"Union March," a band compost

ceremonies, was recently played in
New York by the U, S. Marine
Band under the direction of Cap

The march has not been publicly

at Roundstone Lake or Jackson
Falls: why the Martins even went
as far as New York City.
But when Cissy Cupper married
the young Carter boy, they al
lowed as how they were going to
spend their honeymoon right here.
"There's no place better than
our town." Cissy says. "And I'd
like to start married life at home,
with things Bud and / are used to-"
Makes sense, come to think Of it.

side the dimensions of the SCREEN
play.
There is nothing that any one can
do about this, not now at any rate
and "The Beginning or the End" is
not to be denied certain provoca-
tive quality in revealing this much.
The human imagination has been
so fred by the awakening OF the
atom that nothing touching upon
the subject can be without its ele-
ment of fascination. 1t is inescap-
ably in the air that the unleashed
atom is something the species must
live with, or die by, and not even its
reduction to Hollywood story for
mula can alter that.
'The Beginning or the End" is an
ambitious effort and quite impressive
in some phases of its technical dex-
terity. There are passages in which
audiences must find themselves sit
ting on the edge of their seats, held
spellbound by gadgets which init
mate a final, lethal explosion. In
evitably these passages lead back TO
a conventional cinema romance, the
inf1nitesimal chemistry OF two KIDS
in love hopelessly matched against
the demonic energy of the bomb.

Tyler as the young bride he always
leaves behind.
Their romance, however. reveals
less of the human drama behind the
bombs development than is caught
in the problems and attitudes of
the nonfictional characters.
President Roosevelt's worry over
spending two billion dollars for a
project that might fail; Gen. Groves
Illustration in his effort to get over
seas and into battle; the ebb and
flow of confidence on the part of
the frantically working scientists;
such things as these best cue the
public into the humanity dramatic
element of the bomb story.
The most popular thing about
Evening star., 1947-02-20

story. Boy-meets-girl never looked
like smaller stuff than when the
takes place in atomic bomb
laboratories, plants and target areas.
The factual looking package in
which the f1ctional elements of
1.-The Beginning or the End" are
wrapped is likely to leave audiences
more than ever bewildered by the
bomb. 1t is hard to tell where his
tory leaves of and Hollywood takes
over, or what compromise was worked
out between the Governments tech
nical advisers and the pictures pro-
ducers.
Between the narrative of bomb
and the reach for the
human drama behind it, it takes a
large and carefully assembled cast
of Metro players. Brian Donlevy,
Robert Walker, Audrey Totter,
Beverly Tyler and Tom Drake are
the topmost names on the list, but
the one who may be most talked
about is Godfrey Tearle who turns
out rather precise imitation of the
late President Roosevelt.
The imitation of the Aim covers
not merely a notable range of big
name Americans, but a lot of geog-
raphy. Audiences are given peek
after peek at the once most hush
hush corners, university labs, Oak
Ridge reared on the mud of Ten
nessee, the wastelands of the Ala
target area, and finally into
the inferno of Hiroshima. Even in
these are dramatic and
real looking and give, whatever else
they fail to disclose, a sense of the
tremendousness of the project.
Trailing along this exciting path
way, the unexciting love story is
that involving young Drake, a key
worker on the project, and Miss

One or the other clearly does no
belong there.

One or the other clearly does not
belong there.
"The Beginning or the End" is
basically a review OF the bombs
birth. The story written by Robert
Considine follows the bomb from
New York to Washington, past Oak
Ridge and Alamagordo, out to Sal
pan and thence to Hiroshima. On
this dramatic journey, it takes a
huge cast of expensive actors who
impersonate world figures, President
Roosevelt, DR.. Albert Einstein, DR..
Vannevar Bush, DR.. ]. Robert OPP
penheimer, Maj. Gen. Leslie r.
Groves, and a dozen others Of dra-
matte dimensions. These person and
place names give the film an authen-
tic flavor which cannot help being
arresting as a kind of summing-up
of what already has been revealed
in previous reports.
This, of course, will not hurt the
screenplay in the slightest at the
boxofice, an effect upon which
M-G-M has every right to count.
The cameras storytelling power
Is turned on full in "The Beginning
or the End" 1t achieves its major
effects under the direction of Nor
man Taurog in some strange, and
strangely revealing places, as if the
bomb were expressing its disdain
for movie-making rules.
1t is probable that audiences will
find the pictures high point early in
the narrative, in the scene which
sets up the first chain reaction in
a Chicago laboratory. This is un-
avoidably the moment of climax, a
reconfirmation of every ones worst
fears in terms of the most ominously
snarling set of gadgets ever as
sembled on the screen.
The films documentary technique
is at it's best when 1t deals with the
atom in such moments as this. It
looks contrastingly weak and badly
chosen as a method when it picks
up the detailed trivia of the love

BASKETBALL
THE last few weeks saw both of
st. Georges entries in C.Y.O. Bas-
ketball competition gain the city
championship playoffs. The Inter
mediates, who ended up in second
place in the Northeast division ran
into some tough opponents in the
double elimination round. In their
first game they met St. Stanislaus,
from the Soutnside, who had been
undefeated in Ia regular league
games. The Georges slowed St.
stan fast game to a standstill
triumphing 1913. In their second
game the boys met the st. Cyril's
outfit from the Westside. They
ran up lead that stretched to
eight points going into the last
quarter; then they nicely collapsed
SO that Cyril's could tie it up at
10 all. Charlie Machutas saved the
day when his long shot (as the
final whsle blew swished through
the meshes with the winning points
of the game. Final score 21--19
Their third opponent was st. Cole,
mans, another Westside outfit. The
boys got behind at the start anc
trailed all the way. Final score
25-15. With only one more los.
necessary for elimination the boy:
came back and eliminated St. Stan
islaus 27-21. These two losses t,
the Georges were the only one
st. STAINS had in 16 games this sea
son. In their fifth game the Inter
mediates met St. Coleman's for
second time. The nip and tucl
battle turned into heartbreaker
for St. George. A lay-up shot roll
ed off the rim as the final whistl
sounded and the boys lost: 2O-1s
The Intermediates closed the seasol
with 13 wins in II games. That

reprint from Latvian Bulletin)
WE, THE Baltic DIP students, ex-
press our deepest gratitude for the
care and kindness shown towards
us and for the opportunity given
US to continue our studies. We work
and study believing in better fu
ture for our Baltic peoples and in
the victory of humanity and justice
also in our home-countries
1t is with the most agonizing pain,
however, that we feel the injustice
done to our home-countries by the
brutal occupation both of Germany
and Of Soviet Union.
We, Estonian, Latvian and Lith-
uanian DIP students, as thinking
members of our respective nations
would like hereby to call the atten-
tion of the great freedom-loving
Western democracies to the tragic
fate of our nations:
1. Our countries, due to their
geographic situation, are placed be-
tween two millstones.
The same historical development
has mutually bound the Baltic ma
tions closely together.
Since the most ancient times our
nations have lived on the shores of
the Baltic Sea and, as it has been
proved by numerous archaeological
excavations and rich discov r e S,
have been able to develop a high
culture of their own.
Our peoples have had to resist,
both actively and passively, numer-
Gus attempts of invasion and occu-
patton by our mighty neighbors, es-
pecially by Russia from the East
and by Germany from the West.
Yet even during this difficult
period our nations have not lost
the characteristics of their own cul-
ture and their desire for liberty,
which led them, through many hard
and joint struggles and fighting and
with the generous support of Great
Britain and the USA, to political
independence in 1918 and to the re-
cognition of our free democratic re-
publics by the whole world.
II. During the following years
the economics, the political and the
cultural life passed through a per-
iod of free development, and this
period at the same time was proof
of the vitality of our countries and
our nations.
Agriculture in our countries was
rebuilt to such an extent that it
not only abundantly satisfied our
own needs, but we were also able
to export comparatively large guam
titles of it's produce abroad, espe-
cially to England, Scandinavia and
Central Europe Also various Bal
tic manufactured goods went to the
foreign markets During the last
years (1936-1939) several new large
hydro electric power stations were
built in all three Baltic countries,
thus supplying them with plenty OF
electric power for everyday life.
Progress in cultural life was in
deed great. Elementary education
was free and compulsory, so that in
the Baltic countries there was prac-
tically no illiteracy. The Secon-
Diary Schools and different Trade
Schools for vocational training were
numerous and we'll attended. The
same may be said of academic edu-
cation. There were numerous mu-
seums and establishments of arts.
Musical life was highly developed
with many thousands of singers and
hundreds of thousands of listeners

Seniors are still in there. In their

Appeal Of Baltic DIP Students
addressed to the Foreign Ministers of the
Great DemOcracies)

The whole process of progress
and construction in the new repub-
lies also stimulated the Baltic archi-
tects and engineers, as well as ar
lists of the applied arts. Baltic
scientists and artists were granted
scholarships abroad and there, too,
they were recognized as we'll quail
fled representatives of their special
tiles.
III. Despite the strictest neutra-
lity maintained by them in all mat
ters of foreign policy, in 1889 the
Baltic States without their know
ledge were divided up into spheres
of interest" between Soviet Union
and Germany.
From October 1889 to June II.
1910, the Soviet Union with military
force violated it's treaties with the
Baltic States destroyed their SOW
ereignty in accordance with the above
mentioned secret pact, and set up
it's own political regime in the Bal
tic States. By sham-elections that
were held contrary to the constitu-
| tion of these states, and by regu-
| lations and acts contrary to the
| laws of these countries, the aBltit
! States were Incorporated into Soviet
Union, as it had been arranged ir
Moscow already earlier. 1t is the
basest diplomatic lie of the Soviet
Union, when it speaks of so-callee
voluntary union with the Soviet I'm

Baltic States, the Soviet Union com
