Kodiak Diary
(continued from Dace 10)
all Army.
You may see the world if you
join the Navy, but it looks like
you can’t be a father-of-the-year.
You no doubt remember the
story about the boy who wrote
his girl a letter, proclaiming that
his love was so great that he
would climb the highest mount
ain, swim the deepest ocean, and
travel through fire for her, and
then added a postscript to the
effect that “if it doesn’t rain I’ll
be over tonight”.
A serviceman stationed at the
base at one time was certainly
not the writer of that. For if
love was ever proved by actions,
this fellow proved it.
Here’s what lie did. It was
back in the days of greater re
strictions on servicemen coming
to town, and this boy decided he
must see his girl o tener than
the restrictions allowed.
So he would walk out the high
way from the base almost as far
as the guard house gate, which
used to be located differently
than it is now, then he would
take off into the brush and down
to the beach. And then to get
across a cove he would go into 1
the water, fully clothed, and)
swim to the other shore.
What’s more, these swimming
episodes tools place in November
and December. An officer who'
once found him on the road re
turning to the base, dripping
wet, took him in his car, heard
his story and did nothing about
it. The boy was described as be
ing as blue as his uniform.
If ever love should have tri
umphed, that one should. And it
did. The boy and girl were later
married, he was transferred and
she followed him to the States.
If they have children, and if
the father tells them how import
ant it is to learn to swim, we can
imagine his voice will have the
ring of authority that comes
from experience.
Then again, maybe he won’t
want them to learn to swim.

“Bathing Beauty
Zestful Color Musical
For sheer entertainment you 11
have to go a long way to,,top
“Bathing Beauty”, the Techni
color musical starring Red Skel
ton with Esther Williams, which
MGM presents at the Lyric Sun
day and Monday.
Here 13 a film chockful of fun,
color, music, beautiful girls and
everything else that adds up to
the most delectable kind of mov
ie fare. Skelton, as the only man
enrolled in a girls’ college, is at
his comedy best, and Miss Wil
liams is beautiful and tatented.
Basil Rathbone deserts his
villainous roles to play a Broad
way producer and shows his un
doubted versatility in his hand
ling of comedy lines and situa
tions. The imposing cast also has
Ethel Smith, the Hit Parade org
anist, who makes her film debut;
Carlos Ramirez, who sings with
the best of the baritones, and
Bill Goodwin, of radio fame. Top
these with Harry James and Xav
ier Cugat and you have enter
tainment par excellence.
“Bathing Beauty” shows Tech
nicolor at its luscious best, topped
by a water carnival of rare
beauty.
