By ROY RAGSDALE
If many of you have been lis-
tening to the tops in popular
tunes lately you have no doubt
heard the no.w song ‘‘The Trouble
With Harry.” It was .inspired by
Alfred Hitchcock’s new comedy,
"The Trouble With Harry.’’
Hitchcock is one producer and
director who always has a differ-
ent twist to his movie plots. Such
pictures as "Rear Window."
“Dial M For Murder,” and
"Spellbound” have given him the
distinction of being the most
sought-after man in Hollywood.

“In The Trouble With Harry”
Hitchcock has chosen Edmund
Gwenn, John Forsythe and a new-
comer, Shirley MacLaine, to play
Texas Theatre, there will be a
for u two-day run.
In contrast to the comedy at the
Texas Theatie, there will be a
red-letter day at the Brady Thea-
tre also. Starting a three day run
Sunday will be “Helen of Troy” in
Cinemascope. This is a spectacle
that you have been rending Bbout.
Filmed at a cost of millions of
dollars plus years of research,
“Helen of Troy” is a screen classic.

all about Harry.
Who is Harry and what was his
trouble ?
The answer is simply that he is
dead, and that is bad trouble. This

j off because each of these stars
has won overnight praise for t
their portrayals.
"Picnic” is the name of a very ;
special motion picture to begin
