AS SHORT A TIME ago as a few vesterdays, the booking of a Western into the Rivoli for top billing would seldom have been thought of. Deluxe neighborhood houses saved the outdoor action films for the Saturday matinees if they were shown at all. But now its different. The trend in the past few months has been to films of the wide open spaces and even such studios as Republic have been easing up on the purse strings to turn out better and bigger productions. The public now demands them, particularly those made by Gene Autry. So it is that his “Sunset in Wyoming" is on tomorrow through Saturday plus “Puddin’ Head” starring Judy Canova. $ & #5

BRENDA MARSHALL (no relative, worse luck) at long last has been given top and solo billing in a picture—"Singapore Woman” which is at the Fountain Square tonight through Friday. On the same bill is another player who has been boosted to stardom because of his work in “City for Conquest ’—Arthur Kennedy. He's starred in “Knockout” a tale of the prize ring which features Olympe Bradna. 2 2 =

THE BRITISH BATTLE fleet in action is shown in “Battle of the Atlantic” on tonight at the Paramount along with “A Man Betrayed” starring John Wayne and Frances Dee.

THIS IS THE final day for a revival bill of two fine pictures at the Esquire: Jane Austen's “Pride and Prejudice” starring Laurence Olivier and Greer Garson and “Blockade” with Henry Fonda and Madeleine Carroll. 4 & #2 NOW THAT Claude Allison has moved to the Emerson he has taken with him some stunts and conveniences he operated at the Sheridan. There is a free phone the patrons may use to call cabs or the kids can use to call home, parcels mav be checked at the door. Claude's aquarium is being moved to the new theater, and a Kiddies birthday club is being formed. (Each child who registers receives a card on his or her birthday which is a pass to the show.)

THE GRANADA'S all-action bill for tomorrow and Friday includes “Phantom Submarine” starring Anita Louise, and Tim Holt in “Robbers of the Range.”

There will be no admission, he said, but a voluntary collection will be taken for the Decatur Library Fund. . Bergen, who said he lived in Decatur with his parents from the time he was 6 until he was 15, said he planned to surprise the school board with a gift—"something nice.”

FILMS TO BE MADE IN BUENOS AIRES

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 20.—At least two U. S. companies, Columbia and M-G-M, will make several pictures in Buenos Aires studios, with executives and scripts from Hollywood and actors and technicians hired in Argentina.
