WHITE AND BLACK
 REVUE ACCLAIMED
Greatest Show in Years Currently Presented at
 Jacques Theater

There may have been better stage shows presented in Waterbury at some time or other, depending upon the point of view and what appeals best and most consistently to the average audience, but it is eminent ly fair to say that the current White and Black Revue at Jacques theater can hold its own with anything pre- sented in this city within a decade. Broad as such a statement is, a re- view of the show last night con- vinces the writer that the historic boards of the Jacques stage has sup- ported no greater offering for ex- cellent and continuous entertain ment of musical comedy type than that which is scheduled to be pre- sented twice day for the remain der of the week..
 The novelty of two complete shows in one presentation is something Ill itself, the. white entertainers being presented first in Stage Scandals" and featuring really great come dian-Bobby Morris. Following the usual intermisSion, the audience Is shown Leonard Harper'S Big Ap- ple Presentation" from the famous l25th street Appolo theater in New Yorks Harlem ill which some 50 colored folks swing into the famous dance that has won countrywide acclaim and then put on whirl-. wind session of dancing, comedy and singing that is in a class by itself.
 There are a half dozen nominees for the honor ol best individual per- former, but, a choice must be made and that of the writer is Bobby Morris-a white Jewish comedian who could fit into a featured role in the best show or sound picture ever made. From the instant of ms first appearance with a face, nous. tache and derby that brings to mind one of the greatest, if not the greatest comic of them all-Charley Chaplin Morris provides continual howl of laughter for the better part of an hour that is unbelievable. MT. Morris can make women scream and bring tears to the eyes or mers through the medium of uncontroll- able laughter, and it goes without saying-any person who can do that over long period of time is stamp ed with the indelible mark of genius
 Then there's Spoons" Brown, a colored comedian who does more than his share to make the Big Apple" show the success that it is and with him the team of Burn
 ham, Harris and Scott, the Three Lane Sisters, Taps" Miller and Billy Cortez, all plus Q dozen show girl dancers who can "pick 'em up and

He was baptized and confirmed in
the Lutheran church and was asso-
ciated with that church.
Mr.. Sandahl was 81 years, two
months and ten days of age. He
leaves to mourn his departure from
this life, his wife, three children,
Violet, Arthur and Roy; two brothers,
John of st. Cloud; and Charles of
Kingsdale. One sister has preceded
him in death.
Mr.. Sandahl was kind and friend
ly man. He displayed great patience
during his illness and his constant
desire and prayer towards the last
was that he might 60 home to God.
When one of his neighbors visited
him a short time before he passed
away, he said with a note of joy
and eagerness in his voice, 81 am
going home soon."
