...would be idle to deny the great achievements of the man who restored to the German nation its self-respect and its disciplined orderliness. The tyrannical methods which were employed within Germany itself to obtain this result were detestable, but were Germany's own concern. Many of Herr Hitler's social reforms, in spite of their complete disregard of personal liberty of thought, word or deed, were on highly advanced democratic lines. The 'Strength through Joy' movement, the care for the physical fitness of the nation, and, above all, the organisation of the Labor Camps...

...Latest theory of the complicated workings of allergic reaction: An allergen enters the bloodstream. If there are specific antibodies already present in the blood, the allergen is "conquered" and no symptoms result. But if the body is taken unawares, and antibodies are resting in tissue cells, a terrific battle follows. The offending allergen may be "neutralized," but only with great damage to tissue cells. As the cells are torn, large quantities of the chemical histamine escape into the bloodstream, cause "certain organic reactions ... in the walls of the blood vessels and in the smooth muscles...

...slipperiness of the wet ball gave the Green booters an opportunity to which they added a new spirit gained during the half.

...aroma of intrigue. Charles Laughton and Director Hitchock have joined forces, gathered around them an imposing array of writers and actors, and produced one of the best pictures of the year. The flamboyance of Laughton and the high-strung tension of Hitchcock direction complement each other perfectly. The result is high adventure worthy of Dumas combined with the trip-hammer pace of a first-rate detective story. Maureen O'Hara, Laughton's much-heralded colleen, is not, however, the sensation that one might expect. While she is admirable as a wide-eyed adventuress, it is hard to imagine...

Crosby's bunch was covered here briefly last week. Most important thing to understand about the band is that their rhythm is completely different from that played by most bands of today. It is two beats to a phrase, instead of four. As a result, you get a style of jazz that is more staccatto, with shorter melodic phrases, and all sorts of trick rhythmic effects achieved thru breaking up the beat. In other words, this is a white man's way of playing jazz, as opposed to the colored man's more lagging, slurring attack of long phrase...
