"The movies" says Frank Sinatra

way you are on the screen. Every
body's the same way. And when
you get that look, you're conscious
that only part of you gets over

The famous Voice" now out here
to continue the celluloid phase of
his phenomenal career. draws a
strong contrast between screen
and radio.
"A man in my spot is crazy if he
goes into pictures said Frankie,
but 1t gets you and you can't re-

I swear / am going to be independ-

Nary an excuse for spectacle has
been overlooked, as music, girls and
costumes focus on the screen in a
rapldity of Kaleidoscope confusion.
BY the time you realize that the
script department was probably the
only division which didn't put in
overtime on the production, a grand
military motif brings the musical
to 4 close From beginNing to end
it's the technicolor that makes "Pin
Up Girl" It's practically as vital
as the cosmetic brand to the real
live variety.
Although one might be apt to
forget 1t from advance publicity
stills, Miss Cradle also sings. Thanks

handicapped than publicity agents

It's good to see Joe back even

didn't scream. But he did get in
some good laugh lines. AS the night

The most popular thing in the
Capitols program this week is un-
questionably the singing of Jerry
Wayne, young man with better
voice, but the lazy singing style of
Bing Crosby. He is the years only
act we have seen leave stage to
an audible sigh on the part of an
audience, but that Is what he did
at the first show yesterday.
Coley Worth is Gene Ford's choice
in comedians this week and is not
bad one, although couple of his
jokes are. Otherwise, the program
is composed of Virginia Austin and
her puppets and the Earl Lind

driving YOU singing and laughing
into the night are Dick Powell, Lu-

Lahr. They and the others involved
have it in them to do higher and
more beautiful things that Meet
the People" demands.
In the conventional halfhearted
way of desperate writers assigned
to fllmusical jobs, the authors of
the Capitols attraction came up
with an excuse for bringing a lot of
speciality performers before what
ever audiences might be attracted
to Meet the People - Powell has his
opportunity to sing and make ro-
mantle passes at Miss Ball and she,
in turn, to make the standard re-
sponses. Miss O'Brien, the dead
pan colleen who has made an art
of singing fiery tunes with the cold,
eXpressionlessness of statue of
Cicero, gets into the flow of the
story plausibly enough, and so do

they get there there is virtually
nothing for them to do that seems
worth doing.
Persons with memories for such
things may recall that there was a
much publcized revue called by the
same name. 1t was production put
together by a group of talented
Hollywood youngsters who got tired
OF sitting on studio steps waiting
for jobs. 1t had long run in Los
Angeles. attracted lot of attention
and finally came East. 1t probably
should be reported to those who do
remember the original that the only
thing left of it is the title-and Miss
O'Brien.
This Meet the People" is prin-
cipany about an actress, Miss Ball,
who is won as a date in a bond
rattle by shipyard welder, Powell.
He is none of your plain expert
craftsmen. however, but one who
writes plays with social significance
as an avocation.
With two basic characters like
that, plus a shipyard background
where entertainment for the per-
sonnel looks much more logical
than even shipbuilding, you have
the chance to bring on as many en-
tertalners as can be jammed into
an hour and a half.
After Monroe has opened the pic
ture with a spot of warming band
music, Powell injects the first vocal
interlude with number, I'm Times
Like These" which is very timely
title, but is conventionally on the
subject of love. The number is the
one which the producers deemed
worthy of being reprised, which it
is with Monroe singing it and with
even Miss Ball taking a brief turn

T,uo Leading Examples

Looking over the map, it is my
guess that the high school students
Of Texas and Oklahoma are given
the best chance for development on
both the physical and competitive
side. No wonder so many football,
baseball and track stars come out
of Texas and the southwest in gen.
eral.
Texas and a big portion Of the
southwest will shortly be getting
much larger dividends than any 9TH
er section of the country from a
saner use Of their youth power Con.
ditions in the larger cities of the
country are deplorable where SO
many millions of kids between 10
and Is years old are involved. These
youngsters rarely have any chance
at all to find the physical fiber SC
badly needed later on.
And the depressing point is that
so few Of the older people seem tC

A THOUGH night baseball has
been the most important factor
in keeping the game alive during
wartime, there are still q few I'M
believers in the major league cir
cults.
Ed Barrow, president of the New
York Yankees, has little enthusiasm
for the vesper version. According to
columnist Dan Parker, he cooled off
on the proposition almost half CEN
fury ago when his Paterson, N. j.,
club of the Atlantic league, starring
one Honus Wagner, took part in the
first professional ball game under
arc lights at Wilmington, Del.
1t was back in 1896, about the first
of July. And, according to Parker,
TN the Pickering blue light of car
bon-stick arc lamps, the first night
game in organized baseball ran into
trouble soon after it got under way
when the rival pitcher, steamed hp
by Barrow to play a practical joke
on Wagner, substituted a Fourth of
July torpedo for the ball the first
time bOw-legged Honus came up to
bat.

and met the paper-covered bag Of

How about Younger Set?

In the meanwhile, who Is to look
after the training and development
of the younger boys, those between
the ages of IL and Is? This group
is well below the draft age so their
condition is not a military problem.
And yet this is the time such help
is needed more than ever.
Many of these boys get some sort
of chance to build up their bodies
and their competitive mental atti-
tudes at various prep schools and
boys clubs, but this list Is in q
heavy minority. There are mill
lions who get no such opportunities.
AS a result the majority Of our
youngsters are well below the aver
ages Of many other countries.
Returning officers and enlisted
men from Australia will tell you the
average Australian or New Zealand
kid gets much better service Of this
sort than we give over here. We
need far more trainers, coaches
and instructors in every section Of
the country.
When 100000 boys around IS years
old are drafted and some $4,000 are
found to be physically unfit for serv-
ice, you get q general idea Of our
present poor conditioning program
for those who need the right train
ing more than any one else.
I should say that less than $4,000
boys out of 100000 are up to the
physical standards they should know
at Is. Boys of 10 should do a lot
more walking. running. jumping and
swimming than they do-not in COM
petition. but in the way Of exer.
cises needed to give them the right
foundation for future living.
