just sit down and say, well, let's
ration shoes today" 1t wasn't that
simple.
Statistics had to be run down and
analysed. Production figures were
interpreted. Possible effects of the
plan were debated.
Mr.. French gave a couple of il
Illustrations of what OPA had up its
sleeve.
Maybe you didn't like the A gaso-
line ration card. You might have
had another one, for milk. One plan
called for A, B and G milk cards
One for adults, one for growing chill

mothers and persons on special
diets.

Remember those unused stamps
with pictures of tanks, guns and

OPA figured clothes rationing was
so likely it had better toss in some
spare stamps, just in case.

it. His one comment as we rode
along was, Regardless of what this
horse does, 1 canter.'"
The other story is better, but you
will have to ask Garlic to tell you
some day when you meet him.
The headliner of the Capitol S
stage show this week is another
actor who thinks there is such a
thing as making too many pictures
in given period. He thinks his
own limit should be three, a limit
dictated partially by the circum-
stance that he is otherwise busy.
AS one of the California Carrillos,
a sort of heir to the southern part
of the State, he not only fits into
pictures dealing with that area as
an actor. but also as writer. The
relationship between California his
tory and family history is close
enough that he can act as a part
time script writer or at least as a
technical adviser whenever he is
working on such picture.
A great many actors are not in
tereSted in writing-to their grave
disadvantage-but Garlic is an
exception.
He is even ready to comment
critically that what Hollywood needs
is the kind of writer who has mas
tered the art of simple narration of
a simple plot He thinks that over
looking that fundamental is one of
the things most frequently at fault
with the stories the movies try to
tell. He has hopes that something
will be done about it.
1t is one of the other things that
puts him on your side.
4 X X
Garlic readily confesSes that for
all his California roots, he likes to
toy with the idea of coming to
Broadway.
Even now, he has a part of one
brain lobe on musical about Cali
fornia which has attracted the at
tention of the Shuberts. GARLIC
has feeling that it might be
natural" for him. There are draw
backs, however.
One of the drawbacks is that he
would have fixed notions on what
it should be which might clash with
the fixed notions of others who
might be concerned with the project.
And. besides, there is that 5000
acre farm, the movies. and that
State park commission job.

Service Film
Pictures War
In Pacific

Lit. Col. Bertram Kalisch, who had
lot to do with the making of "Ap-
pointment in Tokyo" for the Army
pictorial service, thinks the picture
will be just the explanation many
people have wanted of tactics in the
Pacific war.
THE newsreels, those of both
civilian and service cameramen,
have done a wonderful job during
the war" he was saying the other
afternoon after radio interview
and before screening of the film,
for which he came down from New
York. They have done such a
thorough job, in fact, that our
(Army pictorial Service) casualties
were much higher than those of
many other branches of the service.
People may not have realized it at
first, but when they saw a news
reel shot of American infantrymen
or Marines charging up to beach
it was taken by a cameraman who
had to land with the first wave,
then turn his back to the enemy to
make his pictures. That sort Of
thing isn't too healthy, but our boys
got some wonderful combat shots.
Good as they have been, how
ever, these newsreel clips have not
been able to give a comprehensive
overall picture of the war in the
Pacific. What we have tried to do
in Appointment in Tokyo is give a
complete picture of the Pacific war
to those who have had brothers,
husbands, sons and sweethearts out
there. We've tried to show what
they had to put up with-the heat,
the mud, etc.-as well as the fight
ing.
There also have been many
things that could not be told by the
newsreels because they involved
strategy. But now We can answer
some of the questions people have
had in their minds about tactics
by showing why this or that island
had to be taken and by showing why
the Army, the Navy and the Ma
rines played the different parts they
did.
I'VE were able to get complete
picture by using not only Army
films, but those taken by Navy and
Air Force cameramep>-as we'll"

This week coming up bids fair to
towns amateur theater season, with
five productions of as many drama
groups due for unwilling. The fare
runs something Of gamut from a
Christmas play to Moliere to Sidney
Howard, and those involved range
from George Washington Univer-
sity's Cue N Curtain Players to q
group of military and civilian per-
sonnet at Fort Myer. Incidentally
we seem to remember less cute
time when Cue m Curtain was just
plain Cue and Curtain, but that is
beside the point, and we might just
as well get on with some further in
formation about these coming at
fractions.
Mr. Towards THE Silver Cord
is the George Washington groups
selection for its second play of the
season and it will be presented next
Friday and Saturday nights at Lis
ner Auditorium. Cay Knockey will
play the domineering mother of the
drama, with John Mcclure and Dick
Lathrop cast as her two sons Mimi
Branson, Cue m Curtain president,
and Margaret Fry are others In the
cast The Howard drama is being
directed by Floyd L. Sparks and
Florence Newcomb.
The Moliere work on the weeks
schedule is modern adaptation of
THE Imaginary Invalid" which will
be presented Thursday, Friday and
Saturday nights at the North Post
Theater at Fort Myer. In addition
to the original plot and dialogue of
the 18th Century French comedy,
this new version will have dances,

sic played by the United States

him. One of the jobs is that of op-
Grating a 5,000-acre farm. The
other finds him member of State
commission whose duty it Is to make
the California coast line more beau
tlful. California has a long coast
line as you can see on the map.
One could get the impression that
the actor is more proud of his farm
Ing than of any other of his activi-
ties. He is farmer without ever
having been related to the farm
problem. He makes his farm pay
even though he has to resort to &c

his California neighbors are con-
cerned. He grows corn, for in

Hotel Guests
Boost Fund
orAmputee

M.Sgt. Fred Hensel, the ma
tons first war casualty to lose
Goth arms and legs, whose con-
valescence at Percy Jones Hos
pital, Battle Creek has attracted
statewide attention, today is
$500 closer 10 acquiring the
chicken farm his heart desires,
due to the generosity of guests
at the Colonial Hotel, Mount
Clemens.
In a spirited drive conducted
following a lobby entertainment
Sunday evening, hotel owner
Max Elkin announced h
guests had contributed $500 to-
wards Hensels chicken farm
and $500 towards the fund for
welfare at Selfridge Field, ad-
ministrated by Harry Malbin's
Jewish Welfare Board.
Co-chairmen of the h ote
event were Edward Ruskin, of
Jersey City, and Mrs. Elsie Bel
sky, of Springfield, Mass, guests
at the Colonial. A Miami Beach
opera singer, formerly on one of
Elkin's hotel entertainment COM
mittees, offered vocal selections
during the affair.
Elkin said the $500 check has
been sent to a Detroit newspaper
which has sponsored a fund to
provide Hensel with chicken
farm-although the limbless vet
eran himself has indicated that
his expressed desire for such a
future was not intended to seek
either sympathy or financial aid.
The Jewish Welfare Fund,
which was also helped, provides
weekly feast for Selfridge
Field men an dvarious gifts and
entertainment.
