 FAMOUS PUDDINGS
That Named After "YOrkShire''
 Popular Dish

London. July g GED - Yorkshire pudding. served with roast beef. is the most popular of all made dish les enjoyed by the people Of Great Britain. It also is used as a dessert, (which is the way the Prince of Wales likes it best.

PREDICTS RAPID FILM PRODUCTION
Scientific Progress In Industry
 Is Expected

Hollywood, July Lp) - Scientific progress in motion picture produc- tion is rapidly doing away with the idea that pictures can be made only in Hollywood or where it is sunny, Clarence G. Badger ayers.
 Badger who has directed many pictures for Gloria Swanson, Will Rogers and Raymond Griffith, made some predictions, with regard 10 what the making of movies a few Iyears hence will be.
 Quick transportation will enable movie companies to reach places where nature or possibly man, al- ready has prepared the scenery for Isome desired set. North Pole pie lures will be made at the North Pole and not on some studio set in southern California with artificial IsnoW and trick polar bears.
 Improved cameras will make the cumbersome settings and equipment Pictures will be made in real homes, real stores real mines and so on.
 There will be movie studios in many large cities. Herbert Brcnon, another director, joined Badger to predict that the movie studio of the not distant future will be like the sudio of any other artist, quiet, secluded place where designing and brain work are done.

 Other Items of Interest in Town
 Angelo M. Paonessa, former may or of New Britain, was involved in an automobile accident yesterday afternoon, when his automobile col lided with a machine operated by Jack Ryan of East Berlin. The crash occurred at Kelsey's Corner and the Ryan machine was consid- erably damaged.
 The Ryan car, as a result of the crash, was sent to the garage with the front wheels, wish-bone and springs smashed, while the Paonessa car was only slightly damaged. It is reported that eX-Mayor Paonessa admitted he had been at fault in making a de turn at this corner, moving directly in the path of the approachh.g car. Both parties came lb dll ds GtIltlll pli NIlt dtllireoN ctlI4 there was no argunl mt.
 The corner has long been one of the danger apots between Berlin street and Middletown, due to the fact that the old Kelsey homestead hides the view of approaching cars, from both directions. The house Is situated directly on the corner and l. J-,, 1A Nothing has been done to make the corner safe for traffic. At one time the propC ition of moving the house back so as to give an unobstrLcted view, was considered, but the costs prohibited such an undertaking.
 A warning signal has been rec commended for the Kelsey crossing and it is probable that the town off, fcials will take up the matter soon. It is believed that a crossing light at night and {. large Danger" sign In the daytime, would go long way toward alleviating the difficulty.
 Many marrow escapes have occur red at the corner. since it is neces- sary to take tie corner very wide if a car is proceeding at a rapid rate of speed.

Hiram Dempsey. Father of

of Sons First Bout

tall, cmaciated gentleman we'll along
in the fifties, with grazing hair and
mustache, sat on cane-bOttom chair
in bare-walled living room up here
in the mountains and frightened the
strings on his old violin
II was Hiram Dempsey. father of
the heavyweight champion. and he
was preparing to give his nightly re-
cital of hill-bi1ly airs, which have
come to be just as much part Of the
training camp routine as his brawny
sons roadworh and sparring.
"Pop" Dempsey. as Jack always
refers to him. fiddled through a
composition Of agonizing length that.
to the inexpert ear, ran mainly to
"awks' and seeks"
"How'd you like that" he asked,
finishing with triumphant smile.
"Finc,' lied bravely
"I'm the only fiddler in the world
that plays that piece. wrote it my
self and it's called wild Goose.
Couldn't you hear the geese in it?

ever been within a mile Of the ami
mails could possibly fail to distn-
guish the remarkable impersonation,

rison Dempsey, as the champion was
christened, was virtually born

that he, weighed IA pounds and look
ed 'jess like John l.. Sullivan 'spe-
cially in the shoulders!
'.Why you never saw John L. Sulli-
van, Pop" cut in the champion. How
can you say l looked like him?
"Wcll, you looked like him anyhow"
-insisted the kindly old man. nodaing
his head in an autOcratic way, which
indicated there was nothing else to
be said on that matter.
"Pop" says tn" first fight--the
first good fight-he RENE mbers Jack
had was against neighbor's boy,
who was bigger and older and every
thing than our kid"
The boys name was John Daniels
and the fight occurred in the Demp-
seys' home town, Manassa. Colo. The
families Of both contestants gathered
around in q circle to witness the hat
tie. For four or five minutes 1t was
nm even tussle.
"Ritc him, john" yelled the elder
Daniels. who apparently had antici-
mated nm easier triumph over the
smallef Dempsey. John turned his
head to look at his father and. as he
did, young Dempsey clipped him on
the chin and knocked him out.
Bet Against Son
"Pop" then told how Jack drilled
into the professional ring. The two
II them were working with steam
shoyel crew in Utah. They had been
there for three days. On the fourth
day Jack dropped his shovel and said
