Capitol to Drop
Stuqe Shows

Vaudeville will lose its last
stronghold in Washington
on October when the Capt.
tol Theater drops the stage
shows which have been a
feature of the house since
its opening in 1926.
Beginning on that date,
the dominant policy of the
theater will be motion pic
lures with occasional special
stage attractions as supple
mental features.
Abandonment Of vaude-
vile, a step taken reluctant
ly by the management of
the Capitol, is ascribed to
the cost of, and difficulty in
finding, a balanced program
of four routine acts.
1t is not the intention OF
the theater to close it's back
stage area entirely. AS
special top-flight acts of Suf-
f1cient box-office promise be-
come available, they will be
booked into the Capitol.

Desert Proves No Match

If you would like to discover

tween the polaroidS.
The Technicolor film, directed
by Ray Baker, is singularly free
of 3D. trickery. however. It has
remained for Mr.. Baker and his
cohorts to demonstrate with
Fox'S first Sd movie, in fact,
that the dimentional process can
be used for something other than
pelting the customers. Inferno"
would have been a solid melo-
drama lying fiat on the screen,
but the depth illusion is employed
to heighten dramatic effects.
1t accents the vastness of the
desert and makes more formid-
able the almost unassailable
nature Of rocky canyon walls.
Desert heat and cold and the
treacherous canyons are a vital
part Of the story. It's central
figure is a millionaire (Robert
Ryan who has been pretty hard
to get along with because of all
that money. He inherited it and
he's not sure how he would make
out without it. He breaks his
leg in a fall from a horse one
day and soon learns how he
would make out.

His wife (Rhonda Fleming)
and a young prospector (William
Lundigan set out for help, but
never return. They leave him
there on that canyon ledge to
bake to death by day and freeze

crate story of his disappearance

other man, maybe giving them

It is a flaw in Inferno, "
though a far from serious one,
that Director Baker documents
this battle between a mans in
genuity and the desert a shade
too painstakingly. He could have
made the point just as effec-
lively with less film footage
Still, he is a good man for the
sharp dramatic effect, using
contrasts between the aban-
doned mans plight and his MUIR

Undoubtedly there are few
people left In this world who
haven't tried lobster at one time
or another, but for those who
are In the mood for more. the
next Maine State Society lobster
dinner is just the place to go.
Maine certainly lived up to It's
reputation at its last dinner of
having mighty tasty Holsters.
Everyone was asked to bring his
own crowbar and there were IN
StructiorS contained In q leafiet
as to how to whack the lobster
open. Those instructions were
particularly handy to the lay
man for, opening q lobster is an
art which is quite intricate: how
ever, once this amazing feat is
mastered, the most delicious
meat known to man is waiting
as q reward.
This might begin to sound like
a Betty Crocker broadcast, but
with the lobster, there was q
salad. hot rolls, and for those
who had any room left. there
was Maine apple pie and cheese.
And, as though all of this wasn't
enough, the Society gave to
every individual a box contain
ing two Maine potatoes, q pack
age Of sardineS and q bag of
potato chips-plus plenty Of lit
erature on Maine.
Speaker of the House Joe Mar
tin was on hand as well as SEN
ator Payne and Maine Repre-
SentativeS. State Society presi-
dent DON Larrabee acted as en-
Gee. This project Of Names Is
one of the unique affairs
put on by State societies and
the way people turned out for
the occasion, it's good Tor many
years to come.
incidentally, the service at
the crowded festivity was beauti-
fully handled by the Interior De-
partment cafeteria staff. Every
thing was there when needed and
the whole program ran like clock
work. And, after viewing some
Of this Maine literature, it ap-
pears to be an ideal vacation
spot, but that angle will be left
to the travel editor. However,
this grand State has q dignity
and beauty to it that would be
difficult to outmatch, for many
parts Of It have been untouched
by commefcialism and the foot
prints of tourists.
But this fascination must end,
for there are other States to be
considered in this weeks round

OUer Quota

Montgomery County has gone
over the top, 104 percent, in its
campaign for funds for the Red
Cross. The quota assigned was
$60,800; the quota last year was
$53, ZOO.
The Rockville area responded to
the call with 178 percent. Mrs.
James Thackara was captain of
this area.
The Red Cross quota for Mont
gomery County was increased this
year, as it was all over the country,
due to the expanded activities for
the servicemen overseas, and for
the expanded blood program, in
collecting gamma globulin.
George M. Ferris, chairman of
the fund drive for Montgomery
County, said today:
Even though our quota has
been difficult to raise, it is graft
flying to know that the people of
Montgomery County have so gener-
ously responded to help with the
work of the American Red Cross.
| have been privileged to have had
such enthusiastic and untiring
workers. They have made it pos
sible for the fund drive to be a
success in the county"

Good balance is mental health"
so states flyer published by the

Health.
Mental Health Week runs from
May 8 to May 8 this year, and one
of the best ways we can assure
the promotion of better mental

may join. Active dues are $500
organizational dues, $500; and
contributory memberships are
$500 up.
Our local society sponsors and
manages the Mental Hygiene
Clinic in Rockville; provides a
mental health education program
including film series, open meet
ings, discussion programs, radio
programs, and a Speakers Bur-
eau; publishes a quarterly news
letter to keep it's membership in
formed about mental health activ-
tiles; and cooperates actively with
other county groups in promoting
resources for better mental health.
All of this takes lot of work.
If you can contribute by giving
time to tipping, telephoning, art
work, or mailing-or if you are
interested in working on one of
the committees which include edu-
cation, publicity, membership, and
legislation, you can do so by con-
