Died. Maud Murray Dale, 70, Manhattan patroness of modern French art; of a heart attack; in Southampton, N.Y.

...Marshal's Daughter (Ken Murray; United Artists), undoubtedly one of the worst westerns ever made, seems to have a little of everything in it: a gun-shooting crisis, reminiscent of High Noon, with clocks inexorably moving toward midnight; a barroom brawl scene from an old Hoot Gibson silent; veteran Cowboy Gibson himself as a U.S. marshal whose blonde daughter (Laurie Anders) sings, dances, does a ventriloquist act and is equally expert at shooting, riding and jujitsu; guest appearances by such familiar faces from the wide-open spaces as Tex Ritter, Preston Foster, Jimmy Wakely, Buddy Baer, Johnny Mack Brown...
