ATLANTIC CITY"
ENDING TONIGHT
AS CAPITOL Bill

Atlantic City, recognized for more
than two decades as Americas gay
est Fairgrounds, is glorified in song
and story at the Capitol Theatre
Republics most ostentatious pro-
duction, first of a spectacular list, is
called Atlantic City, and plays the
last two times tonight. 1t stars Con-
stance Moore and Brad Taylor.
Miss Moore and Paul Whiteman
demonstrate that the unforgettable
songs of an earlier generation are as
melodious today as ever They re-
ceive excellent aid in this demons
tration from Belle Baker, Louie
Armstrong and his band, Dorothy
cambridge and a chorus of bathing
beauties.
Charley Grapewin, featured as a
lovable veteran of big time vaude-
Vile, relives snatches from his own
colorful life and so likewise do AL
Shean, of the remembered Gala
CHER and Sean team, Gus Van, of
Van and Schenck, Buck and Bubbles,
Joe Frisco and other celebrities of
the theatre. Robert Castaine, the
Broadway dancer, makes his screen
debut impressively, and Jerry Col
onna, the irrepressible comedian of
radio, is even better in visual as
well as audible action.
The original story by Arthur Gaze
sar is a plausible narrative into
which the music and backstage
gaiety blend naturally. No one at
any time bursts into song just be-
cause tune seems to be the thing
for the musical. When they sing,
or play, there is a reason and with
all the comedy, there is lot of
common sense.

COVENTRY. England, Dec. "a
There's Christmas spirit in Coven-
try, even though Christmas decora-
tions can't be obtained, and there's
not much left to decorate.
Broadgate Square, heart of the
city's repaired and makeshift shop
ping district, boasts the main dec
Grafton, a 40-foot Christmas tree
with colored lights which spell out
Wishing All Merry Christmas"
The square mile of shops which
were either destroyed or damaged
by the blitz have been partially re-
stored. Some shops are operating
in old army huts and some are
makeshift shacks of corrugated
sheeting.
Many people have been able to
buy geese and ducks, and it's a pic
ture out OF Dickens these last few
days to see man hurrying home
with the head of goose wagging
out behind him.
There are no paper sacks, so the
approved method Is to lash the
birds feet together and carry the
string over the shoulder.
