4t The State. .
Red Skelton's corkscrew pan, the
twinkling tapping toes of Eleanor
Powell and buzzsaw-voiced Bert Lahr
will hit the State Theatre today in
MGM's nuttily nautical musical,
"Ship Ahoy."
To the tunes of Tommy Dorsey and
his orchestra, a boatload of assorted
funsters, romancers and screwballs
take a musical cruise to thettropics
on a wave of seven swing hits.
Dorsey and his band feature "Last
Call for Love," "Poor You" and "I'll
Take Tallulah" in this picture, while
Red Skelton and his "I dood it" pro-
vide comedy highlights. Virginia
O'Brien joins her less sedate col-
leagues in this two-hour film riot.
"Ship Ahoy," to be shown at the
State until August 1, has been di-
rected by- Edward Buzzell. Jack
Cummings produced this seagoing
epic of three men and a boatload of
girls while Harry Clark was responsi-
ble for the script.
Intricacies of the plot are spun
around the attempts of writer Mer-
ton K. Kibble to get away from the
nerve-shattering deeds of his mental
offspring. Kibble, butcheringly por-
trayed by Red Skelton, winds up
chasing a dance troupe to Cuba in his
attempted relaxation.
In addition to her dancing duties,
Miss Powell plays the role of Tallu-
lah Winters, star of the troupe, who
thinks she is carrying a military
secret for the U.S. Within her .packed
scanties however, there lies a mag-
netic mine which agents of a not-to-
be-mentioned power planted on her.
If you want to know how MGM
managed to get a crew of chorus
girls, two comedians and a magnetic
mine into one picture, go to the
State. The doublecrossing press
agents wouldn't tell us.

At The Michigan ...
Opening a four-day run today, "The
Male Animal," will be shown at the
usual hours and in the fine style for
which the Michigan Theatre project-
ing machines are so justly famous.
Press releases for the film inform
the reader that the setting is a "typi-
cal midwestern university with en-
thusiastic scholars and equally en-
thusiastic alumni," a phrase whose
peppy professionalism shouldn't dis-
courage potential customers if they
keep reminding themselves that the
play from which the production was
taken was written by James Thurber,
easily the funniest man in America,
The general idea of the story is a
little something about a professor
whose sense of right and wrong gets
him into rather thick trouble with
the administration of the university.
The fact that his wife is becoming
rather chummy with an old class-
mate and ex-football hero, and that
the latter seems likely to move in,
as it were, for the duration doesn't
exactly make him the Cheery Soul
Around the Old Homestead.
To quote further the lucid prose of
the press releases, "The situations be-
come more breezy, and humorously
involved as the picture progresses,
building up to a climax that is sure
to have you howling with laughter."
oor a change, we can believe the
press releases. Thurber's in the back-
ground somewhere, and the picture
is good.
Inter-Racial Group
Will Conduct Panel
MeetingWednesday
A panel on "Why Fight Racial
Discrimination Now" will head the
program of the next to last summer
meeting of the Inter-Racial Asso-
ciation at 8 p.m. Wednesday in the
Union.
Prof. Richard Fuller of the sociol-
ogy department will chair the group,
leading a discussion on the reasons
for an immediate campaign against
discrimination, the means to fight
it, and the effects of such an effort
upon post-war reconstruction.
Other members of the panel are
Charles R. A. Smith, formerly with
the district attorney's office in De-
troit, member of the Catholic Inter-
Racial Congress, and now a petty
officer in the Navy; Gloster Current,
secretary of the National Associa-
tion for Advancement of Colored
People, and Richard Haikkenen,
