setting, exactly as IN the One-Set
production of the play by the same
name which played at the National
several seasons ago. Except that the
camera can switch occasionally to
the goings-on of the Russian forces
in the outer world, the motion pic
ture faithfully follows the play,
thereby assuming both its assets and
defects.
The main question is this: How
long can you remain in suspense
while Paul MUM, as the determined
Russian, contends against a need
for sleep while he holds the Nazis
at bay with tommy gun and hopes
that the Russian counterattack will
succeed so that every one will be
rescued by the Russians and not by
the NaZiS?
If you're inclined to carp over
melodramatics, you may constantly
remind yourself that Mr.. MUM, at
any moment he chooses, may open
up with his tommy gun, kill all the
Germans and settle himself for
nice long nap. Against this, of
course, is the fact he wants the
Evening star., 1945-05-25

NaZis alive so that he can get from
them all the information possible
that may help his cause That's a
rational argument. The difficulty
is, suspense isn't built on nationality
and for me the suspense wore thin.
Maybe you're different.
III grant you that all the drama
in the situation is exploited to the
full; that Mr.. NUM- gives a credit
able performance as Russian who
remains determined to the last,
however sleepy. The fact remains
that the action soon begins to re-
peat itself and what suspense you
feel must arise from within your
self.
There is one woman in the cast.
She is Marguerite Chapman and
she is cast in the role of Comrade
Lisa Elenko, who bids fair to be a
strong right hand to Mr. Mum dur
ing the early hours of their impris-
onment. That is taken care of, how
ever, when the Nazis put out the
lantern and in the ensuing melee
the fair comrade is wounded. After
that Mr.. Mum is pretty much on
his own. 1t may be you'll feel ex-
actly the same way.
One nice touch has been added
to the film version of Counter
attack" which was not present in
the play version. It's lifted off
page / of newspaper not so long
ago. That's the Russian idea of
spanning a river by building an in
visible bridge 18 inches under water.
over which the counterattack may
be launched.

Star of SalOme
Can Dance,
But That's All

"sALoME. WHERE SHE DANCED" a
Universal Picture with Yvonne De Carlo
and David Bruce, produced by Walter
Wanger. directed by Charles Lamont,
Screenplay by Laurence Stallings from an
original story by Michael J. Phillips. At
Keith's.
Evening star., 1945-05-25
The Cast

Just ordinary things won't do.
Something more than the vernacu-
lar is needed to describe "Salome,
Where She Danced" Besides, it's
only fair after all the time, money
and technicolor that Walter Wanger
put into this opus which opened
yesterday at Keith's.
How about a nice restrained sort
OF synonym for what we mean, like
platitudinous? That ought to do it.
Even sounds in keeping with the
grand scale on which the undertak-
ing was produced. With that little
matter out of the way, we leave you
the brand-new find that was sup
posed to send us sizzling back to our
typewriter. Suffice it to say, that we
are not of the opinion that talent
scouts picked Miss De Carlo for her
dancing ability alone.
To give you a rough idea of the
kind Of a gal this Salome was-she
dances well, the way most pretty
girls would under similar circum-
stances. AS a matter of fact, one
day she's dancing. particularly fine,
in this town called "Salome. Where
She Danced" (only the name comes
later, of course) and a notorious
badman of the West takes one look
at her. All of a sudden he starts
dribbling about Christmas trees and
pop corn and some other things that
never quite make sense.
From the final results we would
say the costume and set depart
mentS were the only ones that put
in much time on the production.
That giant, pale pink oyster shell
alone must have called for plenty
of overtime. 1t opens to reveal Miss
De Carlo for the first time amid a
myriad of floating seouinS, bubbles
and assorted feminine pearls Con-
fldentially all Miss De Carlo has to
do in any one of the more lavish
sequences is blink her eyes once or
twice and technical experts do the
rest.
The thing we're still trying to
figure out, however, is why every
body kept worrying all through the
picture about Salome not being able
to take care of herself. She looked
pretty capable to us. Actually, she's
about the only one in the picture
who comes through unscathed.
Let's see, that nerve-racking fenc-
Ing match between the German
baron and the cowboy leaves the
baron pretty messed up. Later the
cowboy doesn't come off too we'll
in that shanghai deal. And the
stage coach chase makes most
Westerns we've seen look positively
sick. There's even rocky cliff
handy in case any one decides to
jump.
If all this sounds little confusing
it's because the ODT wasn't func-
tioning Immediately after the Civil
War. AS you probably expected,
Salome is gal who gets around
and this includes among other
things ballet dancing in Berlin
dancing in whatever it was that
Salome danced in, singing in a
great mansion in San Francisco and
more dancing aboard a Chinese
junk conveniently at hand.
Before we forget it, in addition to
Salome, there's a mighty fine docu-
mentary film showing at Keith's
this week entitled San Pietro."
| It's definitely worth seeing.-P. S.

Or take one of the earlier scenes
in the picture where ROE and her

boarding school fashion the modest
young ladies first don their long
white nighties before they begin
shedding the petticoats. One, two,

interesting dialogue was literally
wasted. The last straw was when We
missed what Jack Carson said as he
tricked Roz into kissing him in the

for she married him a week later.

NEGRO MOTHERS and

CHICAGO, Dec. 19 (ANP)-The
Infant Welfare society of Chicago
has been able to carry on it's human
itarian work without being tainted
by color barriers and Jim crow poll
cies, reported Philip D. Armour,
president, here.
During last year 1898 Negro ba-
bies and children under six years
of age received care from the So
ciety's doctors, nurses and nutri-
tionists at it's Maxwell station, he
said. Housing in "this area is bad, y
he pointed out, "but families still
pour in from the SOUTH"
In pleading for aid to help ''us
help the Negro mothers and babies
around Maxwell street" the promi-
nent white philanthropist said that
children in such IAN environment
grew up stunted in body and warp
ed in mind unless they have help
in time. The mothers have nowhere
to turn except to the infant Welfare
society for help in keeping their
children from becoming i'll = no
other place to get the kindly, help

ter health and better healthful liv-
ing for the whole family"

ALL-NEGR0 VETS HOSPITAL

MOUND BAYOU, Miss. Dec. 19
(ANP)-This all-Negro commun-
equipped institutions of it's kind in
rejected all-Negro veterans hos
pital.
Mayor Benjamin A. Green and
his active town council declared:
There is no better site for hos
pital for Negro veterans in all the
United States than right here. This
is a quiet, peaceful, progressive
community and the boys would be
happier here than elsewhere"
The Veterans administration has
indicated interest and put the ap-
plication on file. There the matter
rests save for a lot of opposition
from Negroes, mostly in the north,
according to Green, who states that
whatever we may think of segre-
cation, we're going to have it here
in the south for the next 100 years."
Mound Bayou already has one
modern hospital, opened a few
years ago by the Sons and Daugh-
ters Of Tabor, one of the best
esuipped institutions of its kind in

reform School At Pikeville Exposed

CHICAGO, Dec. 19 (ANP)-If
reform means changing one for the
better, the Negro boys school at
Pikeville, Tenn, has missed the
boat. The shocking and revulsive
conditions prevailing there are
barred by liberal white woman in
an exclusive article in the December
issue of the New Vistas magazine.
Branding the school as one of
"the nations most notorious insti-
tutions," Miss McCulloch declares
that 40 to 80 boys are locked in each
barrack room at night with not
even a chair nor bench to sit on. Two
and three boys sleep in single bed
with no sheets. Located high in the
hills of East Tennessee, the school
is too remote to be visited by par
ents, doctors, social workers, and
others who might be interested.
Even murder and lynching have
taken place there.
'This is not a race issue," states
the writer, ''but a human ISSUE"
The school must be moved and COM
pletely reorganized, and intelligent
people must be placed in charge Of
it.
