 New Features

Hit Parade of 1941," which pro- vides a field day for musical com- ely lovers, is ending it's run at the Capitol Theatre tonight. The Re public musical presents an all-star cast, including Kenny Baker, Fran ces Langford, Hugh Herbert, Mary Roland, Ann Miller, Patsy and Phil Silvers, in one continual laugh fest and jam session, combining spritely tunes and colorful dances with an engaging plot which could not fail to captivate the most cri- tical audience.
 Borrah Minevitch and his Ras- calls, those harmonica maniacs, fill prominent spot in the bill, as do Six Hits and a Miss" The inimitable Sterling Holloway scores in his comedy characterization of the philosophical soda jerker, and Barnett Parker, and Donald Me Bride add to the general merry making.
 The story deals with the tri- bulations of Kenny Baker and Hugh Herbert first as proprietors of an insolvent antique shop, and then of an insolvent radio sta tion, only to learn that the advent of television will entail a gigantic expense in equipping the station for sight as well as sound.
 Matters go from bad to worse, but Miss Langford, aided and abetted by the Misses Kelly and Miller, ultimately save the day and peace and prosperilyl are restored to Station WPX.

The natives-cautious, but ig-
norant of the war and ready to help
stranger in distress-hid the
pilots guns and gave him food and
drink for several days. Eventually
the pilot asked for his war papers"
and thereby aroused suspicion.
Men Sent to Report.
Lacking direct communication

sent some men in boat 20 miles
to Kauai Island to report the ar
rival of a queer guest who spoke
strangely of war"
The pilot, meantime, bribed the
Hawaii born japanese with 200 yen
to get his guns back and began
asking about the men who had left
in the boat.
The husband and wife lured the
pilot to the woods. Then the
Hawaii-born Japanese came by and
shots and stones began to fly.
The Hawaii-born Japanese made
the first move, firing shotgun
charge into his own stomach. The
husband tried to interfere and the
pilot shot him three times. De-
spite his wounds, the six-foot-three
husband banged the pilots head
against the stone wall and his wife
finished the job.

HONOLULU, Dec. ia broad
cast from nearby Kauai Island yes
terday related to the story of a
Japanese pilot who made forced
landing in the primitive, western
most islet of this group December
Z and was stoned to death six days
later by native Hawaiian woman.
The pilot had enjoyed the hospi-
tality Of the island for six days be-
cause the natives had not heard of
the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor
and the declarations of war. The
broadcaster told it this way:
The woman pounced on the pilot
after he had fired three bullets into
the body of her husband and after
an Hawaiian-born Japanese, who
had befriended the pilot, committed
suicide with a shotgun. The hus-
band survived and was taken to the
Kauai hospital.
Natives Hid Pilots Guns.
The episode occurred beside a
stone wall in the woods of tiny
Niihau forbidden Isle" which
had been privately owned for years.
Niihau is thinly populated and has
been kept almost exclusively for

shepherds and cowboys.
