AT MANLEY MEET
Will Deal With Priest’s Inter
est In Developing Youth
Of Wilmington
A deep interest in youth, not
only in athletics but in character
building was among Father Man
ley’s outstanding attributes.
His participation in the Golden
Glove contests, in which southeast
ern North Carolina has achieved
distinction, was not confined to the
physical training of participants,
but also to the shaping of their
mental outlook.
The boys who came under his
influence during his pastorate at
St. Mary’s universally testify to
his qualities as leader and friend,
and manv whom he trained are
performing adult tasks today with
clearer vision of life’s responsi
bilities as a result of his encour
agement.
This is one phase of the citizen
ship of Father Manley which will
be discussed at the memorial ser
vices in his honor next Sunday
afternoon at the New Hanover
High school auditorium.
Because of his long and close
association with Father Manley in
the sponsorship of the Golden
Gloves and other athletic contests,
Phil Buchheit, of the Star-News
advertising staff, was chosen by
the sponsors of the service to deal
with this side of his many-sided
career in Wilmington. ' 3
Movie Revues
“VIVA CISCO KID’’ MARKS
ROYAL THEATRE PROGRAM
Cesar Romero scores again as
O. Henry’s lovable outlaw in ‘Viva
Cisco Kid,” the 20th Centruy-Fox
picture which opened yesterday at
the Royal theatre. Romero who
first played the dashing Caballero
in "The Cisco Kid and the Lady”
is even better as he loves, laughs
and shoots his way through this
new film.
Cisco’s heart is set on pretty
Jean Rogers, and his courtship is
punctuated with such distracting
incidents as getting accused of
murder, being trapped in a mine
cave-in and being left for dead by
the toughest hombre in the West.
But it’s all for love—and does he
have fun
Romero is accompanied by his
fat, faithful and funny amigo, Gor
ito> again played by Chris-Pin Mar
tin, and Minor Watson and Stanley
Fields also score.
Special shorts include “Spills
—an—d Thrills,” and “Popular
Science.” 4
“REMEMBER THE NIGHT”
IS nFFF.BEn AT RI.TflTT
What to do when a district at
torney falls in love with a girl
he’s supposed to prosecute?
The answer is supplied in heart
warming-comedy fashion in Para
mount’s gay “Remember the
Night,” which opens today at the
Bijou theatre, with Barbara Stan
wyck co-starred as the girl with
Fred MacMurray as the district
attorney.
It all happens during a hectic
Christmas vacation when MacMur
ray, a soft-hearted lad, imbued
with Christmas spirit, postpones
his case against the girl — who is
in for a gem theft—and even goes
bail for her so that she won’t have
to spend the holiday in jail.
Then it develops that the girl
has no place to go, so Fred takes
her home to his mother, on an
Indiana farm, to spend her vaca
tion there, with the strict under
standing that the prosecution is to
go on as per schedule and with
no concessions once the holidays
are over.
The latest Paramount News pre
cedes the feature on the program.4
"MY FAVORITE WIFE” IS
FEATURED AT CAROLINA
How a gay young attorney unin
tentionally becomes a bigamist
with two lovely wives on his hands
who are trying to outwit each
other for his affections is
ofacih errifnostihesfsshr mff
the breezy basis of Irene Dunne
and Cary Grant’s latest hilarious
offering, “My Favorite Wife,”
which opens at the Carolina today.
From the sophisticated pens
of Bella and Samuel Spewack, “My
Favorite Wife” concerns the mira
culous return of woman, presum
ably lost at sea, after a seven-year
absence, to find her handsome hus
band just starting out on his honey
moon with another beautiful wife.

in a resort hotel, with the frantic
husband desperately striving to
keep his kissless bride in ignorance
of his first wife until they can flee
home. His former spouse, however,
intercepts the newlyweds, greeting
them at their home where the
groom’s mother introduces her as a
family friend. Eventually, the hus
band learns that a he-man scien
tist kept his wife company alone
for seven years on that desert isle
. . . and the husband’s bewilder
ment, the second wife’s kissless
state, the scientist’s desire to mar
ry his island companion and the
Eirst wife’s concern about recap
turing the husband from the bride
result in an uproarious stream of
implications and side-splitting
merriment.

the theatre is presenting “The Flag
Speaks” as an extraordinary spec
ial attraction in conjunction with
;he feature picture. All real Amer
cans should see this subject as it

Potentate Of Shriners
MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 12—<A>>—
George Forrest Olendorf, 67-year
old Springfield, Mo., advertising
executive, was elected potentate of
all North American Shriners at
their annual convention here today
and Screen Comedian Harold Lloyd
started on the 10-year climb to the
same post.
Olendorf’s elevation from deputy
imperial potentate was expected as
a custom of long standing. Lloyd’s
election as imperial outer guard,
predicted before the convention,
was by acclamation after two other
candidates withdrew. His was the
only contested post.
Garden Of Bullitt’s
Home Become Battlefield
PARIS, June 12.—(iP)—U. S. Am
bassador William C. Bullitt lost his
white marble Chantilly chateau to
the war today when the spacious
gardens of the estate became a bat
tleground.
Bullitt was in Paris at the time
the fighting engulfed the Chantilly
region, just north of Paris, and he
announced that he would remain
here, for the time being at least.
The fate of Bullitt’s place was the
same that befell the villa of Ambas
sador Anthony J. Drexel Biddle near
Warsaw last September.
RED CROSS REPORTS NO BAD
TREATMENT OF PRISONERS
GENEVA, Switzerland (#)—Inter
national Red Cross officials, just
back from an inspection of prison
camps in Great Britain, France
and Germany, say they found no
cases of ill treatment and no vio
lations of any international law
governing war prisoners.
Germany, according to neutral
sources in Switzerland, could swap
10 French-British prisoners for ev
ery German held by the Allies and
still have tens of thousands left.
These sources estimate that Ger
many’s total advantage in prison
ers, including Belgians and Dutch,
is close to 50 to 1. Germany
still has approximately 250,000 Po
lish prisoners, many of whom have
been put into labor battalions.
The International Red Cross
prisoners’ bureau, an all-Swiss
organization which coordinates
the work of national societies, so
far has handled 587,000 letters be
tween prisoners and their relatives
and 220,000 other communications.
Thousands of prisoners were ex
changed through the Red Cross
during the last war, but so far
only a few interned civilians have
passed through Switzerland in this
war. 1
Nationalism was once so feeble
in the Balkans that the Roumani
ans thought they were Greeks, mis
taking their rulers’ nationality for
their' own.
WILLKIE EXPECTS
GOOD C.O.P. VOTE
Estimates He Will Receive 70
Votes On First Ballot
At Convention
WASHINGTON, June 12—Ml—
Wendell Willkie of New York es
timated today that his first-ballot
strength for the presidential nomi
nation in the republican convention
would be about 70 votes, rising on
later ballots.
“Start small and grow,” the uti
lities executive told a press con
ference. “I think whoever is nomi
nated will get it by the sixth bal
lot.”
He had just announced that Rep.
Halleck of Indiana, Willkie’s na
tive state, would place his name
in nomination.
Willkie said his delegate strength
was scattered widely among many
states and indicated that its real
growth would start after favorite
son pledges were disposed of. He
said he had received promises of
support from individual delegates
in Minnesota, Massachusetts, New
Jersey, New York, Utah, Missouri,
Indiana and elsewhere.
“I have talked with delegates in
27 states,” he said. “They are an
unusually intelligent and serious
minded group. It will be no con
trolled convention.”
Replying to questions about his
political history, Willkie said he
had never been a member of the
Liberty league nor had he contri
buted to it.
“I did contribute to the Demo
cratic party,” he said. “That was
in 1932.
“My democratic contribution in
1932 was not large. I gave $150.
I voted for Alf. M. Landon in 1936.
“I did not leave the democratic
party. It left me. I was brought
up in a party that revered Thomas
Jefferson, who opposed a strongly
centralized government. I came up
in a party that had Andrew Jack
son as a patron saint. He paid the
national debt. That is not the new
deal party.” 4
URGES PLANE CARRIERS
NEW YORK, June 12—(J*)—Rear
Admiral Charles E. Courtney, re
turning from his command of the
navy’s European squadron at Lis
bon, Portugal, said today the wide
expanses of the Atlantic and Pa
cific required aircraft carriers cap
able of placing the nation’s air
force in “the middle of the ocean.”
The Phoenicians were the first
to exploit countries bordering on
the Mediterranean.
