Knife-Throwing
Ruth Roman Shows
At 20th Century
Ruth Roman is a firm believer
in the adage that “every bit of (
knowledge comes in handy some
time."
“Particularly in the motion pic
ture business, you never know
when some talent will help you
in a role and enable you to give
a more convincing performance,”
says Miss Roman who stars in
Warner Bros.' Technicolor drama,
'Barricade,” at the 20th Century
today.
"For example,” continues Miss
Roman, "at the age of nine I was i
taught knife throwing by a pro- |
fessional knife thrower in my
father’s carnival. I never expected
to use that unique ability, but
there is a scene in which Dane
Clark is so enraged at Raymond
Massey’s brutal treatment of me
that he hurls a knife in his dir
ection. Dane was mightly sur
prised when I gave him pointers
)n the proper way to throw a
tnife.

Esther Goes
Tahitian in Film
At Capitol Theatre
Esther Williams in a pareu
(Tahitian version of a sarong) —
singing Howard Keel in his lirst
role since his triumphant debut in
“Annie Get Your Gun”—a flock
of brand nevV song hits from the
taleted pens of Harry Warren
and Arthur Freed — the exotic
background of a tropical Pacific
island filmed on location in Tech
nicolor! These are the highlights
of M-G-M-’s “Pagan Love Song"
now playing at the Capitol The
atre.
Miss Williams, in the role of a
part-Polynesian girl, shifts from
a smart modern wardrobe to the
eyefilling pareus. sings, dances
and again shows off her famous
swimming form, this time against
natural pools and lagoons. The
new musical follows her recent
hits in "Duchess of Idaho” and
"Neptune’s Daughter."
Keel, cast as an Ohio school
teacher who finds the tropics a
world far removed from the class
rooms, is given an opportunity at
romance and comedy and a
chance to sing an outstanding
flock of hit melodies.
