"Let's Dance"
Jayhawker Theater
This is my candidate for the least musical musical of the year. Up to now, that is. With the exception of Fred Astraire's dancing, the only attribute t his
thing has is one western number The Betty Hutton who once was Annie Oakley is not herself in the Jayhawk's current sensation.
Assuming for the moment that the movie has a plot, I shall undertake to tell you about it. The two protagonists are a song and dance team that was separated by the last recognized war. When the two meet again on U.S.O. tours, Astaire is surprised to learn that Miss Hutton is the mother of a child. But she's a widow now, which makes for comparatively few complications.

The rest of the movie finds Miss Burtton and Aistaire not only fighting between themselves but also the parents of Miss Hutton's deceased husband for the right to keep the child. Somehow the director pulls this all together, and the result is "Let's Dance."
A mother-in-law enters the picture and attempts to raise the child in Boston's stiff-lip section. This compels our active Miss Hutton to flee, with the youngster., to New York, where she finds Astaire, who, in short order, gets her a job.
To see all this on celluloid is scarcely worth sixty cents.
"The Big Hangover Granada Theater
is on hand to lift his chin and reassure everybody with soft talk. Elizabeth Taylor is attractive and Hollywood seems to think that is all that is needed.
Mr. Johnson plays the part of a young attorney, who during the war, to keep from drowning, had to stand in 100-year-old brandy up to his chin in the cellar of a French monastery. Consequently, a mere sip of spirits converts this lad into a raging drunk.
Much effort has gone into this muddled affair. It's a shame it was all wasted.
As a junior lawyer, he is under the employ of playful and unscrupulous attorneys who take advantage of his vulnerability. He is also pursued by the boss' daughter (the untalented Miss Taylor), a student of psychiatry. Along with this, lawyer Johnson tries to do right by a Chinese doctor who is being evicted from "restricted" apartments by his conniving employers.

Ancient Religious Scrolls 'Prove' Foretelling Of Christ
Chicago—(U.P.)—Ancient religious scrolls discovered in the Holy land give "proof" for the first time that Christ's coming actually was foretold before He came, a high Syrian religious authority said recently.
They also reveal where John the Baptist may have got the ideas he preached to the followers of Jesus, and the probable source of may Biblical phrases such as "I am the way, the truth and the life," he said.
It is hoped that "soon" the latest interpretations of the ancient scrolls can be published, along with translations, his Grace Mar Athanasius Yeshu Samuel, the Syrian archbishop of Jerusalem, said.
The Archbishop, who brought several of the scrolls to the United States, said as the result of study of the Isaiah scroll it is regarded as indisputable fact that Christ's coming was foretold long before the event took place.
The scroll, which contains the entire book of Isaiah and verses foretelling the Messiah, predates Christ's birth by several centuries and contradicts theories that the book and the prophecies were written after the coming and merely made to conform with what was an already accomplished fact.
Similarly the "Habbakuk commentary" scroll reveals the prophecies in the book of Habbakuk as applying to "specific historic events" instead of "vague symbolism," the Archbishop said.
Many persons believe the Isaiah scroll found in the Dead Sea cave was the same manuscript placed in Jesus' hands in the temple as a youth when his followers wanted to show Him how His coming had been awaited, as described in the New Testament (Luke IV:17).
Many circumstances point to this belief, the archbishop said—the location of the cave, near where the temple probably stood; the careful state of preservation; and the likelihood that these scrolls may have been placed there by close followers of Christ.
But proof is difficult if not impossible, the archbishop said, and this phase of the scrolls' interpretation may remain a permanent controversy.
The serolls also give the "most positive" indication of where John the Baptist went when he meditated in the desert. John probably joined up with the Essenes, an ancient sect which believed in repentance, group piety and which expressed early dissatisfaction with pre-Christian religious forms.
niggers form. The "manual of discipline" scroll contains these ideas later expressed by John, and also has many parallels
to phrases in the new testament book of John—"I am the way" "eternal life" and "children of light."
