ILgTTv 68 column breaks, but Jane would clip them anyway for her scrapbook, explaining to her friends, "Why, they spelled my name wrong. How careless of them." She'll always have a tender spot for the photographers. Because of them she got her Hollywood contract. Jane was singing with an orchestra in Washington when a photographer suggested that she pose in the first uniforms issued to the WACS. The photographs appeared in a magazine. And three producers immediately sent their talent scouts to contact her. "Why, I'm so eager to have my picture taken," Jane has told her photographer friends in nightclubs, "that I'll probably trip you if you don't take it." Your Guide To Current Films Continued from page 15 men make one last desperate attempt to swing a victory for the near-defeated Confederacy by capturing the West. Instead, because they rescue a Yankee girl from Shoshones on the warpath, Errol and his men become primarily concerned with saving their own hides. The girl, Patrice Wymore, is engaged to a Yankee officer who comes searching for her with an entourage of three soldiers and three Indian scouts. Using Patrice as a decoy, the seven men are captured by Flynn, but two of the Indians are killed while trying to escape. The other gets back to his people and returns with hundreds of warriors bent on swift revenge. Based on an episode in American history, this shows the heroism of a handful of men whose mission was doomed from the start. Cry Danger Olympic — RKO EXCITING, swift-paced thriller straight out of the hard-fisted, tough-talking school of mystery writing. Dick Powell has served five years of his life sentence for armed robbery and murder when Marine veteran Richard Erdman produces an alibi which shows Dick was innocent of the charge. With Dick free, several rather rotten characters, including menace William Con rad, attempt to steer him away from his objective: to find out who framed him and why. Once he has the solution, Dick figures his buddy who was sent up with him will also be exonerated. It takes a lot to convince Dick that the price of many things, including friendship, often comes high. Lending assistance, good and otherwise, to Dick are Rhonda Fleming and Detective Regis Toomey. Wyoming Mail (Technicolor) Universal-International WHAT with all the corrupt officials and underlings, according to this, it's a wonder early post offices ever got a toe-hold in the rough and ready West. Stephen McNally is hired by the postal chiefs to clean up some mighty dirty" stickups that are threatening to ruin the newly installed mail-transportationby-railroad. Steve pretends he's an escaped convict in order to facilitate getting to the top man of the mail-train marauders. After copious close shaves, he gets his boys, and girl, too, in the person of Alexis Smith, saloon singer extraordinaire. Plenty of commotion, confusion and fisticuffs, after which McNally and his opponents look as if they've been liberally doused with catsup — can't waste Technicolor, y'know. . . . Nothing Can Stop Bette! Continued from page 26 industry, she remained unparalleled. However, the time can come when it's possible for studios and their stars to outgrow each other. When Bette felt she could no longer cope with conditions, she decided to move on. It wasn't an easy decision to make. For one thing, there was a reputed $200,000 per picture contract involved and rumors were rumbling that the Davis career was careening. They granted her request to be released. Parting was such sweet sorrow! "I thought I'd have to wait at least a year," Bette confided to this writer, "before I'd find a good script. But instead of one — I found two! And now the most wonderful thing has happened to me. I believed in those scripts the way I used to believe when I made pictures like 'Jezebel,' 'Dark Victory,' 'The Letter,' 'The Corn Is Green' — to name a few. As a result, I have my self-respect as an actress again — something I lost when I had to play roles that weren't right in pictures that were wrong. Nothing can stop me from now on!" One only has to look at Bette these days to know that nothing can stop her, perhaps from being even better than she ever was before. That "good egg" appellation was only the beginning of a local reaction to the prevalent Davis spirit. At 20th Century-Fox, where she made "All About Eve," co-workers and the working press discovered the Bette of old was back.
