HAHRTRBUEO, Pa.- (UP) A crosa- aectlon of Pennsylvania's Induatrlal accident reports of recent months discloses some unusual mishap. Cats, snakes, spiders, cows, turtles, pigs and horses played the leading roles in some of the xinusual acci dents reported to the sUte depart ment of labor and Industry, according i to Ralph M. Bashore, head of the de partment. To emphasize the importance of employe and employer exercising "care at all times and In all olrcumstAnces." Bttshore cited a few "unusual aoci dents." as follows: A West Homestead employer, who had a warm spot for cats, suffered a badly lacerated hand while removing his pet feline's head from a salmon can In which It had become wedged. A Philadelphia fireman who trip ped over a cat and fell from the first floor to the basement, .suffering cere bral concussion and contusions. A Philadelphia restaurant worker who was badly snapped by a turtle before he started making soup. A Dauphin county worker who was bitten by a snake when ha lifted a stone. Another unusual mishap waa a flcranton window cleaner who was badly cut when a window knocked hla arm against his pocket In which he carried several razor blades. The razor blades were part of his equip ment, tised for scraping stickers and posters from windows. Dentists, too. are not Immune from acldentn. In Philadelphia, a dentist suffered a badly blackened eye when a tooth he extracted slipped from the forceps and struck him In the eye. "These are some unusual accident, Baahore said. "I cite them to bring out the great need of care at all times and In all circumstances so that by cooperation we may further reduce the number of industrial aceldenta In Pennsylvania." Lawrence Tibbett Delights Audience Craterian Picture The magic of great song Is the prin cipal attraction at the Craterian the ater, where Lawrence Tibbett Is cur rently starring In "Metropolitan." the bright and charming romance of a young alnger. Pictured with sympathy, vigor and an abundance of sparklin comedy. "Metropolitan" traces Tibbett's career aa a young alnger who can brook no delay, launches out on the world on hla own. meets discouragement. disappointment, romance and, at last recognition. His trail crosses that of Virginia Bruce, and there is affection between them Immediately, But because Alice Brady, who controls the money in their operatic company, la Jealously fond of him, they must conceal their affection. Between placating Alice Brady and attending to the wild vagaries of George Marion, Sr., the orchestral con ductor. Tlbbet has hla work cut out for him. When, at last. Miss Brady deserts the company all his anguish see ma to have gone for nothing. But ingenuity and courage solves the problem, and the climax presents Tib bett as the hero of the evening, wild ly applauded after his sensational debut. In the course of the action, Tibbett sings selections from "Pagliaocl." "Carmen" and "The Barber of Se ville," aa well as a number of popular compositions. In magnificent voice throughout, Tibbett reveals new possibilities as. a romantic actor in "Metropolitan." Miss Bruce la charming and lovely In the romantic lead. MJae Brady still la one of the most effective comediennes the screen boasts. In the supporting roles, Cesar Ro mero. Thurston Hall and LUla Al bernl are outstanding.

Aa Clarissa Phlpps. Miss Lord gives ua an earthy, full-flavored char acterisation, human and understand ing. Basil Rath bone, one of the mcrt able actors on the English-speaking stage, plays opposite Miss Lord In an entirely sympathetic role that la his best to date. Louis Hay ward, the aenaatlonal young Britisher, sets a new standard for Juveniles. Without being over-generoue to Plcadllly, It must be said that It has sent ua an outstanding actor. Blllle Burke de fends the American cause by acquit ting herself in altogether admirable fashion and succeeding In standing out In another of her fluttary parts. Wendy Barrle Is a vibrant, charm ing girl with a good deal of talent. To make a very long story as short as possible, every member of the cost.
