Film fans have paid many COM
pliment to celluloid favorite but
nothing compares to the poignant
story of 22-year-old Pilot Officer
Jerry Kelly of the r. A. F. Before he
was killed in action recently, Kelly
listed Judy Garland, a girl he had
seen only on the screen, as next
of kin Judy received the news in
q letter from friend of Kelly's who
felt it my duty to perform this
small task" The friend wrote the
,tar: Jerry was one of your most
ardent fans. He never had very
much happiness in his life. His
mother died when he was very
young. His father enlisted in the
r. A. F. as an aircraft gunner two
years ago and was killed in action
last year. The little happiness Jerry
did have came when he saw your
pictures. He idolized you. After his
fathers death, he listed you as
next of kim"

'Gertie From Bizerte," will reach

revived by singer Frank Sinatra will
be burlesqued on Broadway this

POLLS

Continuing to thrill and delight
audiences at all performances is
the great double feature program
now showing at the LoeW Poll the
alter.
The first big hit is Young Mr.
Pitt with your favorite Academy
Award winner, Robert Donat in
the leading role. You will remem-
Der him for his outstanding per-
Torrance in Mr.. Chips for which
he won the Academy Award. This
is his first picture since. Peerless
artist that he is, Donat makes of
Pitt the Younger's loves and strug-
giles thing of absorbing drama
and breathless romance. The film
is notable, too, for the superb per-
formances of Robert Morley, Ply

BENNY AND ROCHESTER

Although Jack Benny is not in the
picture, the Benny COM
bination will not be broken in M
G. Ms broadway Rhythm" Every
time Rochester gets into trouble in
the picture, he goes to a telephone
and calls Benny. It's a running gag
in the film. John Garfield is
glorying in the description Cary
Grant gives him in their new pic

A recent bulletin from the Owl re-
quests an increase in the number
of Jap Williams portrayed on the
screen. 80 from now on" says
Director Robert Siodmak, "You can

knock out 10 Japs single-handed in
stead OF an even dozen.'
CALL FOR COMEDY
One soldiers reaction to the flood
Of films with war backgrounds:
Man made thunder roars and man
made lightning flashes while hell is
raising from above Yes, enemy
planes are the cause of all this
turmoil and destruction. This is
reality far superior to what any
motion picture company can pro-
duce. We, the fighting men of Am
erica. must put up with one of
the most disgusting headaches of
this war and millions will agree.
Why must we see a continual re-
hinder of what we had to face?
Why can we not be cheered up with
movies of humor, leaving out any
of war? (Signed A. G. I. fed up

Private Life Of Clowns
OF Interest To Public

Many people want to know all
about clowns, and many prominent
people in many cities have found
out what they want to know by
meeting the star clowns of the
Ringing Bros. and Barnum and
Bailey Circus, coming to Waterbury
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
July Is, Is, II and informally inter-
viewing them during cocktail hours
or over a table after the show.
Almost the first question asked
is: Abe clowns really melancholy
clan out Of grease paint? Then the
questions usually come in this Or
der: Are clowns family men? Are
they studious? Are they serious
about life? Do they get big salaries?
Do they think up their own gags?
Are they good company? Are they
well informed? And so on.
Clowns off duty are normal men
with normal motivations, and they
shape up generally as does the av-
erage man. Some of them are stu
dents, especially the foreign ele-
nent. All are well informed. They
are almost all married, many to
performers, and they are serious
about life in the sense that they
look to the future of themselves,
their wives and their children. The
star clowns salaries are reasonably
high and the pay is all velvet, as
the show furnishes them sleeping
quarters on the circus trains and
feeds them well on the lot in the
shows dining department. The
average clown is amply paid, &C
cording to merit. They all think up
their own gags. Many have hobbies
stamp collecting, chess, bridge,
painting; candid camera-ing, mod
cling and music. Clowns really

Los Angeles, Cal. - CUP - Six
year-old Jerry Larrimore, along

Suit oColirt in
County 3rd Time

For the third time in 10 years
the John Karallis suit against Peter
SchenaS will go to trial in Imperial
county superior court.
The case already has gone to the
appellate court and is headed there
again because Wednesday a new
trial was granted on approximate
ly one half of the amount disputed
when Schenas bought an Ell Centro
cafe lease from Karallis.
Karallis said Schenas agreed to
pay him 81 900 for the lease and as
SEme and pay a note for 81 ,059
which Karallis said a business part
ner had given him. This partner
is now dead. Schenas denied that
he had agreed to assume the obli-
cation. Interest has run the total
amount up to $4,000.
The new trial was granted on the
$l,059 represented by the note.

England's Idea
OF Nutrition
Principles
Every Inhabifanf
Gets Fair Share
Right Food
By Edith NJ. Barber

A new attitude toward food is al
ready beginning to show in this
country since we began preparations
for defense. 1t has taken war itself,
however, to make us begin to under
stand the important place which the
daily food has in general good health
and efficiency.
Previously, we were considered far
ahead Of England in our conception
Of nutrition principles. Today we
find that in spite Of food scarcities
and rationing England has attacked
the food problem in such a way that
every inhabitant gets q fair share Of
what is available. At q recent show
ing Of English films 1t was demon
strated that industrial workers, as
well as the armed forces, were being
supplied with nourishing hot food
and that special provisions were
being made for children. The lack
Of vitamin G, when shipments Of
citrus fruits practically ceased,
caused q search for another supply
which was found in black currants
which grow plentifully in England
and which rate even higher than
oranges. Much Of the vitamin B Is
supplied by what is known as the
National Loaf" q bread made from
a special type Of flour. In the in
terest Of the meat, poultry and milk
supply, Canada is turning some Of
her wheat fields into pasture lands.
Every available piece Of . land In
England Is being made to produce
vegetables for home consumption.
The soldiers during harvest time 90
back to the fields.
When we realize that In spite Of
all these efforts the food available
IN England Is still 20 limited We
should feel obligated TO choose food
for ourselves with regard to the
nutriments which II contains, and
to be Ingenious enough to use It In
the preparation Of attractive meals.

tables are too high for our pocket

ness. 1t gives us strength for the
days work and sees us through
times Of strain.
We are only too familiar with the
tragedies that such conditions as
hidden infections and organic de-
struction can produce in the ap-
parently well person. Too often a
superficial appearance Of health
blinds us to significant signs which
only a doctor can interpret. Reg
ular visits to your doctor give you
opportunity to report initial signs
of illness at a time when correction
is easy-the fatigue, the poor ap-
petite. the loss of weight that may
indicate serious trouble or that
may merely mean slowing up for a
time and taking needed rest.

ordinarily includes eye, ear, nose
and throat examinations, chest
X-ray, inspection of teeth, blood
test, urinalysis, Wasserman test for
syphilis, as we'll as observation Of
glands, posture, muscle tone, skin
and bone strength. Your doctor may
also bring to your attention poor

Pernanents Can
Be Gotten Too
Frequently
Be Sure Hair Is in
Good Condition
For the Wave
By Patricia Lindsay

Many are the complaints Of hair
that has been ruined by too fire.
quent permanent waves, and the
victims cannot blame the hairdress-
ers entirely. If hair Is not In healthy
condition 1t cannot take nice wave.
Nor can one wave be given over
another which has not entirely
grown out.
An experienced, conscientious hair
dresser will advise a client to wait
a month or two for q new wave If
her hair Is not In good condition.
But If q client insists upon getting
wave despite such genuine advice
then she must take the conse-
quences and not blame the hair
dresser II her wave is kinky or
brittle.
II your wave has almost grown
out and you are very DESTROYS Of
getting another to boost your morale
then request that all the old wave
be cut of before the new one is
given. Your hair will naturally be
an inch or two shorter and if that
is too short you should wait a month
until your hair has grown more.
During that waiting period you will
have to fuss with your hair and
set 1t each night or day to keep
1t curly and trim.
Most girls and women who have
hair that is of normal texture or
dry would benefit by pre-permanent
wave treatments which include the
use Of scalp tonic every other
day, scalp massage with fingertips
every day, brushing every day,
amounting ends with a lubricant
every other day before the brushing
session and hot oil treatment be-
fore each shampoo. Shampoos
should be about two weeks apart.
If such schedule was adhered to
for two months before one planned
to get a wave the result would be
deep, lovely waves and softly curled
ends.
If you possibly can shampoo your
hair the day before you are to
have your permanent. 1t should be
brushed well the night before and
the morning of the day you get your
wave That helps the hair to be
naturally fabricated and it stands
the waving solutions better.
No head looks very well directly
after 1t has q permanent wave. It
takes a week before the hair shafts
are again supplied with natural
scalp oil and then the first sham
poo softens the wave and washes
OF the residue Of the waving solu-
ton. II the hair seems dry and
lacks gloss give it one or two treat
ments with reconditioning hair oil
and again resort to your scalp tonic
two or three times a week. A little
commonsense in hair care keeps
your head looking lovelier!

Dorothy Dix Says
Young Wife Should Rally Spirit,
Garry On Despite Loneliness

to suffer no greater hardships than
all the other millions Of wives whose
husbands are in the Army. They,
too, hated to be parted from the
husband they love. They, too, real
lied the dangers their husbands
must face and knew that 1t was pos
sible that they might never come
back, but they didn't try to keep
their husbands from doing their
duty. They bucked them up to do
1t. They said good-by to them with
q smile and bit back the tears that
stung in their eyes.
And they didn't pose as martyrs
or nurse their fears and wallow in
their sorrow until they broke down
their health. They got jobs and
went to work to support themselves,
and many Of them to support their
children. Or they went back to
their homes and are carrying on
bravely, making the best Of life as
they have to live it.
Perhaps 1t will help your daughter
to snap out Of the morbid state of
mind she has gotten into II you can
get her doctor to warn her that If
she goes on nursing her martyr
complex she will wreck her own
health and not be able to support
her crybaby husband when he re-
turns to her. And that she may be
very sure that all Of his complaints
Of Ill treatment in the Army are
nothing but self-pity and have no
foundation In fact. The only trouble
with him is that he Is selfish and
self-indulgent. He has never been
made to do anything he didn't want
to do before, and he simply can't
take it.
Civilians have been told time and
time again not to write depressing
letters to the boys in the service
that 1t hurts their morale to be told
OF how the people at home are
breaking their hearts grieving over
their being away, and about the
hardships they were going through,
and every other melancholy thing
they could think Of.
It is about time the men in the
armed forces realized that 1t is lust
as much their duty to keep up the
morale of those they left behind
them by writing cheerful letters,
instead Of a chapter of lamentations
over the hardships they have to
undergo.
