OUR GUIDE · TO THE CINEMAS
"Elephant Boy" (King's Theatre, to-day)-Something จนเ of the ordinary here. Not a really great film, but one which everyone, including the kiddles, can thoroughly enjoy. Added attraction together with this picture is the screening of the Panay bombing.
"True Confession" (Queen's and Alhambra Theatres, 10-day) --A thrilling comedy-drama in which Paramount's popular team, Carole Lombard and Fred MacMurray, are supported by John Barrymore and Una Merkel. Carole's part is that of a young wife who has such * reputation for lying that, even when she is accused of murder, her husband will not belleve her protestations of Innocence.

Thai is Tommy Farr's reply, con- tained in a letter to Dan Parker of the New York Daily Mirror, to Joe Louis's rmark in a Liberty Maga- zhe article that the British and Empire heavyweight champion was "the dirtiest fighter I ever met."
Parker, sports columnist, pub- Ished Farr's letter in his daily column. It hus attracted consider- able, attention.
"In spite of Louis's unquestioned boxing brillance," Farr's letter con- tinues, "I any he has one vital de- fect in his fighting make-up. He does not punch with his left, but rather does he fick with an open glove. This, of course, Is against all the rules of baxing and no punch so delivered should count."

Joe forgets though the punches that bruised his black body and being black didn't show. But I bet he carried and doctored them for several days.

"Istory
Mado at Night" (Majestle Theatre, to-day). This Frank Borzage pleture starts off very well, but the end is rather conventional. Nevertheless it pro- vides good entertainment. Jean Arthur, Charles Boyer, Colin Clive and Leo Carrillo have the principal
parts.
Sunday shooting is having a tremendous effect on the Associo- tion, despite the fact that the Range is allotted only once a month for this purpose. The first shoot under the new arrangement, which whS
held late in 1037, taxed the range accommodation to the umost. The second shoot will be held next Sun- day and it is anticipated that an even greater number of members will scek accommodation on the Tanges, not only with service rifle, but with revolver and gun.
