Stadium SaturdayWar comes to Michigan next Saturday night!On July 25, the United States Army will draw up its battle lines over the University of Detroit campus for an all-out pro-difttion presenting a picture of War's destruction, in its own War Show, 1942 style.Nothing in modern war is left to the imagination.Tanks, dark monsters of battle, and tank destroyers will roar in an echoing rumble that will shake the terrain in almost deafening reverberation as if toWAS DEAF.n«lt;iNOW HiARS CLOCK TICK▲ H Boatchenon.

W. T Bals. the Army War Show rc-; veals the Army of the United States in action for nine nights, starting at 8 30 p. m., in the University of Detroit Stadium, Livernois at McNichols Road.It may be well to point out, however, that the Army War Show is more — far more — than an evening s entertainment. It is spectacular and thrilling, but the Army War Show, as no 1 show* ever before conceived or offered to the public, is a show with a MEANING.The Army War Show is a golden opportunity for every citizen — perhaps the only one he will have — to become better acquainted with his Army. It’s an event which will bring to every taxpayer full realization of how his money is being invested for his own personal safety in monster, mechanized machines of w'ar, how' his sons and friends are being trained to fight in his defense. The Army War Show’ is a dramatic lesson in pride of Country, pride of Citizenship and pride of Army.Again, those men and women who are w'orking so mightily in the War production effort will find in the Army War Show the reason for what they are doing. As the creators of the tools by which victory will be won, they will sec those tools in action, realize their deadly precision and potency. The guns, tanks, planes and equipmentused in the War Show', training equipment, to be sure, but none the less effective, will prove to be the inspiration for added attention to that extra detail, the detail which may mean life or death to the machine's operator, victory or defeat in the bat-' iFinally, although war is the most inhuman of practises, the Army War Show' is being presented for the most humane of all causes — to aic* the women and children placed in actual need or dire want by the pursuance of it.B0(AtyofecstltoRe
