 Rollicking characterizations of the gay world at fashionable Florida winter resort arc portrayed by George Sanders, Frank McHugh and Elizabeth Patterson. No thought of worlds worries and kindred woes enter into the story, which accord ingly provides excellent relief.
 The sets have been constructed effectively by Metro Goldwyn- May CTS art department. Costumes are brilliant, backgrounds spectacular and the musical arrangement is Hitting, with speciality number, T Dare You"
 Miss Shearer, invariably at her best in scintillating roles of comedy romance, maintaines her high standard of excellence. Taylor, again demonstrating his facile talents, comes from the merciless gangster role of Johnny Eager" to suave gentility as a sophisticated young man-about- town. McHugh and San derS arc superb comedians and the veteran Elizabeth Patterson is thor oughly pleasing.
 The story relates the ludicrous ad. ventures of charming girl at fashionable winter resort who en- deavors to elude the man she loves by accepting the attentions of an- other who adores her.

Capital Transit
Will Give Trial
For New Service
By Donald H. Cooper

After five years in the
transportation dogh ouse
with Capital Transit Com
pany's service Greenbeft
commuters face another Eek
pertinent" AS a result of
the hearing before the Mary
land Public Service Commits
sion November 16 the Tran
sit Company has been given
the privileges of putting on a
revised system for Greenbelt and
other Prince Georges towns during
a 3O-day period which shall be an
nounced by the company at least
five days in advance.
Two Transfers Required
The Commissions order speci-
fies that the present service shall
be maintained for the present dur
ing the morning rush hours until
3 a. m. After that time, and
throughout the evening hours, pas
sengers seeking public transpor-
tation to Greenbelt will transfer
from the Mt. Rainier street car to
the Branchville car at the Mt.
Rainier terminal, then transfer
from the Branchville car to the
Greenbelt bus at the foot of the
viaduct on the new Branchville
Road.
Local residents present at the
hearing protested that This propos-

their presence enlivened the old
sheet considerably.
In June, 1910, our first editor
in-skirts, Lillian Schwartz, took
over, succeeded in August by
Health Association nurse Dorothea
Ford (now Mrs. Sidney Henes).
In October the editorial chair was
vacant again, and remained so for
four issues, until Francis Fosnight,
our fiery photographer, popped in
to it. Frank introduced the
Monday-T Tuesday Wednesday work
shift for the staff, in place of the
Saturday-Sunday- Monday grind of
yore.
Journalistic Club Changed
The old Journalistic Club was
tottering badly at this point. Sad
but true, the townsfolk of Green
belt did not care enough about
exercising their democratic rights
as members of the Club to bother
to attend its meetings, and help
formulate the papers policies.
Shedding a tear for the Wane of
Democracy, or something, the staff
reorganized itself in the fall of
1910 into the Greenbelt Publishing
Association.
In August of 1941 the Cooper
ator went into the present printed
style with Frank continuing as
editor and with Don Cooper back
on the staff as assistant editor.
Two months later the Publishing
Association incorporated itself as
a security measure for the paper
and as a protection for the staff.
The next step forward came last
spring when "The Sports Parade,
a mimeographed bulletin of the
Recreation Department, was ANAL
gamated with the Cooperator to
once more provide sports news in
Greenbelt's community newspaper.
Don Cooper was given the ed
itorship for second time in June.

Air raid wardens will canvass
the homes in their areas this week
and next with tickets. Since all
funds raised will be used for
strengthening Greenbelt's pro-
lection against possible air raids
or other emergencies, every fam
lily is being requested to buy a
ticket. The 81 ticket covers the
heads of the family. Children
over 18 are asked to buy addition
al 81 tickets. Those under that
age will be admitted on 25 cent
