Both Finish
in First Ten

Ypsilanti High School tied for
Fourth and Roosevelt placed tenth
In field OF AZ Glass bed teams
in the annual River Rouge Invita-
tional track meet held at Yost
Field House IN Ann Arbor Satur-
day evening. Romulus copped .he
Bed title with 2ll5 points closely
followed by Allegan and Ecorse
who finished in a tie for second
place with 10 points apiece. Ypsi-
lan:l and Alma shared the fourth
spot with II and 81 points and
Roosevelt: held down tenth place
with II markers.
Lawrence Perry captured third
place in the 90 yard dash in a blan-
ket finish for the Braves only indi-
yidual points in the meet. There
were a total OF l07 entries in the
60 yard dash. The YHS Medley Re-
lay Team captured third place in
that event with Norman Walker,
Huel Washington, Franklin Ossen-
heimer, John Power and George
Johnson composing the team. In
the $50 yard relay Ypsilanti easily
walked off with their heat but as a
total OF eight heats we're run the
winners were judged on the basis
OF time and YHS took third in the
final compilation.
Keith Gundrum, RHS's star
timber topper, had the best qualify
ing time in the preliminaries OF the
high hurdles event with an ST
mark but in the finals he was nosed
out by Schultz OF Romulus who
raced to victory In both hurdle
events. In the lows Gundrum
placed fourth in another photo fin.
ish. The Rough Riders half-mile re-
lay squad finished strong to tie
Romulus in their heat Of the $50
and their time gave them a fourth
place tie with Romulus.
The meet was probably the larg-
est ever held in America with a to-
tai OF $50 entries and the $50 races
were run off with very little hitch.
Because OF the unqualified success
OF this and the previous meets the
sponsors have already agreed to
accept all entries for next year and
place absolutely no limitations on
entries for the l947 meet. The Glass
A winners were Saginaw Arthur
Hill and Saginaw was second with
Wyandotte third.

Army Casualty Bronch

The War Departments Casualty
Branch, which had nearly 2,400 en-
ployes during the war, has reverted
to its peacetime status as a part of
the personnel bureau in the adju-
tant generals department.
1t. Col. William D. Cartwright
OF Brooklyn, N. Y, a veteran of the
Pacific war, has been placed in
charge of the unit which now num-
bers only ITS employees.
The casualty branch, one Of the
largest under the adjutant general,
had expanded from a peacetime
force OF five persons. Since the end
of hostilities its work has consisted
chiefly Of clearing the status Of un-
identified dead and of those men
listed as missing in action" Only
a few such cases remain.

Arthur Blake, the impressionist, did
not arrive as scheduled for the new
show at the Romany Room, but ne
hardly was missed on opening night.
Eddie White, the new comedian,
took care of that. Mr. White Is an
able performer, schooled by many
years in vaudeville, during which ne
used to turn up at the Earle with
regularity. True, his current en-
deavolrs include some material not
designed for the kiddie trade, but
then night clubs do not open their
arms to the kiddie trade either, He
does seem to have fondness for
Jokes based on the fact that there
are two sexes, hardly new dis
covery, having been known to
number Of people for years. Come
to think of it, that's not joke,
lis it? =.
It Is when Mr.. White turns to
dialect stories that he really gets
going. People roar and hold their
sides and say with possibly pardon
able exaggeration that they haven't
heard anything SO funny In years.
AS a dialectician, Mr.. White at times
seems second only to the old master,
Lou Holtz. many of whose yarns he
tells. His story Of the three men
vying for the prize for stubbornness
rs one OF the funniest things we've
heard in years.
The new Romany Room show,
pending the arrival OF Mr.. Blake,
also has tap dancer named Susan
Dahl and harmonica player whose
name we didn't catch. He certainly
does lean on those screeching high
notes that scratch the spine. Benny
Rogers, the orchestra leader, who
acts as master Of ceremonies, leans
on some much more soothing notes
| In his song g-and-trumpet contribu-
ton.
Not having heard from Sacha
Lucas in some time. we went over
| to the location of his forthcoming
Moulin Rouge the other night to
see If he perhaps had been plastered
up by a decorator. He hadn't been,
but he was on hand inspecting
progress at 1870 L street., which, we
are happy to report, is being made.
He and his partners expect to have
the ground floor restaurant open
/ next week and the dine-and- dance
rendezvous in the basement open
very shortly thereafter.
Our inspection tour was inter-
rupted when Mr.. Lucas eye fell on
one of the murals on glass which
are part of the decoration. The
one that bothered him was a two
way affair between the lobby and
the main dining room. showing a
pair Of hands poised above a stylized
piano keyboard. Mr.. Lucas eyed 1t
for awhile like an art critic, then
called to Craig Halle, the artist.
"You don't play the piano, 90
your" said Sacha.
What do you mean, don't play
the piano?" asked the artist.
Whats wrong?"
THAT chord. It's terrible. It's
not even q chord"
you're looking at it from the
| wrong sidei I painted it from the
dining room side. That's the lett
hand, not the right. Mr.. Lucas
went around to inspect the art work
from its proper perspective, glaring
at 1t thoughtfully.

ern art, so you have right to use
modern music. But that chord

The Moulin Rouge, as luxuriously
and tastefully done as you could

been open sooner if it hadn't been
for the Winecoff Hotel fire. After

Radio Listeners
By Bryson Rosh

1t is quite likely that June 10,
1916 will be referred to in the
future histories of communication
as the date television came into
its own. There have been a num-
Der Of television fights broadcasts
and radio pick-ups of other notable
events, but the presentation of the
Louis Conn fight marked the matur-
ing, in the mind of the viewer, of 3
scientific promise long dreamed OF
and finally achieved.
In Washington nearly 800 guests
including top-f1ight Government
figures expressed wonderment and
complete satisfaction with what they
saw. At the Statler Hotel no one
to our knowledge expressed disap-
pointment with the spectacle. Me-
chanically the show was excellent.
The receivers, 81 of them, flashed
a good sized image with splendid
clarity. There was no difficulty In
following the action. No ghosts, lines
or blurs distorted the picture. The
comment, handled by Bob Stanton
was brilliantly done. Few words
were needed to accompany the pic
ture and Stanton selected those
few with extreme discretion and
humor. Ben Grauer. who did color
and description, was often lost in the
crowd with the result that the audi
ence in Washington actually got the
feeling Of the hub-hub and ex-
citement of ringside. To anonymous
production men must go credit for
excellent selection of the proper
picture to present at the proper
time.
Credit for this achievement that
has advanced television from the
laboratory and the homes and Of
fees of select few to mass ac-
ceptance must go in great measure
to RCA-NBC and its top executives
who had the vision to stick with
the television dream and the energy
to drive it to the elimination reached
on June 10. Specifically. Brig. Gen
