Fast Moving: Action
Film, ‘Hot Cargo’ At
Cameron Saturday
Film-goerg who relish pictures
that proceed at a rapid pace and pro-
vide action in every reel, should more
than welcome Parumount’s “Hot Car-
go,” which comes to the Cameron
Theatre Saturday, preceded by ad-
vance notices proclaiming it as Pine-
Thomas at their best. As this famous
producer-teuin has earned an enviable
reputation for “movies that move,"
and with the presence in the cust of
three such stars as William Gargan,
Jean Rogers and Philip Reed, “Hot
Cargo” sounds like exciting enter-
tainment.
This latest Pine-Thomas thriller,
is melodrama with a timely touch,
since it concerns returning soldiers.
It is the story of two ex-tank corps
men (Gargan and Reed), who stop off
in the redwood country of California
to carry out a list of last-minute re-
quests made by one of their buddies,
who was killed in the war.
The plot begins in a light, humor-
ous vein, hut, when the two men dis-
cover that their buddy’s family is
about to lose their small lumber bus-
iness, they decide to stick around and
fight.
They soon discover the culprits
who have been using under-handed
methods to sabotage the family’s
business, and in a series of slam-bang
encounters, they bring the gang to
justice.

‘Gentleman From
Texas, Due At Milam
Friday and Saturday
“The Gentleman From Texas” at
the Milam Theatre Friday and Sat-
urday, is expected to be one of the
most suspenseful, exciting outdoor
dramas of the year. Featured in
Monogram’s special Scott R. Dunlap
production, are Johnny Mack Brown,
Claudia Drake and Raymond Hatton.
Johnny Mack Brown is sent by
Wells-Fargo to the frontier town of
Rimrock to investigate lawlessness
which is running rampant. He is
sworn in as a marshal in an en-
deavor to bring the outlaws to jus-
tice and restore law to the town.
How he traps the bandits who run
the town provides the thrilling plot
with tense moments and much action.
The supporting cast includes Reno

Due Gay Role at Milam
Glamorizing Anne Baxter comes
under the hending of gilding the lily,
but in her latest motion picture,
20th Century-Fox’s Technicolor spec-
tacle, “Smoky,” due Sunday and Mon-
day at the Milam Theatre, tho beau-
tiful screen star gets her chance to
be gay.
Seen mostly in dramatic roles,1
Anne was quite pleased with the
opportunity to do something light.
“People tend to tire of players who
are always cast in heavy roles,” she
said, "no matter how good they are.
Actors and actresses need a change
of pace, a variation in their type of
parts.
“In my last picture I played a neu-
rotic girl, and before that I had two
or three tragic roles in war stories.
The studio figured that an outdoor
picture- like ‘Smoky’ would give me
a chance to smile.”
Accordingly, Directer Louis King
went all-out in applying the “make
’em gay” technique to Anne. At his
suggestion, the film includes a scene
at a swimming hole on a Western
ranch where Miss Baxter disports

heraelf in a white swimming suit, es-
pecially designed for "distinctive ap-
peal.” This will be the first time
Anne has pluyed u bathing scene or
revealed as much as a knee on the
screen, since she has always prided
herself on her Thespian talents rath-
er than on her "cheese-cake” appeal.
In addition, the “make her gay
technique is evident in her clothes
(one of the year’s costliest ward-
robes), her scenes with the film’s
star, Fred MacMurray, and Burl
Ives, and the general "bright atmos-
phere” the story gains which is set
in the wide-open spuces.
All-in-all, the change of pace was
welcomed by Anne. "My friends,”
she says, “have kidded me about play-
ing leuding lady to a horse. But I get
to ride and rope, chase wild horses
and herd cattle. And in the end I get
my man, for a change."
