The outstanding solo triumph
from the entertainment standpoint
OF the three days Of public perform
ing in hospitals, hotels, theaters and
arenas was that scored by Sergt.
Harvey Stone, the greatest ex-
ponent of CT humor the city has
laid eyes and ears on since This Is
the Army" played here. The sar-
donic, wearily fatalistic, nothing
can-hurt-me-aft attitude of
the GI was perfectly condensed into
Stones hilarious routine, and deliv-
cred with one of those rarely perfect
senses of timing. Covering every

the first time you heard it, 60 the
second.
Just which movie studio will spon-
sor Stones future is not clear.
All of them would welcome the op-
portunity. The one which finally
does so will have acquired one of the
finest authentic comedy talents de-
veloped by the war, before which
Stone was just minor act in minor

The trouble with the former is
that there are so few jokes that

Hollywood has paid its respects on
previous occasions to the eldest of
the armed services Of the United
States, but it is doubtful If ever be-
fore so light-heartedly as in "Tars
and Spars." The gay and diverting
musical, inspired by the United
States Coast Guards own counter
part of This Is the Army" which
also was called "Tars and Spars,"
arrived at the Metropolitan yester-
day with considerable attendant pre-
miere fanfare last night.
It has a script that is at least
fresh enough for a musical show,
it has brace of ace tunes ("I'm
Glad I Waited for You" and Love
Is Merry Go-Round') high light
ing a pleasant score and it is per-
formed by a youthfully enthusiastic
cast headed by Janet Blair, Alfred
Drake and Sid Caesar. In these
things and people "Tars and Spars"
may not have everything, but it does
have enough to guarantee a goodly
amount of entertainment.
A fair portion of the brightness
of the picture may be due to its
Coast Guard background. 1T is not
one Of those musicals wherein the
obviously untalented star of a show
comes down with cirrhosis of the
liver at 8:25 on opening night, there
by providing the opportunity of a
lifetime for her obviously talented
understudy in the chorus line. Here,
on the contrary, we have a young
seaman who prefers slowing away
in order to 60 to sea to singing in
"Tars and Spars" (the show within
the film called "Tars and Spars'D.
This account of the young mans
attempts to become a sea-going
rather than a shore-based sailor
and the romantic difficulties he en-
counters because pretty SPAR mis-
takes him first for a hero and Sec
ond for coward Is not overmuch,
to be sure. But 1t is a sufficient
framework for the support of some
lively Observation-Disclosures
which is about equally divided be-
tween the youthfully amorous and
the comic, both set to music, with
the comic more lively than the
amorols.
The Columbia musical owes much
to the presence Of Sid Caesar, a
comic who seems to be making his
film debut in this appearance. Among
Mr.. Caesars admirers you most Ger
tainly may count Director Alfred
Green, for he is worked overlong
on more than one occasion. Still,
he makes the most of almost every
opportunity and his imitation of a
trite aviation film provides one of
the funnier moments the screen
has had lately. Provided the proper
material by the scriptwriters, Mr..
Caesar should make many another
photoplay brighter in the future.
Alfred Drake, best known perhaps
for "Oklahomar and Janet Blair
play and sing the romantic leads
and do it quite pleasantly, too.
The "Tars and Spars" cast also
includes Marc Platt, the expert
dancer, whose presence graces sew
eral ballet sequences, which, Incl
dentally, are employed as skilfully
as the cinema has employed the
ballet. Altogether, in spite Of some

miniature musical, its strongest

he refused to believe Secretary
Byrnes was happy with the way
Senator Vandenberg, the Army

policy. Certainly Byrnes was not

authorize Admiral William F. Hal
