Sure, KNECHT Vendome Well hardly, not literally nor in reality, but a joining of hands, as it were, of the familles that operate them, For Jerome Beeler Van Orman has married Miss Marjorie Scholz. The groom is the son the famed F. Harold Van Orman who operates the McCardy, (and other hotels in the Van O.

chain), while the bride is the daughter of Frederick J. Scholz, who with his brother Norman assist, in no small way, their father, Charles Scholz, in the operation of the Vendome. (Both fathers, of the young couple have names, Frederick.) There has always been a "friendly" rivalry between Harold and the Scholz clan. Jerome Van Orman, the groom, is in law school in Los Angeles and chances are he will not follow his father's or brother's 1 hotel-footsteps, Harold manages the Van Orman Hotel "Nelson" at Rockford, Ill, Island" promises to be 88 entertaining as "Hello for it is a riot of color and songs some big elaborate stage scenes and many gals in abbreviated togs. But don't take literally for the well known Coney Island, although some actual resemblance might be of 1895.

Charles Winninger who is in it with Betty Grable came this way years ago, many years ago with the Winninger Brothers Repertoire company playing week stands with a change of play nightly. He was last here with his wife, Blanche Ring, at the old Wells BijouStrand theater about 1919. "Stage Door Canteen" moves over, for a hold-over, to the Majestic. It is a highly entertaining film with many notables of the stage appearing for brief but interesting scenes with the leads of the story all young folk of whom Lon MeAllister has relatives around Grayville and Carmi and Cheryl Walker and William Terry and having local connections in Terry's relatives, the Stinchfields and an aunt, Mrs. Catherine Cunningham.

"Bombardier" is an air tale as you can see. "Five Graves to Cairo" is moved up a week. "Mr. Lucky" is said to be one of those that might bring the coveted "golden-Oscar" to Cary Grant. The coming of "Dixie" with Bing Crosby is all about minstrels from Dan Emmett's day down he wrote the song "Dixie." Among minstrels shows, those we recall as a boy and man.

were Haverly's Minstrels, Billy Emmerson's, Beach and Bowers, Al G. Fields (all white and also an all Negro company), John W. Vogel who also had an all Negro troupe on tour in "Darkest Africa" which was really a minstrel show. Barlow. Wilson, Primrose and West.

Coburns, Cohan (George and Harris Minstrels with Honey Boy Evans later Honey Boy Evans, Neil 0'Brien's Minstrels, and Lasses White's, Old timers, have I missed any? As early as 1799, a performance in Boston advertised that a black faced clown would sing "The Gay Negro Boy." Thomas Dartmouth Rice made Negro characters on the stage very popular around 1828 in N. Y. City, and with his song "Jim Crow" in Louisville in 1830 he is credited by some with bringing the reign of Negro minstrels to the theater. But to Dan Emmett in 1843 was credited the first group of men as the "minstrels" we learned to know.

Philadelphia boasted a permanent minstrel theater, that of Emmett J. Welch for many many years and up to a few vears ago. "Gentlemen Be Seated" tara-ra-tamborines, bones and orchestra strike up the opening number. -3ksThe Evansville Printing Corp. Pressmen and assistants union No.

Third Street RUSCHMEIER'S FULTON AND PENNSYLVANIA Back From Our Vacation OPEN MONDAY FOR BUSINESS AS USUAL Columnist Attacks Actors Who Take Railroad Jaunts Just For Fun By JIMMIE FIDLER HOLLYWOOD, July 24.

I have dished out enough praise for war work being done by movie stars to entitle me to a few words of criticism, equally as merited as the praise. Yesterday I talked with a friend who, with his wife, had just returned from a visit to their son, seriously ill at a north Texas Air Base. They had to share an upper berth on their return trip because the train FIDLER (like all war- trains) was crowded far betime yond normal capacity. In their car without a berth and therefore unable to sleep for two consecutive nights was an expectant mother. Her husband had been sent overseas and she was en route to California to be with her when the baby, due in two arrived.

She parents, was so ill that every minute on the train was agony, elf Earned" Trips In a drawing room at the end of the same car travelled a certain screen actress and her maid. The actress, was York--a returning jaunt tronouivated by nothing more important than a desire to see the season's shows and do a bit of shopping, Comment from me can hardly add to the thoughts in your own mind. However, I don't want to leave you with the impression that the actress in question is an exception to the rule. There hasn't been a day for months that I have failed to receive in studio publicity, news that this player or that was leaving for some distant point on "well earned" vacation. I hope they enjoy their trips.

A Son of 36 Idol chatter: Wonder if Victor Moore's 36-year-old son refers to papa's 22 year old wife as "mama" Ode to ambition: Irene Dunne's determination to succeed on ability when she has legs like Marlene Dietrich's. Silly notion: Ned Sparks and Boris Karloff sharing a radio "morning cheer" program. Add Hollywood similes: As rebellious as Bing Crosby in a stiff collar. Greta Garbo's shoes have had more publicity than a any footwear since Mother Goose discovered an old lady living in onemaybe one Garbo's. Down to ora earth name that fits its owner; Kate Smith.

Put In Place Richard Arlen's "tall tales" are a local legend. He can relate more bare-faced fancies at one sitting than any man I ever knew. Not harmful fibs, mind you; just little white lies about his own imagined prowess. I remember one party where he described in dramatic language his airplane flight over China shortly after the outbreak of the Sino-Jap war. From his plane (said Dick, not forgetting to add that "they were constantly fired he could see the battle surging back and forth.

Arlen's wife (they are now living apart) said nothing until they were on their way home, when she made this dry comment: "Flying over China! Humph! You haven't even seen 'Madame Butterfly'!" Fish Story Actresses doing Canteen work are learning that the boys are apt to take them at their word. Last week, Laraine Day, who doesn't look like a star offscreen, was dancing with a soldier. He asked her occupation and when she said "movie actress" he kidded: "I suppose you have a castle and a swimming pool." "No." replied Miss Day, "but I have a river with fish in it." When the doughboy expressed disbelief, she said, prove it.

Before recent. broadcast, Kay Kyser was "warming up" the alldiences with his usual pre-program show.

In the front row sat a man, plainly a farmer, who kept heckling the bandleader. At Kay's every word, this chap would laugh long and loud. At last Kay became annoyed and said: "What are you laughing a at? I can't be that funny." But the heckler was ready. "I'm laughing," he roared.

Johnny Ward left some lions at Mesker Zoo (temporarily) about five Or six years ago.

And so, along that line, this editorial from the Freeport, Journal-Standard is worth reprint- ling: Second Thought on Stickers "Last week this page expressed surprise at the large number of motorists stopped by action of the Detroit OPA board, and penalized for not carrying any or sticker. on their windshields. After reading more of the subject of rationing violations, we have to revise our opinion.

The fact is, absence of any sticker from the windshield of a car is prima facie evidence of a violation, because a filling station attendant is not legally able to deliver gas to any car except on presentation of coupons that correspond with the windshield sticker. It is true, of course, that carrying the wrong sticker is a worse offense, and harder to detect. "New regulations Issued by the Wisconsin OPA board on the enforcement of OPA gasoline rationing rules in southern and especially southeastern Wisconsin. remove one of the major objections hitherto raised. It is now said that offenders will be reported back to their own home rationing boards.

for appropriate action, such as revocation of their rationing privileges. Any home board would be less disposed to enforcement of the peremptory and arbitrary sort that used to be inflicted on passling motorists in the days when speed traps were prevalent.
