Red Skelton and Esther Wil- Jiams are “with it,” as the éar- nival expression goes, in this lu- cious technicolor film with all ithe fabulous trappings of a mu- sical’ comedy, including the sing- the the dancing of Ann Miller. Skelton has been playing in less broad comedy lately, adding to his acting status. But in this story he is the most corny carny you’ve ever seen. He crosses his eyes, turns green after swallow- ing a hand-rolled cigarette, in- terlocks the spurs of a borrow- ed cowboy outfit, mugs fervent- ly, and installs a hundred stand- jard funnyman tricks. However that Skelton flavor is full-bodied, to match his build. . And speaking of bodies, the most celestial one in a bathing suit is of course Esther Wil- liams. She is part of the carnival act in which she sits on a swing | over a tank of water in a rasber- |ry sherbert suit, labled “Dunk | Me.” If a baseball hits a target jmark, the swing seat parts and {she is dunked.

God Pan has been dipping in the rainbey to color milady’s hair. I'm not kidding, the guy is go- ing crazy! He especially likes to tint the ends of blonde curls in pastels, and I saw one gold- en charmer with a deep pur- Fle streak clear across her head! I especially like the gold or silver streak he effects. Move over Grandma, your fav- orite daughter just turned chartreuse! Ah, that Louis!

What I wish to say here and | now, is that the silver creation | was also by that Key West | artiste who holds forth daily at Donald‘s Beauty Salon, one | Louis Marson. I know, I know, ; Im probably going ‘way over- board about Salons in general and Louis in particular. but a gal can't visit those places too often if she can possibly spare a dollar. If I can have a hairdo like Mrs. Wilson, I'm for turn- ing white (or silver) overnight. x kw ok Make your waffles a day in advance, Heat them in the oven (450°F.) - for 5 minutes just be- fore serving.
