The direction, under the aegis of Michael Curtiz, is flawless, keeping the riotous situations just far en- ough off the slapstick side as they go along at an almost breathless pace. The script, written by Casey Robinson and Sig Herzig and bas- ed on a story by Wallace Sullivan, has far more story value than the usual comedy, and the dialogue, is very witty.

Li Yee Wan, 20-year-old escort bureau girl, testified at Central Magistracy this morning in the case in which she is charging Wong Hei with stealing gold rings, from her after she had been drugged.

The girl had alleged that defen- dant had given her chewing-gum, after she became unconscious.
