Before their night club. date, however, the boys and y in a school concert in niment of the great violin- ef Altman, portrayed by Fritz Feld. Altman plays on a Strad- ivarius worth $10,000 and a couple of crooks are in the audience with a well-thought-out plan to steal it. But our hero, Henry, picks up Altman’s violin instead of his own, when the concert. is over, and the crooks get Henry's worthless fiddle instead of the Strad. Henry un- | knowingly uses the precious violin in his night club engagement and is forced to leave it behind when the place is raided. ' You can see the possibilities for | fun provided by this particular ; predicament of Henry's.

The enemy is retreating westward of the two swift flowing deep rivers. The scene of today’s hot battle is the ground south of the Musurian Lake’s hub, where it falls into the Vistula north of Warsaw and Bie- brza in the tributary of the Narew west and northwest of Bialystok. There are no indications that the Russians .have crossed either river, but if not, then these operations are in the offing. This smash at the Germans left flank stands out as one of the best maneuvers of the war for.Stalin who always plays the game like a crafty boxer. The blow was thrown in after the enemy forces had moved their main de- fense to the East Prussian and Lithuanian frontier. | R s — MRS.
