LONDON No doubt at all as to when "Teacher's Pet" is being shown at Odeon, either on weekdays or Sundays. .. .Neither is there any doubt, at right as to the popularity of the Clark Gable-Doris Day comedy. MANCHESTER -Last month we reported the interesting visit of Charlton Heston to the Kemsley Newspaper Organisation in this city. Here are pictures showing him actively at work as a linotype operator (without pay) ,and also as a reader looking over the results of his own work. From the critical look on his face it would appear that he will stick to film acting for the time being espec ially as he has been able to see, in London, Manchester, Dublin. Paris, Rome and Brussels (to mention just a few cities), the magnificent success being achieved by "The Ten Commandments." RIGHT LONDON One of the many important film events Charlton Heston attended during his very active stay in London was the Royal World Premiere of the British film, "Dunkirk," presented before Her Majesty the Queen and the Duke of Edinbu. gh. Shown here at right are Heston and D.P. Evans, a veteran of Dunkirk. LONDON This is an 'extension course' in the study of "Teacher's Pet" at the Odeon, and is designed to show that the queues for the picture were in front of the theatre by night as well as by day.
