Big doings at Club 1 this week
have sorta pushed this column
aside, so we’ll have to tell you in
a real “quickie” what’s cooking
at the Club this week:
COMES FRIDAY NIGHT
And, as usual, you dance-minded
GIs will truck on over to the Field
House dance (2000 to 2330) where,
also as unusual, junior hostesses

READ — THEN DANCE!
Adele and lots of others have
noticed this sail situation, and
so this week we’re turning the
spotlight on the GI joker who
stands around, and looks at jun
ior -hostesses at Service Club
dances—but makes nary a move
to dance. (We know they’re
pretty, but there’s a time and
place for everything, and what
do you think they have that
smooth music for?)
Hostesses of nearby towns
are taking steps to limit the
number of their girls who can
attend a dance, because of this
particular brand of “armchair
generals.” So—let’s dance.
REAL BATTLE OF WITS
Monday will match four junior
hostesses from Salem with four GIs
of the 70th Division’s PRTC in
what should prove a real battle for
the gals (who- usually win), as
these GIs are former ASTL'dents.
Special numbers will be present
ed between “rounds” of the battle,
and prizes will go to the audience
as well as contestants.

UNCERTAIN GLORY—The sol-
einn picture in this week’s new
fare—it is a story of conquered
France and hostages combined in
a fresh treatment which may give
it distinctive appeal to GIs. Almost
a performance piece, its stars are
Pi ul I.ukas (Academy Award win
ner» and Errol Flynn. Flynn’s mix
ture of insolence and guile as the
thief-who-turns-hero are excellent
ly done and keep suspense alive to
the end.
YOU CAN’T RATION LOVE—
This, advance blurbs predict, will
appeal to the “bobby-sock age”
movie-goer. But again, for light
musical-comedy, it’s all yours. It
turns the old story of rationing in
to a new and different use—dates
with the men remaining on the
small college campus are strictly
rationed and when a gal gets too
low in her point supply, she has
to be content with "Two Point
Simpson.” This ia all well ami good,
until "Two Point Simpson” devel
ops unsuspected qualities.

MEET I HE PEOPLE—Not a
major musical, but it will hold its
own well in the current trend to
light musical entertainment (de
finitely noticeable at the Post thea
ter» this week). Story concerns
a comedy produced in a shipyard
where the star (practicingxfor her
role as a shipyard worker) is froz
en in the job. Rousing finale and
, a little number entitled “Shickle-
' gruber” in the middle' might well
' stop the show. Combines vocaliz-
I ing to a satire on oriental dances
I by Mata and Hari. a smart per-
j formance by Lucille Ball and
I sprightly musical score by orches-
i tras df Vaughn Monroe and Spike
Jones. You’ll relax, GI.
■COWBOY AND THE SEÑOR
ITA—A sure-fire box office treat
in this fast-moving musical-west-
ern-romance featuring cowboy Roy
Rogers. Backed up with bell-ringer
scene» of Western adventure, it
' has a profusion of snappy musical
I numbers. Both th« original songs
, and the smooth speciality dancers
