Mayflower -Bud Abbott and
Lou Costello frisk through “One
Night in the Tropics,” current
fare at the Mayflower, with all
the possible vaudeville tricks
on the docket. They are the sole
excuse for the show, which is
wrapped around an anemic plot
concerning a high pressure in
surance salesman who sells his
best friends a $1,000,000 policy
to guarantee his marriage.
Of course, the salesman then
proceeds to fall in love with
his client's fiancee. The scene
shifts to a West Indian island
for a happy ending. Allan Jones,
Nance Kelly, Robert Cummings,
and Peggy Moran struggle val
iantly with the story, but said
tale simply refuses to cooper
ate and give these experienced
people all the backing they de
serve. This has been done be
fore, and better. Abbot and Cos

son as Julius Reuters heads the
cast of “A Dispatch from Reu

support rendered by Edna Best
as his wife and Gene Lockhart
as the Aachen banker. The ac
tual story of how the London
news agency was founded is in
teresting, but Warner Broth
ers felt they had to make it
match such epics as “Dr. Er
lich’s Magic Bullet" or “Edison,
the Man.” It was a noble idea,
but they let the play get noble
too, which was not. From the
meagre beginnings of sending
stock quotations by means of
carrier pigeons, through Reu
ters’ handling of quickening
schedules and his selling of his
wire service until Reuters fin
ally became a great news agen
cy, the stuff is there, but it is
all so surrounded by the noble,
little wife Standing By Her
Husband Through His Adverse
Fortunes, and Reuters’ noble
statements that he is trying to
make his agency a going con
cern only in order to "make
the world smaller,” that little
of the original vitality of the
plot seeps through.

Hollander Writes Fact
Letter Uncensored
By MABY WOf.F
A letter from Amsterdam—un
censored by nazis, arrived in Eu
gene a few days ago. It was re
ceived by Dr. and Mrs. Quirinus
Breen, assistant professor of so
cial science and history.
Coming' to the United States by
way of Siberia, the letter escaped
the Nazi blue pencil and arrived
in Eugene without a single “ver
boten.”
The nazi spy system is very ef
fective, so effective that Holland
ers fear to trust even their
best friends. According to the let
ter no one is allowed to listen to
any other than German radio
broadcasts. If caught, a person
may be fined $10,0(H) or sent to
prison for two years.
Huns, as the people of the canal
country call the hated Germans,
have taken over all the gasoline,
so there is no transportation on
the highways.
As for actual living conditions,
the Hollanders write that it is
well-nigh impossible to obtain
meat and fat. People were used to
having dairy products but cheese,
eggs, ami milk now are sent into
Germany. Beginning: in November
they also took butterfat from the
milk and used it to make explo
sives.
Pogrom Exported
Tndieations of the beginning of
a Jewish purge in Holland are also
evident in the letter, which gives
the information that the Dutch
must fill out questionnaires stat
ing whether or not there is any
Jewish blood in their families.
Very few letters are received
uncensored from any place in Eu
rope. Some Americans are said to
have attempted in June to find
out what happened to friends in
Rotterdam during tho siege on
that city. They sent a cablegram
costing $45 with the same amount
for a reply. All they received in
return was another cablegram say
ing merely, “Heil Hitler.”

in psychology, has left the Univer
