Composer White
In Violin Recital

Clarence Cameron White, diStin-
gulSh Negro composer, whose chosen
instrument is the violin, was heard
in recital last night at the Fifteenth
Street Presbyterian Church. Pre-
Sented under the auspices of the
College AlumAae Club of which
Portia C. Bullock is president and
Betha Howard Collins, chairman,
the concert was for the benefit of
its scholarship fund.
Mr.. White, whose musical readings
were received with appreciative
applause. opened his program with
the Vivaldi Concerto in A Minor"
following it with Gade's Sonata in
D Minor" the second written by
the Danish composer who was highly
esteemed in other European coun-
tries.
A pupil in his earlier days of S.
Coleridge Taylor, Mr.. White includ-
ed that well-known composers MI
bian Song" in a group together with
the Wagner Wilhelmj Prize Song" "
the Russian writer, Paul Juon S
"Berceuse," and VieuXtemps' Sal
tarello"
With the sympathetic accompani-
ments Carl r. Diton provided
throughout the recital, Mr.. White
closed with four of his own works,
"On the Bayou" Camp Song, y
Negro Lament" and Negro Dance, "
in which his adaptation of racial
themes for the violin showed both
creative facility and a feeling for
the emotional powers of his inStru-
ment. The program was heightened
by several encoreS. A.E.

Santa's Ride Off in HOLLYWOOD

giving Christmas, in tune with the
current Sixth War Loan drive.
Three milkmen on Bel-Air routes
are going to get the surprises of
their lives when they clump up the
back steps OF three movie-star homes
Christmas morning. These stars
have been caching cigarettes and
will come up with q carton for each
not bribe, mind you, but just a
little reward-in appreciation for
good service.
One Of the principal worries Of a
director undertaking q new film is
the various good sides" of his per-
formers. Almost every star has a
good or a bad side, or must be photo
graphed exclusively front view. And
the men are almost as finicky, nu-
merically, nowadays as the women.
So, when Robert Young asked Di-
rector John Cromwell If he might
face the camera a certain way for
an early scene in "The Enchanted
Cottage" the director shrugged and
said to himself, Well, here it
comes" But Young was quick to
explain.
IF I turn this way" he said, "Ill
have to put my left arm around Miss
Mcguire, and that puts my left hand
into direct focus"
Then Cromwell understood. On
Bob's left hand was a signet ring
given him to wear for luck by Gun
ner Donald E. Mckinney. Mckinney
had made it from a piece OF mag
nesium from Jap Zero he had shot
down in the South Pacific. The SOL
dier has returned to action and Bob
wrote and told him he was wearing
the ring in this picture. So this was
to be Bob's way Of getting 1t into a
closeup so Mckinney would know
he had kept his word, if and when
the gunner sees 'The Enchanted
Cottage"
Several years ago MGM an
nounced with great fanfare that it
would make a picture called THE
Harvey Girls" based on the birth
and progress of the Santa Fe Rail-
roads chain of station-side lunch
rooms. 1t was put on the shelf be-
cause the legal details couldn't be
cleared
Now. however, it has been made
safe for production, and the script
has been overhauled and assigned
to Judy Garland, Ann Sothern and
John Kodiak. Most of the early
Harvey girls married affluent
ranchers and the scenario will delve
into a couple of these cases.
Actors are nicer than ever to
lonesome soldiers these days. Bill
Eythe ran into three Australian
servicemen the other day, took them
to lunch and through Goth Century,
Fox for tour of the sets. He also
got them a flock Of autographed
pictures.
Mr.. Eythe has just been rewarded.

HULL WOOD.
Announcement few weeks ago
that Santa Claus would ride Holly
wood boulevard again this year ap-
parently was premature. The ira
ditional prewar ride of old Kris
every night over a 30-day period
preceding Christmas is definitely
off-and a lot of up-and-coming
movie actors are disappointed.
The famous thoroughfare will be
decorated, as of old, with masks of
Santa strung up on the lamppOsts,
facing two ways, but the nightly
excursion of that snow putting,
celebrity crowded sleigh on wheels
must wait for more peaceful times.
The chamber of commerce is fearful
of criticism in regard to the items Of
gasoline and rubber, and, anyway,
the personality Santa Claus who
served eight straight years has gone
away to war.
In it's heyday, the Santa parade
on the sidewalks along the two-mile
boulevard. The national publicity
it engendered served we'll those
younger players who fought for a
chance to ride next to Santa and get
pictures taken alongside HIM.
Nevertheless, Hollywood and its
environs will present more Christ
masy appearance this year than in
any Christmastide since 1910. With
outside lights unrestricted, Beverly
Hills residents will engage in their
usual pretentious competition, with
prizes awarded for the most inge-
NOUS front-yard displays. In nor
NAL times this is the most gorgeous
Christmas spectacle Hollywood sup
plies, and attracts so many nightly
sightseers that special police are put
on duty.
Stores are crowded with shoppers,
but studio surveys show that most
stars plan to make 1t War Bond

gerry could accomplish even SO much
as give her the courage to ap-
pear before her closest and most
understanding friends. The spirit,
Miss Bannerman learned then, was
as much or more hopelessly dis
figured by such an experience.
1t took her months to learn that
both could be completely healed
that the dark terror involved did
not take into consideration-as why
should it?-the progress in modern
plastic surgery.
Xxx
1t was when the first of the seri-
ously war wounded began to return
that Miss Bannerman, another ac-
tress anxious to do her bit in the
war, decided that her experience
might be of great benefit to the
facially disfgured.
Her investigation of the posi-
pility of such service left little
doubt that she could be useful. Her
first discovery was that these men
did not want to see any one. They
occupied closed wards, closed by
their own intense volltlon. Ihey
were reluctant to see even close rela-
tions. She understood their attitude.
1t was precisely her own several
years ago when she wanted only
never to be seen. and it's correla-
tive of not seeing.
Army and Navy medical officers
heard her story and knew she would
be perfect for the morale of the
men under their care. They found
her not merely a triumph of the re-
storative power of plastic surgery,
but vibrant, vital personality,
enormously capable of communicate
ing her own high morale to others.
They told her story to the men
in plastic surgery wards. The men
listened and were impressed. They
did not want to see any OF the
ordinary glamour people OF the

their own spiritual wounds. But
they would see Miss Bannerman.
1t resulted in a job that is unique
among those being done by theater
people 1t is widely agreed among
service medical authorities that it
has accomplished enormous good.
Miss Bannerman is enormously
happy doing it. The Disagreement
she once loathed as only beautiful
woman could has turned into some
thing of which she has become
proud. 1t gave her war job to
do, one she does as many hours
as possible in every city where she
is living or playing.
She has been doing it for many
months, always with the notion
that it must not be publicized-that
mention of it might be miSunder-
stood.
We don't think that is possible.
On the contrary, it seems that her
story can have as much encourage
ment to the relatives of such
wounded men as she has found
herself able to give to the men
themselves.
We hope Miss Bannerman finds
it so and does rot mind our having
told it.
