STATE

If you intend to see Bud Abbott
and Lou Costell in their latest laugh

at Warmers State theater you'll
have to hurry as performances to-
morrow evening positively conclude
its engagement. Sealed Lips" with
william Gargan, John Litel and June
Clyde in featured roles is the second
hit Of the program.
Walt Disney has done it again.
The genius who created such I'M
forgettable pictures as Snow White,
''Pinocchio," and Fantasia" has
scored another screen triumph with
his newest ful-length feature pro-
duction entitled Dunno" in techni-
color, opening Wednesday at the
State.
"Dumbo" is the first Disney-made
long feature in which Disney and
his staff were totally at liberty to
let their imaginations run riot with
out fear of stepping on the public'S
toes.
For in the cast of the unfor-
gettable Snow White" and of
"Pinocchio," the Disney staff had
to be Scupulously careful not to
offend those legions of readers of
these classics who maintained de-
finite mental pictures of the char
acters, drawn perhaps from the book
Illustrations or from written des-
criptionS.
But the story of "Dumbo," the
Iovable baby elephant born with
Sail-like ears, was bought in manu-
script form from a publisher be-
fore the public has seen it.
So successful was this free method
of working that the picture sets
an all-time Disney production
record. The entire picture was COM
pleted in a year and half. Actual
production took only year, fairly
startling improvement over the two
and half-to- tnree-year records Of
previous full-length Disney pictures.
In this colorful and captivatirg
circus story. Disney had ample
opportunity to develop the types of
characters he likes best; lovable,
ugly duckling little "Dumbo" him
self; the Anticipated stork delivers
him via parachute to his grieving
mother; Dumbo's gentle mother her
self, Mrs. Jumbo, the formidable
social leaders of the elephant clique;
the Matriarch, Giggles, Prissy and
Catty, whose names give delight
full sense of anticipation to "Dumbo. .
No account of "Dumbo" is COM
plete without reference to the nine
new songs making up the brilliant
score.

Gay Fruit And Vegetable Buttons
Add Test To Spring Style Menu
BY MARGUERITE YOUNG
(NEA Service STAFF Writer)

New York-Buttons, so long shy
and retiring, lately have been as
serting themselves as distinct style
accents on suits and dresses. And
the coming seasons new crop has
some Of the brightest and gayest
you can imagine.
Two attractive specials" on the
spring button menu might be called
vegetable plate" and fruit cup"
These are in a gay group of seven
different button originals utilizing
very lifelike fruits and vegetables in
colorful hues. They are made for
the first print dresses.
There are beets, green peppers,
squash, tomatoes, egg plants and
---yes-onions. Some incorporate
the whole vegetable, others show
the vegetable split in half and hung
on the dress. There's actually

low bowl, filled with sculptured
vegetables. This is done in sizes
varying from that of dime to that
of a. dollar. The dollar size is
clip-pin. Matching button and pin
are shown for many types of
clothes.
The fruit cup" idea, bit more
restrained, is a series of plastic butt
tons, Stimulating various fresh fruits.
There are Strawberries that look
luscious enough to eat. The button
is a single berry, one leaf, one tiny
white blossom.
-Four of these in row down the
front of last springs round-necked

clip showing a spray of leaves with
several berries, worn on the cuff of
a gauntlet glove, makes a seeming

lemons, apples and other fruits.
Other interesting big-button Or
iginalS of this type are a colored
straw braid disc, green moorstone
in a cut-out gold metal cartWheel,
and a second center with polka-dot
rim.

THE DIS CALL 1T COLD

THE DIS CALL 1T COLD
For the first twenty years or so
it irked me to hear intelligent folk
persistently describing their nose
and throat trouble, whatever it
might be, as a "cold," but now
adays I scarcely raise an eyebrow
at that just think, oh, well, If
he is content with that phony ex-
PLANTATION of the trouble why should
I care?
But, then, I can't, always dismiss
1t as lightly as that. Too often the
victim manifests signs of cri and I
begin skirmishing to get out of con-
versational spray range as quickly
as possible. I yearn to yell "All
right, call it what you will, but I
don't care for a sample today, thank
you" You know, you're reasonably
safe from conversational spray in
lection if you can contrive to keep
more than five feet away from the
Brighter. Of course he can still get
you, as far as ten or twelve feet
away, with an open-face sneeze or
cough, though intelligent people
nowadays openly object to that sort
of thing when they can actually feel
the impact of the spray droplets.

or illnesse cold" he implies it is of
