In supporting the World Film and Art Festival in Brussels, June 1-30, the Belgian Government hopes not only to attract tourisi trade, but also to make the Belgian capital the permanent site for the event, according to Richard Zondervan, general manager of the U. S. office of the Festival, and Alex Salkin, the official representative. With more than 100 feature films produced during 1946, the United States has the right to show 10 such films at Brussels. All of the Motion Picture Association member companies have indicated they will participate. Three types of films will compete at Brussels. Features, subdivided into long and short groups ; animated films and cartoons, and scientific pictures. The U. S. will have the right to enter 10 productions in each category. All films must have been produced between January 1, 1946, and April 30, 1947. None can be entered that has been shown at a previous festival and no propaganda films will be admitted. In addition to 10 feature films, the rules of the Festival permit that five more films be submitted by countries with a large output. The Society of Independent Motion Picture Producers will be approached toward that end, Mr. Zondervan said. Jutkovitz, Exhibitor in Rockaways, Dies at 55 Alexander Jutkovitz, 55, for many years a theatre owner with his brother Isadore in the Rockaways, Long Island, N. Y., died March 5 in Cleveland, where he had been visiting. He came to this country with his brother from Hungary in 1903 and in 1911 bought the Ridgewood Casino in Brooklyn, where they showed early films. Subsequently they purchased houses in Far Rockaway, Rockaway Park and Cedarhurst. Some of these theatres were leased by RKO, which tendered the brothers a dinner last year at the Waldorf-Astoria, New York. Mr. Jutkovitz was also active in civic and charitable affairs. Surviving are a widow, Rose Semmel Jutkovitz, three children, Howard, Elliott and Seren, and his brother Isadore. Edgar W. Adams Edgar W.
