Swedes, Italians, all chipped in to build new beet-sugar factories, power plants, cotton mills. Road builders arrived from Europe and America and construction companies were not long in learning that Teheran, "City of the Shadow of God." was to undergo a facial operation. The King of Kings guaranteed prompt payment in foreign cash...
...mightily thoracic Tarzan, blending with his eerie ee-ya-ee call the chewing-gum flavor of her pronounced Brooklyn accent. This new Tarzan is lean, 6-ft. 2-in., Olympic Champion Glenn Morris, summoned to the role to replace Johnny Weissmuller.

Pug-faced, whimsical Barry Fitzgerald, Hollywood recruit from Ireland's Abbey Players, mugs too, but mugging, reckless shadow boxing and a cinemaddiction to strong drink are the Fitzgerald stock in trade. Ebb Tide provides several "firsts": It is Technicolor's first sea story; Viennese Oscar Homolka's first Hollywood vehicle; blonde Frances Farmer's first appearance in a sarong. Navy Blue and Gold (Metro...
