''LADY IN DARK"
 FEATURE SHOW
 AT 10TH CENTURY

1 AS a play it was the talk of Broad way for three years, and a like sen sation wherever it appeared around the country; as motion picture IL is said to surpass not only the stage version, but every film to come out of Hollywood in long time. It IS Moss Hart's Lady in the Dark !. Gertrude Lawrence was the stage Lady" and Ginger Rogers is the film Lady" in the Paramount Technicolor picturization which starts at midnight preview tonight at 12:l5 at the 20th Century Theatre, with Ray Midland, Warner Baxter and Jon Hall sharing star ring honors with her.
 Produced and directed by Mitchell Leisen, Lady in the Dark" has the same haunting Kurt Weill music contained in the play, plus new melody called Suddenly It's Spring" by Johnny Burke and James Van Heusen. In her role as Liza Elliott, repressed editor of swanky fashion magazine, Ginger Rogers not only has chance to do some excellent acting, but she also dances and sings "a phase of her talent that motion picture fans haven't had the oppor- tunity to enjoy for some time. Tine story concerns the efforts of Liza Elliott to locate the cause of her unhappiness. On the surface it would seem that she should be one of the happiest of women. She holds down an impressive position; she lis loved by fine man, played by Warner Baxter. But her nerves are on edge and she feels that she is losing her grip
 She finally consults psychiat- rist who proceeds to probe into her past and into her dreams, dreams which are interpreted on the screen in way that should, from all re- ports, have audiences ooh-ing and ah-ing with. delight.
 Miss Rogers romance with Ray Midland who has the role of ad- lvertising manager for the magazine is unfolded along with her dreams. | Jon Hall as the beautiful hunk of man" motion picture star whom Ginger almost marries, plays the role that gave Victor Mature his start.

Schools Viewed as Greatest
Public Project For Citizens

when the doors Of the public
schools of Ypsiland swing open
Wednesday, Sept. S. to admit-the
children OF this community the
city's greatest public project will
have begun operations for another
school year. This project repre-
sents the faith Of the city school
district in schools as a means OF
education and at the same time
presents to the children an op-
portunity for free, public, educa-
tion," Superintendent of Schools
E. H. Chapelle points out.
1.-THE fact that the Ypsilanu Pub
lie Schools have been In operation
for over a hundred years is no
guarantee that they will continue
to meet the needs of the first years
of peace. The academic traditions
of the high school must be enlarged
and broadened to furnish a type OF
education that will At the needs
OF the youth who does not intend
to go to college. Choices OF occu-
pations or professions to the youth
Of 1915 increase from day to day.
To meet the needs Of these youths
the school must be constantly on
the alert and be prepared to offer
courses OF study of changed en-
phasis on the older subjects.
Emphasis on Fundamentals
with this wider and richer curri-
culum demanded by the occupa-
tional choice OF peace time there
must still be emphasis on certain
basic fundamentals. Children must
still be able to read, to write, TO
cipher. and to know the history or
their country and its relations to
the other countries of the world.
Emphasis on these fundamentals
will continue in the public schools
by means OF teaching methods
which are adapted to the measured
needs OF the children.
"Chief OF these fundamentals
which are clearly part Of the equip
ment Of good citizen Is the matter
OF character and character train
ing. In the arts OF peace we feel
that children will need not only
training in personal qualities such

Students of
School Ages
About Same

According to the school census
records OF l945. there has been lit
tie change in the number of chill
dren in Ypsilanti as compared with
1914. Total figures for children up
to 10 years OF age are: 1915, 5,03l;
1914. 1884. Other figures are:
Children 5-l9 years old: l945,
3.549; 1914. 3,543. Children up to
five years: 1945, l.4S2; 1914, 1851.
OF the S,549 children ranging in
age from SIG. there are LIS boys
and IVA girls. Up to Ave years,
there are 759 boys and 723 girls.
Basing their figures on the school
census the state pays a specified
amount to the city for schools. This
amount usually varies between S11
and Sl4 per child between and
10 years OF age. Last year the
state paid Ypsilanti at the rate Of
$3.50 per child OF that age Al.

RESTORES VOTERS TO LISTS

ATLANTA, Oct. 9 (ANP) "A
ruling which will add between 200,-
900 and 100000 voters, thousands
IF them Negroes, to the lists of
Georgia was made by Atty. Gen.
Eugene Cook last week.
Cook ruled that Georgians whose
names were struck from the regis

taxes were automatically restored
to such lists when the poll tax was
'cpealed.
Thousands Of Negro men and
women, prevented from re-regis-
tration and voting by the accumu-
ative feature of the outlawed poll
ak, will now find their names on
the list of voters in the wake of the
attorney generals ruling.
The ruling stated: "Since the
oil tax is no longer prerequisite
for voting, a person who is other
wise qualified as an elector is en-
titled to have his Or her name plac-

development of the country and to
provide a more wholesome livinc

Mental disturbance, however, Is
,elt over Liberals own failure to dc
more for itself and the people who
make up the country. A commission
f Negro newspaper men returned
rom West Africa early in Febru
Try having spent approximately
-hree months visiting British and
French colonies and Liberia. They
were appalled, at the the things they
had observed in the one country
hat is supposed to be an example
IF Negro administration and self
government.
They found a country which is
about to celebrate 100 years of in
dependence in which about $4,000
Americo-Liberians dominate be-
tween million and million and
a half indigents. They found a
mall government clique apparent
y more concerned with remaining
on the government teat than in i'm
proving the welfare Of the people.
They noted that although three
representatives from the hinter-
land provinces had been seated in
the legislature, it was but a poor be-
ginning.
From reliable sources it is learn
ed that the Liberian budget for
1915, their best year for income in
history, was more than S2,000,000.
Out of this sum less than $4,000
was appropriated for education
and less than $4,000 for public
health and sanitation.
There is an awareness in official
quarters that American Negroes
hold a sentimental attachment for
nations with black ancestry.
