up among Hammett’s
best sellers is “The Glass Key,”
a mystery charged with suspense
and action, and enhanced by an
exciting three-cornered romance.
Paramount brings it to the
screen of the Grand Theatre next
Wednesday with a strong, star-
studded cast headed by Brian
Donlevy* Veronica Lake and Alan
Ladd and supported by Bonita
Granville, Richard Denning and
Joseph Calleia.
Word has it that the unravel-
ing of the plot at the end of the
film represents a typical Dash-
iell Hammett surprise, so “The
Glass Key” sounds like the kind
pearance at a Wichita Falls Hos-[°f thriller movie-goers should

most powerful roles of his dis-
tinguished career in “Souls at
Sea,” the epic-of the sea which
opens Wednesday at the Liberty
Theatre.
Cooper plays the hero of a true
story in “Souls at Sea”, some-
what similar to the true life roles
he portrayed in Pride of the
Yankees” and “Sergeant York.”
In “Souls at Sea” he re-enacts
the role played in real life by
a sea captain
of the 40’s, whose famous trial
for manslaughter on the high
seas is one of the ocean’s most
amazing and thrilling true tales.
Cooper is supported by George

MLON” . . . HOW/DO£F^s2^M ;
Friday afternon we peeked in
on the Production room of the
Red Cross iri our city. In Surg-
• ical Dressings ’ we found the fol-
lowing ladies 'busy as could be
, folding bandages, and Mrs. Mike
Baxter, chairman of the Surgical
Dressings, going from one table
to another helping and watching
the work. The ladies in that de-
partment Friday afternon were:
[ Mesdames Walter Baggett, Leon-
ard Gillum, Tom Bailey, B. M. of fortune, stalwart Gary Cooper,
1 Dinsmore, N. S. Nelson, Sam
Vaughn, Roy Scafe, W. A. Holt, adventurer in what is among the
J. A. Foy, Tom Self and Mrs. Le-
Claire. ... The Tattler wishes
very much we could give a long
list of women in the sewing de-
partment, but only Mrs. Brown-
lee, Mrs. J. D. Johnson and Mrs.
Marlow were in that department,
making convalescent robes of
which there is‘many badly need-
ed. Mrs. Faulkner was at the
registration table of the Blood
Donors, and reported she had
several ask to go next Thurs-
day when Electra gives blood for
the fighting men. At Home Ser-
vice of the Red Cross in the
Schlaffke Building the women in
that department are on duty all
day taking nanres for the Blood
Bank, as well as helping the folks
at home in their problems having
to do with the men in the army.
AH these women give their time
and they have home duites too,
but just the same a major part
of the days go tp the Red Cross.
