...integrity of the German front. The one way the Red Army can decisively smash the German position in Russia is to crash through the great lateral Smolensk-Kursk-Kharkov-Crimea railway system into relatively ill-defended positions behind it. This week the drive was still young, the results unclear. In any case it kept thousands of Germans pinned down...
Reunion in France (M.G.M.) is a Joan Crawford version of the fall of France. As history is made, Miss Crawford looks big-eyed, weeps, sighs, registers disillusionment, at length throws her 'elegantly gowned self into the French underground movement-all with unclear effect.

Without comment the Beards, stubbornly opposed to imperialism, to internationalism, to war for unclear ideals, reprint President Roosevelt's brooding question of April 14, 1942: "I want a name for the war.

The result of bad placing of the microphone is that only the orchestra records well, while the vocal parts are always confused and unclear. The soloists sound as though coming out of a distant fog, and are often completely drowned out by the orchestra. The chorus similarly, when it sings softly, becomes only an indistinct blur; when it opens up the stops, it creates a great huge blaze of speaker-shattering noise. All this...
