing a poor but principled Newspaperman com. Plica Tes her dream world and finally wrecks it by forcing his attentions on her until she Falls in love with him. Evidently dream girl finds the real world pleasanter than the regions of fantasy if we can believe her whim pers of ecstasy in the fadeout. E. A.

Beneath a Guise of High sounding altruism the underlying motive of All Ford business practices was always the same to make every Dollar dime or Penny possible by whatever Means necessary. The author also delves into Henry Ford s personal predilections especially his attitude toward jews Square danc ing the use of tobacco and liquor. Harry Bennett who really ran the Ford company for Twenty years Des Pite the unassuming titles he held used sex convicts thugs and murder ers to build Ford service into one of the most effective spy systems Ever operated within an Industrial establishment. During that time the pub Lic was Given the impression that Ford never knew what was going on. Or. Sward offers ample evid ence that or.
