Alfred Drayton and John Mills coursed the Hare in the grand tradition of Tom Walls and Ralph Lynn Together they saw to it that their little victim was kept prnfierly on the run He was enacting a dentist of enormous respectability but no matter for that They took off his trousers they hid him bound in the works of a grandfather clock they dressed him up as a tailor-made female and stood by while a fat man made advances to him they forced him into the street dressed as a hawker and made him sell tomatoes The results were funny In spots they were very funny But hard as the three chief comedians worked and solidly as a good company backed them they could not make Vernon Men Beasts into a show with the old Aldwyeh touch It lacked Ben magic secret of logical development his ability to involve recognisable characters actuated hy i credible motives in situations which though absurd were still possible However with Leslie Henson as producer to keep it going the pace was never in

MOTORING NO BIBLE WARRANT FOR PACIFISM Sir Thomas Inskip Minister for the Coordination of Defence spoke of attitude towards national defence last night Presiding at a meeting of the National Church League in Caxton Hall he said We have in this present time of stress and anxiety to undertake responsibilities of which all of us are all too well aware and we find men of undoubted piety teaching us that it is contrary to Word that men should defend their country or stand for its security I for one am profoundly thankful that the Church of England already has in its articles an answer to these mistaken opinions I am very glad indeed to think that if only tla ministers and the different congregations would pay heed to the true doctrine we should very soon find an antidote to this erroneous teaching There is no warrant for it in the REMINGTON TYPEWRITER CO LTD 100 Gracechurch Street I -'-n FC-U Phone Mansion House 333 Please send without oblujation partic lars ot the Remington Home

Rhythm on Tuesday week LOW PITCHED VOICES Both have low pitched and well modulated voices Miss Coweli has the deeper and quieter voice She speaks almost in a whisper They have the finely modelled features which make excellent television pictures The television make-up which they will probably have to use comprises light yellow cheeks dark yellow nose brown lips and green eyelids Miss Bligh told me that she had done a certain amount of film work in small arts Besides my film work I have had three stage she added I appeared in Julius at His Theatre in the Chariot revue Please and other London Miss Cowell has had considerable exjie-rience in posing before the camera during mannequin work She has however never done film work her only connection with the stage being in amateur
