Spring chapeaus on display in Sully’s Bakery shop windows look good enough to eat. As a matter of fact, that's ex- actly what would be apt to happen to any of the bonnets, purchased and carried home by milday for Easter Parade wear. It's a weird world, all right, where spring bonnets as cute as an Easter cake, turn out to be Easter <akes, complete with brims, ribbons and veils. Cakes, which have been selling fast, were made and decorated by carson Lawrence and Eunice Ja- cobs. - - BICYCLES at MAD- 46 U SCHWINN SEN'S, RED SKELTON AT CAPITOL THEATRE < IN FAST COMEDY “The Fuller Brush Man,” a Co- lumbia comedy starring Red Skels ton and Janet Blair, will arrive at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
