Tense Drama ol
Human Emotions
At Capitol Sunday
Heralded as one of the most un
j usual romantic dramas ever to reach
I the screen, "My Foolish Heart,”
j Samuel Goldwyn’s production for
RKO Radio, stars Dana Andrews
and Susan Hayward in the story of
a wife who married just after she
discovers that she is to have a
child by another man.
The play opens tomorrow at the
Capitol Theatre.
After about seven years, the mar
riage hits the rocks. As Miss Hay
ward is preparing to leave with her
child, she finds an old evening gown
which brings back poignant mem
ories of her boarding school ro
mance w-ith a young GI (Andrews),
and his untimely death before they
- can be married. In desperation, she
) inveigles her school room-mate’s
| fiance (Kent Smith' into an imme
! diate marriage, with nobody any
the wiser regarding the parentage of
her child. However, this emotional
tangle ends on a note of future
adjustment.
Co-featured with Smith are Lois
Wheeler as Miss Hayward’s room
mate, Jessie Royce Landis and
Robert Keith as Miss Hayward’s par
ents, and Gigi Perrcau as the child.
I Mark Robson directed, and the
screenplay was written by Julius J.
and Philip G. Epstein, based on J.
D. Salinger’s original story in The
New Yorker.

Stating that she was “fulfilling a
longtime desire to come to Alaska, ’
Miss Anna Heisler arrived in Juneau
this week to become acting director
of nursing for the Alaska Depart
ment of Health during the absence
of Miss Dorothy Whitney.
Miss Whitney, nursing director
since 1945, leaves in mid-September
for Johns Hopkins School of Pub
lic Health and Hygiene to obtain
the degree of master of public health
before returning next fall.
Miss Heisler has been assistant
director of the division of public
health nursing in the U. S. Public

C., for the past six years.
Also arriving in Juneau this week
were three other nurses. Miss Gert
rude Kunz left her work as educa

assistant nursing director for the
department. She will have her head
quarters in Anchorage and will go
there after becoming acquainted
with department work here.

Indians, Yanks
Both Sit on Top
By the Associated Press
Hold on folks. Will Harridge's
American League wheel Is spinning
toward another coin-tossing finish.
With Cleveland and New York
straining in an exact first place tie,
let's take a look at the schedule
for the final six weeks of the sea
son.
The edge, if any, tips slightly in
favor of the Yankees who play 22
; of their last 40 in Yankee Stadium.
Cleveland divides its final 40 on a
20-20 basis and Boston, four games
back, faces an uphill pull with only
16 at home and 24 away.
Nine big games between Boston
and New York may give the Cleve
land club the breathing space it
needs. While the Red Sox and
Yanks knock off one another in
late September, the Tribe could
slide home free.
Cleveland plays only 16 games
with the other first division clubs
while New York has 19 and Boston
17 with the upper crust. Chicago,
nine full games off the pace, still
has seven dates with the Indians,
their victims of yesterday.
The White Sox, now an outsider in
the four-club race, stung Cleveland
twice, 7-1 and 8-3. When the Yank'
knocked off Philadelphia, 3-2, in a
night game, Cleveland's lead had
disappeared.
The Stubby Ovcrmire-Tommy
Byrne trade the Yanks made in
June paid its second dWidend in
two days. Byrne, pitching for St.
Louis, ended a 13-game Cleveland
win streak Thursday. Last night
Overmire won Ills first for New
York by going the route against
the A's with an eight-hitter. Bos
ton hung in close by scoring three
in the 12lh to top Washington,
7-4. Detroit shaded St. Louis, 5-4.
Leo Durocher’s New York Giants
blew a little more life into their
National League hopes by thumping
the Phils, 8-5, to cut Brooklyn’s lead
to nine games. The Dodgers split
a pair in Boston, winning the
opener, 3-1 for Carl Erskine but
losing to Johnny Sain in the sec
ond, 4-3.
Stan Musial’s 28th homer in the
ninth gave St. Louis a 2-1 nod over
Cincinnati in a duel between Max
Lanier and Herm Wehmeier. Pitts
burg's Mel Queen set down Chicago
with three hits, 8-3.

Authenticity of
Scenes Featured
In 20th Film
From the great library of film
which Twentieth Century-Fox made
in Borneo on the actual sites of
the prison camps where "Three
Came Home," now at the 20th Cen
tury Theatre, takes place, studio
staffs constructed exact duplicates
of those camps and the various
other buildings designated In Agnes |
Newton Keith’s autobiographical i
novel from which the film is taken.!
Mrs. Keith, a victim of the Japs
during the war, is played by Clau- ]
dette Colbert.
Sandakan's principal buildings,'
and the Kuching and Berhala pri
son camps were reconstructed J
exactly as they were in Borneo ac- ,
cording to Mrs. Keith's description
matched by the location films the |
studio made. A rubber plantation
with seven buildings, including a [
rubber-cure factory, plus the large
scale olf-the-ground structures typ
ical of Borneo also were built.
About 21.000 square feet of tule
matting, made by Indians at Cala
patria near the Colorado river, were
used to roof the buildings. More
than $50,000 was spent on one set,
for the sake of authenticity, essen
tial to the spirit of the picture.
On the spot selected for the Bor
nea villages, prison camps and fac
tories, Twentieth Century-Fox re
moved an oil well which had been
pumping pn the studio lot for thirty
years. Duplicates of the main pri
son camp at Kuching were erected
in three spots on the studio lot: in
the “meat”: in a big hollow on the
studio north lot covering twenty
acres; and again on one of the in
door stages.

leave of absence will be the other.
Miss Whitney, director of the di
vision of public health nursing with
the Alaska Health Department, is

Hours for the tea Monday will be
between 4 and 6 p.m.
Angels' Manager
Wears Skippers'
Baiting Crown
By the Associated Press
For whatever it’s worth, Stan
Hack of the Los Angeles Angels
reigns today as managerial batting
champion of the Pacific Coast
league.
The Seraph skipper wrested the
crown last night from its longtime
proprietor, Lefty O’Doul, prominent
San Francisco tavern keeper, bon
vivant, and man about town whose
hitting prowess on this occasion
was even worse than his team’s,
which is pretty bad.
Anyway, Hack did the job by col
lecting five hits out of 10 fair balls
in a contest which preceded last
night’s game at Los Angeles. O’Doul
got only ope safety.
Adding further humility. Hack's
Angels then went out and trounced
the Seals, 5-1, to extend their
winning streak to six games and
establish an interesting motif for
their weekend engagement with
the first place Seattle Rainiers.
The Rainiers lead by six games
now, bowing last night to Sacra
mento, 6-3, while the second place
Hollywoods were crushing Oakland,
11-4.
Sacramento’s triumph ended an
eight game drought and pushed the
club back into sixth place as San
Diego absorbed a 10-0 goose egging
at the hands of the Portland Beav
ers.

CHICAGO, Aug. 18—Wl—'Word
was out that old age was seeping
into the marrow of the Cleveland
Browns and the 1951 National Foot

knocked from the pinnacle.
The Browns are still the team to
beat. They’re a long way from being
turned out to pasture.
With the gusto and vigor of col
lege kids, the amazing Browns sand
bagged the collegiate All-Stars 33-0
last night to open the football sea
