The story concerns the psychological reactions of a child of 12 who has been raised by a governess and ignored by her father Shirley will have one dance number. It's in a sequence in which she imagines herself doing things.

One of the reasons why Frod Astaire bought a 125-acre ranch in San Diego county was to take up his old hobby' of breeding race horses. The dance star did it for seven years in England.

Blue Prints For Invasion Hundreds of pages of German operational orders, us used in the invasion of Crete, are being studied by British staff experts for the purpose of developing the right counter-measures when Hitler tries the same techniques on the invasion of England. These operational orders were captured in Crete by Australian "minute men" and are the principal useful result-of the Cretan dt-bacle, according to a radio dispatch published today by Collier's Weekly from Frank Gervasi, Us correspondent in Cairo, svho was permitted to go over the documents while copies were being made for shipment to Washington. The German operational orders are described as beitrrg "as detailed as the working drawings of a battleship," and, they show exactly how the air-bome conquest was carried out. They list what equipment parachute troops are required to carry down to "pencil with point protector, handkerchief and three ounces of toilet paper." Those who are inclined to pooh-pooh the German use of fifth columns will be disillusioned by the following excerpt from the German operational orders: "Fifth column men on the island of Crete, a proportion of whom are Cretan, will make themselves known to German troops by the password "Major These people are to be conducted to regimental battle headquarters." Here are further extracts from the captured documents: "Immedately locale and arrest important personalities, enemy divisional commanders and other senior officers, members of the Greek government, the mayor, bishop and chief of po'uce. These people may be used for hostages or in negotiations.

"Get interpreters. Write out from German-Greek pocket the most important joints about these people for all commanders and junior commanders. All British subjects are to be provisionally arrested. If population offers resistance ruthless measures are to be taken but fttherwise spare them. "People working in the fields are not to be allowed into daring the fighting.

The more important stocks of booty will be immediately reported to the "The divisional commander has forbidden the wearing of English uniforms. Units will be so instructed.

"Troops will be made familiar with the battle area by careful map study. The names of neighboring units are to be drilled into every It must be as though each man had jumped into his own country. Tasks and objectives will be drilled into the men word for word. Adjutants and company commanders will continue re. minding troops of the objectives.

I' Troops must again be emphatically warned against hysterical firing in view of the ammunition situation." The British attitude toward their battle in Crete is summed up as follows by staff officers in Cairo: "Tragic as the Crete affair was it wasn't completely a debacle. The men who died there didn't altogether die in vain. Maybe Crete saved England. For there is no doubt that the German invasion of Crete was a small-scale -working model of the invasion of. England.

But Hitler lost in the invasion of Crete his greatest weapon next to the airplane and tnw. He lost the element of surprise. "British tacticians know now precisely how an air-borne invasion operates and they have learned lessons therefrom. And the German drive on Crete was costly. The defense of Crete started on May twentieth and it collapsed on May twenty-eighth and they were probably the most e.xpenvive eight days Hitler has sustained since the war started."

There are major differences between London's and Berlin's versions. Britain's isn't going to suffer the disadvantage of expensive cable tolls. Thc questions are written to "Answering You."

Also, the British improved on the Nazi model tremendously Berlin put on the air to answer American comments, BBC offered prominent Britcns, government officials, persons who should know the answer.
