This is the story of a guy from

became a hero in the eyes of^the
public, and a plague to those Who
kneW him best. Hi- fists got hirp

Kirk Douglas hits the screen
in his porttby|d of Midge Ran

per-cut to the jaW, and is noth
ing short of sensational. Get
ting into the fighting game by
'’accident. Midge, under the able
» guidance of his manager, fights
his Way to the top, only to make
one mistake. He wins a fight
instjead of losing it. After giv
ing Midge a rough going over,
the big boys pigeon hole him in
the fighting profession.

A Woman’s Secret (RKO)
starring Maureen O’Hara, Mel-
vyn Douglas, and Gloria Gra-
hamc. (Campus)
This film should be kept secret
from all, because you will be in
the dark before and after seeing
. I it.
Maureen O’Hara readily con
fesses the shooting of her pro
tege, Gloria Grahame. Then, af
ter much aimless flashback to
depict events leading up to the
incident, it is revealed that the
shooting was a pure accident.
Melvyn Douglas is thrown An
the film\for good measure And
manages to get lost with the rest
i ,of the cast.\Miss Grahamef voice
is easy to listen to. and As usual
, Maureen p’Hafca adds her beauty
to the scene. Anything else you
find is pyrely coincidental.

Midge discards the blond, and

His last fight is as gory and rean
