The Rio will have a east west, well balanced bill: "Queen of Broadway" and "King of the Cowboys." LIEUTENANT HOWARD MARKUSE phones from the Carlisle Army Post to tell us about a streamlined minstrel show there on Thursday evening, describes the production as an "all soldier effort." The men built the stage settings, even the stage, gathered all the "props" and managed to borrow sufficient costumes. The Lieutenant, who is the special service officer, said and see what we have.

"We'd like to have you come up So many are asking for Kath ryn Sheldon's Harrisburg address. It's the same as that of Mystery Voice No.

1 But where? ACCORDING to Senator A. H. Letzle, chairman of the Senate's law and order committee, the people of Penn 5 1 sylvania have decided that the soldiers do not need or want Sunday entertainment. What is the soldiers' opin ion? We know through personal contacts and authentic reports. If you want to know, to a dozen or so any Sunday afternoon in Harrisburg.

Unfortunately under military rules, soldiers cannot express opinions. Neither they nor their representatives could speak at the open hearing. It was a field day for the opposition, unhamp ered by the rules of war. Quite naturally. Senator Letzler's mail is heavy with the protests of those opposing decent bunday entertainment.

The soldiers dare not speak for publication; neither can they write what they feel. A reader sends us a clipping from an article by Thomas M. Pryor in the New York Times (Sunday, April 25). It's enlightening at least: (fn Ha long standing ban against Sunday movie shows in Canada I is about to be lined, but only for the benefit of men and women in the armed services. Co operating with Canadian authorities, who sought a means for providing the military with an extra measure of relaxation, the famous Players Canadian Cor poration, worked out a plan with film distributors, projection' ists and stage unions to provide free entertainment on Sundays for uniformed men and women on leave or stationed in five large "situations." Famous Players will foot the cost of the shows, bul the theatres will be operated on Sundays under "direct supervision of military authorities, who will be re sponsible for seating arrangements and the conduct of the troops." Military personnel will even take the place of civilian ushers." "NE of the "trends" in motion pictures during th past several seasons has been that of revival of old time songs.

In some cases the an cient tune, dug out of its mothballs and given a new streamlined Dresentation. achieves a nodularity lena horne in in excess of its original one. "As Time Goes By," tamo first published fourteen years ago, and recently featured in "Casablanca," is an interesting example of this. Such cavalcades of aged in the wood songs as Yankee Doodle Dandy," "Alexander Ragtime Band," "Tin Pan Alley" and "For Me and My Gal" provided momentum for this movement. "For Me and My Gal," for example, repopularized such numbers, quite un known before to the younger generation, as "Oh, You Beautiful Doll," "When You Wore a Tulip," "How Ya Gonna Keep 'Em Down on tne and "Alter You've Gone." In "Presenting Lily Mars," new production with Judy Garland in the title role, two more numbers of nostalgic flavor take a new bow.

They are Karl Hoschna's "Every Little Movement Has a Meaning of Its Own" and Julian Robledo's "Three O'Clock in the Connie Gilchrist, and ''Three O'Clock" as a specialty with chorus accompaniment. Both numbers are expected to take on a new and vigorous vitality after release of the film. "Presenting Lily Mars" is derived from Booth Tarkinfiton's novel 01 a stage struck Indiana girl who battles for recognition on Broad way in spite of every possible discouragement. Van' Heflin. who was seen recently in the title role of "Tennessee Johnson," has the principal maie roie, tnat of a young producer.

music department heads on the West Coast have been as sur prised as anyone else at the evidence that old time numbers, given a second me on celluloid, have frequently won greater public re sponse and more radio "plugs" than new numbers in the same movie scores. They attribute it in Dart to the fact that these sones were underrated in the first place, and that sentiment and the element of recognition play an important factor in the second cycle of the numbers. It is also felt that jive sated hish schoolers are exDeriencing some kind of reaction away from swing music and back to the type oi tune inai neid sway the earlier years of the century.
