VENUS-1929 MODEL
Typical Chorus Girl in Talkies
Is 10, Slender and a Brunei

BIZ NE4 Serrice
HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 15.-The
IL typical chorus girl has
been found in the singing and
talking pictures.
The hundreds, of girls at
tracted to Hollywood by the
sound films differ radically
from the average stage chorus
girl, recent survey indicated.
After lot chorus girls at
First National Studios had
filled out a QUESTIONABLE, one
girl was found who hit the
general average on each of the
forty questions asked.
This girl is Maxine Cantway,
10. of Hollywood. She weighs
1O8 pounds, is 5 feet 3 inches
tall, has light brown hair and
blue eyes and perfect" figure.
She lives with her parents,
does not own an automobile,
has attended both dramatic
and dancing schools and has
danced on the stage. In every
way she hits the average" of
all the girls who answered the
QUESTIONABLE.
MISS CANTWAY has been
V1 dancing since she was 4
years old, and Lima Basquette,
famous stage and screen star,
was her first teacher. She as
pires to be a legitimate actress
and her hobby is buying shoes,
of which she has thirty-five
pairs.
She personifies the new type
of dancing and singing girl
who has been attracted to the
sound films, in contrast to the
older, usually blond chorus
girl of the stage.
Because Of her strenuous
dancing, learning routine for
as many as five different pic
lures at once, Miss Cantway is
more slender than the typical
New York chorus girl, as ex-
emplif1ed by Muriel Finley,
golden girl" of the Follies.

NA 23.-Army's foot ball team
wv said good-by to the home
folk today by defeating Ohio
Wesleyan, 10 to 6, In a game
in which the visitors from Delaware,
Ohio, were in the game from first to last.
It was the last appearance Of Capt.
Keener eagle Wertz Murrel, Buster Perry
and Herb Gibner at Niche Stadium and
two Of the quartet said their farewells
with touchdowns. eagle and Murrel
counted one each. Perry played a great
defensive game and Gibner was a star
OF the starting team which did so we'll
that Coach Bih Jones let 1t play half
the game.
Army has two games left to play,
but one is in New York and the other
at Palo Alto, Calf.
The visitors were a constant threat
to Army throughout the flrst half when
the reserves were representing the home
forces. The Bishops outSained the
Cadets and stopped Army assaults
which were few and far between. When
the regulars were rushed in to start
the second half they, too, had to beat
! back a sustained Ohio Wesleyan drive,
but with this accomplished, Capt. eagle
took the situation in his hands and
ran 66 yards to score and break the
deadlock:
eagle later tossed Q pass to Glattly
on Ohio Wesleyan'S 1-yard line, and
on the next play Murrel plunged over
for the second counter. Ed Messenger
and Jack Price won assists on this
scoring play, for they placed the Cadets
In scoring position. Messenger blocked
an Ohio Wesleyan kick and Price fell
on the ball on the 20-yard line.
Hertz, who was the second best run
ner on the field today, being ranked
only by eagle, scored the single touch
down registered by the visitors. He
took pass behind the goal line to
score without vigorous opposition after
a clever pass, growing out of fake place
ment kick, had put the ball in easv

Polly Humber, big Army guard, ac-
counted for the last touchdown when

was played in a swirl of snow that

first team throughout the season were
injected into the game. This aggre,
failed to register a consistent gain for
the rest of the half.
Wesleyan's lone tally came in the
second period also, on 40-yard sprint
by Fordyce, a substitute tackle who
caught Gannon'S attempted pass after
the ball had been knocked high in the
air by Battles, the individual star of
the Bobcat eleven. Not a single extra
point vas added to any of the six touch
downs scored during the afternoon.
Battles, the only regular left in the
Wesleyan backfield after three men had
been left at home because of the three
year eligibility agreement between the
two schools, did about everything for
his team. He bore more than the brunt
of the ball-carrying and did all the
kicking and what little passing was at

mn ARBOR, Mich. November
n 23.-Michigan and Iowa fought
"A their hearts out here today in
1 \ the final game Of the season,
but both teams failed to score.
The Hawkeyes, making possibly their
last appearance in the Big Ten, had
the advantage of offense. Michigan,
with its back to the wall, had the ad-
vantage of defense, but its line was
porous to the rushes Of Haggerty in
midfleld.
While Iowa rushed Michigan back 10
its goal line twice and had the ball in
Michigan territory much of the time,
the Wolverines gave the HawkeyeS q
fright when two forward passes car
ried the ball we'll down into Hawkeye
territory and Joe Gembis went back to
try for a place kick. Referee Nichols
waved the ball wide as 1t passed high
over the goal post, but other officials
seemed to think differently. After a
conference the referees decision was
upheld.
The game developed a new star for
Iowa in Loris Haggerty. With Capt.
Willis Glasgow and the great Oran
Pape failing in their speciality Of circling
ends and cutting OF tackle, Haggerty
battered the center of the Michigan
line as it has not been battered since
the Purdue tussle.
With its line rather consistently out
played on offense, Michigan failed to
get going. Maynard Morrison was re-
sponSible for most of the Michigan first
downs. The Wolverines were danger
Gus only with the forward pass.
