DR.. Prather noted, however,
that restaurant permits are

Another inspection of the
five restaurants along with
others in the Ocean City area

department takes any action,
he said. depends on what hap

object to the nomination Of the

Hoffman's Remarks
Senator Dalton. twice a de-
feated candidate for governor
of Virginia. was questioned by
Senator Eastland concerning
statements the committee
chairman attributed to u. s.
Judge Walter E. Hoffman Of
the Eastern Virginia District.
Senator Eastland asked SEN
ator Dalton If he believes a
Federal Judge should make a
statement such as the one he
attributed to Judge Hoffman,
that the question Of school in
tegration in Virginia will never
be resolved until there is a
change in political leadership.
Saying Judge Hoffman is a
friend. Senator Dalton said he
did not want to criticize a
friend or a judge. He added.
however, he believes a Judge

and impartially. He recalled
that Judge Hoffman was his
running mate for attorney

The principal male singer in

Russell, whose voice is agree
able enough, though often a

But Mr.. Russell does all right

the staging Of the production

memory-evoking music in this
show. from assorted Ziegfeld
revues of the past, but too
many musical numbers drag
their feet in choreography that
is somewhat less than brilliant.

orous revival OF some Of the
ditties OF the '20s-such old
gems as Keep Your Skirts

and "Show Me the Way to Go

that there's still magic in the

add some others of their own

clue to what's wrong with this
production. Any man who would
belabor an audience with this
chestnut is not the one with
imagination and taste to put
together a collection OF high
lights from past "Ziegfeld
Follies."
Another fault is a more basic
one. Those happily remembered
shows that Flo ziegeld staged
owed a considerable amount of
their appeal to the dazzling
spectacle of the production
numbers. Dazzling spectacle
you do no get in tent-covered

is not quite enough.
