Husband, VIE Teams
Married Couples Prove
Ideal Screen Mates
By CHARLES GENTRY

MORE happily marrieds who
WI have proved to be ideal
screen mates as well turn up
this week.
Last week we recounted how
well Joan Blondell and Dick
Powell have gotten along to-
gether in their co-starring
efforts. IT Want a Divorce" and
Model Wife,"
This week, an even more IA
nous married pair is to be seen
playing in 'Th at Hamilton
Woman" at the Michigan.
In fact Vivien Leigh and Lau-
renee Olivier are practically the
film fans idea of the perfect
couple and this is their first ap-
pearance together in America
since their marriage. They
first met. however, on an Eng
lish sound stage and their ro-
nance blossomed under the
Kleig lights.
DisProVe SfiTics
In this. their first vehicle
since The wedding bells sounded,
they definitely put TO flight all
those croakings by the wise
acres that the co-starring man
and wife business is fatal to
welded bliss.
Surely no two ever appeared
in more romantic light than
Vivien and Laurence and the
world has followed all the mo-
mentous happenings since they
first announced their intention
to marry. shortly after the re-
lease of Gone With the Wind"
Since then they have returned
to England. Olivier is in the
Raj and Leigh is doing can
teen work, but il is quite likely
they will 60 back together for
screen work following the war.
Certainly the success of their
present venture should insure
the continuance of their screen
and marital partnerships.

D. {. Promised
Ample Notice
Of B|ackouts
ReheursuIs Coming
In About Six Weeks,
Says Col. BoIles

Washington will have test black
outs and rehearsals of mobilizing
civilian defense volunteers for emer-
gency duty, but only after ample
notice, Col. Lemuel L. Bolles, ex-
ecutive director of civilian defense,
announced today.
If, meanwhile, air raid warnings
should be issued without advance
notice. that will mean the Capital
actually is believed menaced by
hostile planes, he explained. empha-
sizing that no sudden or unan-
nounced rehearsals will be held.
Col. Bolles indicated 1t would be
some time, at least six weeks, be-
fore the city would be ready for
such tests. To order a blackout
without adequate notice would be
tragic" he said.
He listed three conditions as neces-
sary for a safe blackout:
/. A well-organiZed air raid serv-
ice Of wardens and their assistants.
2. Complete instructions dissem-
mated widely and understood by the
people.
3. A large enough volunteer police
auxiliary force TO protect persons
moving about in the blackout.
The first step, Col. Bolles tnci-
Gated, may be a test mobilization of
defense workers, for which probably
"a hours notice would be given. 1t
would be held in daylight, possibly
on Saturday afternoon. Raid war
dens and others would get the three
signals through their own communi-
cation systematic alert, the warn
ing. then the planes overhead
fash.
After that, if the city seems ready,
a test blackout, announced well in
advance so that everybody knows of
it, may be held. During these re-
hearsals defense officers will watch
closely for defects and probably
hold later tests to see if they have
| been corrected.

Buzz Donovan Loses Suit
AGAINST Police Officials

James F. C"Buzz'O Donovan today
lost in the United States Court of
Appeals a $500 suit against former
Police Supt. Ernest w. Brown, for
mer Chief of Detectives Bernard w.
Thompson and Capt. S. j. Marks,
commander of the fourth precinct.
Donovan contended that when he
was taken into custody for ques-
tioning about a robbery, he was not
released for As hours, despite pro-
tests of his attorney. The District
Code. it was pointed out. provides
that ANY person committed may de-
mand copy of the warrant or COM
mittment and any officer OBTAINING
him who shall refuse to deliver" 1t
within six hours after demand shall
forfeit to the party so detained the
sum of $500"
The case was before the Appeals
Court after a jury verdict for the
police officials in Municipal Court.
Donovan's attorney appealed because
of Municipal Judge Nathan Cayton's
charge to the jury. The higher court
ruled. however, that the objection to
the jury charge was not made at
the original trial, and hence comes
too late"

Plans Laid for Safety
OF School Pupils in Raids

School officials today called upon
parents of pupils to lay careful plans
for their safety under program for
evacuation in case of emergency.
Under the plan. children would be
sent home as soon as notice OF
enemy planes was flashed to the
Capital. If parents are not at home
during parts of the day, school off,
cials said, they should instruct the
children on what to do and where
to 90 at those times. Arrangements
with neighbors for the care OF the
youngsters was suggested.
Supt. Frank w. Ballou explained
that defense officials favor dis
tributing the children through the
communities in homes rather than
keeping them massed in schools.
Principals, he said, will communicate
with parents to reach understand
ings on the safety of the children.

ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 10. - Naval
Academy officials said today no
changes were contemplated in the
academy's graduation week, begin
ming Saturday and ending Friday,
December 10, with commencement
for 564 midshipmen.
Plans to give underclass mid
shipmen Christmas leave from De-
cember 20 to January 3 also are un-
changed, academy authorities added.
However, they were unable to say
whether seniors would be given leave
after their graduation.
The war with Japan has resulted
in regulations excluding the public
from the reservation, but officials
said outsiders invited to attend
dances and other graduation week
ceremonies would be given admis-
sion cards to the academy and to
the particular events.
Under the new regulation, only
persons on official business are per-
mitted inside academy grounds. II
such persons are unable to identity
themselves properly. they must wait
outside the reservation until the
person or persons they Eish to see
identify them. T.

In case there should be an
enemy air raid on the National
Capital, how will you be
warned? The answers given
by civilian defense officials
are:
/. Military or civilian spot
ters will flash warnings
through established centers,
such as the Districts fire

turn notifies police and fire
authorities. These authorities
will maintain an alert and
prepare, in case Of need, to
make the alarm throughout
the city.

of regular AFRAID alarm

broadcast throughout the city

according to civilian defense
officials. In absence of such
equipment police and fire au-
thorities have arranged to give

peated one time will be the
alarm. The all-clear signal

Definition to Include
All Defense Workers

The Alley Dwelling Authority to-
day called for immediate passage of
two pending bills in Congress to
deal with the critical housing situa-
ton in Washington.
A.D. A. pointed out that Congress
had passed only the Rent Control
Act which Should prevent profiteer-
ing but does nothing to increase the
number of dwellings, and that is
the great need
The announcement referred to
the Lanham and the Randolph bills
now before Congress. The first, TO
provide $300000,000 for defense
housing, has been reported out by
the House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds. The sec
ond, which clarifies the A. D. AS
power to borrow funds for public
or private sources, is before the Dis
trict Committees of the House and
Senate.
In addition to immediate passage
Of the two bills, A. D. A. said there
should be additional legislation pro-
viding for public utilities necessary
to service the added defense hous-
ing here.
The Authority further proposed
that the Lanham bill be amended to
include:
One, definition OF defense
worker broad enough to include all
who are employed by defense agen-
cies.
Two. a measure to facilitate con-
struction by enlisting all agencies
capable of contributing to the con-
struction program.
Three, provisions for housing de-
fense workers of all economic
grades by permitting rents in ac-
cordance with ability to pay.
