bends notes like Ella Fitz-

who's Afraid of the Big

Lena Horne and she belts like
Judy Garland.
She's also kookier than
Shirley MacLaine.
And Barbra Streisand is
only 81 years old. One Of the
biggest movie turnouts in
months greeted her Holly
wood debut at the Cocoanut
Grove. She's the new pet Of
the movie crowd.
AS she looked over her
audience. which included
everyone from Sue Lolita
Lyon TO Henry Fonda, she
said:
I'm the kind OF nut who
reads movie magazines
and here you all are alive.
II I had known you we're
coming, I would have had by

She's no beauty-until she
sings-and then she gets
prettier.

her at a party afterwards.

long acting tour across the
country. And that's not all.
The theater's most tireless

Besides performing two roles
on stage, she is functioning
behind the scenes as transla-

One further circumstance
has her looking forward with
more-than-usual anticipation
to the strenuous trek: For a

comedy parts.

If the mourners are gath
ering for a wake tonight,
save a chair for me. We've
been through a lot together,
the Capitol Theater and I,
and it is only fitting to shed
a tear as its wide screen
goes dark forever and not
just until tomorrow.
The Capitol's demise has
long been inevitable, of
course. One of the last Of
the diversified ornate, gilded
presentation houses, it long
ago outlived its time.
If 1t hadn't-and If every
one had had the foresight
to not invent television-it
wouldn't be going perma-
nently dark. The Capitol is
the victim not of anybody's
greed but of the economic
facts of life today. Movie
audiences just can't afford
or support the luxury of all
that unnecessary space. 1t
is a Enthusiastically expensive
waste by real estate stand
ards.
This, Of course, does not
alleviate the sorrow at its
passing. Familiarity has not
bred contempt. Through the
years the Capitol changed in
the subconScious minds view
from imposing cinema palace
to something as familiar as
the living room at home.

Sacrifice For What!

The people of the nation have been
told by high government officials that
they must be- prepared to sacrifice"
They can understand that, when sacri-
fices are essential to defense OF war, but
it is difficult for them to enthuse about
sacrifices for purely domestic spending
by the government on schemes that
smack of nothing but expanding political
power.

'''''' ADVICE TO RETAILERS

Babson Park, Mass. Last
week, I set forth a series OF
tips for housewives who do the
family buying, trying to show
them how to hold their budgets
within reasonable bounds. At that
time 1t occurred to me that re-
tailers themselves need tips Just
as much as housewives If they
are to balance their budgets.
Seldom before has there been
such bitter competition on the
retail scene as there is today.
So here are some suggestions
for tradesmen, based upon my
many years Of observation.
GREAT OPPORTUNITIES

First Of all, I want to say
that Christmas business over
the coming weeks should ex-
coed previous records. Earning
power is good, and employment
has risen. Even more important,
however, is the fact that fore

retailers who are really on their
toes will come out with healthy
profits.
Take a good look at your es-
tabli shment, your employees,
YOUR inventory, and your ad-
vertising. Be sure your store IS
neat, attractive, well-lighted,
and near ample parking space
See to it that your merchandise
is clearly visible at all levels,
