'Cat and Canary' Comes to Forrest, At the Theatres Tonight WALTER WINCHELL ON BROADWAY THSEE DECADES OF JOLLITY The Nineteen Twenties opened with every joke-writer making almost as good a living out of prohibition jokes as bootleggers mined in the Silliest Amendment. 1921 fetched the flapper, and the mouthings of the fresh young thing assailed you from the mags and the vaude stages. A year later, Eugene O'Neill put some language he had picked up sea into his hits, and a crack like "go to hell" getting more attention than chorus gels with no clothes on, or anyway just a few.

The Prince of Wales, now the Duke of Windsor, acted like a real prince all during 1923, obliging with a fall off his the party by reporting that a man leaning on a shovel wasn't CAM DEM BROADWaT "Splroaur and "Heenant Boy Cont. irora 11 OO. BUM "Urtd OO. 00. GftAND "The Clrl from 1101, 00.

AN INDIANA PEDAGOGUE wrote a six-pound tome and, much to his surprise, the whole laugh program for 1947. Dr. Kinsey's idea was to point out that a certain amount of male frolicking goes on, having no idea of how many salaried wits were waiting for somebody to say it first. Dr. Kinsey is booked solid for 1950, when his second book arrives telling how sinful the ladies are, and how often.

LAST YEAR, being a campaign year; almost everything spoken was funny, and it's no easy job to assess just what collared the most laughs. The alibiing of the officeholders was the usual repeat stuff, amusing to those hearing it for the first time, but hardly A-l. The Pulitzer awards have the same handicap, stumbling being a better click when it's unexpected. For a time it looked like Henry Wallace would win hands down.

THE SILENT GABY Cooper was always one who could keep a secret I have just learned that for two years now he has had an Idea to make a picture based on the true life story or Andrew Jackson, one of our really great Presidents. Gary's idea is to show not only Vthe political and soldiering angles, but the relationship between the 'general and his wife. He will incorporate the spectacle of the battle of New Orleans, and has had a writer working on re search for the first screen treat merit. This will be after Gary finishes work on The Girl On the Via Flaminia," based on the best seller. I wonder how Gary or anyone else is going to get by the censorship angles of this book.

A favorite of theatreeoers for more man three decades, this famed comedy chiller was never more enthusiastic ally received There is a very good reason for us reputation as the outstanding mystery play of all time. he plot revolves around the reading of the will of Cvrus Canby West at midnight in his country nome, 2Q years after he passed on. The home of the deceased, a stately mansion on the Hudson. has been unoccupied except for "Mammy" Pleasant, the late Mr. West's faithful housekeeper, who nas oeen leu in charge.

ine six heirs and descendants of West gather to hear the will read. The hour is too late for them to return home so they remain overnight at the mansion, only to be beset with "ghosts" and "murderers" who take over at the usual time midnight, of course. First to be attacked is Roeer Crosby, the old family lawyer who had read the will. He disap pears aner a powerful hand from out of the darkness snatches him away. Later the same "ghost" grabs a pearl necklace from the throat of Annabelle West as she lies asleep.

That lust about does It. Pan demonium breaks loose at this point and the uproar provides many a chill despite the obvious ly humorous theme of the play. Ian Keith as Roger Crosby, An thony Rivers as Harvey Blythe, and Donald Buka as Paul Jones, are excellently cast and prove their adaptability in the terror-to mirth, mirth to terror roles. Charlotte Knight as Pleasant handles her gruesome assignment with finesse, as do Lucille Sears as Susan Sillsby and Kathryn Eames as Cicely Young. A.

The nrst class to help cerebral palsy victims was started at the Bonsall school by the committee. Since that time, sufferers from this disease have come from all parts of South Jersey, seeking help and training."

Jerber, Director, i maaiii' i as irmasui '''III i ST horse on a dull day to land right into some sweating gagwriters copy. Harding took tne big portfolio in 1921, and Florida began sell ing land by the karat. You could build a whole comedy that year around a joke about the capitalist who owned a flower pot in Palm Beach.

Two years later they were laughing at the people who believed it. Noel Coward gave a worldly, international tone to Joke-teillng in 193, njs imports being aped in such a wicked way that you began wondering if your aunt was really nice. CAL COOLIDGE, who occasionally spoke up notwithstanding all reports, muttered in 1927 that "I do not choose to run" and lifted mortgages for a mob of grateful pokesters. In 1928, the last year the American people used their pockets, the Chicago mobsters fed the humorists by shooting pedestrains just to sharpen up their marksmanship. It.

was kind of gory joking but were a calloused bunch. We had to be to survive what happened a few months later. The laughter got good and gruesome in 1929, with all the punch lines dealing with the Wall Street crash. The popular type of yock dealt with the market victims who were suiciding from high places. And it was grim for the merry-makers In 150, too.

Their best sources were apple sellers, flagpole-sitters and marathon dancers. Poverty had become almost as funny as a slip on a banana peel. Corruption was the 1931" feeder to the wags, and we were all holding our sides over cracks about having the best judges money could buy. PRESIDENT HOOVER'S party-plug about "two cars in every garage came back to haunt him all during 1932 in the form of belly-laughs. And we were all so carefree in 1933 that we saw a hilarious situation in the bank failure.

For sheer wit you couldn't top anything that reported a pal's loss of his life's savings. Two sleepers, Maine and Vermont, were the comic inspiration of 1936. The two states were the complete catch of an amiable Kansan named Alf Landon, who had been kidded into placing a walkaway for FDR. THE WPA WORKERS kept comedy coiners off the relief rolls' in 1937.

My, they were sarcastic! A year later, when the blitz came and the big Nazi parade, these amusing characters wished they had kept their silly traps shut. There were no Joking matters in 1941. We were in the scrap ourselves in 1942, and out of the 1917 kits came all the old wheezes about draft exemptions. They were pretty beat-up looking, but they helped a lot until uie Kissers got rid of their gloom. THE i MILITARY ROUTINES got more chipper in 1943.
