Public Pulse) Omaha: I think The Wor*d-Her ald has an opportunity to hasten the appreciation of minority groups if more space of more prominence would be given t osuch accomplish ments as that of the 99th United States Fighter Squadron. In a recent issue of your paper it was stated the all-Negro unit had been credited with eight of the 28 enemy planes destroyed in a dog fight over Neltuno b-achhead. Had it not been for th- fact that I am a newspaper fanatic and road practically everything of import ance, I would have overlooked this interesting fact. eW. the patriotic, bond buying Negro citizens of Omaha are grave ly concerned about the heroic ef forts of our boys, and would great ly appreciate being informed on; articles of this type in a more con spicuous column.

Hitchcock man ages to pack into it such elemert als as two killings, a suicide, an operation and even a couple of ro mances. Starring- Tallulah Bank- j head. "Lifeboat” has a featured cast consisting of William Retidix Walter Slezak. Mary Anderson, John Hodiak. Henry Hull. Heath er Angel, Hume Cronyn and Can ada Le-e. The drama of the plot heightens in intensity when the survivors pick up the Nazi sub skipper who had ordered the life boats shelled and whose own craft was sent to the bottom by a last shot from the sinking ship. Thi sub commander, played by Walter Slezak, secretly equipped with vit amin tablets and water, takes ad vantage of a temporary split am ong the lifeboat passengers to seize control. Only when the oth prs finally unite among themselv es is his po'ver broken. A doctor in civilian life, it is the Nazi skip per who performs a leg amputa tion on William Bendix, who has the role of an injured seaman.

Three explorers were bragging about the unusual climatic condi tions of places they had been. One said, “I was in a town in Alaska where it got so cold in the winter that zero was considered ideal spring weather.” The second explorer came back with, “That's nothing.
