Thursday and Friday
To a large segment of the mo
vie-going public the Universal-In
ternational production of Betty
MacDonald’s best-selling book,
“The Egg and I,” which opens at ;
the' Orpheum Thursday, will be
most memorable for having creat
ed “Ma and Pa Kettle” and their
fabulous family. i
The extraordinary neighbors of
stars Claudette Colbert and Fred
MacMurray have built a unique
screen career for themselves. Mar
jorie Main as "Ma Kettle” and
Percy Kilbride as “Pa Kettle” are
co-starred in “The Egg and I.” i
These two, together in the plight (
of two people attempting to over
come the rigors of a rundown
farm, make for comedy that is
everlastingly funny.
LETTER FROM OLD HARBOR
Emil Knudsen received this let- .
ter from Old Harbor. It is quoted
in part:
Our thanks again for the boxes
of clothes and toys which you have
forwarded to the village. The last
box, just a little before Christmas,
had a lovely Toni doll. In my
second grade there is a child who
has three sisters and three
brothers. She had no doll however.
Never was anyone happier with
any gift than Evelyn with that
Toni doll. Her little black eyes
shone like stars.
