British Battle Fleet
Is Trans.Lux Star

With the eyes of the world on its
subject matter. the latest March
OF Time" is as timely as any film
that estimable organization ever
turned out. "The Battle Fleets of
England" is the title of this new
chapter In pictorial current history
now on display at the Trans-Lux,
and you will know more about those
battle fleets after you see it. You
will know, for instance, the parts
the various divisions-the home
fleet, the Mediterranean fleet and
the China squadron-are playing
today. You will know the kind of
men who make up the Kings Navee
and the craft they man, for this
is a comprehensive and informing
survey of the navy every one is
watching.
The war is in the Trans-Lux news
some more, to be sure-in an r. A.
F. military funeral for Nazi avia-
tors, In Finland's increasing fears,
IN U-boat scare that spurs our
safety zone patrols and In a plea
for peace by John D. Rockefeller,
jr. Sundry other events occupy
their brief moments, and then in
the sports world there are views of
Challedon romping home, of the
Giants-Dodgers, Vanderbelt-L.- S. u,
North Carolina-Penn and Cornell
Ohio State football tits.

"Sunkissed" Cher first) was q
story Of pastoral California; The
Greatest Show on Earth" was q

drama pretending to reveal the
background Of the Nazi purge in

All were luxuriously produced
shows, welcomed with understand
Ing In the reviews, and now Miss
Bonfils has abandoned the idealistic
and political angles to produce q
straight American play.
'You have to give the audiences
q play that Is closely associated
with their own personal lives" she
said. I'm The Brown Danube
there was an interesting and cur
rent topic written very well. But
none Of the audience could asso-
ciate themselves with being some
one prosecuted by the Nazis or for
eign political groups such as the
play presented.
I'm our new production (Miss
Bonfils produces in collaboration
with her husband, George Somnes)
we reluctantly abandon such clever
stories as The Greatest Show on
Earth or The Brown Danube One
was q fantasy and the other q
political document"
Miss Bonfils, an energetic blond
tmpresario who started in the thea

hit as an actress In theatrical COM
panies In Denver, Is producing here
q drama that Is APPARENTLY q new
trail from the plays she has previ-
ously sponsored.
The new play is Pastoral" Miss

River apartment, a quiet section of
town when she was here last sea-
son but now q hum of activity, for
just down the river are naval and
airplane bases, which have become
more energetic.
In Pastoral Victor wolfson
(who wrote Excursion) tells the
story Of a couple who have been
living together for years. They fear
to be married, afraid that their
idyl may be ended. So they move
to a stone house on q farm in the
Catskills. There they become shy
Of one another and cannot estab-
lsh If they are still lovers, husband
and wife or what"
Wolfson achieved this same type
Of fantasy in the 1867 season. At
that time he had gotten himself
rather strongly aligned with q
group Of radical playwrights when
he dramatized Dostoievesky's Crime
and Punishment" Then he came
back to the gentle side by writing
Excursion" story of the captain

Capra's Mr.. Smith

In his tale of a common man who

All you jitterbugs-don't you worry
about Artie Shaw's advent into the
movies.
They're not going to "glamorize"
him, and they're letting his music
be. He's In the groove, and In the
groove he'll stay.
Eddie Ward, musical director for
Dancing Co-ed," gives us his word
Of honor.
I'VE decided" says Eddie, that
Shaw's tremendous fan following
would tolerate no changes. The fans
will hear him on the sound tracks
just as he Is in the dance halls,
on the radio and in his recordings.
"The usual procedure when a
noted singer or band reports for
motion picture work is to try to
adapt him or 1t to screen technique.
Perhaps, in band, we add violins
for high lights on sweetness
But not in the case of Shaw. He
has style of his own-we were
careful to keep It,"
To make sure not a note of the
Shaw clarinet would be missed. two
channels" were used. Supplement-
ing the band microphone was one
especially placed for Shaw.
"Only in one sequence did we fol-
low our own technique" says Ward.
"A 50-piece college band chal-
lenges Shaw and his boys to a mu-
sical duel. The fun begins, and
Shaw answers the collegiate medley
by playing the identical tunes in hot.
fast swing.
II arranged the medley, but even
here Shaw is allowed his typical
technique in replaying the songs"
The show will include these new
and old swing numbers: Might
mare" Traffic JAM" I'm Coming,
Virginia; Back Bay Shuttle, Jun
gle Drums" I'm Yours" 'Dibbie
Dibbie Do" "At Sundown," Double
Mellow" Nonstop Flight" and
"Gangbusters."
