Hoy many of you have seen "The Picture of Dorian Gray" the most unusual film of the year? This is your last opportunity to see it, be- cause today is the last time it is playing at the Loew-Poli theater. This production based on Oscar Wilde'S absinthe-tinted drama is causing a great deal of talk. It is so superbly produced, so different in theme from conventional fare. We think you ought to see Dorian.
 This screen masterpiece features a new screen personality, Hurd Hat field, as Dorian, and George San ders, Donna Reed and Angela Lans- bury in other important roles.
 The second attraction on this program is Sleeping in Society" with Edward Everett Horton and Gladys George.
 Starting Wednesday is the hilari- oua comedy Without Love-. Spen- Ger Tracy and Katharine Hepburn, who scored impressive box office successes in "Women of the Year" and Keeper of the Flame, are to- gether again on the screen for the third time in this new film.
 Without Love" is an adaptation of the Broadway stage hit of the same name by Philip Barry, one of Americas top dramatists. Miss Hepburn played the faminine lead on the New York stager, the she also has in the motion picture. This mirth-provoking movie is a story of two romance-scorning individualists who meet in wartime Washington, where both are engaged in scientific work related to the war effort. What happens when they agree to mar iage-without-love pact is said to make one of the most exciting and amusing film narratives of the sea- son.
 The supporting cast of the new photoplay is a strong one, featur- ing such names as Lucille Ball, Keenan Wynn, in his most impor- tant part to date Patricia Morrison, Carl Esmond and Felix Bressart.
 It is the first time since Woman of the Year" that Miss Hepburn earns the chance to compete with the "best-dressed ladies of the screen" Irene has designed con- plete wardrobe for the actress to don as Spencer Tracy's co-star in this romantic tale. According to the designer, the clothes forecast postwar fashions for feminine America.
 Keenan Wynn, son of the famous comedian Ed Wynn, landed the biggest role of his career when he was assigned an important part in the picture.

setup in Naples, Italy, as one of

SEGREGATION AFFECTS
RED CROSS WORKERS
By Sgt. Frank D. Golden

NAPLES, Italy, Aug. 21 (ANP)
The American Red Cross has done
a great job for the soldiers, as a
whole, on this side of the Atlantic.
1t has served as welcoming parties
in every seaport city in Africa and
in Europe, where American soldiers
have landed, and host to thousands
of GIs who frequent its clubs while
on leave. These clubs are equipped
with all kinds of literature pertain
ing to the countries with sightsee-
ing tours to historical places of in
terest. In this way, the Red Cross
was able to introduce the men of
the armed forces to the customs,
cultured, and religions of peoples
whose backgrounds differ greatly
from our own.
There are many things which
have happened to the colored SOL
diers, however through the Red
Cross that have caused them to
loose sight of the Four Freedoms.
This great institution has grown
in stature and respect for it's
achievements in this war But in
the same proportion, it has grown
as a color discrimination. It's prac-
tice of discrimination violates the
principles for which men are fight
ing and dying, the freedom of
equality. n
Wherever | have gone during the
past two and a half years overseas,
in Africa and Europe, | have found
the same tragic formula of seq
regated policy. The separate staff
ing system of colored and white
personnel. This system has been
carefully planned by high Red
Cross officials. This scheme follows
the usual army pattern of segrega-
ton. This is done by appointing a
colored field director with colored
staff to supervise clubs for colored
soldiers. The total results of this
system are the inferior positions
which the clubs hold, and the hu-
initiation which the colored soldiers
