STRAND

Another triumph must be chalked up to Danny Kaye. 'The Kid from Brooklyn" Samuel Goldwyn'S new Technicolor comedy for RKO- Radio release, which opened yester- day at the Strand Theatre, is riot of good fun and laughter, and af- lords the inimitable, versatile com- edy star his richest opportunity in highly spectacular and lavish production.
 As Burleigh Sullivan, an inof- fenSive (and inef1cienD milkman who wins worlds boxing cham pionship, Kaye pulls out his whole bag of tricks and runs the gamut from slapstick to the most delight full satire. Burleigh gets undeserved credit for knocking out the cham pion, Speed McFarlane, in @ street braWl. and is signed up by Gabby Sloan, Speeds manager, who plans knockouts and then matched him against Speed for the champion ship in which he will bet his whole bankroll on the champion. How Burleigh upsets the plan and wins the fight forms the hilarious cli- max. Nothing like it has ever been seen either inside the prize ring or out.
 Kaye has the rare knack of mak- ing the most preposterous happen ings seem convincing. He is, per- haps, at his best in his Pavlova number, truly one of the richest pieces of satire on the ballet ever seen. Virginia Mayo as Burleigh's s girl. Polly Pringle, sings and acts

Dark Brown MoIoSSes Nutritious
MIRIAM WEINRIB Waterbury Nutrition Council

Dark brown molasses not only gives sturdinesS to the gingerbread man, it helps those folks who get a share of 1t in their diet. Its sugar content supplies energy, and its flavor supplies variety to the diet And the dark molasses is also a good and an inexpensive source of iron.
 Both dark and light molasses are made from sugar cane and are by-products of sugar manufacture. The more sugar that is recovered from the cane, the darker the mo- lasses. That is, as more of the sugar is crystallized out, the non- sugar substances .. such as, iron and other minerals, coloring and flavoring ingredients become more concentrated. The light col ored molasses has higher sugar content, and because 1t has less Of non-sugar substances, is mllder Tn flavor.
 Housewives may not always find molasses in the grocery store, put when they do it's a good idea to take some food sweetening tips from grandmother. She used dark brown molasses over flapjackS at break fast. Her baked beans were en- riched with molasses. This sugar alternate may also be poured over apples for baking and over Winter souash, too. Then of course. there's the gingerbread man again.

POLL

A picture of tremendous visual and emotional appeal is being shown on the screen of the Loew-Poli Theatre. M-G-M's Technicolor pro- duction, Courage of Lassie," feat uring the remarkable canine star, Lassie, with Elizabeth Taylor, Tom Drake and Frank Morgan.
 Lassie, celebrated dog star, who almost runs away with the honors in Courage of Lassie" is a poig- nant story of the deep love of Kathie, young girl, for the collie she finds as pup and W hom she raises as a sheep dog. The dog, called Bill" ultimately finds him. self member of an Army canine corps, with Drake as his sergeant master. After an act of heroism in which "Bill' saves the lives of nine men on Attu, he goes berserk, and is shipped back to the States for medical attention. He escapes as he is being taken through the wooded countryside of his puppyhood and lives like 8 wild thing by killing sheep. His war record saves hin from being destroyed as a vicious killer and he is rehabilitated under the gentle care of Kathie with whom he is reunited.
 Miss Taylor has an even more appealing role than that which brought her high praise in "Na. tional Velvet" and proves hersel one of the most promising of tht younger actresses on the Metro lot Morgan gives his usual sureness O. portrayal to the role of the kindly sheep rancher, and young Drake i' a typical clean-cut Army type. 9th CTS in fine cast include Selens Royle, Harry Davenport mad alst 50 animal actors, all doing a su perb job.

Graceful Habits Are Style Test
By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

A good test of a woman's boise and style is the way she takes off her jacket and gloves and the way she carries her handbag.
 If you pooh-pooh these things as trifles, you should sit in at session where fashion models re- hearse these practiced arts. None is taken for granted.
 A jacket isn't removed until a model settles in her chair and puts down her bag. Then, she slips her jacket off one Shiulder at time, and either drops it behind her on the back of her chair or presents it to her hostess. But she hands 1t over as though it was prized possession, not as something to gather into 8 heap and try to dis own.
 Gloves? She removes these, one finger at a time, folds smoothly and either lays them carefully down or carries them with nocety.
 AS for the handbag, you rarely see fashion model posed without

The new rates will be ap- piled automatically so that it will not be necessary for the veterans to contact the VA office.
 The following rules were laid out bv the VA for veterans intending to build mousse to better insure satls- faction with the results:
 l. Before signing contract for construction of home find out all you can about the reliability of the builder.
 2. Ask the advice of the lend ing institution with which you are dealing as to the type of contract you should sign with the builder.
 3. Do not sign a building con- tract for the construction of a new home until the cost price has been definitely stated.
 4. Do not sign an acceptance of a new building until you have thoroughly inspected it after it is finished.
 5. Seek the advice of a person thoroughly familiar with building to ascertain that material and tim Der to be used are deschibed by specific measurements and types and that specific names of fixtures are given.
 6. Insist upon a clause in the contract which states that If for any reason a guaranteed loan can- not be obtained, you will get your deposit back from the builder.

 Today's hand helped Mrs. Young win the national Women's pair championship this year with Mrs. E. J. Seigman of New York. They received top score on the hand for playing it at six clubs.
 Mrs. Young sat North, and after her natural spade response to her partners club bid, South's bid ot two hearts was reversal and showed a very strong hand. Mrs. Youpg's three-spade bid was game demand and showed length in spades. South's four-club bid showed lack of interest in the spade suit.
 And now, although aces are shown rarely before a suit has been agreed upon, Mrs. Young felt that her partner would take her bid of four diamonds as nothing but an ace-showing bid, asking whether it was possible play this hand at SIX or seven.
 Therefore when South bid five diamonds, Mrs. Young decided to sign off at six clubs. Most Of the other pairs tried to play the hand at six spades or six no trump, which was defeated with 8 heart opening.
 You will observe that neither of these champions employed the lockwood ace-showing convention on this hand. South did not want to risk response showing one ace and have to wonder whether it was the ace of spades or diamonds North was not interested in the ace holding but realized the importance of letting her partner now that she | aaa of diamonds

 BACK ON THE AIR

BACK ON THE AIR
 Attention, listeners, please! I'll be back on the air Sept. 94, same time, same place And let's hope not the same joSae. Therell be a lot of changes in the show this fall but don't get too en- thusiastic .. . I'm still on it. I went to the trouble of taking personal survey to find out just what the public wants in the way of a radio program. A sort of Gallup poll I'd ring door bell and then gallop.
 But I'm happy to go back on the air again. It's a wonderful feeling to know you can reacl into so many Amerciarf homes with just the aid of 8 micro phone My brother, of course, doesn't need microphone. I've already held writers meeting and when I told the boys we were still on the air they put Inelr neaQS together ana KnOcKeQ wood. We're just one big happy family.
 With the sponsor as mother-in- law. We're a great team, the sponsor and My sound-man is back from Bikini and you can expect some hair-raising ex- plosions this Fall. That boy sure knows his stuff In fact, be- fore I hired him, he played sec- ond washboard for Spike Jones.
 It takes a lot of hard work to get our show on the air Some wise guy keeps pulling the plug out. No kidding, there's writing to be done, rehearsals to be played Censors to be shot. Those boys really give us trouble When they're through with 8 script there's nothing left but the pune tuation. But everything turns out well after I explain the joke to them and go up there and give them the punch!
