Clad in chaps, spur-bedecked boots and ten-gallon hats, Univer- sal’s star comedians hit a new comedy high in “Ride 'Em Cow- boy,” which opened yesterday at the Capitol Theatre. The story takes Abbott and Cos- tello from their berths as hot-dog vendors at a Long Island rodeo, shanghais them into Arizona and establishes them as cowpokes on a dude ranch. They become en- | tangled in a mesh of feminine pul- chritude, wild steers, bucking bron- cos and last, but not least, a tribe of Indians. And that's not all. Run- ning throughout the offering are two romantic threads. One fea- tures eye-filling talented Anne | Gwynne with Dick Foran and Johnny Mack Brown.

Bombs don’t ask your mame or the names of yeur children, either. In this war, as in no other in history, we are all targets. Blackouts merge soldiers and civilians alike. “War is hell” . . for all of us. And it is costly . . . for all of us. Who's going to pay the ? Not only for the guns, but for the tanks and ships and alanes our boys must have to smash the Axis? Who? Why, all of us . . . you and me and the man next door. Because we are all in this war, and because blood and tears and sweat don’t mean a thing if they do not come from everybody. Everybody must put every dime and dollar he can spare into . Bonds and Stamps, even if it means going without som else . . . realizing that we are apt to go without everything, unless we win. Remember you can start buying Bonds by buy- ing Stamps for as little as 10 cents and that you get a $25 Bond (maturity value) for only $18.75.
