ALBERT c. RITCHIE MEMORIAL

Announcement that subscriptions
to the Albert C. Richie Memorial
Fund can now be received is made
by Colonel Stuart S. Janney, Chair
man of the Richie Memorial Com
mission appointed early this year by
Governor Harry w. Nice. 1.-THE
Commission has completed the job
of forming organizations throughout
the State to receive contributions,
and subscriptions are already coming
i'm, Colonel Janney states.
Autographed certificates, each
bearing picture of Governor
Richie, will be issued to each con-
tributor. They will be receipts for
the gifts and evidence of member
ship in 1.-THE Albert c.. Richie Me-
mortal Fund" The goal of the Me-
mortal Commission is the sum of
5000, 900.
The type of memorial has not been
decided upon. The Commission feels
that under all the circumstances it
would be too hasty if it selected the
memorial before giving the people of
Maryland a chance to express their
views about it while they are helping
to build up the Memorial Fund.
On this subject booklet just is
sued by the Memorial Commission
expresses that body's views. The
booklet is entitled 1.-THE Albert c.
Richie Memorial Fund: A State
ment by the Commission created by
the Maryland Legislature and ap-
pointed by Governor Harry W. Nice,
and says:
"Since the Memorial Commits
sion is instructed to create this
Memorial with money received
from the people, the people
should voice their views about
the form the Memorial ought to
take 1t should not be under
stood that every individuals
would be impossible. But there
can hardly be as many individu-
al views as there are individual
subscriptions; there will be
few groups of ideas and hun
dreds of individual views will
fall into one of those groups.
This should be helpful in max
ing the final decision"
What we are announcing now is
that we are ready to receive subscrlp-
lions to the Fund, Colonel Janney
said. eve feel sure that the best re-
Spouse will come from this announce
ment that the organization for re-
ceiving the money and taking care OF
it has now been set up, and the OPP
portunity to contribute is now here.
/ do not believe we should make an
appeal for funds, or start a drive
or campaign as those things are
generally understood.
In every county of Maryland and
in Baltimore City committees have
been appointed to make it easy for
every one to contribute to the Me-
mortal Fund. Each County has a
Chairman who is organizing a group
for receiving Memorial gifts from
residents in that County. DR.. Arthur
H. Cantwell, of North East, is the
Cecil county chairman.
1t will be the job of the Commit
tee on Memorial, headed by Chief
Judge Carroll T. Bond, of the Mary
land Court of Appeals to select
finally the type of Memorial for
Governor Richie, being guided by
the public views expressed during the
subscription period now beginning.

Loretta Lee, deep-voiced song stress from Dixie, will be one of the stars of Russell Patterson's Living Models unit which is now at Polls theater for a four-day engagement on the stage.
 Miss Lee made her radio debut over the Columbia network in Janu- ary in 1883 with George Halls dance orchestra from New York city. Her singing continued as a regular feature until early in 1885. In February of that year she was given her own IS minute show on the network with George Halls, Freddie Rich's, and Leith Stevens orchestra appearing at different times on her programs.
 More recently, Miss Lee in addi- ton to her guest appearances on CBS, has been heard regularly in the Hit. Parade" radio series for the cigaret hour on Saturday even- ings and on the Good Evening Ser enade" program on Friday evening.
 Loretta Lees name has neither a Loretta" nor Lee in 1t. It's Margaret Vegas and she halls from New Orleans where her father is held in high esteem for h.s rec ord as judge of the juvenile court Her birthday falls on June 14th, which if you happen to be sticker for facts is also the birthday of George Hall, who was her original mentor and sponsor in radio.

Lavishly produced, tuneful, some times madcap and always gay, and h.asting a cast which includes the top names of radio and screen. Paramount's annual tribute to the air waves, "The Big Broadcast of 1937," which opened at the War ner brothers State theater yester- day, is easily the outstanding pro- duction for this type of entertain ment that has yet been filmed.
 With Jack Benny in the stellar role, "The Big Broadcast of 1937' includes George Burns and Oracle Allen, Bob Burns, Martha Rave, Benny Goodman and his orchestra, Shirley Ross, Ray Midland, Frank Forest, Benny Fields, Leopold stok- owski and his symphony orchestra, and a host of others, all of whom blend perfectly into a delightful melange of music, beauty and wit
 "The Big Broadcast of 1887" has been producer on lavish scale and is considered by Hollywood to be one of the most gorgeous spectacles ever produced there.
 The music and dancing in "The Big Broadcast of 1887" are partic- ularly worthy of note. The "La Bomba" number has all the ingre- dients of 8 great popular hit and will probably be sung and whistleo throughout the country in 8 couple of weeks. The duel between "swin

of feminine pulchritude, fascinat- ing blondes to sophisticated bru- nettes. The supporting cast of sing CTS, dancers and stars of radio, stage, and screen, include such national favorites as Loretta Lee, lovely c. B. S., singing star; Her man Hyde and Sally Burrill; El- eanor Eberle; Carr and Carr; and Walter Dare" Wahl.
 Scenic effects have been brought to Waterbury in this production that rival those of the largest hits of the Gay White Way" and cleo trical effects that create wonder ment are also part of this colorful offering.
 On the screen, Wallace Beery, a Waterbury favorite, if ever there was one, is seen in his latest film "Old Hutch," the tale of a shiftless, but lovable ne'er-do-well, who finds $100,000 in thousand dollar bills, then has the time of his life trying to spend it as his sudden rise to affluence is the talk of the town,

and sweet" fought by Benny Good< man and his orchestra, and Leopold Stokowski and his, is excellent nnu@ sic of both types played to t1na comedy. Altogether "The Big Broad- cast of 1937' rates as an excellent and lavish film which should be on everybody's must" list.
 For the companion feature Mgr. Julia M. Smith has obtained Down the Stretch" a startling expose of crooked race track manipulation ia which the reason favorites often lose their race is revealed. Exciting ath-taking race track scenes add to the complete enjoyment of this spendid added attraction. Patricia Ellis heads a big cast. Among the short subjects also included on this bill is "Knock-Knock," a new screen novelty.
 Next Tuesdays all new show win include "Craig's Wife," starring Wa terbury's own Rosalind Russell with John Bolles, also Straight From the Shoulder" with Ralph Bellanay and the new screen sensation, Kath- crime Locke.

and his efforts to get some of the bills changed into smaller denom- nation create some merry situa- tions. Eric Linden and Cecelia Parker portray" young love" for this picture, and the sweethearts of "Ah Wilderness" will touch your heart.
 The above stage and screen show will continue through Monday night with the stage offering being pre- sented daily at 3-6-9 p. m. Tuesday will bring another great double fea- ture program, teh film titles being "Our Relations" with those prime funsters Laurel and Hardy" in a fufll-length attraction, which to Waterburians is an assurance of an hilarious entertainment. This film is supported by Missing Girls" a dramatic expose of the white slave racket practiced in the larger cities.
