But you the audience will be the judge! Don't miss the fun! Gus Meyers and the Loew Poli theater orchestra will be on hand to join in the hil- arity and furnish some grand excel- lent musical entertainment.
 Capacity audiences yesterday and this afternoon were enthusiastic in their praise of handsome young Richard Greene, who has his first starring role in one of today's great est dramas, Here I Am a Stranger" Here is significant story of mod ern life daringly told, a story that is out of the beaten path. Greene por- trays with absorbing realism the boy who reaches the threshold of man. hood to find himself suddenly a stranger in the world he has grown up into. Bewildered by the conflict between his superficial world of wealth and sham and a new world of things that are real, he is torn and hurt by life, until he meets girl as new to love as he is him. self.
 Despite the depth of its theme and the intensity of it's drama, the story is interpolated with sparkling comedy.
 Heading an outstanding support ing cast are Richard Dix, Gladys George, Brenda Joyce, Roland Young, Russell Gleason, Edward Norris and many others.
 On the same program is the laugh hit of the season Pack Up Your Troubles" Teamed in this riot are the Ritz Brothers and Jane With CTS, the cast alone assuring you of the most in top-notch comedy. Don't miss it.!

ln The Local Theaters
STATE

The first big musical treat of the season, "On Your Toes", starring the lovely Zorina, star of q Married An Angel, and as delightful an aggre- gation of comedians as has ever been assembled for motion picture, comes to Warner Bros. State theater this afternoon as the headliner of the outstanding program to be seen and enjoyed until the final per- formances Saturday evening.
 The effective combination of Zo- rina and the all-comedy cast make this dance-comedy one of best shows of the fall season. It is based on the famous stage play and like the original play it is uproariously funny. Yet it also contains mo- ments of rare loveliness as the in- comparable Zorina and a support ing troupe of beautiful ballet ar- tists reverse the old saying and make it: from the ridiculous to the sublime"
 Nothing, however. least of all the dancing, is taken seriously. And the piece is played by group of ex- perts at not taking things seriously, foremost among whom is Eddie AL bert, who demonstrates clearly that the impression he made on local theatergoers in Brother Rat" was no accident. Eddie is really funny and in his current film ne g~.. excellent opportunity to show just how funny he is.
 Other favorite personalities who contribute generously to the fun in- clude Alan Hale, in a dialect role as the impreSario of a Russian bal let troupe most of whose members are more than bit on the tenn peramental side; Frank McHugh, as the harrassed stage manager of this unpredictable troupe; and James Gleason and Queenie Smith, as an old-time team of vaudeville hoofers. Gloria Dickson, Berton Churchill, and the youngsters Don- aid O'Connor and Sarita Wooten also contribute generously to the fun.
 And on the same show is the fourth in the Nancy Drew series Nancy Drew and the Hidden Stair case" with Bonita Granville again in the role of the girl detective. Frankie Thomas and John Lite. head the supporting cast.
 Remember, there's 8 new show every Wednesday and Sunday al the State. Watch for the big smash program opening this Sunday.

Army speeded up when war began and could have beaten that dead line. The difficulty is that it would not have been quite the well-bal- anced, modern air force which now is seen to be essential.
 The program provided plenty of observation and photographing planes wherewith to spy upon an enemy; plenty of heavy bombers for the famous G. H. o. Air Force to use against his railways and cities but not enough lighter bombers and pursuit planes for the new phase into which the war in the air is entering.

There may be more expense, but that, too, will be watched carefully, especially in building big bombers. Our staff is studying with eagle eyes reports of how many air dread naughts come back from their raids. For example, the Lightning War is reported to have backfired on the German Air Force to the extent of 800 to 1000 planes lost in three weeks to the nder-equipped Poles.
 For anti-aircraft guns have im- proved, too. In 1918 American gum ners brought down German plane for every 6O5 shots. Today they hit lowed target every 24 shots.
 The need of anti-aircraft defense has been proved by Warsaw-and may any day be proved by London and Paris. Meanwhile the United States at last is getting anti-air- craft guns-$16,000,000 worth. Last spring there were only 24-today there are 338 three-inch guns with a six-mile ceiling; even more ST. millimetre guns and 50-calibre ma chine guns that fire 400 heavy bull lets a minute four miles.
 The Army has experimented with a heavier gun. The Navy has five inch gun so powerful it nearly blew up the airplane that lowed its first target.
 Our lightning-rods for the light ming war are probably as good as that of the Nazis, who have about the best anti-aircraft guns in Eu- rope.
 U. S. PLANES PERFORM

 Our planes, in fact, bid fair to become second to none in quality but they would need to be, should our long, far-flung coastline be struck by lightning from any part of Europe or elsewhere.
