ENTR’ACTE.
It happened in the Y.M.C.A. recreation hut, where, a soul-stirring picture in technicolor, ‘Aloma of the South Seas,’ featuring Dorothy Lamour, was being shown.
Aloma had wandered up to her house after spending about a thousand perfectly good feet of film in one of those romantic, colourful, tropical pool scenes with her island lover. Her housekeeper, an aged aunt, was obviously displeased with Aloma’s absence from home and said in a scolding voice, “Aloma! You’ve been gone three hours. Where have you been? ” “ Oh, just down by the pool,” serenely said the glamorous Aloma. “ Oh, Aloma,” wailed her aunt, “ Not with a man hope! Were you?— was his name? ” Just then the side door of the Y.M.C.A. was flung open, and to the audience of W.A.A.C.’s and men, all awaiting Aloma’s answer with hushed expectancy, came the voice of Sergeant Bartlett : “ Bombardier Murphy ! Bombardier Murphy ! You’re wanted.”
