Many members of the Universal

In all California there are but
three places where rolling sand
dunes can be found, such as are
characteristic of the Algerian des-

the sand dunes on the edge of the
ocean near Guadalupe, California,
halfway between Los Angeles and
San Francisco. This is a high

the High Sierras, in either case a
cold, high breeze which settles
down to steady pace at dusk.
At nights the company nearly
froze. Six and eight thiclnesses
of blankets were used by the en-
tire cast to keep the chill out of
their bones. At early morning
when they left for the location the
air was crisp and the desert was
covered with frost having the ap-
pearance of newly-fallen snow. But
the sun quickly dispelled the frost
and by nine o'clock the heat of the
desert rivalled anything in the Sa-
hara.
Two weeks were spent there by
the company, including the cast
and some 500 "extras" CARRIED in
the colorful costume of the For

this popular type that has been put to
a test in a demoralized stock market.
A number of widely separated issues
that had acted badly on previous days
showed substantial gains early in the
session. Among them were Dodge 6s,
which rallied 134 points; Missouri Pa
cific as, up "a: New orleans Public
Service SIS. up 19s, and Cuba Cane IS.
which rose points from the years
lowest of IS. Not all of them, however,
held their gains.
The feature of the convertible group
was again International Telephone 4 IS
which sold at approximately their pre-
vious high price and were up 81, points
when the stock showed a gain of 10
points. Public Service of New Jersey
opened points higher and Anaconda
Copper S points up. Allegheny Corpora
