With Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland, Showing Here Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, June Preisser and other youngsters make musical merriment In "Strike Up the Band," first of the week feature picture on the screen of the Capitol Theatre here. Mickey and Judy organize a high school swing band and put on a show to raise money for a trip to Paul White-man's contest for school bands in Chicago. Mickey meets Whlteman (played by the famous orchestra leader In person) and all is set for the trip when one of the pals needs money for medical aid to save his life. They make the sacrifice but, thanks to the town millionaire, they make the trip and win the contest. Comical episodes include a travesty on old time melodramas staged by the youngsters with hero, heroine and villain. The old stunts of the "flicker days" are revived with such ancient ditties as "Heaven Will Protect a Working Girl" and "The Curse of an Aching Heart." In contrast there are such streamlined song hits of today as "Nobody" and "Our Love Affair" Whiteman and his orchestra contribute, "When Day Is Done" and "My Wonderful One." Other musical numbers include "Strike Up the Band," "She's More to be Pitied than Censured," "I Just Can't Make My Eyes Behave," "Ta Ra Ra Boom de Ay" and "The Drummer Boy." ACTRESS IS 'HOMEBODY'. But Helen Hayes Admits She's' "Stage Struck" in Shakespeare and Expects to Expand Drama Career By ADELAIDE KERR Associated Press Staff Writer NEW YORK, Feb. 3: (AP) Helen Hayes, who Is making her first Broadway appearance In Shakespeare and starring in contemporary radio dramas at the same time, already Is making career plans for 1941-42. To her neighbors, "Mrs. Charlie McArthur," she is one of America's tiniest and mightiest actresses. She Is five feet one, blue-eyed, soft-voiced. She has handled some of the theatre's toughest roles in a way that has given her tall stature in the eyes of its world. Miss Hayes is one actress who gets no thrill out ot night clubs. Every night after the performance she motor s, back to the country town of , Nyack, N.Y., where the McArthurs live with their 10-year-old daughter Mary, three-year-old adopted son Jamie and a brace of dogs. The star spends her country days in walks and skating excursions with lb children who mean a ml in her life. Big Success Miss Hayes and Maurice Evans, who have scored a big success as Viola and Malvolio in "Twelfth Night," plan to appear together in another play as soon as this ons ends Its; Broadway run and a possible tour. Miss Hayes thinks that may be next fall. Critics gave her a big hand for her interpretation of the famous role of Viola, in which she mas- 'querades as a boy and appears for theflrsttlmeon the stage in pants, black and white zebra-striped knickers which made the first night audience blink. She made an innovation in the part by appearing in a swooshing white ultra-feminine gown in the last act after her disguise is revealed. Wrapped in a suave fitted house- ' coat of Scotch striped wool, she sat on the chintz-covered sofa in her charming "social" dressing room, beyond the mirrored make-up room and talked about her first Shakespearean role on Broadway. Likes Avon Bard "I'm stage struck about It," she said. "I think I've enjoyed It more than any other play, Shakespeaie gives you the chance to say so many beautiful things. I'm still working on my reading of the verse In 'Twelfth Night' and get Charlie to check up on 'me every now and then." "Charlie" is her husband, Charles McArthur, playwright, who, she says, has contributed a lot to her career. How does she get It all done? Miss Hayes Just shrugs that question off. "I thrive on work," she says. "I Just do it. Besides, when you compare my program with what the old troupers of the 90's used to do It isn't much." AMERICAN I Wiliiam Gibbs McAdoo Had Career of Many Facets WASHPTyrON D.C., February 3: Tunnel builder, wartime secretary of the treasury, lawyer and senator, William Glbbs McAdoo senator, William Gibbs McAdoo who died here, had a career of many facets. He wos a power in the councils of the democratic party for more than 20 years, and played leading, but contrast n.j, roles in two of the most dramatic national conventions in the annals of American politics. At Madison Square Garden in New York In 1924, McAdoo and Al- Is Dead mm -II ury. fred E. Smith fought for three weeks the bitterest battle ever wa- yentlon on the crest of a wave of Roosevelt enthusiasm. He announ ced his candidacy for the United States Senate, won his party's nomination In a battle which old line democratic leaders In California, and went on to win the election In a three-cornered contest against republican and prohibition party opposition. To McAdoo. as the greatest achievement of his long career, however, was given the credit for fi nancing the world war as secre tary or the treasury. A chance acquaintanceship with Dr. Wood-row Wllsori, then president of Princeton University, led McAdoo ,out of his private life when he was neanng nis aum mrenaay into the very glare of the spotlight. At that time his fame rested principally JujfrJ hlsfeaJttlh flfianj-icing and constructing the liudson river tunnels after experts said it could not be done. He accomplished this In the face of opposition from leading financiers, and the struggle marked the begin ning of a long series of disputes with Wall Street. Managed Wilson Campaign When Wilson was elected eover- 1 A J 1 I t 1 I Aaooa aavice on imanaai icgisia tlon. Later when the governor appeared In line for the democratic presidential nomination, McAdoo took a leading part in organizing convention forces to the end that Wilson might be nominated. In the early part of McAdoo's service as secretary of the treas-jury he instituted the drive that 'resulted In the" creation of the i federal reserve system in an effort to wrest control of the nation's finances from Wall street. When war broke out In Europe hi 1914, McAdoo took the lead In the development of an American merchant marine to make the United States independent on the seas. But the greatest responsibility devolved upon him after the Uni ted States entered the war. Bil-j lions upon billions of dollars were I needed to finance the mobilization jof the United States as well as to 'assist the allied governments In carrying on. 1 McAdoo proposed the sale of United Scates bonds of small denomination direct to the people as .a means of raising the needed money. Again leading flnancers said it could not be done, but this opposition did not alter the deter mination of McAdoo to try It. An Issue of $2,000,000,000 of liberty .bonds was offered to the people at the start. It was over-subscribed by more than $1,000,000,000. Three other Issues were received as well. The huge task of mobollzatlon found the railroads unprepared to bear the burden placed upon them, i and the government took them over. McAdoo was selected to administer the railroads. Enemies he made during this period formed the jbulwaik -f 'h? opposition later I when he sought his party's nomination for the presidency. After the war the railroads were returned, to I private ownership. It was claimed I that their condition was far worse than when the government took them over. 1 Poverty Besets Boyhood Born October 31, 1863, near marietta. Ga., In the third year of the Civil War, McAdoo's early life was a struggle against poverty and. like many another successful American, he spent part of his boyhood sell-1 Ing newspapers.
