Winter Truck Crops Show
Gain Over Year Ago
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Agriculture Department re-
ported today that commercial pro-
duction of such winter truck crops as
snap beans, cabbage, green peas ano
tomatoes was larger this year than
last.
The Florida snap bean crop was
estimated at 1,680,000 bushels, or
about 6 per cent larger than a year
ago. However, the department had
forecast a crop of about 2,480, 900
bushels, but heavy rains in mid-Jan-
uary caused considerable damage.
The early cabbage crop was placed
at $4,000 tons, compared with 2l9,-
300 tons produced last year.
Production of early green peas
was estimated at 1,438,OO bushels
compared with 100000 in l94l.
The early tomato crop in Florida
was put at 1,238,000 bushels. The
harvest last year was 805, 900 bushels.
Preliminary surveys indicate, the
department said, that the strawberry
acreage IN the early and second
early group of States, excluding
Florida. would be 87,150 acres, COM
pared with 92,230 harvested in l941.
The acreage of commercial early
potatoes in Florida and the lower
valley of Texas was estimated at
24,l00 acres, or about the same as
planted last year.

 Tomorrow the State rshers in the smash production you've been await ing Wake Island" starring Brian Donlevy, Macdonald Carey and Robert Preston with a huge cast of favorites.
 "Wake Island" comes to Water burians at regular State prices and depicts the soul-stirring stand of handful of Marines battling against tremendous Jap odds to hold strategic patch of desert soil in the Pacific. "Wake Island" is an epic document of American fighting, courage and skill. In it is enshrined the shining heroism of that little band of Marines and civilians that held out for days, outnumbered, out-equipped, oJlt-stripped in every thing but courage and determined fighting spirit; in 1t are enShrined the meaning of this var and why it must be won.
 One faels tnpelled to shout hur- rahs for the realistic re-enactment of the Wake Island struggle, for the direction that John Farrow gave 1t and for the spendid acting of the hand-picked cast. Tn addition to Donlevy, Preston and Carey the tal- ented cast includes such favorites as Albert Dakker, Walter Abel, Bar bara Britton and William Bendix.
 "Wake Island" is truly gripping thrilling drama and genuine enter tainment. About one-third of the film is focused on the actual Wake Island battle itself, beginning with the sneak Jap attack. From then on the screen in filled with diving screaming battle planes hurtling down on Jap warships and lunging at each other; with roaring cannon machine guns chattering theil death-dealing, steel jacketed deniall to Jap troops attempting to storn the beaches.

 Tony originally comes from Md dletown, Conn, where his father was a cabinet maker, which ac- counts for the fact that Tony also Is capable of swinging a mean hammer along with his ability on the saxo- phone, which he took up because of his admiration for Jimmy Dorsey, Before he formed his own band he was with Smith Bellew, Joe Ven uti, Vincent Lopez and was with the original Artie Shaw band that played in Bridgeport, for a local owner of a nite club there, he also led the band when Shaw was i'll and has had the present band since l939.
 Pastors band does not consist of one star. There are group of stars with the band and among them, well known ot you are such favorites as Johnny Morris. better known as "Paradiddle Joe", he is the drummer of the band, wrote such hit songs as Knock Knock" was featured in movie shorts for his dancing ability and, best of all, he comes from New Haven, Conn. Charlie Trotta is the ace trumpet man with the band. He worked with Tony in the Lopez band and also with Artie Shaw and also come from Middletown, another local.

new film.
 As a typical American boy in England's most exclusive school, Mickey has some of the most hilari- ous scenes of his film career, and some of the most dramatic. He plays American football and English cricket, he runs a steeplechase. He leads twelve little Eton boys in a slapstick brawl with four husky walters of a roadside inn, and he licks the Eton bully. In short, there isn't much that Mickey doesn't do.
 While Mickeysis his usual bril- liant self as "The Yank," Freddie Bartholomew, playing in his fifth picture with Rooney, also is out standing. Now a full head taller than Mickey, he is hard to recognize as the little boy who once starred in David Copperfield."
 Several newcomers also are excep- tional, including Tina Thayer, as Mickey's new heart -throb, and Mar ta Linden, his new screen mother Edmund Gwenn scores as the jovial Eton housemaster, while credit for able performances is also due Ian Hunter, Alan Mowbray, Raymond Severn and Peter Iawford.
