Buses will be less crowded,
in the next few weeks, than
any time this year
You’ll be ’way ahead of the crowd if you board a
Greyhound today. During the next few weeks—
before millions of pleasure-bound Americans start
to sweep across the country in this first peacetime
vacation year—you can expect more travel comfort
than any time in 1946.
If you’ve delayed a friendly visit, business call, or
vacation trip, go right now —go in the comfort of an
easy-riding Greyhound motor coach along beauty
lined highways, at lowest fares.
This year, it’s wise to travel early! Any year, it’a
•mart to travel by Greyhound!

Play Will Be
Given by WayneU.
Sidney Howard’s artfully con
trived attack on professional moth
ers, "The Silver Chord,” will be
presented by the Wayne University
Theatre March 21. 22 and 23, at
the Women's Federation Audito
rium, Second at Hancock. It will
ibe the second of the plays given
by the University Theatre to be
presented as a Circular Theatre
production.
The Circular Theatre, anew ex
perimental form of production, re
quires the actor to perform draw
ing room drama ui a conversational
manner within a circle formed by a
i limited audience. No stage is used
and in the absence of a curtain the
beginning and ending of scenes
and acts is denoted by a racing
of lights in the first respect and a
biackout in the second.
PREVENT RUNNERS
IN PRECIOUS HOSE
Nowadays a run in your precious
stockings amounts to a major trag
edy. There are many ways to get
one of the nasty little ladders and
one of them we can try to prevent.,
When your garters are tqp snug,
you sometimes pull your hose too
tightly and zippo, away goes a run
ner.
If you will fasten your garters
j when you are sitting down you will
| find it muqh more satisfactory. If
they are fastened while you are
standing, the strain is sometimes
too much when your hose are
pulled taut as you sit down.
Adoption of Army-Navy Training
Methods Urged by Stale Educator
Richard D. Evans, Ecorse, was
among state educators who aided
in the preparation of advanced
Army and Navy training techniques
for Michigan Public schools.
Adoption of the civilian school
program was urged in anew de
partment of Instruction booklet
based on studies made by the 27-
man committee during a tour of
military training centers during the
war.
Pointing out that $50,000 was
spent by the government to train
one pilot, Dr. Raleigh Schorling,
professor of education at the Uni
versity of Michigan, and author of
the publication, reported that the
average cost to educate a sudent
from kindergarten to high school
is scarcely more than $1,200.
The booklet advocates: greater
use of visual aids such as sound
and silent movies, film strips and
other graphic arts materials, great
er emphasis on physical fitness
programs; better training facilities;
increased use of aptitude testing
examinations and improved coun
selling and guidance; greater use
of self-teaching materials and stu
dent assistants; enlivening of the
school day to increase student in
terest; better training teachers.
Evans is principal of Public
School No. three in Ecorse.
Million Men,
For Britain's
Peacetime Army
LONDON (U.R)— Britain plans to
retain about 1,000,000 men and 100,-
000 women in the armed services
up to the end of 1046, and keep
' conscription in effect for the time
being, a White Paper presented to
the House of Commons by Prime
Minister Clement Attlee revealed.
Meanwhile the government pro
poses to enter into conferences
with the governments of the Do
minions with a view to establish
ing a central defense organization
for the British Commonwealth.
Lists Commitments
Once the future shape of the
defense system is decided in con
junction with the Commonwealth
countries, the Imperial Defense
Council will decide whether or not
conscription need be maintained.
It is known that the Labor govern
ment would like to get rid of it if
they are able.
Oommitmets presently imposed
or Britain by her political ar
rangments and undertakings are
listed by the White Paper:
(1) Helping ensure execution of
surrender terms by Germany and
Japan.
(2) Assisting occupation of Aus
tria.
(3) Providing forces to "assist
Greek nation’s recovery.”
(4) Helping U. S. occupy Vene
zia Giulia.
(5> Liquidation Japanese occu
pation qj "Allied territories in S.E
Asia ”; this means Indonesia.
(6) Maintenance internal secur
ity of Britsih Empire
(7) Safeguarding communications
and upkeep of bases in Empire and
Commonwealth.
Four of these commitments
Greece, Venezia Giulia, Palestine
and Austria—will be wiped off the
list if political solutions are ar
rived at during 1946, the White
Paper adding "in the mean
time the preservation of law and
order makes heavy demands on our
resources.”
h Salute to Murder ’
Makes Theatrical
History Here
According to the ever-accurate
editors of Variety, “Salute to Mur
der,” which has Its world premiere
at the Lafayette Theatre on Sun
day evening, March 24, will also
establish a bit of theatrical his
tory.
I It marks the first time, say these
, erudite gentlemen, that a son has
ever presented his father s dramatic
handiwork. The son in question is
Eruce V. Fagan, and his father is
none other than Myron C. Fagan,
the well known author of such past
Broadway successes as “Nancy's
Private Affair,” ‘Jimmie’s Women,”
The Little Spitfire” and many
others.
‘ Salute to Murder” is a mingling
of fact and fiction based on some
hitherto unrevealed data pertain
ing to the traitors and saboteurs
actually responsible for the Pearl
Harbor debacle. The leading figure,
played by Frederic Tozere, is a
powerful newspaper columnist who
meets his death under exceedingly
mysterious circumstances. How the
riddle is solved is, of course, Mr.
Fagan s secret, and he reveals it in
three suspenseful acts laid in the
columnist s opulent Park Avenue
penthouse.
