In "Hold Back the Dawn", the handâ€" some Bover is a suave European drel whose interest in women is in direct proportion to the size of their bank accounts. With the once gay spots of the Continent gone, perhaps forever, he turns; to new lush fields in America but finds the United States closed to him by a small matter of the quota. "Ringside Maisie" was directed by Edwin L. Marin and was produced by 5. Walter Ruben. Something new in loveâ€"making, even for Charles r, will come to the Broadway theatre Thursday, FPriday, Friday midnight and Saturday, Dec. 4th, 5th and 6th, when Paramount‘s "Hold Back the Dawn‘" opens with Boyer, Olivia de Havilland and Paulette Goddard in the starring roles. According to the unanimous opinion cf preview critics, the darkâ€"eyed Gallic actor has the most exciting part of his career in this Arthur Hornblow, Jr., production. Marrying an unsuspecting American girl just to get across the border, and then planning to toss her aside in favâ€" our of a former dancing partner, doesn‘t worry the Boyer conscience any in this fastâ€"moving romantic drama. Miss de Havilland plays opposite Boyer as the little school teacher, his victim, and Paulette Goddard is the glamorous and worldly wise dancer. Others in the topâ€"flight cast are Walter Abel, as a US. immigration inâ€" spector; Victor Francen, the famous French screen and stage ssar who is making his Hollywood debut; Curt Bois, Rosemary DeCamp, Eric Feldary, Nesâ€" tor Paiva, Eva Puig, Michtline Chierel, Madeleine LeBeau, Billy Lee and Miâ€" khail Rasumny. Boyer, Olivia de Haviland and Paulette Goddard in Starring Roles in "Hold Back the Dawn." Director Mitchell Leisen has made use of a curious camera technique in introducing hisy story by shooting a "scene within a scene." Boyer breaks into a Paramount studio set while Leisen is directing a picture. In this sequence Leisen played himself, us‘ng the actual set and actual players for another Paramount picture, "I Wanted Wings‘". Hence, the Broadway theatre audiences will see Lesen directing Veronica Lake, Brian Donlevy and Richard Wehbhb in real scenes. The sizreen play for ‘"‘Hold Back the Dawn" was written by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder, from a story by Ketti Frings.

There are many people in almost every part of the country, who are of the opinion that we are unable to build a real tank in this country. Let me assure you that this is not so!l We are building them, both the Infantry and Cruiser type of tank, and every month sees production increased. The assembly of the two types of tanksâ€"infantry and cruiserâ€"was unâ€" dertaken by two of the largest locoâ€" motive works in Eastern ‘Canada. The Infantry tanks are built to British deâ€" sign. They are very mobile, can turn around at full speed, in their own length, and it is practically impossible for them to become bogged down. They carry three men, the driver, a gunner and a radio operator. Difficulty Over Rivets A tank is not constructed like an automobile, on a chassis; for the body itself becomes th> chassis. The two sides of the body are lined un on the assembly table, and then bolted into place by means of two cross members. Then the pieces are riveted. Here anâ€" other difficulty was encoutered. Riâ€" vited plates, in the ordinary sense of the word, are unsafe, because the orâ€" dinary rivet if hit by a bullet would be driven back endangering the crew inside. A method of riveting by means of pressure, instead of hammering was instituted. The red hot rivet is placed into the holes of the plates, and a huge machine with two jaws clamps down on each side of the rivet. This type of riveting causes the rivet to expand in the middle, thereby making it safe as is cannot be driven back. When the body has been formed, the unit passes onto another table, and the bottom is fastened on. The turret housing is next attached, the mechanâ€" ism for revolving the turret put in place, the tread guards and the assemâ€" blies for carrying the treads put on. ## #* *4 #4 *# # ## *# # # + #* + + ## *# # #4* * ** *# .0 *# + #4 *# # #4 + # #4 # # #4 # + #4* *# .0 * _% _% .“. .0 #+* #4 + # # # #4 #* # * #* #* *# # #+* # 4# # ## # # #4 # *# #* #* # # #* # + *# # # #* * /+ .0..0. *# _# * # *# #. .00.00 # 0“0 # # 4 ## #. * 0.00. © .0 «» # **"* #4* *# t# ## "@ #8 Every part that goes into these tanks has to be specially machined to a perâ€" fection that allow only four oneâ€" thousandths of an inch variation. The tread guards alone comprise a total of 6@ different parts. These infantry tanks are powered by Diesel Engines. When I looked inside one tank I wondered how it could posâ€" sibly carry its crew. There hardly seemed space enough for one man, let alone three.. Not a single inch of space is wasted. After each tank is completed, it has to go to the noise proofing room. Here with its engine running, it is thoroughâ€" ly checked for radio interference.
