IN MEMORIAM

In memory of Abraham Bounce" Rem
nix who departed this life one year ago,
May Is, 1914.
We often sit and think of you when we are
all alone,
For memory is the only friend that grief
can call it's own;
Like ivy on the withered oak, when all
other things decay,
Our love for you will still keep green and
never fade away.-Harriett Rennix, wife
Ruth Mae Norris and Helen C. Bowen,
sisters; Floyd L. Rennix, brother; Mrs

TWO FEATURES
 ARE AT CAPITOL
 FOR TWO DAYS

My Best Gal" and 'Tarzan's Des- ert Mystery are the two features for tonight and Saturday at the Capi- tol Theatre.
 Hollywood put the pep and vitality of Jane Withers, the spirit of Jimmy Lydon, the experience of Frank Cra- ven, the pedantic comedy of Frank lin Pangborn, and the fine singing of Fortunio Bonanova, all together mixed it well, named it My Best Gal and turned out a most de- lightful concoction of Americana.
 Jane Withers is supported by a good chorus and she presents a new dance, the "Upsy Downsy."
 Romance, action and thrills laid in the Sahara desert provide the plot of "Tarzan's Desert Mystery"
 Johhny Weissmuller as Tarzan, Johnny Shaffield as Boy, and their friend Cheta the chimpanzee, come down from the jungle into the dangers of the desert in this action packed adventure picture.
 Nancy Kelly makes her bow in the famous series as the beauty who jcins forces with Tarzan against Nazi agents who are seeking to gain the confidence of powerful native shiek. A pitched battle between Arabs and Nazi-led border rene gades forms the action climax of the picture.

RAVI5HING STAR
 ANN C0RI0C0MES
 TO 10TH CENTURY

Ann Corio is the ravishing star of The Sultan's Daughter the sparkling Monogram comedy-drama which comes to the 20th Century Theatre tonight The title role gives her every opportunity to ap- pear in the revealing costumes of the mysterious East, and to display the charms which for years made her one of the most potent attrac- tions of the burlesque circuits. Charles Butterworth plays the principal comedy role in this story of Oriental intrigue, and other im~ portant parts are enacted by Tim and Irene RyanD Edward Norris, Fortunio Bonanova and Jack La Rue, with Freddie Fisher and his orchestra to supply the music. Other members of an exceptional cast are Gene Oliver, Cris-pin Martin and Joseph J. Greene.
 The plot of the story concerns love and oil property in about equal proportions, with a brace of Ger man agents thrown in for good measure, and the result is a lively tale of cross purposes. Glimpses of the sultan's seraglio aid in adding an intriguing atmosphere to the pro- ceedings.
 The added feature is Stranger from Pecos" with Johnny Mack Brown.

Clearing the Perspective

Editorial in st. Paul Dispatch Nov. s. 1945)
1t is to understand why the injustice too often
visited upon minority sections of society should provoke
its victims to occasional extravaganza in the expression
their resentment Nevertheless ultimate solutions do not
lie that way for unconsidered recrmnaton is inevitably
only an abrasive of already spots.
Correspondngy, every sign that temperate judgment
prevailing in the discussion of these matters which
ever side it appears to be welcomed for it's constructive
value An illustration to be found the edition
OF the St Paul Recorder paper published written by
Negroes Quite naturally, it gives considerable editorial
space to the recent refusal of the D. A R permit the
use of its Constitution hall by Hazel Scott the Negro plan
st and the wife of Adam Powell New York first Negro
representative in Congress-
However, the Recorder, though deprecating the re-
buff itself takes marked issue with the voey of super
heated though not always relevant protests made by
Powell Much that he said probably justified but the
article in question entirely right in branding as extremely
bad taste his description of Mrs Truman as he last lady
of the land simply because she did react to the Incl
dent as he thought she should This piece of gratu-
tous rudeness
AS the writer of the editorial points out further there
SO much to be done toward assuring the basic political
and economic rights of people unjusty denied them that
is pity to waste emotional ammunition affairs of

taking postwar planning In their
own hands. Ostracized from men,
bership in a white CT taxicab com
bine which was itself attempting
to obtain franchise, the colored
veterans organized an association
for the purpose of establishing
their own taxi business. An indi-
cation of the prominence attached
to their efforts is the fact that the
Yellow Cab Co. of Philadelphia,
formerly one of the dyed-in-the-
wool "lily-whites" has employed
two Negroes as drivers. Whether
this is some Interior move design
ed to counter-attack the GIs' pro-
gram remains to be seen.
