“Letter to Three
Wives'* Stars Linda
Darnell, Jeffrey Lynn
With a mature, adult story that|
is sure to appeal to every type and
age of movie-goer, with laughter |
and drama blended in just the
right proportions, and an emo-
tional impact seldom equalled on
the screen, “A Letter to Three
Wives," showing Sunday and Mon-
day at the Rialto theatre, is won-
derful entertainment.
This Twentieth Century-Fox J
comedy-drama has a star-studded j
cast that includes Jeanne Crain, |
Linda Darnell and Ann Sothern asj
the “wives,” paired with Jeffrey
Lynn, Paul Douglas and Kirk
Douglas, respectively. The immed-
iate action of the hilarious story
takes place in a single day, when
the three girls leave on a picnic
excursion with the unsettling news
that “Addie,” their suburban
town’s most attractive unattached
female, has left town with one of
| their husbands.
"Addie,,” incidentally, is an in-
triguing Rebecca-like figure who
jis never seen or even identified,
1 but her taunting voice rings in the
l ears of each wife as she searches
i her marriage, convinced that it is
| her husband that the predatory fe-
male has taken.
Told in an intricate, yet com
pletely credible series of flash-
backs, “A Letter to Three Wives”
I is a cinematic triumph. The dia-
logue is brilliant, the direction of
writer-director Joseph L. Mankie-
vvicz a thing of rare perfection.
Paul Douglas, in his first screen
role as the hard-talking store ex-
ecutive, definitely establishes him-
self as a top-flight star, while
Linda Darnell has never showed to
better advantage. Jeanne Crain
emerges as a talented mature ac-
tress and Ann Sothern is superb as
is her school-teacher husband, Kirk
Douglas. Jeffrey Lynn scores as
Miss Crain’s better half.
The supporting players, headed
by lanky blonde Barbara Law-
rence, who is eo-starred as Linda’s
kid sister, include Connie Gilchrist,
Florence Bates and Hobart Cava-
naugh. Produced by Sol C. Sie-
gel, “A Letter to Three Wives”
was adapted by Vera Caspary from
a Cosmopolitan Magazine novel by
John Klempner.
No wife can afford to pass up
this sparkling entertainment treat
—no husband should!

The kids will agree that boots

Nena Roberson, associate exten-
sion clothing specialist of Texas
A. & M. college, says if you put
the oil on with soft cloth very
lightly and evenly and rub it in
well, the shoes will take a good
shine when dry. However, if too
much oil is applied, the shoes will
not take a good polish. Let the

But there is an exception to
that rule—and that exception is

Mrs. Bernice Claytor, extension

Texas A. & M. college, points out
that, for safety’s sake, one hand is
beter than two when handling any

success. And it’s easy enough to see why.
Everybody wants a smart, good-looking modern

That’s where De Soto scores. It’s got those long,

has hig wide doors. Plenty of headroom, too. The
roof won’t scrape your hat, no matter where you
sit. It’s roomier than ever.
It’s no use having bigger windows and windshields
unless you can see out ol them. In the new De Soto
you can . . . because you’re sitting on chair-high
seats. Even a short person can see over the steering
wheel. Even a six-footer won’t hit his knees on it.
You don’t have to enlarge your garage to hold the
new De Soto. You can still change a lire yourself.
And a dent in the fender doesn’t mean an expensive
body repair job. Come in and see this wonderful car
that lets you drive without shifting. Compare it with
any other at any price. Then decide.
