Eugene wasn't very well today. Lillian went downtown to get some wool. Went to the movies. Saw "This Gun for Hire" with Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake and Preston Foster. A cold-blooded killer softens slightly for a woman. Also "Northwest Mounted Police" with Gary Cooper, Madeline Carroll, Paulette Goddard and Preston Foster. Cooper saves the day with his customary aplomb but loses the girl. GIs are demonstrating again in Manila against the slow demobilization.
I'm always checking the movies and actors, and it looks like he confused like names here; the first movie, according to IMDB, stars Robert Preston, not Preston Foster, and the second movie stars both of them! Too bad he didn't have IMDB!
My father started a "diary" in 1945 (more accurately, a journal, covering both family and current events), and I'm going to see if this is a decent way to publish it. Since I'm doing it as a blog, to get to the beginning of the journal, you have to go to the beginning of the blog.
