Sudden Thawt: Critics complain
about war films being too grim
What do they expect from war pic
tures-chuckles? The summer
uniforms of the WAACs are honeyS
Favorite sound: The clink Of
lce-cubes in glass of giggle-soup
Whatever became of the best
Of the war songs, anyhow? Praise
the Lord and Pass the Ammunition"
Plugged into an early tomb.
The war has finally come to
Coney Island Hot dawgs have
doubled in fee :. 1t wasn't so long
ago that New Workers worried about
getting a seat in the subway. Now
they just hope to get into the train
We hasn't seen any, but we
hear several good looking gals are
now motormen on trolley cars
A blonde gal cabbie near the St.
Norris is WheW!
A crack a little while ago chat
our soldiers in Africa fought in the
humidity we're having in New York;
Just had a little brother, to wit:
"And they didn't have any air-cooled
movies to go to, Bub!" There
probably is gas shortage, but the
traffic jams at shoW-break time
around Broadway apparently never
heard Of 1t Show biz is funny
When Porgy and Bess" first pre-
nliered as a show here it Topped
at the box office, and the flicker
firms ignored it At its revival
not long ago it clicked big. Now
Hollywood offers six figure check
for the rights :. Biggest vaudeville
circuit now is the U. S. O. tours.

POLI'S

Current attractions concluding
their engagement this evening, at
the Loew Poll theater consist of two
great hits.
"Bataan" the story of thirteen
men and their heroic efforts to
cover up General MacArthur's mas
terful retreat from the Japs, stars
Robert Taylor, Lee Bowman
Thomas Mitchell, Lloyd Nolan, Bar
ry Nelson, and many others.
The second hit on the program is
Prairie Chickens" with Noah
Berry, Jr., and Jimmy Rogers, son
of the late beloved Will Rogers, in
top notch comedy
Starting tomorrow and for two
days only, is another double smash
stage show. Johnny Long, who
brings his band to the Loew Poll
theater stage, not only pilots one
of the fastest rising young bands in
the country, but he can claim fur
ther distinction as the only left
handed violinist in popular music
In January of 1912, the band re-
ceived one of the highest honors, in
being the one chosen to play at the
Presidents birthday ball in WASH
ington, D. G. On a tour with the
Andrews Sisters the orchestra solid
flied its popularity with old follow
ers and gained many new ones.
In April, the band invaded the
south territory and completed a
successful four weeks engagement
at the Roosevelt Hotel in New Or
leans. They also created a sensa-
ton at the Midtown Manhattan
hotel, and during this engagement
received the well earned title of the
miracle band of the year." Feat

DOUBLE FOR CHURCHILL

Hollywood, Cal. (UP)-Lt. Comdr.
Mark Huber of the U. S. Maritime
Commission is so much of a natural
double for British Prime Minister
Churchill that he is constantly be-
ing mistaken for the latter. In Bos-
ton a crowd of Churchill admirers
seized him and refused to be con-
WINGED otherwise, until assured that
Churchill was at the Casablanca
conference. He is 20 years younger
that Churchill.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-06-29

Rogue Espirtu, Alex Havier and
Donald Curtis play the other SOL
diers in the epic of bravery.
On the same program is Prairie
Chickens" with Noah Berry, Jr.
Tonight the Strand brings to q
close "Sarong Grip with Ann Corio,
and II Escaped from the Gestapo"
with Mary Brian.

Radio appears concerned about
the many scriptwriters who've been
drafted :. Except for CorWin, Obo-
Ter and some others, we can't think
Of many who'd be missed &.
Technicolor films are usually very
pretty, but some producers imagine
Colors hide yaWny theme
Sweden may be neutral. but this
tips off where their sympathies are:
They've chosen as their favorite film
~Mrs. Miniver," a dramatic indict-
ment of NaziiSm :. Despite the in
eessant knocks, Mission to Moscow"

BA draft classification is keeping

who said it couldn't last forever.
The second-rate horror films,
which seldom get a good notice
from the New York deadpanners,
are among the biggest money-mak-

along Kyle Crichton, Ye Old

Lena Horne hasn't a good singing

hasn't bad voice and anyhow,
with her many other attractive fea-

its present war.

ELK HUNT REPORTED
BY CARRIER PIGEON

GREELEY, Colo. -P)- On a
trip into distant mountains, E. B.
Repp and party took along carrier
pigeons to keep Mrs. Repp, al
home in Greeley, advised of the
progress of an elk hunting ex.
petition.
Repp carried four pigeons with
him to the White River country,
about 300 miles from Greeley. The
camp was far from telephone or
telegraph wires.
The first pigeon, flying straight
across the mountains, made the
trip in "a hours and informed
Mrs. Repp there is lots of game
but it will be hard to get"
Another bird arrived the next
morning and reported the party
shot three elk. A duplicate mes
sage was carried by the third
bird. The fourth pigeon informed
Mrs. Repp of the exact hour the
party would return SO she could
have hot coffee and soup ready.

her of receipts written was 308
making the average receipt
$38 a. The report showed total tax
collections for the city and county
combined to be S26,97423.
A report of the North Carolina
State Board of Charities and Pub
lie Welfare revealed that old age
grants to the county had totaled
S., 331.63 while aid to dependent
children was s1,949.62. Total allot-
ments for administration of the
above agencies was $430.31.
The commissioner deferred ac-
ton on a request by W. H. Blake
to purchase a tract of land from
the county on the Castle Hayne
road for the proposed cost of
$3.50. The tract was approximate
ly one and two-fifths acres. The
board spent Monday afternoon fol-
lowing the meeting investigating
the proposal to determine whether
Or not it would detract from the
land ostensibly set aside for
a new county home.

RUSSIA TO GET
AMERICAN HELP
Community Chest Contri-
q buttons To Partly Aid
Ravaged Nation

This year citizens of Wilmington
and New Hanover county will con-
tribute funds to the National War
Fund and it's II war-relief agencies
which have been included with the
10 Community Chest agencies of
Wilmington into one all-inclusive
campaign starting November 8.
One of these agencies is the Rus
sian War Relief, Inc.
Imagine the great cities of Pitts
burgh, Nashville, Knoxville, Louis
vile, Mobile, Washington, and st.
Louis destroyed, block by block.
Imagine the rich crops of the
Ohio valley burned, and the cotton
fields and tobacco fields OF the
South rotting blackly in the sun.
Picture the mine fields of Pitts
burgh and Virginia blasted a d
bombed.
Above all, picture the misery of
the people-untold millions OF them
living in dugouts and huts. With
out food or clothing. in winter.
And imagine ten million Amer
leans dead of war wounds, star
walton, disease, and exposure.
This is what the Russian people
have suffered in the past tw
years.
But the Russian people have not
faltered. They have moved their
industries and power plants and
workers beyond the Urals. They
have lost their richest farm and
mining lands, and they have gone
on fighting. And they have prom
ised they will continue to fight
until victory comes to the United
Nations.
Responding to the overwhelming
needs of the Russian people, Rus
sian War Relief, an organization
created to ship relief supplies. was
founded in 1941. 1t is a private,
nonpolitical organization of the
American people, providing those
basic necessities of clothing. medi-
cal supplies, sheets, blankets,
seeds, and miscellaneous supplies
which are so direly needed. No
funds are sent to Russia, and sup
plies are shipped on Soviet boats
at Soviet expense.
The Russians have destroyed
more armed power of our enemies
troops, planes, tanks, and guns
than all the other United Ma
tons put together according to
President Roosevelt. Aid to Rus
STA is effective aid to our own
fighting forces, and their task will
he easier because of Russia's
steadfast resistance today.
