Speak for Yourself 108 (Continued from page 17) Must we endure this as pastime and amusement just so movies can be up to date? Come on — give us smiles; stories of happiness and laughter. We need them now. Audrey Blair, Oak Park, 111. $1.00 PRIZE Seeing Red I'M wondering if Red Skelton puts such a strain on everyone else's sense of humor as he does on mine. Surely he can't be the lame-brain he portrays on the radio and screen. As far as I'm concerned, Red Skelton didn't "dood" it; he "overdood" it! And I'm no sourpuss, either. I enjoy a joke as well as the next person. La Vance Davis, Dallas, Tex. HONORABLE MENTION SHE is more beautiful than Hedy Lamarr, her figure is trimmer than Betty Grable's and she has more personality than Betty Hutton. Her name is Mary Ann and she does a magnificent job as a beautiful flying fortress in "Air Force." I'd love to know where Warners has been hiding John Ridgley and James Brown. Right now I'd like to make a suggestion for a future picture — the story of the Flying Tiger hero Jack Newkirk with John Ridgely in the title role. Sue D. Anna, Lexington, Ky. I WOULD like to bring people's attention to the subject of babies at the movies. Please let's be more tolerant of them. There are many young mothers whose husbands are in the service, and where can they go for entertainment on their limited budget and with less criticism than to the movies. Too, let's not forget the war worker's wife who must spend many lonely hours while her husband works unless she can bundle the baby to the movies. Mrs. Lois Simpson, Los Angeles Cal. TO MISS HUTTON in "Star Spangled I Rhythm": If you did not think you had "landed" before you truly know that you have now — and with a big bang! Congratulations. To the earnest workers of the picture — all deserve congratulations. What a difference and how refreshing to leave a picture show with a lilt in the heart! Mrs. M. Roberts, Farmville N. C. CINCE the death of Joe E. Brown's son ** in an airplane crash, Mr. Brown has brought smiles to our American soldiers all over the world. Just recently I received a letter from a friend stationed in Alaska. He stated, "If ever there's a guy that can make you laugh and still think of home, that's Joe E. Brown, a great American." June Baker, St. Paul Minn. I'VE just seen "You Were Never Lovelier." Cugat and his orchestra were enchanting; Astaire's dancing was super; Hayworth and her glamour were disgusting. Her waistline and legs both detract from her beauty because they're so darn thin. If she'd turn sidewise I'd bet that teacher would mark her absent! Jolyn Levy, Chicago, 111. | DON'T often speak out of school, but this time I think I really have something to say. It's about that fellow called Jack Carson. That guy is going places, or I should have said he's done went in "The Hard Way." Myrtle Key Mason, Jacksonville, Fla. AS a rule, I never get enthusiastic enough over a star to put forth the effort to write a letter. However I feel I must write this to the new Dutch actor, Philip Dorn, because he is so completely unique and because he is the most interesting actor I have ever seen. I feel sure that if he were given the right kind of roles his talent and versatility would win him the popularity he deserves. There may be plenty of Robert Taylors and Tyrone Powers, but there is just one Philip Dorn! Betty Aldrich, Austin, lex.
