 Hoorayl Sing out the news! Babes In Arms", starring Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland has been held over at Loew's Poli for { more days.

 A second improvement will be the use of double floors in this expe- dition's Antarctic quarters. Last time, the crew complained that they couldn't keep their feet warm.
 Lastly. the giant snow-cruiser may prove the greatest revolution of all in down-under exploration. Built at cost of $150,000 by the Armour Institute of Technology, the cruiser is expected to reduce ma- terially the hazards of ice travel.
 But, strangely, the expedition has no money with which to come back. The $S50,000 appropriated by Con- gress has been spent in buying equipment and food. And since their return in 194l will come dur- ing period over which the present Congress has no control, the expe- dition will have to wait for another Congressional appropriation. Or else.
