M. A First Rate Musical Picture ((f OMETHING FOR THE BOYS," the technicolor musical at the FOX Theater this -week, ahould be required ee- ing: for all prospective producers of song; and dance films, since it embodies all the requirements of a first rate musical picture. It has pretty girls and pretty songs, well produced dance numbers, and a light love story woven into a plot that strains your credulity but is funny enough to justify itself. The music could be better, as there is no one outstanding song that you whistle as you leave, but in "5 IV YT-f XV. FOR WEATHER REPORTS Tune to KSD At 6, 6:45, 7:45, 8:30 and II A.

Chief attraction is Vivian Blaine, the cherry blonde, who is quite a few pounds trimmer, quite a bit more attractive and polished of performance than she was in "Greenwich Village," and in the scantier costumes, really something for the boys. She is Blossom Hart, Brooklyn night club singer and one of three cousins who inherit a Southern Variety and Comedy.

Magnolia Manor, near Masonville, Ga. The other two cousins are Harry Hart (Phil Silvers) a sidewalk gadget pitchman and Chlquita Hart (Carmen Miranda), daughter of a traveling Hart, and also a welder who has carborondum in her teeth fillings which enables her to hear radio programs even when the radio is turned off. The three cousins meet for the first time in Georgia and find that the family manse is a dusty white elephant with doors that collapse and pigeons in the pillars. As they're wondering how to dispose of the ruins, a group of soldiers headed by Sgt. Rocky Ford, an ex-bandleader (Michael O'Shea) walk in with plan for renovating the house as a hottl for army wives in the overcrowded vicinity.

The rest of the plot concerns the usual romantic misunderstandings plus some business about the hotel being declared off limits, then on again when Blossom and Rocky help the Blue Army capture the Reds in Army maneuvers. Musical scenes occur when the soldiers and wives put on a show to finance their remodeling venture. Carmen Miranda and Phil Silvers contribute numerous laugh-out-loud scenes, the latter doing a "Southern medley" that is as hilarious as any Danny Kaye foolery. Perry Como sings the swoon tunes nicely. Sheila Ryan is a thoroughly hateful menace, and Cara Williams is a bright spot as the secretary with a Southern fried accent.

619 Locust St. 8 A. ft. KSD ASSOCIATED PRESS NEWS; Morning requirements are well met. Fruit Honey Crlap Tarts.

One-half cup sugar, one-half cup honey, one-fourth teaspoon salt, one teaspoon vinegar, four cups rice cereal, two cups crushed sweetened berries or peaches. Cook sugar and honey together, stirring only enough to prevent burninff until it forms a hard ball when dropped from the tip of a spoon into cold water. Remove from heat; add salt and vinegar. Put rice cereal into large buttered bowl. Pour in syrup, mixing well.

Divide mixture into four large buttered tart pans. Press evenly against bottom and sides of pans. Cool until firm. Remove tart shells from pans. Place on individual serving plates.

Fill with fruit. Serves four. Here's an Alicc-through-the-look-lng-glaas meal which will appeal to the young and do them good too. Cocoa-Nut Pudding. Two cups milk, one-third cup farina, one-hnlf cup sugar, one-fourth teaspoon salt, two tablespoons cocoa, two tablespoons water, one-half cup chopped toasted nut meats.

Scald milk in top of double boiler. Add farina slowly, stirring constantly. Cook over hot water, stirring until thickened. Cover; cook 20 minutes. Add sugar.

Dissolve cocoa in water; add. Cook five more minutes. Add nut meats. Serve hot, topped by generous tablespoonf uls of vanilla Ice cream. Serves four.

CEREALS are good for you. So Is milk. So la fruit. How many thousand times would you guess the youngest set of our land has heard those words of wisdom? Enough, many of -them, so that they would like never to see any more cereal. Or any more mlik.

Or any more fruit, either. And now I propose you give them all three for a party. And they'll love it. They won't recognize High Nutrition Value in the guise you'll offer them. But it will be there.

And it'll be a party just the same. Ice cream is America's favorite food. This Is a preference which starts very early in life. When I was young ice cream was a luxury and a treat. It's still a treat.

But it's much easier to come by than it was 20 or 30 years ago, and with our advancing nutrition knowledse we fan relax And sny It's not only delectable but good for you as well. Cereal Sundae. Four cups wheat flakes, one pint vanilla ice cream, butterscotch, fudge, on fruit sauce. In each of four individual dessert or cereal dishes pile a cup of wheat flakes. Top each with a scoopful of ice cream.

Serve with preferred sauce. If you want to make it really drug-store fancy, add sliced fruit to the sides and then sauce! (Shades of the banana split remember?)

The Doctor On Benefits Of Massage By Logan Clendening, M. D. SOME of the best methods of treatment of common conditions are shamefully neglected. Most of us instinctively feel that a remedy is syrfbnymous with a drug. Perhaps a vague faith in diet as a method of treatment of chronic disorders prevails.

But 10 to one, nobody in the average household ever thinks of treating a cold by hydrotherapy, which is the art of treatment by water, and which in most instances gives the most prompt relief of any method of treating a cold. Hydrotherapy means to most some sort of institute or establishment with elaborate and costly apparatus for giving needle showers and playing water from a hose on the human form. But the average American bath room Is a very good hydropathic institute, and the most valuable hydrotherapeu-tic procedures can be given right there. The same reluctances prevail concerning massage. It will do wonders that cannot be accomplished with any medicine, and yet is constantly neglected.

For most people it means a masseur and that means expense. Well, we will grant that a professional masseur does the job better than anyone else, but an old doctor I used to know spent his life crusading with the slogan that massage was just rubbing and anybody could make a fair stab at it, and if nobody else was around self-massage was possible and a very valuable method of treatment. HE CAME OF AN arthrltio family and had seen his father, uncle and brother gradually become crippled and almost bed ridden. When symptoms began to show up in himself he was prac- ticing in a small town where there was no professional masseur, so he began systematically rubbing himself. He gave all his muscles a good going over at night when he got Into bed, kneading and rubbing and slapping them, and then moving his joints one after another.

He at least experienced great relief from pain and muscular stiffness and never became crippled as had the other members of his family. Nothing could ever have persuaded him that his escape was not due to his self-massage. I once saw a patient in consultation with him. The man had experienced attacks of pain in the chest over the heart region a few years before and my self-massage friend had taught him to rub the muscles of the chest whenever an attack came on. He said he guessed It was angina, but anyway the massage seemed to alter the circulation and stopped the attacks.

Indeed it stopped them for several years. We know so little about the real mechanism of pain in angina that I did not feel I was in a position to disagree with him. What the patient had when I saw him in consultation was something entirely different from angina. THE PROFESSIONAL masseur insists that a knowledge of anatomy is essential for anyone who is going to give scientific massage. I would be the last to deny it, but I think too much emphasis can be put on that.

After all, it is effective mostly over muscles and on the skin and in passive movements of joints and everyone knows where they are. The professional masseur gives very grand names to the different movements he uses: effleurage, petrissage and tapotement. But effleurage is just stroking, superficial and deep; and petrissage is friction or kneading or pressing; and tapotement is hacking and clapping and beating. Granted that the professional masseur does them in a finished way, still any member of an intelligent family can learn to' do them on the ailing one who needs them. And while I advise by all means to use the best massage you can, do not cut yourself off from this valuable remedy just because the expert is not available in your community.

Even The Fair was not a personallied family matter.

"Meet Me in St. Louis" will still be, as the book was, a pleasantly reminiscent journey back to those peaceful, untroubled days when a family's most momentous decision was whether to move to a new city or not, when the young lady of the family had to flaunt tradition to kiss her boy friend, because "nice girls never kiss a boy till they're engaged," when a little girl without a background of radio horror stories had to work up a lot of courage to throw flour in the face of the neighborhood's meanest man on Halloween eve, and thus attain the accolade of being "the most horrible." The well chosen cast for the St. Louis Smiths number Leon Ames as Father Alonzo, along somewhat explosive Life With Father lines, Mary Astor as the pretty, gentle mother, Lucille Bremer as the oldest sister, Rose; Judy Garland as Esther, and Margaret O'Brien as Tootie. Tom Drake is John Truitt, the nice boy next door on whom Esther- has a hopeless crush; Walter Davenport the understanding grandfather Prophater, and Marjorie Main does her usual peppery performance as Katie, the cook. The film follows the book fairly closely, at least In spirit.

There is less of Lon's practical joking and more of Esther's love affair, very little of Agnes and very much of Tootie. As far as the audience is concerned, the picture could have been all Tootie, with Margaret O'Brien taking every scene in which she appears. Because the film does follow the book, each small incident is well rounded as was Mrs. Benson's writing of it. Criticising this picture would be a little bit like criticising a civic institution, but the one flaw that several people have mentioned has been the fact that there is so little of The Fair shown.

However, for the satisfaction of purists, the picture ends just as the book did, with the Smiths' first glimpse of the lights of the magicaly beautiful Skinker Swamp, and their marvel that this wonder could be "right here in St. Louis." Another Saga of the Saddle Roy Rogers, that idol of every true red blooded American boy. again proves that clean living pays, in "SAN FERNANDO VAsLEY," at the ST. LOUIS. In this saga of the saddle, Roy is the good guy who catches the bad guys stealing horses.stops a runaway steed with his bare hands, knocks Mrs.

The enlisted men and officers representing- the advance detachments of the Fifth Air Force Headquarters, including the boss, Lt. Gen. George C. Kenney, will remember their introduction to the Philippines for a long time. Projected into the campaign two days after the assault forces swarmed ashore, the collection of staff officers, clerks, signal specialists and miscellaneous headquarters personnel pitched camp under the coconut palms and hastily dug foxholes.

It was fortunate. The next morning breakfast was interrupted by Japanese planes, and nine brass hats attending a morning officers' call hit the same foxhole. It was a dead heat. Ma. Ted Wagner, public relations officer on leave from the St.

Louis Post-Dispatch, complained that he was in and out of his foxhole so often he felt like a cuckoo in a clock. The Air Force wag finally called on to help the hard pressed engineers finish the Tacloban strip and get it ready for ground-based fighters.

HOW It Started By Jean Newton "CHAFF." "Chaff" is an old collective term for the husks of corn or other grain, separated by threshing or winnowing. It is rooted in the Anglo-Saxon ceaf husk. The chaff was either thrown away or fed the cattle; hence the use of the term for refuse or worthless matter. But how did "chaff" come to mean "banter" teasing? An authoritative supposition is that this "chaff" is a variant of chafe in its sense of irritating or exciting someone heating or "steaming" him up.

An intriguing theory is that the usage springs from an old English custom, said to be practiced still in the North Midlands. This was for neighbors who had an idea that one of their number was mistreating his wife to dump a sack of chaff at the guilty citizen's door. Such mild raillery was calculated to remind whosoever it might concern that thrashing was suspected thereabouts, and a gentleman should take a hintl For Mtn and Wemtnf Men's Sizes 6 to 12 Complete Play-by-Play 45 GOING OOZWW AS I'-ML Mrg TO THE STATIONER'S YCONCERNED NOU DO-nTTA lilOU WANT UPRc mw CADD TODAW AND ORDER HAVE TO ORDER ANN TO BET -THAT TtS poBTUF OUR CHRISTMAS CARDS.W IT'S ALL A LOT OF IMON- KBOUT 2 DAMS omrE DEAR BE 5 I DEAR.
