Roberta Peters,19,
Signed for Movies

HOLLYWOOD—With virtually
every studio in Hollywood scram-
bling to sign Manhattan's newest
Cinderella, RKO Producers Jerry
Wald and Norman Krasna scored
the scoop of the year by signing
19 - year - old soprano Roberta
Peters to an exclusive long-term
contract.
The excited blue. - eyed bru-
nette, whose Metropolitan Opera
debut recently drew page one
raves from New York critics,
reports to RKO for a series of
extensive tests for her screen
role, "Debut," an original story
by Krasna, to be filmed in
Technicolor.
The Jewish daughter of a
Manhattan milliner and Bronx
shoe salesman, Roberta made
operatic history when, three
hours before curtain-time she
stepped into her Met debut for
the difficult role of Zerlina in
Mozart's opera, "Don Giovanni,"
when Nadine Conner, slated to
sing the role, was stricken with
food poisoning. Her first public
appearance brought the audience
to its feet when, as one of the
top newspaper critics excitedly
reported, Roberta "wrapped up
her concert, stage and operatic
debuts into one triumphant
package."
Roberta, whom Time magazine
describes as "cute as a Powers
model" and whose Cinderella
story Newsweek magazine point-
ed out "is a scenario good
enough for Hollywood," was bbrn
in New York City, attended
Public School No. 4 in the Bronx.
By careful saving, her parents
were' able to provide for private
tutoring in voice, ballet, dra-
matics and languages after her
graduation from Junior High
School.
Roberta was discovered by
famed Impressario Sol Hurok a
year ago when he visited her
teacher's studio and heard the
girl sing. The RKO studio con-
tract will run for seven years.

Harbor, T u e s-
day evening.

tribute is being

Michigan Zion-
ist Region.
Sonenklar David J. Ross
lost his life on March 15 when
fire broke out in his lake shore
home. He • went inside his home
to rescue his youngest daughter,
Ruth Ann, 8, who also suc-
cumbed in the blaze.
Ross was past president of
the Benton Harbor Zionist dis-
trict and a : vice-president of
the Michigari Zionist Region.
Morris M. Jacob s, regional
president, has asked that De-
troiters planning to drive to
Benton Harbor for the memorial
service should contact Jules
Doneson, regional director, WO.

that car pools may be made up

On the Record

Spotlight on Argentine
Reports from Buenos Aires are perturbing. Observers say
serious anti-Semitic developments are likely to take place there
next year. Peron is not as strong as is commonly assumed. Neither
the Army nor the Church are unreservedly behind him. The
"shirtless" have been his main strength. Recent strikes indicate
that his popularity is waning. He wants to be re-elected with an
overwhelming majority. Once more he may try to divert the ris-
ing dissatisfaction of the working class by making. the Jews , the
next scapegoats. LaPrensa was merely the first scapegoat. It was.
intended as a diversion—a test case to divert the trade unions
and to test U. S. forbearance. Peron has reason to be satisfied.

Ominous Signs
Ominous incidents: A Jewish candy manufacturer had made
some uncomplimentary remarks abOut Peron. His product was
at once declared "unsanitary" by government officials. He is
facing bankruptcy. Evita visited a Jewish jewelry store and selec-
ted the most precious gems. Later she sent the owner a receipt
thanking him for the "gift" he made to the Evita Welfare Founda-
tion. The jeweler was ruined. A Jewish industrialist who had been
"requested" to "contribute" to the Foundation made what Evita
considered too modest a donation. Sanitation officials promptly
visited his establishment. He escaped ruin by making a gift of
about $10,000. A great deal of food has been shipped to Israel
with the inscription "donated by Evita" This too is humbug.
Without exception the contributions were made by Jews. Never-
theless there exists not only a German Peronista organization
but also a Jewish Peronista association beating the drums for
Peron. Just as Mussolini took advantage of the fact that many
Jews in Italy were fascists so Peron and Evita are delighted with
the Jewish Peronistas. They help to confuse public opinion. Nazis
continue to penetrate various government departments in Argen-
tina the same situation prevails in other Latin American coun-
tries. The La Prensa affair leaves no doubt that fascism is
securing a foothold in our hemisphere Yet not one word of
criticism was voiced against Peron at the recent Inter-American
