STATE

If you intend to see Irving Ber- Nn's Holiday Inn" co-starring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire with a score of other favorites you'll have to hurry as performances tomorrow evening at Waner's State theater positively concludes its engagement. The second big hit of the program is Doctor Broadway with Macdon- aid Carey and Jean Phillips in fea- tured roles.
 Starting wednesday the State ushers in another smash double show with Desperate Journey" star ring Errol Flynn as the headliner Of the program.
 Flynn who has become famous for his action packed roles, is now cast in a part more fraught with advan- ture and excitement than any he has played heretofore. The film presents Flynn in the role of a Flight Lieutenant in the R. A. F.
 Other famous players in the cast as members of the British Hudson bomber, of which Flynn has com- mand, are Ronald Reagan, Alan Hale, Arthur Kennedy and Ronald Sinclair. It Is as brusque, devil-may- care, and as hardy a crew as has ever set out to bomb Germany.
 In order to bomb their objective& more accurately, Flynn commands them to fly lower despite the fact that the section is known to have exceptionally heavy anti-aircraft protection. They start their return flight, after successfully bombing their objective, when they are brought down by particularly sharp burst of anti aircraft fire.
 The five prisoners of war are brought before B Nazi intelli- gence office. played by Raymond Massey. He fires many questions ct them, but one he neglected to ask was just how powerful Req gan's right hand is. He real izes his mistake after he has regained consciousness and his five prisoners have escaped.
 In Berlin, the story becomes even more exciting as the five continue to outsmart the Ges- tapo and set fire to e large plant that manufactures incendiary bombs. They meet Kaethe Brahms played by Nancy Coleman, girl who, living inside Germany does her best to help the Allied cause and sabotage the Nazis. It is through hei that they are able to reach the Hol. Hand border and make their eventual escape to England.
 "Almost Married" with Jane Fra. zee and Robert Paige Is the second big hit of the program.

By NEA Service

 New York. Sept. 2s Father Knickerbocker is mobilizing the white elephants and black sheep among his homes and skyscrapers to set the pace for the nation in the scrap drive.
 Scores, perhaps hundreds of de- crepit or useless buildings will be demolished for the scrap they con- tain. Thousands of tons of steel girders, more thousands of tons of fixtures and miles of pipe and wire of other war-needed metals are ex. pected to be added to Uncle Sam's stockpile.
 "GHOST BUILDING" IS
 SYMBOL OF DRIVE
 No. 1 white elephant and symbol of the all-out character of the drive is Hudson Towers, a 22-story. board ed-up, forlorn building whose empty shell has been haunted for IS years by the ghosts of high hope and boom time ambition.
 Hudson Towers was started in 1924 by group of doctors through whose rose-colored glasses it ap- peared super-de luxe private hos pital and apartment hotel that would be one for the book. But money ran out. They failed to com plete it. Various groups of promot- CTS added to it, but never finished the job, and Old Man Depression gave the whole project the final coup de grace.
