BESSEMER BUREAU !
 THE AGE-HERALD !
Bessemer, AIa., Aug. 70


 Work was started this week on the construction of the negro high school auditorium, which Is also to serve as community center. This auditorium is being built by Holley & Davis of Birmingham, the contract being recently let, and is to be a unit of the recently completed negro high school on Sixth avenue and Twenty seventh street
 The auditorium will seat 500 be- sides the seating capacity of the stage, which will be large. It is the largest negro municipal auditorium second unit of the school, the first unit with a seating capacity of 200 having recently been completed. The third unit of the school will be built later along the Fifth avenue side and the completed school will occupy the larger portion of block.
 The auditorium will cost $2o,o0o, which will bring the total construc- tion cost of the school thus far to s75,000. State education officials have complimented the Bessemer board of education on the complete ness of the school plant and many educators from other Alabama towns have visited 1t with a view to du- plicating the plans elsewhere.
 The board of education, together with the cooperation Of the Cham Der of Commerce plan to carry out program of community work among the negroes in order to en- courage them to use the auditorium as a civic center. The school will be ready for occupancy in September while the auditorium will be com pleted by mid-term.

STUDIOS INTERESTED

LOS ANGELES, August 2o.-Several motion picture producers are plan ming to send representative to Chi cago to see George A. Spoors in- vention. which Is said to have made third dimension motion pictures a speciality.
 Although Spoor's invention was the chief topic around Hollywood Mon day. producers did not greet the news with any great excitement. If. upon arrival in Chicago, they find the new process is all that is claimed, how ever, they will be compelled to accept 1t, as the third dimension may reVo- lutionize the film business.
 The chief value of the new device will be in scenic pictures, it was said Monday. As the latest practice in filming dramatic productions is to get away from unnecessary detail, which a third dimension will only tend to magnify, some feature pie ture producers were skeptical of the value of the process to them at this time
 Spoor, if his invention is complete, has won a race among several in- ventors who have been seeking a workable method of projecting mo- tion pictures in relief. Several cum bersome methods have been tried out here in recent years, including one which required the audience to wear red and green spectacles, and another in which spectators looked through device with revolving shutters. None of these were practicable.

EXPLAINS CONTEST LAW

FolIoWing conference Monday be- tween the representatives of District 4ttorney hennemar and President John A. Smith and P. H. Tyler of the
 IHsIey Association of Business Men, an understanding was reached rela- i've to the awarding of prizes by mat association. It was announced sunday that the contests must be stopped as they were a violation of the law relative to the mails. MT. smith and Mr. Tyler, after a consult tatlon, announced that the law had been explained to them thoroughly ana at the meeting of the association Tuesday morning a full explanation of what could and could not be done would be made to the members.
 It was stated that the district at torney explained that the mere giV- ing away of tickets on purchases did not constitute violation of postal or other regulations How ever, the publication In newspapers of the contests, elaborating upon the means, giving the details of the plan and such constituted a violation of the postal laws and regulations. The officials were advised that they could issue circulars or other printed matter regarding the contests, but that nothing should be printed which they knowingly would permit $ This point having been cleared up 1t was stated that. the advice of the district attorney would be followed hereafter. The merchants will take the same steps as heretofore regard ing the plans they have been fol- lowing for some time, but there will not be printed anything in the press as advertisements or news matter which would violate the law.
 The members of the association in Ensley and similar organizations in Vivian, Pratt City and Fairfield were much disturbed over the an nouncement and awaited word Mon day from MT. Smith and Mir Tyler with great impatience. The amica ble adjustment of the situation was pleasing to the merchants and 1t is expected that with the notifications by the government agents, the plans as heretofore will be car fnrNuord
