DRAMA ENDING TONIGHT,
 CAPITOL SCREEN

Alfred Hitchcocks newest sus- pense-drama Shadow of Doubt" playing tonight for the last time at the Capitol Theatre, is regarded as tile master directors most fascinat- ing screen achievement. Average American folks are the principals in the exciting story which has an aversge Am,rican town for its To-. eale.
 Teresa Wright and Joseph Gotten are co-starred and the town is ac- tually Santa Rosa, California. The dramatic theme is woven around a romantic murderer who hibernates in the home of distant relatives, simple, honest folk, totally unaware of his criminal record.
 Katherine Ellis, psychic, appears In person tomorrow at the Capitol.

HAVING FINE TIME-WISH
 YOU WERE HERE

Friends are separated these World-war days by many thousands
 of miles and numerous days of traveling-time. Almost everyone knows someone now in each of the seven continents. Not a few of these servicemen are stationed at mountainous inland points that are almost inaccessible; others are on islands to which letters will be carried only once in the next 10 or l2 months (some of cur Coastguard friends are now in such spots.) Any day a persons mail may in- clude word from friends all the way from Grcenland's icy mountains to India's coral strands currently famed in war bulletin as well as hymn.
 But once in while the circun- stanqes are just reversed. Last week the Director, Zach Gordon, received postcard from friend of his. This friend is Robert Bates, a major in the Army. He happens to be one of the best of all noun tain climbers and has ascended a number of the very high peaks. (The latest previous postcard Zach had received from him was from the Himalayas few years ago when he was on the famous expe- dition to K-2. the worlds second highest mountain) Since 1942 the Major has been helping to deter mine what clothing and what ra- tions are best for soldiers who must live in extremely low temperatures in various far-distant parts of the earth. Naturally he has travelled widely since he and Zach were last in touch with each other. In fact,
 he does not know that nearly a

year ago his friend left Philadel-
 phia to serve in the Juneau USO
 On the other hand, Zach hasn't had
 the slightest idea whether Major Bates is now in Iceland or Tibet or China, though he often thinks of this adventuresome friend and
 wonders what new excitement he's up to and where he is up to it.
 So, of course, it pleased Zach a lot last week to see Bob's hand writing on postcard lying in the mail box. He read it quickly be- fore turning it over to look at the picture. The message was brief just cheery greeting, best wishes and the word that the writer was enjoying the extreme cold. But WHERE? It bore Bob's old civilian return address in Washington, D. c. and was postmarked with a blurred APO, which revealed noth- ing as to the remoteness of his whereabouts, although the card, di- rected to Philadelphia, had been in transit for quite some time. Then Zach turned it over to discover that it was very interesting picture of a glacier. It was strikingly beautiful glacier-and you may ap- preciate that he was more than just a little bit surprised to learn that this particular glacier is called the Mendenhaa Glacier, and that it is located, according to the informa- tipn on the card, near Juneau,

CROSBY, LAM0UR AND HOPE STAR
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Last night the 20th Century The atre played host to the newest and funniest of Paramount's famous Road" pictures-"Road to Mor- occo,' starring those globe-trotters extraordinary, Bing Crosby and Bob Hope, and the more-luscious- than-ever Dorothy Lamour.
 With all due respect to its pre- decessors, Road to Singapore and Road to Zanzibar" the road the trio hit last night is laugh spree which sprints gigantic circles around the first two undoubtedly funny treks. In ."Morocco," Bing and Bob pull all the stops. Their gags arc so numerous and follow so closely on the heels of each other that some of the punch lines were lost in the general uproar
 The opening of the picture finds the boys silipwrecked on the. shores of Morocco. They make their way into a busy little town and head for the nearest hash house where they put on the feedbag in utter disregard of the emptiness of their pockets. While they are looking around for the nearest exit. Bing gets the nod from a native at the bar. He ambles over and after a short pow-wow returns to Bob with a roll of bills. He explains, with typical Crosby nonchalance, that he's just sold Bob to the native for two hundred smackeroos. Things go on from there at riotous. side splitting pace with everyone happy at the end.

Interesting Items for Everybody

of something experimental begun spontaneously.
 Last Friday night Aida had sev- eral games all ready to play. The program called for games party; and the fellows and the GSO girls came to take part in this scheduled feature.s They stayed, however, to enjoy something else even more.
 It was jam session, a very good jam session. the first of what we all hope will be long series of jam sessions. Doubtless it was. in- evitable that the evening would produce one, with those many musi- cal instruments on the bandstand just begging to be used. Through out the afternoon we'd been about to put them away in the storage room following the regular Thurs day night dance) but somehow they never got there-a lucky break for everyone. The session began simply enough with Soldier Moe Martoy at the drums, following the rhythm of the juke box. Good as he is on the piano, this excellent musician from New York City proved even better on the drums) Soon Coastguardsman Warren n Weaver, from San Diego, Calif., a new man hereabouts already we'll liked, joined in on one of the gui- tars; and a moment later another lad in the blue of that service, John Gicnfreddo, once of Connecticut. more recently from Washington, D. C.. was putting the bass fiddle to good use. And shortly they'd att tracted fourth in the person of Jim Throckmorton, member of the M. P.'s from Virginia, who added an occasional bar or two on the mouth organ. This quartet was pretty fair; aided and abetted by the juke box it was, in the lexicon of the music critics, at least "ade- quate." But with the sudden ar- rival at the piano of Pat Shaffer Accurately to be described incident ally, as very pretty" very fair" and more than adequate'D it was curtains for the juke box. From that point on this new pickup band picked itself up and really-no- doubt-about-it went to town. They all did a fine job of it and made big hit with the roomful of dancers who gave them an enthus- iastic hand in appreciation for one of the most refreshingly enjoyable Friday night parties ever held at the Club.
 Don't forget, you musicians: The USO will shelve just about any scheduled program event for an hour or two any time you can get up a hot jam session. Give us another as live as that one of Fri day and we guarantee you another big crowd of dancers on practically no advance notice.

WASHINGTON-Could you use pocket ash tray, an Illuminating door lock, or fan attachment for your sewing machine to keep friend wife cool as she works?
 Patents for such developments have just been granted by the U. s. Patent office but, in these days of priorities, you'll have to guess when they will be available. Appli- cations for most of them were en- tered prior to Pearl Harbor.
 That pocket ash tray might be the answer to a bridge party host ess's prayer. If you couldn't find a regular ash tray, there would be no need of flicking your cigaret on the sly behind the radiator. All you'd have to do would be to take your own tray out of your pocket It's cup-shaped gadeet with sev- eral trough-like little arms which can be slid from the main recep- tacle and projected ontwardly for holding your cigaref
 Lock for Night Owls
 The Illuminating door lock is de- signed primarily for vehicles, but, presumably, 1t might also be ap- piled to your house door as handy means of finding the keyhoie on nights after you've beer down to Joe's place playing seven-card stud
 It consists of push-button arr rangement to turn on a tiny light close to the keyhole. You're en- tirely on your own so far as find ing the push button is concerned.
 The sewing machine gadget is simply a far motiyated by the fly wheel.
 Nursery bottle Guard
 Other new patents cover:
 A guard for a nursing bottle with an attached chain which holds a nipple e-ccver and a spare safety pin.
 An Illuminating razor handle and a combination shaving mug and razor hone.
 A helicopter propeller-and a "bowleggedness- ess-concealing hose supporter"
