Mayor Mariana Gomez has thus de-

gongs, bells and horns, punctuated by
the warning yells Of cabbies and ac-
cented by loud speakers placed in the
doorways Of stores and theaters. The
whole is themed by the squeaking 81

New York, Aug. 3d. have come
back just in time TO find Broadway
in its annual theatrical turmoil.
This season. however, the eleventh
hour stampede to get the drama
under way is slightly more hectic than
usual, due to a procrastinating policy
unique in a highway that has the
reputation Of gambling on anything
once. Broadway has been something
like a pretty maid who has been
waiting uncertainty for a boy friend,
and at the last minute has had to
leap into her frills and lip stick when
he finally arrived.
To be sure, a dozen or SO of the
best producers were out in the Holly
woods disguised as experts for the
talking screen drama. Being well
paid. they took their time about COM
Ing home.
Meanwhile, the city swcltercd In
June and July heat and the number
OF actual productions OF the big
street shrunk to a final survival Of
Journeys End" Street Scene Let
Us Be Gay" Camel Through a
Needles Eye THE Little Show and
q couple of hardy musical shows.
It so happens that Labor Day has
been taken as the official date when
Broadway is presumed to get away in
full swing for another theatrical year.
And here 1t is, the very eve of that
date.
Wherefore, the scene painters and
designers have ben standing on their
heads for weeks. The producers have
been going about with that foolish
.ook of a child late for school. The
calls for actors have been sounded
and the rehearsals have been going
On at fever heat. Girlies are tripping
up and down half-lit stages and half
promoters have been rushing around
wondering when and If the old zipp
and zamm will get into things.

three little Miller boys go every day.

Well. they don't make it safe. Be-
sides, what If the water is low? It's
deep enough to drown a 1~O-year-old
Kid. Old Barney Sudds got drowned
there last year."
He was drunk and he got drowned
above the dam. He showed himself off
IN a boat without any oars and went
over. The boys fish below the dam. It's
not deep. Johnny's a good swimmer.
Didn't you ever go fishing there when
you were a boy? You talk about it
enough
No Quick Decision
The conversation see-saWed up and
down, back and forth, all evening.
Johnny went to bed, and still his
father wouldn't make up his mind.
Bud and Chuck had sat out on the
steps for hours awaiting the decision,
then departed in disgust.
Buds mother called up. Chuck's
father called up. It's perfectly SAFE"
they urged. Besides, Dave Jones is
going along, and he's IT.
Well--he would see, Johnny's father
would.
Johnny tossed all night. He scarcely
slept at all.
Johnny's mother went on quietly
with her mending. She knew! She
knew all along that he intended to
let Johnny 60. He was just playing
heavy father.
At 7.30 next morning he announced
his ultimatum. Yes, he supposed it
was all right. Johnny could 60.

Picking up a few tid-bits of gossip,

learn that David Belasco is said to

Knapp for his own beauty prize.
Dorothy has for years been Earl Car

and has been known chiefly for her
music show appearances. Hence the

Ninc-year-old Marshal Newton. the

apolis. one of the Hoover secretaries,
| received on his birthday a large sur
! prise package from Mrs. Hoover. The
boy was in a hospital recovering from
the alnputation Of a leg necessitated
by an accident which recently stirred
the capitals sympathy.
One of Marslals presents was a
board with pegs and holes and Mrs.
Hoover explained that this was a puz-
zle which had kept Colonel Charles
Augustus Lindbereh guessing nearly
an entire afternoon.
Undoubtedly Marshal will enjoy the
puzzle. but the incident becomes one
of more than common interest as a
sidelight on somebody's idea Of an
afternoon at the white house. Lots
of people would be interested to hear
the conversation when the Hoovers
and Lindberghs get together, but an
afternoon trying to solve a puzzle was
about the last thing anyone colsid-

Washington, Aug. 30.-The fact that
the white house, as officially an
nounced. mo longer receives letters
addressed to the president which arc
given publicity prior to their receipt
and acknowledgment will not make
any particular difference.
The news value Of any open letters
or protests addressed to MI. Hoover
will remain unchanged. That is. If
they are of sufficient public interest.
they will be given just as much pub
licity when made public. regardless
of the white house attitude. Thus.
what is described as an official at
tempt to curb the use of the white
house for publicity purposes is not
likely to have that effect.
Any petition " other public mes

Saturday, authorities said. The assault
occurred on the night of March "a in
McCray'S hotel room. Shortly after he
had received telephone call from a
woman, a man called him and said:
I'm coming up there and get you for
that. I'm going to beat you up"
McCray reported the conversation to
a friend. who has divulged it to police.
The oil operator summoned a phySi-
clan that night, who removed him to a
hospital where two operations were per-
formed. The physician said one of his
eyes appeared blackened and his face
