Can you imagine Grace Moore singing Minnie the Moocher" with appropriate gestures? You don't be- lieve it? We'll trot over to Warmers State theater where her new picture, When You're In Love" opened yes- terday. '4
 To call 1t gay, gorgeous giddy. and generous with Miss Moore's lovely voice would be Insufficient. It is one o fthe happiest affairs that Hollywood has ever produced, giving you Grace Moore whom you'll fall in love with all over again.
 Besides swinging 'Minnie." the opera star beautifully renders such masterpieces as Schubert's "Seren- ade," "One Fine Day" from Mad anne Butterfly" "Siboney," "Vissie Darte" from La Tosca." the Waltz Aria" from Romeo and Juliet" and "In the Cleaning" All these besides two excellent new popular numbers by Jerome Kern, Our Song" and "Whistling Boy"
 Miss Moore is perfectly supported withfa grand story by Robert Riskin of MT. Deeds" and Tt Happened One Night fame. Cary Grant is just right as @ hard drinking Amer ican artist, while other roles arc dealt with slsillfully by Aline Mac

HOLLYWOOD
By Paul Harrison

is at night. Director James Whale and his shivering company of prin- ciples and 200 extras never get go- ing until about midnight. Then they shoot until dawn and, presumably, sleep all day.
 The valleys acoustics are ex- cellent; I can hear all the shouted orders, also the bombs.
 But the men who are working in this picture don't like war, either. The nights have. been cold, and be- fore the players climb into their trenches they must wallow in hud hole.
 Sometimes they have to make their way through the wire, but are merely rubbed bands tied in that isn't so bad because the barbs neat little knots.
 Made in U. S.
 Two dozen Hawaiian men are working with Bing Crosby in some of the scenes for Waikiki Wedding" While a chorus of hula dancers twist and posture in a manner acceptable to the censors, these gents play na- tive instruments called ulilis and pulls.
 Until they donned costumes and became movie actors, few of them know anything about this kind of music. They're mostly bus boys, truck drivers, and WPA workers who have, spent most of their lives on the mainland. The picture gains its authen- ticity from 8 Mrs. Louise Beamer, the technical adviser. Half Ha- waiian and half Scotch, she con- ducts 8 studio in the islands where the ancient dances, music and even the language are taught. In the days of silent pictures, Niblo was one of the most cele- brated directors. Among the pie lures he directed was Ben Hur," which brought in more money than any other flicker evere filmed by that studio. More money, probably, than will be garnered by "The Good Earth"

Hollywood.-All over the lot: "You Can't Run Away From Love To- night" is a song that Dick Powell sings to Doris Weston as they pie nic in cove by the sea. The scene is for "The Singing Marine" and studio workmen spent four days building the cove by the sea so Powell could warble the song.
 Only things lacking is the sea it- self. Stock shots of rolling break CTS and moonlight on the waves will be inserted late to complete the Illusion. Huge rocks which decorate the set are made of papier mache and are sprayed with glycerin which doubles for briny mist.
 The camp fire isn't real, either, The flames are from a gas burner and the logs are covered with as- LesSos. Much better than 8 real fire because it can be turned off and on at will.
 Oe1y real thing about the set is the sand. The studio had to irn- port a couple of truckloads from | beach 30 miles away. They say that one of the executives got pretty annoyed about this, so he now has some research scientists busy trying to find substitute for sand.

 Going up?" "
 "Yes," chorus Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers as they. step into an elevator, or what looks like an ele- vator, for a sequence in their new filmsical, Stepping Toes"
 Of course, it's not only imprac- ticab,e but pointless to try to take movies in a real elevator, 50 in this case Director Mark Sandrich simp- ly ordered one built on 2 convenient sound stage.
 Just three walls, resting on the floor, Is this make-believe elevator whi.h will appear to be shooting t,,e dancing pair skyward. Number ed floor levels will be seen flashing past. The numbers were painted on a sip of canvas and then mounted on two rollers. One of the rollers has a crank, which Is turned by a husky workman.
 Sherman Said It
 I have been watching war late- ly, and I don't like 1t a bit. One reason is that it is being waged practically in my backyard. and l can't get any sleep.
 My house stands at the head of a small valley which falls away sharply to a pond on Universal Studios back lot. For year, now, I have ga2ed with mixed feelings at a beached schooner, a.village of Fiji huts, and an American frontier town which is adjacent to the Cathedral of Notre Dame.
 Nothing much happened except that two or three times the pond was used as a double for the At lantic Ocean.
 But recently some worknen came and removed the Fiji huts.. Then they dug shell ,hols and trenches, built barbed-wire entanglements, and erected a huge background screen with a horizon and few clouds. i, g c 1a el !. sn z #

High School Registration Higher Than Last Year; Night School Teachers Not to Be Named Until Next Friday-Larger Grand List Looms Locally

NaugatVck, Sept. 2l.--One case of polion4yelitis or iI1fantile paralysis has occurred in Naugatuck. The announcement is given in the state department of health report for the period ending at II a. m. Monday.
 pr. Walter I. Baker, local health officer, could not be reached this morning for a statement. It was reported from another source that the case is Union City one. It E believed the case has been isolated. No alarm has been felt here yet because assfar as has been officially reported. this Is the only such case here. There has been an epidemic ot paralysis in other sections but officials are hopeful this will be the only case here.
 Largest Enrolment
 The NaugaCuck high school enroll- ment figure last frlday reached the highest in its history It was learned today from Supt. ot Schools Harold E. Chittenden. On that day 1t to- raled sol, which is SIX more than the peak of last year, S9o.

 1he last total enrolment figure for local public schools, reported sev- eral days ago, was 2,464.
 Supt. Chittenden said he does not expect to make appointment of night school teachers before next Friday. He explained the selection ot teachers Is contingent on the number that register. If none registers for special classes of course no teacher would be required. Tu- night Is the final time for enroll- ment in the high school evening classes.
 The problem of renting the Re- creation field on Sundays to local football teams has been solved, 1t ts believed. The Ramblers football eleven and the All-Naugatuck pro- feaSional team each wanted the field every Sunday during the football season but when the superintendent offered them the field use on alter nate Sundays, an agreement was reached. The board Of education left the matter up to the superln- tsndent at 1t sSeptember session.

MANY MISTAKE
 ELM DISEASES
Others Besides Dutch Elm Disease Noted This
 Summer

Many elm trees affected by other diseases have been mistaken for cases of Dutch elm disease this sea- son. Common among these Is gno- monia which Is noticeable along highways all over the state, accofd- ing to Forester w. o. Filley of the Agricultural Experiment Station at New Haven. Others that show symptoms resembling the Dutch elm disease and examined by pr. Flor. ence Mccormick at the station are Cephalosporium and Verticilliuni. None of these kills the trees except in extreme cases, Doctor Mccormick asserts.
 dnomonla, pronounced without the 6, has been very general on elm leaves this season. It Is caused by a fungus which develops especially In the kind of summer weather Connecticut has been experiencing. The spores multiply during hot, damp days, followed by fairly cool nights. Foliage first is SprinSled with black spots. Later the leaves turn yellow and brown before drop ping, still retaining their spotty ap- pearance. In some cases the tree iS completely defoliated before the end of the season and Is greatly weakened.
 Since the disease spreads by means of spores, dropped leaves should be collected and burned i'm" mediately. dsnofiia is present every year but has been more prevalent than usual in 1887, Dr. Mccormick states.
 A number of other elm specimens sent to the Station, as suspected cases of Dutch elm disease, were found to contain Cephalosporiuil1. In this rnalady tho leaves turn yel- low, and an examination of the cross section of an affected twig re" veals dark streaks in the wood un- der the bark resembling those caused by Dutch elm disease. It iS only when the discolored wood is treated h culture that the disease IS seen to be caused by a different fungus, that Is much less destruc" tive to the clrnS. Two trees in New Haven still thrive after suffering with Cepalosporium for ten years.
 Verticilliurn Is less common but is sometimes mistaken for the fatal elm trouble because of similar synlp. toms. The final diagnosis for all these diseases comes in the labora- tory when tho fungus Is grown oi, sterilized cultures. Each fungus has individual characteristics of growth that make 1t unnistakable.
 Until September l, the total number of cases of Dutch elm dis" case found in Connecticut this year was o2, exactly corresponding to the number found tl ie30. These cases are confined to the zone of infection in Fairfield county.
