Meet Me In St. Louis
In Color, At Lyric
One of the happiest musica
hits of all time comes to the Ly
ric theatre today and Sunday in
MGM’s nostalgic "Meet Me In
St. Louis", stamng Judy Gar
land.
Rightfully winning a place on
every best 10 pictures of the
year, including 5th place in the
Dr. Gallup public poll, the film
is a gay combination of music in
terwoven skillfully with a heart
warming and laugh-filled story of
a human family of tne mid-West.
Judy Garland is lovable in the
leading role, singing the hit
"Trolley Song” and o‘her tunes.
In some of these she is assisted
by the new bright star child act
ress, Margaret O’Brien, who
plavs her sister in a manner to
win new laurels.
The production numbers and
costuming of the period is auth
entic and lavish in the manner
expected from MGM, and Tech
nicolor adds the final fillip of per
fection.
The perfect cast includes Ma
ry Astor, Lucille Bremer, Tom
Drake and Marjorie Main.
On Monday and Tuesday the
showing of the Clark Gable pic
ture ‘Call of the Wild" is of
special interest to Manager H.
F. MacDonald, who was at ihe
same hotel in Bellingham where
the cast stayed during filming of
