Richards-Martin Dance Studio Presents Evening Show at Hollywood Canteen Hollywod Canteen means glamour and romance to thousands of our soldiers and sailors and airmen who there have experienced the hospitality of great and small movie actors and actresses and other experienced entertainers of the theatrical world. It was with a special thrill then that last Thursday evening 33 students from the Richards-Martin Dance studio on North Palm street presented an hour and a quarter show to the hundreds of service-men who packed the canteen and roared their appreciation with wave upon wave of applause. It was a thrill that our own local boys and girls and those from other nearby communities will not soon forget. When the annual dance pageant was presented in Anaheim late in June by Lenoir Richards Martin and Anna L. Richards, talent scouts were present from Hollywood and it was one of them who carried word back to the movie capital of the beauty and talent of the young performers. Soon an invitation was sent to the dance studio asking that the special production acts and some of the solo numbers be presented at the canteen. So successful was the show last week that Mrs. Martin has been asked to have these young people appear in a return engagement in three months' time. They are also to present shows at the Braille Institute in Los Angeles and the county fair at Huntington Beach in the near future. During the performance petite 9-year-old Josephine Courreges was given ovation after ovation for the charming, vivacious manner in which she sang three songs and 12-year-old Diane Schroeder of Fullerton was also widely acclaimed for her dance specialties. Miss Edith Browne sang two numbers, "Out of This World" and "What More Could a Woman Do?" while the dancing Hargrove sisters, Marilyn and Bernice, proved extremely popular. Among the 28 members presented were the beautifully costumed acts, "American Beauties," "Hat Box," "Spanish Act," "The African Act" and the "Stair Case Number." Appearing in the show were Ann Avon Chew, Mary Lou Mennes, Janice Sargeant, Patty McDonald, Norma Moreno, Joanne Ter Beest, Joan Smith, Patsy Riley, Helga Schugt, Nancy Hancock. Kay Kroeger, Vivian Cox, Sally Sherwood, Elleen Rohan, Joannie Menges, Diane Schroeder, Snooks Crilly, Lucy Mazza, Jeannette Weisbroad, Marilyn and Bernice Hargrove, Josephine Courreges, Edith Browne, Marilyn Gilmore, Cheryl Krutel, Claudia Johnson, Betty Mennes, Phylliss Eaken, Virginia Renaker, Peggy Fontaine, Wanda Waterman and Gloria and Betty Saunders. While no great stars were present at the show the young entertainers delighted in seeing in the audience such well known personas as Sidney Greenstreet, William Bendix, Charles Denton, Guy Kibbee, Jr., Marie Ospene Ka and Charlie Chan's son. Maxine Semon, who has just completed the starring in Republic's new picture, "Sporting Chance," was mistress of ceremonies. She is now working with Ann Rutherford in a new movie, "Two o'Clock Courage."
