GENE KRUPA TOPS
 LYRIC PROGRAM
Popular Band Leader in Five Sunday Perform.
 afices; Star Comedian

The Lyric theater in Bridge offers this week another grand burlesque bill that features that torrid blonde. Marian Miller, the queen of culver" and Charlie Kemper, round, two hundred pound comic.
 Miss Miller has mastered an ,in- usual technique which she employs as the highlight of her strip.tease routine.
 Charlie Kemper is enjoying his first season in burlesque. He came to the business almost direct from Hollywood, where he learned the fine art of comedy from Mack Sen- nett, the laugh king of the films. Kemper appeared in dozens of comedy shorts" for Sennett when the vogue for that type of entertain nent was in its heyday.
 Next Sunday, April 18th, for one day only, the Lyric presents a gala, Easter stage production in which headline honors go to Gene Krupa, "The Drummer Man" and his uni- que and famous orchestra. Krupa and his band will be seen in a brilliant presentation with all the popular entertainers of the Krupa organization, plus Q grand lineup of the best variety acts obtainable.
 When swing music ascended to the heights of popularity, Krupa was the first to perceive the pos- abilities of the drums as Q feature of an orchestra. Having played the drums for Goodman, Nicholas and other top-flight band leaders, he was eminently qualified to organize and lead a band in which he could feature a vast array of percussion instruments. He manages to achieve with his drums what no other drum mer has ever been able to do, find melodic strain in the blending of his snares, kettles and base drums. He is probably the most initiated instrumentalist in America, hun- dteds of drummers having follow ed his pattern in drum beats.
 Krupa will be seen in five com- pete performances, Sunday at the Bridgeport Lyric.

borhood of the Albanian frontier.
 Route May Be nlificult
 British commentators held, how ever, that the mountainous country of Central Greece might prove most difficult for the operation of Ger man tanks and aYmored cars.
 They said that the forces defend- ing these heights were much larger and better equipped than the small Greek attachments who were out fianked in the Rupel Pass sector but were believed still holding out at the pass and elsewhere in the Strurna valley.
 Further they said that the Ger mans were lengthening their lines of supply and becoming increasing ly vulnerable to bombardment by Royal Air Force planes, especially in the narrow Vardar Valley. 2
 The Allies still command the Mediterranean and most of the Greek ports and there was no rea- son to assume their lines of supply and endorsements were imperilled, they said.
 Vernon Bartlett, member of the House of Commons and political ex- pert for the News Chronicle, wrote:
 Mt. Olympus In Again
 MT. Olympus might again play a part in history, since It's slopes command the railroad to Athens. Only If the Germans can cross these mountain ranges will the situation become very serious. With Skoplje in their hands they control not only the Vardar Valley but also the Mon- astir Gap which leads toward these Central Mountains"
 The Jugoslavs, 1t was indicated, were trying to reach the Greeks in Albania while the Germans were trying to effect solid contact with the Italians.
 A Columbia Broadcasting Ankara correspondent, in @ newscast picked up here, said that the Germans had reached the Lake Ochrid area at the corner of the Jugoslav, Albanian and Greek frontiers.
 Tt is quite possible, he reported, that the Germans have already joined with the Italians"
