Bombless Blackpool ...Britain’s Brightest

moved to Blackpool, 50 mils north of ‘Liverpool on tho Irish Channel. .

Today the little town is Eng-

land's brlgbest spot.

In one week Beatrice L-ittie and Vic Oliver revived three one- act plays from Noel Coward's "To- night at. 8:30," Robert Donut pre- sented "The Devil's Disciple," Jack Hylton headlined a stage show at the Winter Garden. and the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company started a run. Even the London Philharmonic, with Sir Henry Wood directing, showed up and gave a series o! concerts

The key to this bocm is the fact the Blackpool is believed to be the most quiet place in England And it. ls, too, from the standpoint o! bombs actually dropped. There

are plenty of alert signals, but seldom a raid.

The first night or two spent here I had difficulty sleeping because the town was so normal. No whist- ling bombs. no anti-aircraft pun firing outside the hotel window . . , ."Peace, It's Wonderful."

The most impressive; feature about this new British entertainment center, however, is the people. Even the several thousand evacuees from London and the other industrial centers of England have caught on and now everyone walks like they're going some place. though there is no place to go once you've reached Blackpool.

The place is strictly a young town, with more clean-cut. boys and girls to the square block than in pcsslbly any other England city today.

Those that do not live in Black- pool travel by bus. street car and automobile every night in the week from the surrounding countryside, Plﬁkinq the three giant be , the ice skating rink. the theaters

and motion picture houses.
