The show will re main open until 10 o clock each evening. This year. General motors like All other Large industries Are More or less disrupted by the War As they with others have made All their facilities available for government service. In Winnipeg the Gen eral motors office building on Assiniboine Avenue was handed Over entirely for government use. Despite All this the 1940 motor show promises to be the most elaborate showing Ever produced in Winnipeg by general motors who have spared nothing in their Effort to create a setting to excite admiration As Well As form a background for their 1340 product a line of cars which by themselves Are master pieces of Beauty in line and color and approximating perfection in performance. By Frank Morriss nobody in the sunburned suburb of Hollywood fills me with such annoyance As producer Walter Wanger. Or. Wanger is the Cinema Hall. Capital s leading exponent of saying stage a lot and meaning very Little mule a few he came out with a film called private lives. It was a smash hit and it was off the beaten path of motion pictures in that ii concerned itself with the doctors and patients of a mental Home or. Wanger basked in a sea of complimentary adjectives and is sued Many statements to the effect that the motion picture was a Strong vital institution Etc., Etc., Etc. He threw a few Well aimed brickbats All of them deserved a1 the slush the people in Hollywood were turning out. He refused said or. Wanger to Cater to vulgar appetites and he was out to tackle films with controversial themes. He gave for All the world the impression of St. George going out to Battle the dragon. Warner Brothers Active since that time Wanger has been doing a lot of talking about tackling unusual films. Without half the fanfare. Warner Brothers a rival studio has been turning them out regularly. Wanger it is True made a film called blockade which took sides on the Spanish civil War ques Tion. But he buried his dynamite in plot Plush and Madeleine car Roll. Meanwhile Warners had produced Pasteur Zola Black fury Juarez. Or. Ehrlich s magic Bullet and others. Wanger s output during the last year has included such cinematic Cream puffs As Winter carnival which had such daring innovations As Ann Sheridan in backless gowns and Campus cuties in fake Snow and the House across the Bay. You can have Little quarrel with a producer who comes out and says that he s in the business to make Money and that he s putting out pictures that will bring coins to the Box office. That s honest. But you can get slightly nauseated with stuffed shirts who talk a lot and do very Little. James Roosevelt recently formed his own company and came out with an honest state Blind entertained by women s club the Manitoba league of the Blind. Monday evening was entertained by the women s service club in their clubroom at Portage Avenue and Sherburn Street. Charles Hetherington president introduced mrs. D. C. Hos sock president of the service club who Ofifi Atco As chairman. Those Tak ing part in the programme included mrs. R. Perkins miss Isabel Spencer l. Dunn. Georgina an Derson. Petition fails to find sponsor no Champion could be found so far among the 55 members of the legislature to present a petition of a. G. Anderson 344 Garry Street who this week is asking the legis lature to investigate a recent Law suit in which he was interested. Or. Anderson is still making his rounds in the legislative corridors but with an adjournment planned for this week it is not expected he will be successful in getting the House to consider his petition. Merit to the effect that he was ing at the popular Market and that his Only was to make Money. We know just what to expect from the . President s son and we won t be disappointed. But when or. Wanger talks for years about filming a rousing screen version of Vincent Sheean s Book. Personal history and then. At the last minute Falls Back on his promises that s another Story. Wanger s Alibi for watering Down the tale was that some of the Back ground scenes made in Europe went Down at sea. Only this week Warner Bros came out with the statement that it was sending a Man to Europe to make background shots for a film it had purchased. This department has several grains of Salt which it is reserving for or. Wanger s next publicity dish. K. Of c. Open soldiers club on the Northwest Corner of Graham Avenue and main Street in what was formerly a drugstore the knights of Columbus opened wednesday a recreational club room for All members of the Cana Dian Active service Force to be open daily from 11 To 10 . It is furnished with Reading matter writing materials and table games. Chaplain service is also provided for. The club is under the auspices of Winnipeg and Provencher councils of the and directed by a Board consisting of Frank Shea and j. E. Dumas co chairman Lou Driscoll Secre tary treasurer f. H. Holyoake j s. Whalley or. Emmatt Dwyer p. J. O Brien. When the soldiers go into Camp at silo a similar arrangement will be set up there by the knights of Columbus y.m.c.a., and Salva Tion army and each organization will maintain its identity.
