Jane Eyre
Is Superb
At Cass
BY CHARLES GENTRY

1T IS an ironically tried and
true fact that wartime is invari-
ably time for great sentimental
indulgence. The more bloodshed,
the more tears shed, and the
average person adopts false set
Of emotional values by which he
judges everything from his pri-
vate life TO his public entertain
ment.
Since this response is so near
the surface, il takes the exercis-
ing of a considerable amount of
good taste to keep the call to
handkerchiefs from being simply
maudlin one. These are the days
in which the tear-ierker and the
blatant farce really thrive and
the entrepreneurs of public offer
ings are very likely to capitalize
on IL TO the fullest extent.
Fortunately, Luther Adler and
Sylvia Sidney. VINO are currently
appearing at the Cass, have
steered clear of the sloppy pit
falls and have presented version
OF Jane Eyre" which is chiefly
notable for its romantic quality
and quaint charm, not for its OBJ
vious maudlin tricks.
When we first heard that
Luther and Sylvia were going to
tackle the Charlotte Bron { e
chronicle. we shuddered and
called for our eye cup.

Parsons
in NoMvooa

WILDWOOD, July 20 - The
last story written by Franz Wer-
fel before he fled from Europe
was a novel, Loves and Hates
of Zorah Pasha." The story be-
hind this book. which Jack Skir-
ball has bought for the movies, is
amazing. Werfel lost the COM
pleted manuscript when he was
fleeing the Nazis.
Later, upon arriving in this
country, the novelist and friend,
Frederick Torberg, who had read
the original, reconstructed the
entire version from memory!
What a heartbreaking and back
breaking experience for any
writer. %
Far be IL from me to insinuate
that / am in Werfels class. but i
have just completed my own
book, THE Gay Illiterate," and
If it were lost between now and
the publishing date. i would
never have the heart or the cour-
age 10 try 10 salvage IL from
memory. Skirball expects to start
production on the story OF the
famous Egyptian princess before
1943 is out.

SIMPLE AND GREAT

All, but We were wrong Sylvia,
who can turn on the water works
when she wants TO. makes a Jane
Eyre" Of such great simplicity
that she emerges a really beauti-
ful, glowing and human character,
not the stilted prude of Miss
Bronte's revelations.
Adler. on the other hand,
proves a perfect foil. His "Roches-
ter" is dignified and studied fig
ure, who finds himself caught in
an emotional whirlpool from
which he cannot escape.
But beneath his grim facade,
Adler inlects humor into the part,
.The tortured man is still some
what amused and he makes you
believe that his love for Jane is
something OF a preordained thing

lacking was baby in snowdrift

REALLY CREDIBLE

Both Sylvia and Luther do mi
raculous things with their assign
ments because they make per-
fectly believable two characters
who could easily become. in less
expert hands. quite ridiculous.
Unfortunately all of the sup
porting cast is not quite up 10
their high standard.
Cora Witherspoon has n small
part in the third act which she
does brilliantly. Teresa Dale is
splendid as the old houSekeeper
Of Thornfield Hall. Katherine Al
len handles the insane wife well
saa-J-W,-Atsstia,- CLYDE LAaddell
and two or three others are very
good. but the rest of the cast

Pope Prayed in Office
During Bomb Attack
By the Associated Press.

~>~~
MADRID, July pa Spanish
correspondent who was in Vatican
City Monday during the bombing of
Rome said yesterday the Pope re-
manned alone in his private office
praying, meditating and studying
through the two-hour bombing in
the distance.
The Rome correspondent of the
newspaper va said he drove his
automobile through the gates of
Vatican City just as the first alarm
sounded and Swiss Guards closed the
gates. The first bombs fell on Rome
while he stood on the patio of San
Damaso.
The upper galleries OF the patio
suddenly filled with groups of digni-
taries and employees of the papal
court, some of whom went to the
modern bomb shelter which is capa-
bic Of holding the entire population
Of Vatican City.
Others, including the correspond
ent, sought comparative safety un-
der the archways and staircases.

All the curtains Of the Pope's pri-
vate office where the pontiff was
working when the bombing began
were drawn save one which was
opened that morning. Through it.,
the correspondent said, the Pope
was able to watch the bombing.

District Man Commended
By Knox for Savina Ship

Comdr. william Peters Hepburn,
U. S. NJ. a native of this city but
whose home is now at sos Beverly
drive, Alexandria, Va, has been
commended by Secretary of the
Navy Knox for saving a merchant
ship at anchor from destruction by
two enemy torpedoes.
At the time of the incident Comdr.
Hepburn was acting as the repre-
sentative of a task unit commander
aboard the merchantmen.
This vessel" the citation reads,
"was lying at anchor when she was
attacked by an enemy submarine
from range of less than 1000 yards.
With supreme presence of mind, you
ordered full ahead on all engines
and full right rudder. BY this
prompt action you caused the ship to
swing rapidly to the right, 30 that
one enemy torpedo passed very close
ahead and one very close astern OF
the vessel. and no hits were scored.
As q result the ship was saved from
damage which might have resulted
In her loss and the loss Of the val
uable cargo which she carried"
