"RED PONY" NOW
FEATURED BILL AT
CAPITOL THEATRE
* Long heralded by glow ing reports.
Republic’s production' of "The Red
Pony,” starring Myrna Loy and
Robert Mitchum, opened last night
at the Capitol Theatre and proved
to be an even more auspicious film
than its advance publicity indicated.
Presented by Charles K. Feldman,
this Technicolor version of John
Steinbeck’s beloved novel has been
translated to the screen with all of
its original charm, beautiful dia
logue and sensitivity.
The story is built around the gift
of a small red pony to nine-year-old
Tom Tiflin. The pony quickly be
comes the focal point about which
revolves a complex interplay of re
lationships in the Tiflin home.
The father, Fred, is a former
school teacher who has never been
able to adjust himself to the ranch
life so natural to his gentle wife,
Alice, and his young son.
Fred finds it impossible to get on
equal footing with the neighbors,
all of whom'address him as “Mr.
Tiflin" when he longs to be called
by his first name. It seems to Fred
that he is excess baggage around
the ranch.
Even Tom turns to Billy Buck,
the hired man, for help in training
the pony, rather than to his father.
Fred vents most of his resentment
upon his old father-in-law, whose
wistful identification with the past
irritates the unhappy man. •
When the pony dies, bringing
depthless grief to young Tom, the
family situation is brought to a
fast, heart-warming culmination,
which makes “The Red Pony" a pic
ture which will linger hauntingly in
all minds for a long time to come.
SUNDBCRG SAYS
TAIYA PROJECT
STILL POSSIBLE
Alaskans can be assured that
every proper move is being made in
Washington and elsewhere to see
that the Taiya project is given fair
consideration in connection with
the nation's need for expanded
aluminum production, George Sund
borg, consultant for the Alaska De
velopment Board, declared today.
“We have worked on this enter
1 prise too many years to let it go
l without a real fight being made at
j this time,” Sundborg said. “It will
! result, if we are successful, in the
! establishment of a $300 million in
dustry near Skagway which would
support a population of about 30,000
| people.
“Many high considerations of na
| tional policy and defense are in
volved as are delicate relations with
Canada, so there is real danger in
the release of irresponsible state
ments or the airing of intemperate
views.
“We are convinced, and hope to
convince those who will make the
decisions, that the Taiya project
has many real advantages over
other alternatives which have been
proposed for increasing aluminum
production.
“We suspect strongly that the
production officials who are re
ported to have made a snap judg
ment that a large plant in Alaska
would not be defensible had no idea
at the time that in 4ts stead there
would be proposed a similar plant
at Kitimat, only 100 air miles from
Southeast Alaska.
“The Juneau, Ketchikan and
Skagway chambers of commerce
have sent telegrams of inquiry and
protest to the proper officials in
Washington, and we still are con
vinced that when the facts are fully
known there Taiya will not be ‘scut
tled’ or deferred.”
