MEDAL TOURNEY

The Miami Trotters reiterated
their claim on the local basket

NEEDED-MoRE THAN A CANDIDATE


NEEDED-MORE THAN CANDIDATE
THE NOMINATION of General Of the Army Dwight
David Eisenhower as the Republican standard bearer brought
quick comments from Democrats over the country. Taken
together these comments have the central theme that even
though the General (now Mr.. Eisenhower has shown certain
liberal tendencies, the party which he leads is the same old,
conservative, reactionary party which, in the selection Of this
candidate is seeking to parade itself in new garb.
WHAT Republican party has done ii Chicago is
to pick the candidate most likely to win because Of uemen-
dous popular personal appeal. II will be remembered that
much Of his campaign was conducted by the younger element
in the party, many without much experience, yet with the
feeling that if the party was not to suffer its sixth consecutive
defeat then its leader would have to be a man who could.
appeal to the younger element all over the country.
BUT Mr.. EISENHOWERS task is just beginning. His
tremendous appeal will have to be backed up with much real
hard, down-to-earth fight right on the grass roots level ltmust
not lose sight Of the fact that he Republican party has not
come forward with any constructive program designed to i'm
prove either the economic or the social life Of the nation. j
is noted for its reactionary tendency, its isolaionism and the
philosophy that the government in Washington is not to be
concerned with more than the most elemental administration
Of certain phases which the states themselves cannot possibly

State Seeking Increased Prices

More Than Twenty Restaurants IN
State Seeking Increased Prices
Restaurant prices and OPS staff
cuts were top news during the last
week-so far as the Delaware dis
trict Office of Price Sterilization is
concerned. Willard D. Boyce, state
OPS director, said that more than
20 restaurants throughout the state
are seeking increased prices-and
that Is applications for menu price
adjustments have been granted in
the past three months. He added
that only increased food costs dur
ing the four-month period prior to
April may be reflected in any adj
justments. and that approval of
OPS must be given in all cases. He
also pointed out that the applica-
tions received represent only a
small percentage of the states
more than 1000 restaurants.
The news about OPS staff cuts
in Delaware was the so percent re-
duction in personnel due to de-
crease in appropriation for the
federal price agency. Mr.. Boyce,
said, however, that the agency still
is very much in operation, but he
explained that the half-staff that
will continue to administer and en-
force price controls in the three
counties will have a burden that
can be borne only by the continued
cooperation of Delawareans in
careful use of their money in COM
batting imitation" Mr.. Boyce also
urged that the consuming public
cooperate with the reduced en-
forcement branch by reporting any
suspected overcharge to the OPS.

"A Tree Grows in BROOKLYN
Has Music, Joan B|onde|I
By Horry Macarthur

The man who first thought Of
doing the musical Oklahoma! !"
has something to answer for. He
started a whole new chain Of
thought in the theater. It sud-
denly was accepted that a musical
comedy could be about something
and might be adapted from almost
anything. maybe even Crime and
Punishment" say. AS an example
of the lengths to which this can
lead, the Shubert now has on
display "A Tree Grows in Brook
lyn," the musical adapted from
Betty Smiths highly popular
novel.
This selfsame musical play, as
a matter of fact. was highly popu-
lar for a year or so on Broadway.
This makes it likely that any
blame which might be attached to
the present proceedings is due
some one other than the man who
started this trend for musical
comedies which are not neces-
sarily comedies. One esteemed
New York critic did. after all, call
this a "darlin' show.
He ought to see his darlin' now.
The cast, headed by Joan Blon-
dell and Robert Shackleton, does
not do much to hide any deficien-
cies in the musical Tree" which
may have gone unnoticed in the
first happy flush of it's youth. The

THE CAST,

book by Miss Smith and George
Abbott now seems to vacillate
Iclumsily from Aunt Cissy and
comedy to Katie Nolan and sor-
row and back again.
The Arthur Schwartz score,
with some exceptions, does not
sound especially inspired. The
same, also with some exceptions,
must be said of Dorothy Fields
lyrics. A man is not accustomed
to saying this about Mr..
Schwartz's scores or Miss Fields
lyrics. but there's nothing to do
when the evidence is right there
in your ears. The fact that, apart
from Love Is the Reason" these
are unfamiliar tunes, does seem
to indicate that this has not been
considered music that will live by
the people who try to kill songs
of quickly by radio repetition.
It may be, too, that in New York
it is easier to glow sentimentally
over "reminiscences of the Brook
lyn of so years ago. In the Shu-
bert Theater in Washington last
night it seemed awfully dull to be
starting a musical show with a
long song g-and-d dance number re-
lating how all the neighbors bail
their belongings out of the corner

day. The show is we'll into its
third scene and has produced
Aunt Clssy before it shows any

fltfully from time to time and
occasionally rises up, but it never
completely throws off its torpor.

sung to his daughter, Francie.
In turning the novel into a
musical play, the authors engi-
neered a shift of emphasis to-
ward the comedy revolving about
the happily loose-living Aunt
Cissy. Joan Blondells Dusty, lusty
portrait of this lass, who calls
|her husbands" Harry out of es-
TEEN for the first one, has its
comic moments, too. John Viv-
