STATE

The atmosphere was charged with
excitement today at Warmers State
theater when the topnotch adven-
ture. thriller give Graves to Cairo"
with Franchot Tone and Anne Bax-
ter co-starred, supported by Akin
Tamiroff and Erich Won Stroheim as
Field Marshall Rommel, began its
engagement.
The picture is fast-moving, sus-
penseful melodrama of behind-the-
lines intrigue in North Africa, to
which the audience reacted with the
rich appreciation it deserves.
Set against the background of the
British Eighth Army African cam
paign, 1t tells the story of how a
British tank corporal, Franchot
Tone, stumbles into a hotel in Sidi
Halfaya which is about to be taken
over by Field Marshal Rommel for
his staff headquarters. Tone. with
the aid of Tamiroff who owns the
hotel, and Anne Baxter, French
chambermaid, pretends to be a
waiter. How he wins the confidence
OF Rommel and learns the secret
OF the Five Graves to Cairo" makes
the picture exciting entertainment
1t is. Getting away from the hotel
and through the German line is no
small feat, and Tone finally accom-
plishes it at great sacrifice to the
little chambermaid.
The picture is topnotch in all de-
partments but deserves special COM
mendation for its intriguing story
and excellent transformations. This
is the first time Rommel has been
depicted on the screen and the Job
Won Stroheim does Is strikingly real
istic. He is the arrogant, conceited
Nazi desert fox" to "T'", his years
of portraying Prussian soldiers
standing him in good stead in this
the meatiest role of his career.
Tamiroff, too, as the Egyptian
hotel owner, does a fine piece of
work and is responsible for much of
the humor with which the film is
spiked.
BY all means mark give Graves

picture to see. You're sure to en-
joy it.

of them had to wear stockings.
Others couldn't work in Stacks.
Still others were fired if they

''PETTY TYRANNY"
The war is lifting these prissy
regulations, and showing them up
for what they were-neither sensible
nor democratic, but just so much
bunk.
If it is all right for women to go
bare-lgeged in war time-it is all
right for them to 60 bare-legged in
peace time. And the same is true
of all the other silly restrictions
put on women, just because they
are women
Now that war has made it OBJ
vious even to employers how alb
surd such. regulations are, maybe
they'll never try to enforce them
again.
A woman's right to a job should
be based on only one thing, her

is assigned.
Whether she wears stockings while
she is working at the job is ell
