He called attention to progress

Arthur Newkirk and the person

the number of visitors and pros
poets and Oldsmobile owners who
inspected the two new 1871 models
displayed in the showroom.
The new Oldsmobile is so strik-

interior arrangement that enthusi-
asts pronounce it a real surprise
and exceptionally pleasing.
Several features are unique, one
is the door covered running
boards; another is the liquid drive
and still another the full automatic
transmission. The sales personnel
who helped visitors get the sight
of Oldsmobiles included John E..

BRITISH PREPARE
FOR 1871 ATTACK
CONTINUED From Page One)

They have confidence in the
army's ability to "assimilate and
improve" Germany's technique in
the Polish, Flanders and French
campaigns and in this nations in
dustrial ability to put an army in
the field fully equipped for modern
war.
Such equipment, they say, must
include an air force attached to
the army and acting under direc-
ton of the army commander-in-
chief in the German manner.
As winter approaches, the train
ing of troops under Viscount Gort
inspector-general to British home
forces for training, becomes more
intensive. The army knows Gort
as 1.-The grand drill sergeant"
Just as intensive is the campaign
started by War Secretary Anthony
Eden and Justify supported by his
generals to keep the army in the
public eye and get it dive-bombers,
fighters and tanks which the high
command deems essential for sue
cessful land operations.
Equipment, not training, is the
biggest problem. Most officers say
there is not enough now to permit
a major counter blow against the
Germans this fall.
There's no use saying every
thing is lovely because it damn
well isn't" observed a lieutenant
general recently. I'VE can hold
this country from now till kingdom
come, but we've got to do more
than that. We r going to get
equipment from cur factories and
the United States, I hope, and

AMATEURS READY
AT MAMARONECK
Wehrle, Of Chicago, Rated
Threat To Defending
Champion Ward
BY BILL BONI

MAMARONECK, N. Y, Sept.
-R-The woods were full Of trees
and the fairways fu'l of golfers as
some $50 of the country's best
amateurs warmed up today for the
44th national championship, which
begins at Z a.. m. (EST) Monday
over the west course of the Wing
ed Foot golf club.
There was a brisk breeze today
which helped make the practice
shotmaking difficult for some OF
the lads, but among those who bet
tered par were MILFORD Wehrle OF
Chicago, rated one of the main
threats to defending Champion
Marvin (Bud) Ward; Harold H.
Mandy, Jr., Connecticut open and
amateur titleholder, I'd Meister of
Cleveland, and Skip Alexander of
Duke university. All shot one-un-
der-par 71's the best scores re-
turned so, far.
Eight Champs In
Of the 10 former champions en-
tered, eight have checked in. Be-
sides Ward, they are Chic Evans,
who has shot rs his last two times
around; Francis Ouimet, Jess
Sweetser, Willie Turnesa, Johnny
Goodman, Johnny Fischer and
George Dunlap. Max Marston and
Jesse Guilford haven't shown up
yet.
From the way they have and
haven't been scoring, it seems I'M
likely any qualifying round records
will be broken, particularly if the
wind keeps up. The fairways are
playing long and the greens are
rather hard, difficult to stop a ball.
SO that the record 36-hole 1873 post
ed at North Shore a year ago by
Tommy Sheehan, of Worthwhile,
Mich, will be hard to top.
Sheehan played with Ward, Art
Doering of Chicago and Fred Haas
of New Orleans, in one of today's
standout practice foursomes. But
the only man who drew any peo-
pie away from the clubhouse was
Bing Crosby.
The crooner found about Is peo-
pie waiting to see him putt when
he reached the ninth green. He
took three puts for a DOGGY 6.
Then about so of them followed him

in watching while he sat down to
rest as they were in the golf shot
he hit.

CALCULATION

CHAPEL HILL, Sept. 7.-P
Ray Wolf, North Carolina uni
versity football coach says this
happened last fall:
The coach of a middle North
Carolina high school footpail
team, notified on the eve of the
big game that his star halfback
had been disqualified because OF
scholastic deficiencies, appealed
to the principal, an athletically
minded soul.
"Well," said the principal,
"I'l give him another examina'
ton, and if he passes it he'll
play tomorrow"
The big halfback was called
in and the principal explained:
"Now I'm going to give you a
one-question examination and If
you pass it you'll play tomor'
row. Are you ready?"
Eyes, SIR"

pal, lis the capital of North

After considerable reflection,

Annie Sails
Again at
The Met
Marjorie Rambeau
Now Goes to Sea on
The Narcissus

When Norman Reilly Raine first
created his Tugboat Annie there
were many who saw in her the like
ness of Marie Dressler. even before
the film moguls noted the resem-
blance. Now it turns out-and it
can be said without detracting one
whit from the memory c. the be-
loved Miss Dressler-that Mr.. Raine
might just as well have been think
ing of Marjorie Rambeau, so well
does she fit herself into the role in
"Tugboat Annie Sails Again." the
new picture at the Metropolitan.
Miss Rambeau's little adventure
aboard Tugboat Annie's beloved Mar
cissus is not for those who must have
their wit FURNISHED by S. N. Behr-
man, or even by Noel Coward for
that matter. The comedy is built
mostly about Annie's Malapropisms
(of the Hope I'm not protudin'
SCHOOL, and her battles with Capt.
BullWinkle (Alan Hale) to prove she
is the best man" on the water front.
1t isn't the brightest sort of comedy
material, but Miss Rambeau does
play it with a full measure of en-
thusiasm and not little f1avorsome
ham. Good ham, that is.
The story of "Tugboat Annie Sails
Again" is apparently an original
screen play by Walter DeLeon, but it
might just as easily be one of those
many TugbOat Annie MAGAZINE
yarns. At any rate the same sort of
crises face her and she meets them
with her accustomed combination of
bluster and shrewdness. You need
never fear that Capt. Bullwinkle or
any other force of evil is going to
better her.
And, incidentally, If you need a
touch Of romance in your cinema

Jane Wyman and Ronald Reagan

Dictator

And It's Because
Chaplin Himself
Is a Genius

"Dictators are not funny" peo-
pie are saying, as If Charlie Chap
Inns 1.-THE Great Dictator" were a
plot devised to rob them of a cher
ished judgment. On the contrary,
the picture which moved to the Co
lumbia yesterday is another one of
those rare and effective demonstra-
tions that Chaplin Is funny, the u
timately fine artist of comedy. Per-
haps he is not quite so entertain
ing as in the past when he departs
from the role of the valiant little
man bouncing up from fate's most
furious buffeting, but whatever he
plays 1t manages to be better than
what anyone else plays in his par
ticular field. That goes for his hys-
terical. macabre Herr Hynkel ir

CounterpartS in Chaplin's film man
age, nevertheless, to evoke gusts of
laughter beyond that of which any
man has a right to be guilty. That
happens in a dozen sequences when
Herr Hynkel, the posturing maniac,
makes the frenzied speech in double
talk, when he and Napolini try to
outshout and outgrimace each other
after that dramatically botched
meeting at the railway station,
when he dances that mad bubble

his hands.
1t is not the defect of premise

mars it without removing it from
the realm of film everyone should
see. 1t is rather that the amazing
inventiveness of the man, which en-
ables him to evoke moods beyond
any other genius in pictures, fails
him in the effort to keep his film
always at the same high level. The
Great Dictator" therefore, suffers
from repetitiousness at times, its
pace is not always fast, and it grows
almost maudlin at the end when
Chaplin steps out of character to
denounce dictators in 6 minutes
speech which Is sheer tragedy.
In spite of these flaws, however
'The Great Dictator" is a must.
