with far less whoopee and noise
than in former years although

Complying with an order from
the second interceptor command
prohibiting the use of sirens, whis-
ties and gun shooting for outdoor
rejoicing for fear air raid scares
might arise, Taeomans restrained
from a heaven-piercing din as the
clock tolled midnight.
But indoors at theaters, at
church watch parties. at private
clubs. at homes, the New Year
was welcomed with zest which
included much cork-popping. The
aters were crowded to capacity
Night club operators through
