Western Story
In Technicolor
Is al Capitol
Razzle-dazzle action to the stac
cato of blazing six-shocters, tense
melodrama punctuated by uproar
ious comedy and a backstage love
story of charm and tenderness are
combined in "Curtain Call at Cac
tus Creek,” Technicolor western
from Universal-International which
is at the Capitol Theatre.
The western-comedy is Donald
O'Connor’s first film since -his
success in "Francis,” the hilarious
story of a talking Army mule. The
talented O'Connor shares romance
in the comedy with Gale Storm.
Walter Brennan, Vincent Price
and Eve Arden also receive star
billing with O’Connor and Miss
Storm. A strong supporting cast
includes cowboys, Indians, bandits,
miners, and other rugged individuals
of the Old West as it was in Ari
zona territory during the ’80s.
With the exception of Brennan,
a sentimental bank robber, the four
stars are seen as members of a
theatrical troupe stage-coaching
their way through the southwest.
Price is the scenery-chewing star
of the show, O’Connor is his stage
struck factotum, under-study, prop
erty man and press agent, who
wants to shine in his own right;
Miss Storm is the piquant ingenue
and the colorful Miss Arden is a
' fading star of yesteryear.

Saturday
SEATTLE, Oct. 5—WPi—That old
quarterback juggler, Howie Odell
stuck by his choice for signal caller
today and said either Sam Mitchell

here with Southern California.
Coach Odell hasn’t come closer
than that in any of his pre-game
lineup listings to date, but when
the team readied for the kickoff it
was always Mitchell who was run

Monte Irvin Is Picked
As Big Star of World
Series Game Thursday
By WILL GRIMSLEY <
NEW YORK, Oct. 5—tfl—If you
think the Giants’ Monte Irvin is
a prize baseball package, just get
a load of this from Paul Richards,
manager of the Chicago White Sox:
“I think Irvin is the greatest
ball player in America,” the lean,
lantern-jawed former catcher said
today.
‘ Ask Mell Ott what I offered for
him when Monte was at Jersey
City and I was at Buffalo. It was
plenty. I’ll tell you—plenty.
“This fellow has everything. He
can run, hit and field. Right now
there's only one man I’d compare
with him. That’s Stan Musial.
They're a lot alike—the easy, fault
less way they play.”
These lofty words of praise from
a respected baseball man came in
the wake of one of the greatest one
man shows in World Series history.
In helping beat the Yankees in
the opening game of the series yes
terday, here’s what the 30-year-old
flychaser from Orange, N.J., did:
1. He stole home in the first
inning, the first player to do that
in a World Series since two Yanks,
Mike McNally and Bob Meusel, did
it in 1921.
2. He banged out four hits, three
singles and a booming triple, tying
the World Series record for num
ber of hits in a single game. His
fifth try was a rifle-shot line drive,
caught by first-baseman Joe Col
lins.
3. He made two tremendous
catches in the field, going back to
the stands to haul down Hank
Bauer’s stadium-bound blow in the
first inning.
The great Joe DiMaggio. is the
first to recognize the fact that op
posing pitchers no longer hold him
in the awe they once did.
“Did you know,” DiMag recalled
in the dressing room after yester
day’s game, “that Koslo didn’t
throw me a single ball?”
The Yankee clipper fijjd out
twice to left and twice to center in
four times at bat. He had one j
i well-hit ball, caught by Irvin in
j deep left-center in the third.
The 37-year-old DiMaggio says he 1
i still hasn’t made up his mind def- j
initely whether to retire at the end j
of the present season, as predicted j
in the spring.
Stengel said, "It’s all up to Joe.
I want him back. Without him, we
couldn't have won this pennant.”
The reason Stengel named Lefty
Ed Lopat instead of Vic Raschi as
his second game starter is this:
Lopat throws the kind of "cute”
stuff that results in hump-backed
fly balls. Easy outs in the spacious
Yankee Stadium, they might fall
for home runs in the cramped Polo
Grounds, where the antagonists
play tomorrow.

'Beau Geste' Is
Thriller Now af
20th Century
Blazing with action, excitement
and romance, Paramount’s “Beau
Geste," which is now at the 20th
Century Theatre, is a thrill-packed
story of the world’s toughest, most
glamorous fighting force, the French
Foreign Legion.
Based on Percival Christopher
1 Wren’s rousing novel, the film stars
Gary Cooper, Ray Milland and Rob
ert Preston. The brilliant featured
cast is headed by Brian Donlevy,
Susan Hayward, J. Carrol Naish and
Donald O’Connor.
The pulse-pounding story of three
brothers who join the Foreign Le
gion to escape a bitter past, "Beau
Geste” recounts in vivid detail their
adventure-crammed lives as soldiers
of the desert. Under constant at
tack by marauding natives, and
forced to submit to the brutal treat
ment of a sadistic sergeant, they
perform their duties heroically,
bringing glory to themselves and
the flag they serve.
In the title role, Cooper gives a
magnificent performance. His ex
citing portrayal of a man who vol
untarily gives up a life of ease and
luxury for one of hardship and
danger ranks with the best he has
ever done.

Milwaukee
Winner of
LW Series
MILWAUKEE, Oct. 5—MV-'The
Milwaukee Brewers jerked the rug
from under Montreal last night with
a wild scoring binge which turned
an eight-run deficit into a 13-10
victory and gave them the 1951
Little World Series championship.
Milwaukee went into the bottom
of the third inning trailing 10-2 but
had tied the score at 10-all by the
end of the sixth and possessed its
winning margin by the end of the
seventh. In two innings the Brew
ers batted the lineup around.
It was their third straight deci
sion over the Royals of the Inter
national League and ended the
series with the American Associa
tion club winning four of the six
games played.
The championship was Milwau
kee’s third in three appearances
in the annual series between champs
of the association and the Inter
national League.
