Champions A Step Nearer Their Second Trophy


(jLITHEROE I Amateur League champions Langho, took a


step -nearer their ambition of adding trie Aitken Shield io the championship trophy when they defeated [Clitheroe Catholics by four goals to nil on Saturday. ■


Langhoi who defeated,, Low


Moor. thel. previous week, ate the first club; to reacn the second round of the contest, as both of the remaining first round fixtures on Saturday had to be postponed. Both ' C.R.G.S. Old Boys, who were to have played C ^ tb um , and Trinidad, drawn against Slaidbumj had difficulty in rais­ ing a full team, and so the games were postponed fmtil April 11th.


The, most spectacular feat in


Saturday's Aitken Bhield pro­ gramme was Read United’s per­ formance ' at Calderstones in - a preliminary. round replay.


■When- tne teams met at Read


the previous week, it was Calder­ stones who took the eye with a come-back effort that earned them a 4-4 draw. But the tables were welj and truly turned on Saturday.


Twenty-five minutes from the


end, Calderstones were ahead-by three goals to one, but their defence cnimbled in the teeth of an irresistible onslaught wnich

Inheriting a fortune


GRAND in real - life may be all' right, but


in films it can be [tough going, particularly ' when!, : as in “ Laughter In Paradise,” one’s benefactor is an eccentric char­ acter with a penchant for prac­ tical joking. He is, in fact, so fond of a joke that; he can’t re- f r ^ from including one in his will, though the people; who are dua to [benefit understandably fail to see the funny side when they . learn of th e conditions attached to their bequests. They include Alastair Sun, a timid, highly respectable . ex-Army officer who can only qu-alify for his inheritance of £5,000 by going to gaol for 28 days for a genuine breach of the law. : [ ,


' Fay Compton. ; a ;; snobbuh spinster, who, under'.the terms of Ihis odd 'Will, must become a domestic servant for ; a month before she can claim! a similar bequest; Guy Middleton, a siiave philanderer who must “.earn” his £5,000 by marrying the first girl he speaks to after the will has been read, and George Cole, a ' meek and mild bank’ clerk whose , "•inheritence. isi withheld until he has held up 'his bank manager at gun ('point!. All of them reluctantly !ao[:ept the con­ ditions, and thej r^ u l t as they attempt to perfokin thete various tasks, is a first-rate .British comedy -without a single dull snomenih The poEsibilities of-


this ingenious comedy ideai.are brilliantly exploited, particularly by the irresistably ; woebegone Mr. Sim, and other edntributians by Anthony Steele, A. E. Mat­ thews and Joyce Grenfell add notably to the fun. ■

manages the transition grace­ fully, Miss Hagen’s voice does not match her beauty. Unknown to Miss Hagen, .the studio- sub­ stitutes the voice of an unknown young actress, Debbie Reynolds, and there are strange and a i iu ^ ing reactions from Miss Hagen when she discovers'the ruse.
