THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1939 T H E WATCHMAN PAGE ELEVEN SUFFOLK AND GREENPORT THEATRES “These Glamour Girls” plays at the Greenport Theatre Friday and Saturday, and it is all that the name implies. It has six of the most gorgeous creatures in screen- land’s younger set playing in the featured roles. It is a story of college life without a football or a touchdown. It is the battle of the century between the male and female of the species, with prom inent parts being taken by Lana Turner, Anita Louise, Ann Ruth erford, Jane Bryan, Marsha Hunt, M ary' Beth Hughes, Lew Ayres, Tom Brown and others. The accompanying picture pre sents the story of a romance which bloomed even against the discour aging and depressing background of prison walls, filmed in the dra matic and authentic locale of ac tual Federal prisons. The film is entitled “They All Come Out” and it emerges as one of the most re freshingly unusual features of the year’s film fare. With a cast head ed by Rita Johnson and Tom Neal as the romantic leads, it achieves a sincerity and compelling flavor which many a picture with bigger names has lacked. Ginger Rogers’ new starring v e hicle, “Fifth Avenue Girl,” begins a three day showing Sunday with the comedienne in the role of an unemployed girl who takes the job of bringing a rich and care less family to its collective senses. Miss Rogers plays the role of the fixer-upper, and Walter Connilly that of the harassed millionaire. Tim Holt and Kathryn Adams are seen as the millionaire’s son and daughter, James Ellisntn as the chauffeur, and Verree Teasdale as the wife. “They Shall Have Music” will be shown at the Greenport and Suffolk Theatres next Wednes day and Thursday. The film un folds a gripping story of human interest, highlighted by tense and thrilling action. The principal roles are played by Andrea Leeds, Joel McCrea and Jasca Heifetz, while the supporting roles are portrayed by Walter Brennan, Gene Reynolds, Tommy Kelly and Terry Kilburn. It draws its char acters and plot from the wealth of material found on New York’s East Side. The story revolves around Professor Lawson, por trayed by Walter Brennan, and his music school settlement, com posed of ragged youngsters who are musical prodigies. Suffolk movie fans will be able to View the celebrated Dartmouth winter carnival at first hand in “Winter Carnival” which will be shown at the Suffolk Theatre this Friday and Saturday. Ann Sheri dan heads the cast of young play ers, among whom are Richard Carlson, Helen Parrish and James Corner. While the ice festival is an important part of “Winter Car nival,” it does not interrupt the smooth running story of American youth and their antics but does present a dazzling display of ice sculpture, skeeing, skating and other cold weather sports. The short subjects on the program in clude a Walt Disney cartoon “Sea Scouts” and an Our Gang comedy “Dog Daze,” also the latest News. “When Tomorrow Comes” will be shown at the Suffolk Theatre next Sunday, Monday and Tues day. John M. Stahl is the direc tor, and Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer the team that make such a hit. “When Tomorrow Comes” brings you a tremendously power ful love story laid in the midst of a terrific hurricane. The plot con cerns Dunne and Boyer out on Long Island for a day’s vacation together, being caught in the hur ricane that raged across the Is land and New England last Fall. And if you would get a hilarious lesson on how to carve meat, don’t miss Pete Smith’s “Culinary Carv ing” which is also on the program as well as the News. MATTITUCK THEATRE This Friday and Saturday the Mattituck Theatre presents Jack Benny’s best picture to date, “Man About Town,” loaded with com edy, smart dialogue, tuneful num bers and eye filling pulchritude. Benny, an American theatrical im- pressario, tries to crash England’s upper crust society while trying to win Dorothy Lamour, his sing ing star. The picture provides side-splitting comedy and is top notch fun from start to finish. Besides Jack Benny •and Dorothy Lamour, the cast is filled with such names as Edward Arnold, Binnie Barnes, Betty Grable and Eddie Anderson (Rochester). An Andy Clyde comedy accompanies this feature. A new version of the regular Saturday night game will be pre sented, called Jackpot Lucky. Be on hand to see how this new game is played. Playing under his own name, Tommy Ryan comes to Mattituck on Sunday and Monday in “Or phans of the Street.” Rather than go to an orphanage. Tommy and his dog run away. A dash of murder, its attendant suspense, in cluding that inherent in the dog’s trial for the murder foi-m the plot for this interesting film. With Randolph Scott as mar shal of Tombstone, Cesar Romero as a dead shot gambler, and Nancy Kelly and Binnie Barnes providing the romantic interest, “Frontier Marshal” is billed for the second feature on Sunday and Monday. Another of the Torchy Blane pictures “Torchy Runs for Mayor” will be presented on Tuesday (Jackpot night) and Wednesday of next week. In this film Torchy is fired from her job on a news paper when she tries to launch a clean-up campaign, and after being kidnaped and slated for death, she escapes with the aid of her detective sweetheart and runs for the post of mayor. The associate feature for Tues day and Wednesday is “On Trial,” starring Margaret Lindsay and John Litel. This is a courtroom film in which a lawyer tries to acquit Litel of a murder charge to which Litel wishes to plead guilty. IMPROVING ON LADY LUCK Next time you buy a ticket on the sweepstakes, remember the sad tale of Gabriel Gantjer, warns The Commentator Magazine (Sep tember issue). Gabriel buys a ticket for $2.50 and wins $150,000. Uncle Sam and Mr. Gamer’s home state between them take about $80,000 of it. So Gabe keeps only a paltry $70,000 —less than half of his honest win nings. But Mr. Gamer needed advice. He need not have owed this $80,- 000 tax. Suppose he goes home and says: “Evenin’, folks. Hold supper a minute—I’ve got some writing to do,” Then he writes as follows: “I^ Gabriel Gamer, do assign one-quarter interest in my sweep stakes ticket to my wife, one- quarter to my son, John, and one- quarter to my doughter, Mary.” If Gabe had done this simple thing, the total tax would have been only about $28,000, instead of $80,000. This neat little paper would have saved him $52,000. Now assume, if you please, that Mr. Gamer is a fairly good earner, and a sober, safe and sane invest or; that he not only would not throw away his $70,000 ($150,000 winnings less $80,000 tax), but wpuld leave it to his wife and children when he died. Even then he would be better off after the assignment. He would have provided his family with more than the entire $70,000 net earnings of the ticket. For he would have given them about $92,400 after taxes, and after GREENPORT IS SCENE OF WEEKEND ACCIDENTS A suburban car, owned by Eu gene McDonald, owner of the Orient Point Inn, and driven by Herman Fuchs, 27, an employee of McDonald, crashed and turned over on Route 25, east of Green port Sunday morning, September 10th. Fuchs sustained slight in juries. Peter Wirdirsky,’ 21, of Greenport, also employed by Mc Donald, and an occupant of the car, and Fuchs appeared before Judge Norman Klipp Tuesday and each drew a fine of $5, Wirdirski for permitting Fuchs to operate a motor vehicle, knowing he didn’t have a license to drive and Fuchs, for driving without a license. A car, said to have been driven by George Krukowskl, 32, of Peconic, L. I., ran off the Main road on Route 25, just west of Greenport, hit a cement post and immediately caught fire. The car, according to the story, was a total wreck. Krukowski was taken to the'Eastern Long Island Hospital and then to his home. He suffered severe forehead burns and a left hand injury. Krokowski was alone in the car when the acci dent occurred. DOWN CAME A SPIDER^ Spiderwebs are now being sold —and are making one resourceful Frenchman rich, s'ays The Com mentator Magazine. Pierre Gran- taire furnishes spiders for distri bution in the wine vaults of the French merchants. His trade is chiefly with the wholesale mer chant, who is able to stock a cel lar with new, shining, freshly labeled bottles, and in three months see them veiled in filmy c6bwebs, thus securing the effect of twenty years of storage. It is a trifling matter to spray the bins with dust, but cobwebs spun from cork to cork reproduce the seal of years of slow mellow ing and fruition—that’s where M. Grantaire comes in. He has what he calls a spider room where he raises the little creatures. There are about four thousand spiders in the xoom, all raising large families. Then in special nests he keeps at least ten (thousand old and young spiders in stock for immediate shipment. A customer calls or writes, con tinues the Commentator Magazine. He is a wine merchant from some large city, who says he has just stocked a cellar with some five- year-old wines. The bottles have been brushed clean in shipping; they look like new and will not sell for old wine. The merchant has attached to them labels of twenty or thirty years past, some year of a “grand vintage.” He tells M. Grantair? the number of bottles in the order. The owner of the spider farm soon figures out how many of his pets will be needed to cover the merchant’s cellar in cobwebs of the finest variety. He selects his spiders, packs them in boxes, and ships them off. In two or three months the dealer’s cellar looks as though it had not been disturbed for twenty or thirty years. It may have cost the dealer a tidy sum to buy all these weavers, but the wines in their spider-spun old robes bring returns that well repay him for his investment. PINES FOR PARK A grove of 165 mountain pines which mark the approach from the Theme Plaza to the Telephone exhibit at the New York World’s Fair will be presented to the New York City Park Department for incorporation in the park project which will replace the fair. keeping $37,500 to blow on him- elf or save. He would have pro- 'ided them with an Income for life. And there would be no in- leritance tax when he died. Of course, there’s a catch, warns The Commentator Magazine. He must make out that paper before the drawing of the winning ticket. And he ought to have some good, sound, creditable witness who can swear to the fact. h e ^T R E MATINEE SU N.-W E D . - S A T . at 2:15 P. M EVERY EVENING TWO SHOWS at 7 and 9 P. M. FRI.-SAT.
