Sunday and Monday
As a story, “The Naked and the
Dead” sold more than 7,000,000
copies. Transfered to the screen,
the story, though not completely
intact is probably more dramatic,
and just as real.
In it are starred Aldo Ray, Cliff
Robertson, Raymond Massey, Lili
St Cyr and Barbara Nichols. The
film was produced by Paul Gre
gory, and was directed by Raoul
Walsh, from the novel by Norman
Mailer.
The story is centered around an
Army platoon making a beach
landing, as it invades a Japanese
held jungle island.
Tuesday and Wednesday
Sterling Hayden and Anita Ek
berg star in the film “Valerie,”
which unfolds a drama of murder,
lust and violence in a small West
ern town just after the war be
tween the States. Starring also is
Anthony Steel.
In “Valerie,” Anita portrays a
beautiful Austrian girl who comes
to America with her parents five
years after the end of the Civil
War and settles in a small West
ern town, where she becomes the
central figure in her husband’s
murder trial.
Oil the same billing, the science
fiction thriller, “The Night the
World Exploded.” In it are such
fantastic scenes as volcanoes
springing out of the earth, cities
crumbling, trains smashed, moun
tains disappearing, with mighty
earthquakes erupting, spreading
death and destruction everywhere.
Thursday and Friday
Warner Bros’ “Home Before
Dark,” show's a famous landmark
of Marblehead, Mass.; the famed
Lafayette House. ,It is the home
of Charlotte Bronn, played by
Jean Simmons. Lafayette House
derives its name -and is histori
cally noted for the “cut-off-cor
ner” where the building was al
tered to permit L a f aye 11 e’s
carriage to make the turn of the
narrow street.
Starring besides.Jean Simmons,
Dan O’Herlihy, Rhonda Fleming
and Efrem Zimbaiist, Jr., “Home
Before Dark” was produced from
the much-discussed best-selling
novel by Eileen Bassing and con
cerns the struggle of a young -wife
to keep her husband and her sani
ty when threatened with losing
both.
Political Observations
Many people believe that the wages paid to the legis
lators in the New State of Alaska are the highest of any
of the other 48 states. Here are the facts.
The highest is the state of New York they pay $15,
000 per year, a round trip home per week and $1,000
expense allowance. The following states pay $10,000
or over—California, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jer
sey and Ohio. In the state of Louisiana the pay is $50.
00 per day and $150.00 per month when not in session
and eight round trips home. Now here is the one that is
interesting—in Puerto Rico they get $6,000 per year,
a round-trip home per week $15.00 per day when in
session and $400.00 for telephone, telegrams and etc.
For the 80 days we were in session plus our yearly
pay we receive $6,200.00 and one round-trip.
Then if you take the value of the dollar in Alaska as
compared to the other states, we end up with about
$4,000.00. Not one person I have talked to yet know
these facts. I hope we will soon in Alaska start judg
ing our decision based on facts.
