The same year on July 8, he was promoted to major general and assumed his present post us commanding general of the divi sion. Gen. Ainsworth has held many posts in the reserve corps of the IT. S.

AH that we intend to do is shed more kudos oh Kirk Douglas, Doris Day, and Harry James. Douglas proves the old adage that a great actor can rise above poor mater ial. He is as heatedly intense as ever in the role of Richard Martin, the jazz-playing trumpeter who expected the impossible from music. Somebody manages to give artificially penned lines, the decep tive sound of power and e tion, and puffs at the trum though he doesn’t know that James is doing the actual playing, In the capable hands of Doris Day and Jamea, the fllm’r music is its most worthwhile feature. Doris pours her peach es and cream voice over favorites like “The Very Thought of You.’L"! Msy Be Wrong,” and ‘‘With A Song In My Heart,” while the invisible James plsys an alternately jazz and sweet trumpet with a zest and warmth have lately been missing his style.
