Revival

WE DON'T care how much you

don't forget to pay q visit to
l"Charley's Aunt" for the old girl
ID still one Of the funniest figures
In the American theater.
The current revival Of the Bran
don Thomas farce. which In the
final attraction of the Ann Arbor
Festival season in the Lydia Men

and bowling success.
Fortunately II has Jose Ferrer

duction.
His Characterization Of the
young English baronet who dresses
up AZ the lady, from Brazil to

classic.
You may have seen every one

In the role, but until you have

you haven't seen anything.
IT'S NOT DATED
You may logically have felt
that you weren't interested in a

nothing 1892 about the laughs and
II ID played at such q pitch that
you will have paroxysms.
Ferrer has made IL q one-man
show and has buriesqued it to
such an extent that it's out Of this
world. The comedy Is so broad
that you couldn't get q girdle
around II. even II there were no
priorities.
SWEET AND LOW
There's slapstick. fancy bits of
business and hysterical asides
which should make Olsen and
johnson take notice.
OF course, Mr.. Ferrer needs
able assistance TO put over his
nonsense. whether II be the abb
surd bottle scene. the piano-play-
ing pantomine, or just one Of his
low gags. and he gets IL from an
excellent company. including sew

they are both excellent.

MARINE CORPS QUOTA PRE-
VENTS ENLISTMENT OF
WEST COAST NEGROES

New York-Enlistment of Me-
groes in the U. S. Marine Corps is
based on the quota system which
shuts out all Negroes in the Pa
cific Coast area from serving, the
NAACP learned last week, when
the Marine Corps told the Asso-
citation that mo ALLEGATION has been
made to the Western Recruiting
Division because Of the smallness
of it's Negro population"
The information came in a mem.
orandum from the commandment
of the u. S. Marine Corps, and was
signed Wethered Woodwork. The
memorandum also states that if
there were recruits from the Wes-
tern division they would have to
he transferred to the recruit CEN
ter, New River, North Carolina.
The NAACP said this is another
illustration of the evil of the quota
system which restricts and, in this
instance, completely debars serv-
ice of Negroes in a branch of the
armed forces. The NAACP also
pointed out that there are more
than 100000 Negroes in the Pa
cific Coast area.

they have added three very fine

in every department from the Of

YOUR OWN FIREMAN

If civilian defense activity is to
achieve maximum results, the pre-
vention and control of fire must be
stressed at all times. No one
knows whether fire bombs will
ever rain down from the skies
upon our cities, towns, farms and
industrial centers. If that does
happen-and never forget that it
al happen-the very life of this
country may depend upon the eff
ficiency of our fire fighters, both
professional and volunteer. If it
doesn't happen, a public which is
trained in the basic principles. of
fire prevention can be of inesti-
mable service in reducing the vast
toll of fires which occur normal
ly."
1t has been said that many COM
munities have relaxed their civil
ian defense fire training simply be-
cause they couldn't obtain as much
fire-fighting equipment as they'd
like to have. Any community
which does that is asking for de-
strution. It would be very fine
if every town could be supplied at
once with all the apparatus it
wants. But that is obviously i'm
possible. And in the meantime,
every community should be pre-
pairing volunteers to handle equip,
ment when it comes-apd to fight
fire in other ways if it doesn't
come.

War Department decided that the
people should have a small portion
of the Army brought to them.
The Army War Show, called by
Golfers magazine "a blitzkreig
with the fangs removed" has
everything from a "jeep" parade
to the blast of the big 155 MILL
meter howitzers. In between are
the "walkie-talkies," huge tanks
and even bigger tank ~destroyers,
the motorized calvary, and a
squadron of the Air Force fight
ing planes. Climaxing the show is
a real battle action in which all
the guns boom and America gets
a chance to e the deadly Ameri-

field of battle.
