tremendous applause for her re-

Lords Prayer" accompanied by
her mother at the piano. You

the audience was so deeply
moved at the end, a marked per-

respond in thunderous ovation,

daughter act one of the best on
the program. There really were
SO many good performers there

School youngsters and their
well drilled dance was bona fide

and perhaps even more rhythm
than they have in County Cork
or Dublin. Some amateurs per-
formed without any musical ac-
compartment and yet they were
like jewels in the rough whose
true brilliance will be seen later
for they carried true-tone,
rhythm, and class that won ap-
plause. Perhaps the young Girl

Germans Sought by
Czechs for Trial
BY the Asseeiassd Press

BERLIN, Mar. 5.-The Amer
ican Military Government an
nounced today that it has sus-
pended the extradition of Ger
mans wanted by Czechoslovakia
for trial on war crimes charges.
AMG said the extraditions were
stopped because the Czechs twice
violated signed agreements by de-
livering acquitted or untried persons
to the Russians.
In the case Of an individual ex-
tradited In July, 1916, AMG said,
a. German was acquitted by the
Czechs, but when the Americans
asked for him she was not returned
but delivered to Soviet authorities
on November 20, 1S47."
In a second case, German was
held more than year without trial,
AMG said. When the Americans
asked his return they were told he
also had been turned over to the
Russians. The Germans involved
were not named.
The order said there would be no
more extraditions to Czechoslovakia
until the two individuals are re-
turned or until full and satisfac-
tory explanation is given OF the
reasons for which they were turned
over to Soviet authorities"

Peoples Of the Pacific, says Act
ress Donna L. Murphy, have de-
veloped an enthusiastic taste for
American comedy, music and
vaudeville from the Hollywood pic
lures they have seen.
She learned this while touring
with armed froces shows during the
war. and now she plans to give
them Live entertainment Of the
same type.
Miss Murphy, from Burlington
Iowa, has formed Far Eastern En-
tertainment Enterprises, Inc. In
Maniia, p. l., with another middle
western girl, Dolores M. Gregory OF
St. Louis, Md, also a former armed
forces performer.
Their shows won't be entirely
American, in personnel or material
however. Part OF the troupe will
be Fflipinos. Miss Murphy came to
Hollywood to recruit American
talent while Miss Gregory assem-
bles the native members Of the
company in Manila.
Such enterprises in the Far East
have been only moderately sue
cessful, at best, in the past be-
cause companies depended wholly

formers, and acts" said Miss
Murphy. We'll give them both
