A true holiday spirit prevailed as the gymnasium was transformed to represent Santa’s workshop, two [huge Christmas trees, gaily decorat- | ed, were placed at either side of the | orchestra pit, with the ceiling liter- ally one mass of colored lights and the punch was served from a clever- ly constructed igloo on one side of | the dance floor. | Main attraction of the evenings intermission was the famed beth Walk,” with dancers being a companied at the piano by Miss Olga Paul, while Miss Marian Dob- | | son “swung the vocal.” “Strutters” included Dorothy Larsen, Lillian Hendrickson, Doris | J hran, Mavis Nicula, Henry Jim Hickey, Paul Coke and Alex Miller. Another attraction during inter- mission was a baton-twirling act, presented by William Roff, and dur- ing the course cof the evening Miss Lannore Kaufmann accompanied by the orchestra, gave the warning | “Santa Claus is Coming to Town.” REVOLUTIONARY TINTING EFFECT HAILED IN FILM Eddie Cantor af Coliseum, Sunday in ""Ali Baba Goes to Town” Fun-making Eddie Cantor and hit-making Twentieth Century-Fox have combined their talents for the first time and really go to town > comedy king of screen and ) stars in the most hi-de-hilari- | ous, extrava-glorious entertainm either have ever made.
