The Ohio daily-express. (Dayton, Ohio) 1946-1950, 1947-11-13

In it's theme one of the finest
motion pictures to come out of
Hollywood is currently showing at
n of the local theaters. We can
not describe it in the usual make
believe land language by poking
at you such terms as colossal, stu
pendous, etc., etc. We can only say
that it is n of the most realistic
demonstrations that has been seen
on the screen, and we definitely
recommend it to not only u
readers, but to the white popula-
ton of Dayton.
The picture is "Body and Soul"
1t was produced not by a major
studio, but by Enterprise Produc-
tions, a more courageous group of
men. What makes the picture so
outstanding is a theme which por-
trays a Jewish boxer who be-
friends a Negro he had defeated
for the championship. The Negro
role, played by Canada Lee who
speaks here Friday night with
Henry Wallace at the Biltmore,
is a complete departure from the
Hollywood stereotype of the Ne
gro. Imagine a Negro on the
screen clothed just like a white
man, with tie and coat and shoes
on, and without the laughter pro-
voking dialect and without the
servile, humble attitude, without

delineations of character that have
slandered the Negro people thru
the width and breath of this tumu-l
tous globe. That is what we get,
and Mr.. Lee, in his customary
manner, gives to the role a fired
earnestness, a grave and tragic
humanism. Even a reviewer in a
local journal was so enraptured
that she recognized the meritor-
ious portrayal by Lee and the
theme, too, and devoted most of
her review to these fine features.
In addition, the theme of the
film very acutely, if painfully
(although the picture climaxes
semi-happily) illustrates how pow
erty and religious persecution can
distort the morality and the values
by which men live. Some of the
fight sequences are the most real
istic ever to appear on the screen
also.
"Body and Soul" merits the
wholehearted support of all the
people. Go see it, and inform your
friends about it so that they too
will see it. Prove to the skeptics
that art, r art included, can
both teach and entertain.
And go see Canada Lee and
Henry Wallace this Friday at the
Biltmore. There is a unity among
p~rogressives that we all need to
share, and to which we all need
to contribute.

Telephone Company Plan
Nation Wide Program

With equipment already in op-

calls, directly and unassisted,

for the fall. Also cowl known as
the "Carthusian cowl" that falls

ton for this new trend. Taffeta

of her dusk-to-theater clothes. And
q new color makes its debut. 1t is
called Antwerp Blue" and it was
used by the painter, Brueghel. 1t is
an electric, deep, translucent blue.
Because space is so limited we'll
attempt to capsule the other collec-
tions seen.
Omar Kiam's collection for Ben
Reig was breathtaking. Bolero
dresses, full skirts, capes, and sleeve
less coats that slip over snug fitting
boleros predominated. Here the sill
houette is soft, not extreme, and not
revolutionary There is much soignee
drapery, especially front-to-back
drapery. In both suits and dresses
the same attention is paid to bodice
detail. The cape ensembles are mag
nificent. Big collars and bigger re-
vers on coats are to be seen IN his
well-tailored and beautifully de-
signed and executed collection.
Samuel Kass uses a key word
in his collection. It is proportion"
Be the dress slim or full 1t Is still
there! Length doesn't matter. He
uses proportion as gauge and the
results are pleasing.
His afternoon and dinner dresses
are the stuff that dreams are made
of. They are richly embroidered.
They are either the kind you'd want
your protrait painted in or the slinky
sophisticated sheath. These slinky
sheaths nearly all feature Sits. The
short dinner dress is something to
watch for in this coming seasons
style parade They've definitely
caught on. One especially pretty
one shown at the Kass collection
was of black taffeta with long
sleeved black bodice appliqued in
a taffeta leaf design. Underneath
black pantalettes! Wonder what the
designers would do without histori-
cal periods to fall back on for in
spiration?
Pauline Trigere introduced the
cloak last season. This season she
features 1t sometimes without
sleeves in a circular cape version.

and emerald greens are used some-
times alone and sometimes with

collection and low decolletages ap-
pear in the evening clothes. Also the
return of a favorite was spotted.
Hand loomed knit dresses. This sea-
son they will gleam with metallic
threads and sparkle with gold but

Madame Eta's collection celebrated
the return to gracious living with
clothes designed to accent the "com-
ing back" The collection was
divided into six parts. Her under
stated dresses rely on dramatic
lines and touches for their charm.
Soft grays, browns, and misty pur-
pies are in her collection. All of the
grace in a dress that depends en-
tirely on line and not on frill Is to
be seen in nearly every dress de-
signed by Eta. Great elegance and
formality are stressed throughout
her collection.
