John Wayne Is Big
Star on Screen at
Capilcl Theatre
John Wayne Is Hollywood’s “man
of the hour.” With his last four
pictures. "Fort Apache,” "Red Ri
ver,” "Wake of the Red Witch,” and
“The Fighting Kentuckian,” mop
ping up at the box-offices of the
nation, he is In a position to write
his own terms on all film deals —
an enviable and unusual status in
Hollywood today.
“The Fighting Kentuckian,’’
which opened at the Capitol The
atre yesterday presents Wayne in s
dual capacity — as star and pro
ducer.
Wayne was born in Wintersct,
Iowa, the son of a drug store pro
prietor who joined other Iowans in
the trek to California when John
was but five years old. Christened
Marion Michael Morrison, the name
was quickly shortened to "Duke,"
and as “Duke” he went through
childhood and a college career at
the University of Southern Cali
fornia.
Like many another star athlete,
Wayne sought rugged summer vaca
tion jobs to keep him in trim for
the football season, and he landed
| a job carrying heavy props on one
' of the motion picture studio sets.
| There he was discovered by Raoul
I Walsh and zoomed to stardom ir
I his very first picture, "The Big
j Trail.”
A year or so ago, Republic agreed
! to give Wayne free-hand in pro
ducing his own picture, and the
result was satisfactory.
Rammed Ship
Sinks in North
Sea; Crew Safe
BREMERHAVEN, Germany, Nov.
5 — <jf) — The $4,000,000 motorship
Maipu — pride of Argentina's mer
chant fleet — was rammed by a
U.S. troopship and sank in the foggy
North Sea yesterday. The trans
port and German rescue craft saved
all 238 persons aboard the Argen
tine vessel.
The troopship, the Gen. M. L
Hershey — her bow stove in by the
collision — limped into Bremer
haven last night with many Maipu
survivors aboard. A special train
was chartered to take them to Ham
)urg, the Maipu’s port of call.
The Maipu’s captain. Juan Mar
quez, picked up by German light
i ship Weser after the crash, said
in a ship-to-shorc radio interview
that his 80 passengers and 158
crewmen kept calm through the
ordeal.
"They left the ship quietly,” he
said. ■ “There were no incidents."
The fact that the usually rough
North Sea was calm under its fog j
blanket was said to have played!
c large part in the 100 percent suc
cessful rescue.
The 12,000-ton Maipu and the
10,000-ton transport, groping
through early morning fog, collided
15 miles offshore, near the German
island of Waneroog. The crash
tore a big hole in the Maipu’s port
side.
Witnesses said the Argentine
vessel began to list immediately,
but stayed afloat for three hours
— another big factor In the suc
cessful rescue. Passengers aboard
the stricken vessel included 38
women and eight children.
• The Hershey immediately began
searching through the mists for
lifeboats with survivors. Soon af
terward the Weser and smaller Ger
man craft joined in.
The last lifeboat with 15 aboard
was not spotted until after the
Maipu had gone down.
Officers aboard the Hersey, carry
ing U.S. 43rd Division troops to
Germany, refused to discuss the
collision.

of air strikes.
Allied Mustang and Thunderjet
fighters raked the scarred hills with
strafing and fire bomb attacks.
Allied tanks moved up to support
the drive. They were ready for
any renewed Red effort to use
armor in the area.
A briefing officer at Eighth
Army headquarters said the Red
attack Sunday was the heaviest
Communist assault in two months. •
First reports said Allied In
fantrymen and planes hurled
back the Reds and regained all
lost ground by Sunday midnight.
Warplanes knocked out six of 20
Red tanks and one of three self
propelled guns sighted in the assault
during eight hours of vicious fight
ing Sunday.
The U.S. Fifth Air Force said its
jet pilots shot down two MIG-15s,
probably destroyed two and dam
aged six in three fights Sunday
over northwest Korea. No Allied
planes were lost in aerial combat,
but two were shot down in other

pilots were presumed lost, the Air

In all, 92 American fighter planes
were pitted against 145 of the Rus
sian-made MIGs.

Screen Hit is
Now Showing
At 20th Century
Without question, the funniest
picture of the year opened at the
20th Century Theatre yesterday!
It’s "Unfaithfully Yours,” and
Twentieth Century-Fox has served
up one long, loud laugh from begin
ning to end, aided by the super
romantic and super-comic activities
of Rex Harrison, Linda Darnell,
Rudy Vallee and Barbara Lawrence.
No small credit for the delightful
drolleries of the film go to writer
director-producer Preston Sturges.
‘“Unfaithfully Yours” is a delight
from its opening title to the final
fadeout. Picture Rex Harrison as
a suave, dashing orchestra conduc
tor married to svelte, beautiful
Linda Darnell and imagining that
all is not well with their romantic
relationship. Picture a series of
sequences in whicji Rex imagines
himself proving her infidelity. Pic
ture a series of scenes in which
comedy, slapstick, romance, music
and suspense are blended together
against a modern sophisticated set
ting while the principals work out
their hilarious contretemps. That's
“Unfaithfully Yours” — as deft a
bit of Inotion picture hilarity as
you’ll see this year.
