CURTIN APPEALS
 FOR VOLUNTEERS
Chief Air Raid Warden Asks Patriotic Citizens
 to Aid Defense Council

Amplifying recent appeals from city and Defense Council offlciab, Chief Air Raid Warden James J. Curtin today urged Waterburians to show more interest in Waterbury's defense Set-up. Recent apathy has disrupted to some extent the orr ganization of the various centers and forced volunteers to remain on duty for long periods without relief.
 At the weekly meeting of zone and precinct wardens in the City Hall last night MT. Curtin stressed the need of more volunteers.
 He said: Tt is absolutely neces- sary that Q certain number of per- sons be on duty at all times to pro- tect the city in the event of an air raid. Many persons have offered to help but they fail to carry out their promises. Clubs and lodges have been talking about forming teams and being responsible for certain periods, but no definite action has been taken. It has been all talk and no results. The time has come when we are charged with the responsi- bility of civilian defense must speak plainly and harShly, much as we dislike to. I do hope that shop work CTS, white collar workers and others not now devoting any time each week to civilian defense will volun- teer."

WHATCHA DOIN TONIGHT,
 HONEY?

WHATCHA DOIN' TONIGHT,
 HONEY?
 (A Guide to the shows)
 Angel Street: Well-monickered. It isn't about B'way, street of angels, but its theme is. It reveals a no- good driving his wife nuts under cover of pretending to love her to distraction. But the main Idea is murder, of the shuddery species, which the Britons handle cun- aingly. The affair is polished by the troYping.
 Arsenic and old Lace: Here's a landmark. It's heading into a sec o1d Summer, still splitting sides. You don't have to be told again that the fun comes from two nice Brooklyn ladies, very tea-and -cakes types, who take the huImdrlm out of Flatbusll by poisoning anybody who happens to drop in for a nip. You realize how crazy the family IS when you know that Boris Kar- lotf, who murders because that's his trade, is the saneSt of the bunch.
 Best Foot Forward: Here you have a lot of tots getting the joint to jumping. The juves and little misses are fresh and energetic, and they prance to one of the more hummable scores. Joy Hodges and Marty May give the adult touch to the caperings, with Gil Stratton, Nancy Walke:' and a Kindergarten full of churns to put muscle and vibration into them.
 Bltihe Spirits: Noel Coward erect ed his best comedy on an idea that's insane like a fox. The setup shows a dead first wife coming back home to hurl darts at her successor. It is the most stylish show in town, r1ppling with Cowerd,s whippsest witticisms. The cast gives you a hell of time with the heavenly theme.
