U. 5. Flyers Shifted
From Southeast Asia

From Yesterdays Last Edition.
By the Associated Press.
CALCUTTA, India, May 31.-All
American aerial units have been
withdrawn from the Eastern All
Command in Southeast Asia and
Maj. Gen. George E. Stratemeyer
has relinquished command of the
organization which he had headed
since 1t was formed December
Is, 1943.
The new destination of the Amer
lean elements was not announced
but Air Marshal Sir Keith Park said
in special order of the day that
they we're being withdrawn ito fight
the Japs in another theater." Sir
Keith is commander in chief of air
forces in Southeast Asia.
The integrated Raj and American
Air Forces of the Eastern Air Com
mand spearheaded the way for AL
lied ground forces in Burma. Gen.
Stratemeyer, as the commander,
evolved new methods of warfare in
which the ground forces deliberately
cut loose from their overland supply
lines and depended on air cargo al
most entirely.

La Boheme' Scores
For San CarIoans
BY ELENA DE SAYN.

La Boheme," the celebrated
sketch of student life in the Latin
Quarter of Paris in the COS, so
eloquently told in music by Puccinl
proved another high light in the
repertoire of the San Carlo Opera
last night in the National Theater
The company scored again in its
| lifelike portrayal of the types, who
in the pursuit of the arts braved
poverty and hunger, and of the
times when romanticism was still
alive and Paris famous night life
was loved for its glitter.
In the opening scene, where a
bright fire aglow in the fireplace
forms the only genial spot in the
barren garret, Giulio Carl, as the
poet Rudolfo, Mario Vallo as Mar
cello, Harold Kravitt as the philoso-
pher, Colline and Stephen Balla-
rini as Shaunard, the musician,
created a vivid picture of student
life and its privations by the nat
uralness of their acting. The beau
tiful tenor voice of Mr.. Carl was
an effective medium for the famous
aria "Che gelida MAMMA" which
he sang with tenderness and lovely
tone quality.
Mary Henderson as Mimi scored
another success as interpreter OF
this role. Her voice, of pure and
ringing timbre, carried special ap-
peal in the mi chiamano mimi"
aria, in which the simple and un-
assuming character of the heroine
was underscored. The artists were
rewarded with effusive applause
after the scene was brought to a
close by the clear high c sung in
unison off stage.
Very colorful as to scenic effect
and mise en- scene was the Cafe
Momus" act, in which the daring
quartet of the men, in company
with Mimi, indulge in an epicurean
dinner without prospects for foot
ing the bill. This is where Musette
makes her first appearance and
captures the attention of the au-
dience by her caprice. Clelia Ven-
ditti, attired in becoming green
costume, stole the scene by her
vivacity and temperamental be-
havior.
Pathos and dramatic fervor, the
keynote of the next scene, called
once more upon the vocal powers
and the ability of Miss Henderson
and Mr.. Carl, who carried off the
honors by superb individual work
and in ensemble. Jack Morgan as
Benoit, the landlord, and Fausto
Bozza as Alcindoro, the follower of
Musette, contributed to the merry
and humorous pace of their re-
spective scenes. Nicholas Rescigno
the conductor, showed again his
musicianship by molding the en-
semble into a new whole, in keeping
with Puccinis style,

Personally we find trying to wash
dishes with a dish mop Is more
trouble than using just a cloth.
However, when it comes to washing
tall glasses, mason jars, deep vases
and other difficult-to-clean shapes,
give us long g-handled mop. There's
a new one on the market made OF
cellulose sponge. The sponge is very
porous and absorbs good supply Of
rich suds. The 7-inch wooden ham
die is painted gay red and has a
hole at the top for hanging.
Those odds and ends of soap bars
are maddening to use, but because
of the conservation program and
the fact soap is often hard to OBJ
tain, we must make use of every
last bit. A soap saver" would un-
doubtedly help great deal. There
is one made of surplus metal ma
terial that should be just what We
need Not only does it utilize the
bits of cake soap, but economies in
the use of chips and fakes by saw
ing the Jelly" that SO often goes
down the drain.
You fill this cylinder type of con-
tainer by removing the base. The
perforations are so small that only
the soapy water that makes "suds'
can get through.

Cleaning Tips
BY Dorothy Bihlman

Fortunately there has come to
Mrs. Cleanliness rescue another
universal household cleaner, which
is so potent and at the same time
so harmless and easy to use that
the housewife can cope with the
soil situation in spite of all difficult
ties. According to the manufacturer
this product has proved its eff
cheney in its service record for in
duStry. For it was used as clean
ing agent and "degreaser" of ma
chinery and metal parts in many
war plants where the fact that it
is noninflammable Is especially ap-
preciated. 1t has also been used in
factories and institutions as floor
cleaner, for not only did it cut the
time and labor but helped to elm
mate accidents caused by slipping.
There is no room in the house or
apartment where the services of this
cleaner cannot be utilized. Every
thing from greasy work Clothes to
delicate fabrics can be cleanSed
thoroughly without injury. It's sell
dom one finds a cleaner that can
be used for the above purpose and
is also effective for upholstered fur
niture, rugs, broiler trays, dishes
and cooking utensils.
1t is odorless, comes in liquid
form available in gallons. quarts
and pints. Also in concentrated
form for solution in hot or cold
water to the strength required for
specific tasks Claimed 10 be harm
less to the hands, as it contains
no harsh caustics, the product makes
an excellent hand soap, it is also
said to be nontoxic, noninflammable
and contains no abrasive material,
acids or alkalies. What more could
any one ask?

AS April ushers out the oyster
season, devotees of the succulent
bivalye feel they must have one last
fling at their favorite food before
it disappears for the non-R months.
Our masculine host of the week
arranged a dinner which featured
oysters as the main course. He had
borrowed the recipe from an aunt
who has lived in New Orleans for
years and has become connoisseur
of Creole cookery-which turns out
oysters at their best.
Dinner started off with halved
strawberries, doused with a chilled
dry white wine and sprinkled with
finely chopped mint. Then came the
broiled oysters with sauce Espag-
