Garner can hardly argue with this news, startling as it may be, since the methodical Germans have thought of everything including even a nurse (Eva Marie Saint) to whom, he discovers, he is married. Well, we all know how the Germans always trip up on their own efficiency which is meticulous in small things but overlooks the obvious.

Garner finally tumbles to the fact that he has been diddled, but not before having a good, long gossip about who landed where at Normandy. Once the sly Teutonic plan is exposed, however, the picture begins to drag badly. There is much moiling about with plots and counter-plots between him, the German doctor and the bad, bad SS colonel, which results in the Nazis becoming confused about whether his information is correct or not I became a bit confused and even a little amnesic myself. This would have been a whale of a thriller, but it lets itself run self-indulgently for two hours and it runs, finally, right into the ground. reach 60.

My wife is 66. What do you think of my situation? LOVES FLORIDA DEAR LOVES: I can understand why a woman wouldn't want to leave her church work to sit around all day and listen to her husband tell her how nutty she is. Climate isn't everything. You had better put a little sunshine into your personality if you want your Missus to join you. Otherwise you deserve to sweat it out in Florida alone.

Much of the time is wasted in long, aching camera studies of Steve McQueen's face as he des DEAR ABBY: I am bewildered. My six-year-old came home from school with a list of things his teacher wanted for Christmas. A bottle of very expensive perfume was circled, which meant that was the gift she expected from my son.

I had embroidered a handkerchief and was planning to send that until this list showed up. I told my husband about it and he said I shouldn't send anything. I talked to some of the other mothers in my son's room and thpy were all going along with the teacher's requests because they feared the consequences if they didn't. I telephoned the principal and told her what I thought of a teacher who would pull a stunt like that, and she said teachers were hard to come by and they had to put up with a lot. When the grades came out, mv son got an "UNSATISFACTORY" in I want to know what you think I should do now? BURNED UP DEAR BURNED UP: If the teacher actually sent home such a list and the principal was too timid to censure her for it, both should be called on the carpet by the Board of Education.

However, don't hang your protest on the boy's bad mark. He may have had that coming anyway. perately tries to formulate a thought. A good deal also is squandered in looking sympa-! thetically into the face of Lee Remick, as she looks sor-rowingly into the face of McQueen (and possibly wonders why on earth she married such a dunce). By AI Capp ABNER AT THAT MOMENT, THE VALE G.OUP ARRIVES He is a rock 'n' roll guitarist down Texas way who was sent to prison for killing a man in a honky-tonk.

Paroled, he goes back to plunking. His wife and young daughter join him in a scruffy little town, where he tries to stay out of trouble. He can't because he has been warped by the wealthy Miss Clara, who took him in as an orphan and kept beating him to "break his spirit." If Miss Remick had put any character into her role, the story might have been interesting, but she is flab all the way. McQueen's scowl dominates the picture and makes it pointless. I wasn't sorry to see him go back to the pen that is one less rock 'n' roll guitarist to worry about.
