many's greatest actors. The Last
Roundup is the story of a group
of provincials living near Rheims
during the period from May, 1899,
to May, 1910.
THE Guild has selected truly
magnificent (sic) cast, Dudley
Digges, Walter Slezak, Alexander
Knox, Karen Morley, the picture
star; Wesley Addy, the original Or
sino in the Hayes-Evans Twelfth
Night; Arlene Fances of Abbott
fame. Flora Campbell, Art Smith
and 80 others. The play is being
directed by Worthington Miner with
settings by Watson Barratt. The
entire production is under the super
vision of Theresa Helburn and
Lawrence Jangner."
And so, we await April %.
So, in column dedicated to the
literature of press representatives,
why not another, this from the Cap
itol Theater:
THE most unique (you mean the
onliest one of the one?) dancer in
show business will come to the stage
of Loew's Capitol tomorrow.
This is George Church, ballet
tap dancer of the Paul Draper school.
Church does such amazing tricks
as % pirouettes and triple turns in
the air-feats that were never
touched even by Nijinsky.
What makes Church most amaz-
ing, however. is the fact that he
was a professional boxer and
wrestler with Sc straight wins to his
credit when he began his dancing
career.
In addition, he tied the world S
weight lifting record with a one
arm bent press lift of 208 pounds,
was semi-pro baseball champion,
9.8 l00-yard dash champion, won
the Massachusetts, class B ski Jump
ing championship with leap of 1853
feet, was basket ball player and
qualities under any rating as an all
around athlete"
Rightly, too, after all that even if
it comes from a press book.
From the Earle's RoXyettes:

Novelties Presented
By String Quartet
By ALICE EvERSMAN

The Chamber Music Guild String
Quartet continued on the individual
istic line it has adopted for its pro-
grams and gave concert last eve
ming at the Cosmos Club that pre-
sented several novelties. The con-
cert was the second of a series
started after the first successful ones
earlier in the season. A representa-
tive audience of music lovers filled
the attractive hall, welcoming the
artists of the organization and those
assisting on the program with
warmth that bespoke the place of
esteem the group has attained since
it was formed last year.
Each program features work by
an American composer and seldom
heard composition by other masters.
In this respect this group of artists
is doing a real service for few of the
chamber music ensembles bother to
seek out what is little known or to
recognize the creaive powers of ma
tive composers. Most serious music
writer's have tried their hand at
composing for combinations of in
struments, but their efforts have
received scant attention. The de-
termination of the Chamber Music
Guild String Quartet to remedy the
situation is to be commended.

even more important is the fact that when Greek Minister Diamanto- poulos asked the State Department abount munitions, the British En- bassy called him down. Britain would handle all arms purchases from the United States, he was told, and would allocate part of the cap- tured North African arms to Greece.
 This week also, the Simovitch Government asked London friends what munitions they could get di- rect from Britain. This question also had been asked by Prince Paul, and the British answer was one reason for his equalization to Hitler.
 Bluntly put, the British replied that the Yugoslavs could capture Italian munitions after driving Mus solini's army out of Albania. To this the Yugoslavs retorted that their guns had different bore from the Italians that it might take a little time to capture the Italian munition dumps, and finally that they under stood the Italians arms already had been promised the Greeks.

IT GIVES PAUSE

For 20 centuries Holy Week has given pause to the worldly pursuits of man; has urged the mind and the soul to look upward toward glorious new vista.
 Its spirit it's symbolism and its meaning have endured through years marked by well as by peace, waxing in the of hopeful human con- duct and waning somewhat in the times that try the soul But never since the first days of Christi anity has it been devoid of spirit without it's meaning Regardless of the season of civilization it has been dynamic influence against the base traits of mankind.
 On many occasions before Holy Week has come upon world at war. It occurs this year at time black with dread, heavy with despair for the future It may seem an incongruous spectacle-this week of tender devotion against background of millions of under arms.
 It is not Holy Week that is incongruous, the faith from which it rises. The past 20 centuries tell the story of the futity of war, and of the i'm mortality of faith and devotion.

The Frontier Pace
(New York Times)

(New York Tfmes)
 Americas newest frontier, around the Granc Coulee Dam, lies in the northwesternmost corner o the country American pioneers following the set ting sun, seemingly cannot go very far beyond Granc Coulee without toppling into the Pacific Ocean ol trespassing north into Canada If there is to be still another American frontier where it possibly be found2
 The answer is that our next new frontier may conceivably turn up thousand miles this side of the Columbia River Valley if not indeed three thou- sand miles this side, somewhere along the Atlantic Ocean. That has been the outstanding trait of the march of the American frontier. It has not moved forward but leaped forward. It did not advance a step at time, consolidating the territory behind it The American covered wagon blitzed its way across the continent leaving great empty spaces to be filled
 Thus it happens that the frontier around Grand Couee is only 15O miles perhaps from where the Oregon Trail ended at the Columbia River, and the Oregon Trail more than a hundred years ago. In 1943 Oregon will doubt be celebrating the tennial of Marcus Whitman's big emigrant party, but the first settlers in the Oregon country a dozen years before that In that year. 1882, Daniel Boone had been dead only dozen years, back in Missouri, where the 2,OOo-mile Trail started.
 When the first big covered wagon train started out for the Columbia River all of Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas empty. When California en- tered the Union, in 1850 there were fewer than two million people living west of the Mississippi River Better still in 1850 Western New York was semi frontier.
 That is the way it has been with the nations frontiers from the beginning-no planning, no self restraint but gluttony and hand-to-mouth. In 1925 we open up the Erie Canal In the 183Os we are at the Columbia River In the l920's back in Florida, opening up new Winter frontier in Miami In l94l we are back again on the Columbia River. It has been widely accepted idea these last ten years perhaps the dominant doctrine, that this country has reached its full growth. If that is so it must be in the same sense that the high school boy who hits feet has reached his full growth He won't grow any taller but there's plenty of filling in to be done

MEN vs. REGENERATION

The British position is completely understandable. Desperately short of airplanes, tanks, anti-aircraft guns, and all mechanized equipment, they cannot spare it much more than the United States can spare it for our friends in Latin America The British must help defend not only the Balkans, but also leave a considerable number of men and munitions in Libya, where the Ger mans have now landed five divisions to bolster the Italians.
 British airplanes have been sent to Greece, but not in sufficient num- bers to equal the huge concentra- tions behind the Nazi lines. where Hitler is reported to have brought much of the air force previously used against England.
 That, briefly, is what the British Greeks and Yugoslavs face in tn, Balkans. From the point of viev of modern warfare it is not happ, picture. But. from the point of viev

ARMY DAY

With an uncomfortably large part of the world now at war Army Day arouses more than mere academic interest in the state of national defenses in 194l also to focus attention again upon the fact that national defense is an undertaking which must be gauged in years. not in months.
 The World War experience illustrated the advs- ability of efficient preparation. When the United States entered the war there only 100000 rifles for all of armed forces When the Armistice was signed only half of armed" strength was equipped with shoulder pieces Similarly, the Ameri Expeditionary Force had only 500 cannon and was forced to borrow 5000 from the French and England and to purchase twothirds of the necessary ammunition from the Allies
 The most striking feature of the situation was not the inadequacy of American at the outset of the World Warrior that was understandable in the light of this nations peaceful ntentions-but the vast Reorganization and ineffciency which accom- panied our wartime effort. This where lack of planning proved most damaging.

DANGER AT GIBRALTAR
Most startling information regar

Most startling information regard ing Hitler's secret strategy to bottle up the British fleet inside the Medi- terranean has just leaked out from Spain. There, the Nazis have ar ranged with Dictator Franco to rush total of 120 giant 14-inch guns down to Gibraltar when the signal is given.
 The guns were manufactured by the famous French munitions firm of Le Creusot and were used in the Maginot Line. But the Germans have now taken them out, and of- fered them to Franco. At first Franco demurred, said the presence of guns on Spanish soil would open him up to retaliation from the Brit ish, would spoil his chances of get ting food and supplies from the United States.
 So it was arranged to keep the guns on the French-Spanish border. They are mounted on railroad cars ready to be rushed down to the Straits of Gibraltar. Overlooking no detail. the Nazis have even put a second set of wheels on the flat cars for use on Spanish railroad tracks, which have a different gauge than the French.
 Fourteen-inch guns are a match for the guns on most battleships and are far more powerful than the 8-inch guns used on cruisers. Sc military strategists believe that 12C Of these monsters, able to fire across the Straits to Africa, probably could cork the western end of the Medi- terranean, to say nothing of poupd- ing Gibraltar into a shambles.
 Of course, closing Gibraltar twoulc not mean much withouta simultat. eous attack upon Suez, but this i.
