self q little slow in recognizing the
] amazing versatility OF the former
Pittsburgh boy who has been sta
toned recently In Washington, 1t
can blame Metro Goldwyn-Ma
instead of itself. The studio actually
is quite innocent. It has done well by
Kelly, everything considered, but
until Anchors Aweigh," he suffered
the unacceptable fate of being on q
roster that had too much talent, II
there Is such a thing. He was given
good roles, but none which gave op-
portunity to show the fullness OF q
talent that Is destined to bowl over
even the most enthusiastic of his ad-
mirerS.
Kelly completely dominates every
department Of the last picture which
he made before entering the Navy
The trick Is the more impressive for
the fact that the cast Is fairly lit
tered with such names as those OF
Frank Sinatra (who does his finest
piece Of cinema performing), Kath-
ryn Grayson, Jose Iturbi, Pamela
Britton, and others, among the latter
most notably youngster named
Dean Stockwell.
1t is in the dance department,
however, that he finally proves that
he is perhaps the most talented sin
gle performer on Metros elaborate
pay roll-which goes for Mickey
Rooney, also versatile fellow.
There are four major numbers,
ballet-tap items, which deal with
such basic themes as a horn n-pipe,
combination Of the Latin Amer
ican dances from the tango to the
samba and an acrobatic oriental that
covers more area than movie audi
ences have seen since the days OF
Douglas Fairbanks, the elder.
The piece of Kelly choreography
that will charm the heart right out
Of the public in his latest picture Is
the South American interlude in
which he dances long, brilliantly
gay interval with what appears to
be a Mexican girl child who has at
tanned the great age Of 4. Put it to-
gether with one he does in cartoon
sequence, and 1t establishes Kelly as
the most imaginative choreographer
the movies has found in a decade.

Speaking of versatility in male
actors, OrSon Welles does not deem

NIT him to play role in Eighty

Welles will direct the opus, leaving
the players more familiar with the
musical formula to do the actual
work.

way to show a complete lack Of 1t

Snow Ploxs
Urge Motorists

Lack Of manpower for hand
shoveling of snow this year has
created problem on business
and residential streets. Street
Department officials point out,
and they ask the full cooperation
of motorists in reducing the dan
ger and inconvenience.
Motorists are asked not to
park their cars at the curbs of
residential streets (outSide their
houses) unless this is unavoid-
able. Snowplows, being used at
top efficiency d espite many
handicapS. cannot do a complete
job for snow clearance if cars
are parked at intervals down a
street, officials point out.
Persons with driveways be-
side their homes. or vacant land
nearby. are urged TO keep their
cars off the streets.
The Police Department has
been notified of the problem by
