Atom Bomb
 EValuatiOn Now Awaited

ABOARD USS APPALACHIAN otF BIKlNI - Firefighting crews worked into the second day in atom blasted Bikini lagoon abusing lin- gering pockets of flame through the target fleet-five of whose 73 yes- sels already had been sunk.
 That the second test, tentatively scheduled within three or four weeks, may take a far greater toll waa indicated in an interview with Navy Secretary Forrestal radioed from the flagship Mt. Mckinley. He expressed surprise at the "rrelative- ly untmportant damage inflicted up- on the heavier ships by Mondays air drop, but noted that such ships are difficult to sink unless they sus- tain underwater damage"
 In the Monday A-bomb drop great damage was wrought to ships an- chored in the lagoon but the blast did not sink a capital ship, even though they were directly under the explosion.
 Admiral W. H. P. Blandy declin- ed at a press conference to draw any conclusions from the test.
 That's not our job," he said. "We put facts before the evalua- tion board of the joint chiefs of staff and the evaluation commission of the President and they draw con- clusions."
 Equal To Nagasaki
 Scientists aboard the Admiral's flagship said they thought Mon days bomb waa about equal in nuc- lear efficiency to the one used at Nagasaki.
 A recapitulation of the bombs destructive power showed two at tack transports, the Carlisle and the Gillian, sunk. A destroyer was 30 badly damaged 1t was expected to sink. The cruiser Sakawa was ripped open at one end.

Exciting Drama Is
Coming To Henry's
"Tangier," Starring M a ri a
Montez and Robert Paige,
Opens On Monday.

"Tangier," UniversaPs high-pow-
cred Melodrama about international
underworld dealings in the North
African port of Tangier during the
latter part of the war, comes Mon
day to Henry's Theatre to show
Maria Montez in the first modern
role of her career.
Co-starred with Robert Paige and
Sabu, Miss Montez, portraying a
Spanish girl from Madrid who pur-
sues her hated enemy to the North
African International Zone, gets her
first chance to handle a seriously
dramatic role.
In the plot Maria becomes a night
club dancer in a Tangier hotel, and
there she befriends Robert Paige,
who portrays a discredited Ameri-
can newspaper reporter also looking
for the same man for a news story
that is expected to blow the interna-
tional scene wide open.
The two pool their efforts to find
their prey-not only tracking down
their enemy but also finding ro-
nance. Both in the search and in
the romance, they are ably assisted
by Sabu, who returned to Universal
from the Air Corps in time for his
role in "Tangier."
Other members of the excellent
cast are Preston Foster, Louise ALL
britton, Kent Taylor and j. Edward
Bromberg.
"Tangier" is said to be a radical
change from the legendary princess
roles that Maria has heretofore play
ed, giving her a chance at an action
packed film with a modern setting.

the wood in the shed. This involved
a lot of toting and the farmer fig
ured the job would keep the man
busy but by noon it was done.
The third day the farmer, think
ing he'd give he man a light job
told him to sort out the potatoes in
the bin. ''Put the good ones in one
pile, the doubtful in another, and
throw out the rotten Ones" said the
farmer. An hour or so later he
went back to see how the job was
coming and found the hired man all
upset with virtually nothing done.

ton.
