HOLLYWOOD, Cal. June II
With hntli,,nr c,,nnr,c hnoii


HOLLYWOOD, Cal. June 49,
IL With bathing queens, beauty
queens. college queens and various
other kinds of queens crowding
the papers these days, I decided
to give Hollywood a break" and
pick a few cinema queens.
There has been no official
stamp placed upon these queens
and nobody gave me any author
ity to pick them. But I'll stack
them up agai lSt anybody movie
land has to offer at any time and
any place.
Following is the writer's choice
for MoYiana's crowns:
Mary Pickford. queen Of blends
Lupe Velez, queen of brunets.
Sue Carol, queen Of flappers.
Billie Dove, queen of beauty.
Mary Pickford long has been
known as Americas sweetheart. "
Being a blond, why shouldn't she
also be queen of the tow-heads?
THE long years Mary has spent
Il at the very top of the movie
pinnacle are alone sufficient to
rank her above any other blond
in the studio hamlet.
In addition, she is not surpassed
by any when 1t comes to attrac-
tiveness or beauty.
Although still comparatively
new in celluloidia, the fiery, tenn
peramental Lupe Velez has no
peer among the brunets.
Coal black treSSes and extreme
ly dark brown eyes give the Mex
lean actress dashing appeal that
is lacking among her sister bru
nets.
Lupe has done little to gain
fame to date, but she seems des-
tined to be one of our big stars of
the future.
A ND now comes the at" girl
"A as queen of the flaming
haired fair sex. Clara Bow stands
all by herself in Hoilywood's null
titude of screen actresses. There
never has and never will be an
other like her.
She is the girl who has made
Moviana's red heads famous. 1t
is not Clara's flaming tresses
alone that caused her to be Sc
lected. Her striking personality
also figured largely.
If. any girl in cinemaland has a
reason Tor being high hat
which none of them have-she
would be Sue Carol, the most typ
ical of f1appers.
At the tender age of 20, Sue
has in her own name more wealth
than the majority of our biggest
stars will ever possess.
And she has made extremely
rapid strides from a little known
actress to a very popular fea-
tured player in the last twelve
months.
But Sue still Is the same sweet,
unsophisticated girl who dropped
off the train from Chicago early
in 1927.
Billy Dove has been termed the
girl who was too beautiful" And
there is a lot of truth in those
words.
Billie is almost too perfect to be
human. She is absolutely camera
proof-that is, she can be photo
graphed equally well from any
angle.
Consequently, this f1awless
creature must be named Queen
of Beauty.

Smut Prevention Week

Negligence in the proper care and
treatment of seed wheat threatens
to displacc North Dakota as first
among the states of the union in
quality wheat production, Governor
A. G. Sorlie said here today in a
proclamation designing this as
smut prevention week.
The governor urged that only
properly treated seed be planted in
an effort to reduce the enormous loss
to grain growers caused annually by
smut. Dealers in copper carbonat.
and formaldehyde were asked to fur
nish these chemicals to farmers for
seed treating purposes at reasonable
prices.
Reports to the agricultural depart
ment show noticeable reduction in
wheat smut losses in those districts
where campaigns for smut control
were pushed last year, the procla-
nation said.
Unless steps are taken to remove
smct spores from seed grain, the
governor said, the percentage of in
lection will be even larger this year
than in the past.
