Richards Next
Apropos Of the story run In
this space that RK-O had
purchased Edna Ferber's new
novel, "Cimarron," I am told that
Richard Dix will portray the
stellar part. The picture Is not
scheduled to go into production
until June. In the interim, Dix
1t is said, will go into rigid
training. He will evidently
appear in "Cimarron" minus any
suggestion of waist girth. For g
while, Richard did appear o bit
heavy. Avoirdupois runs in his
family. He keeps on a fair diet
while working, but in the case
of a picture as important al
"Cimarron," Dix Is not taking
any chances, diet and training.

Avalon, Santa Catalina Island, Cal. Nov. "6 Op) The annual Santa Catalina Island open tournament, substantial link in southern Califor- nias golden trail of winter golf, has been cancelled by William Wriglcy, Jr., chewing gum manufacturer, who had posted s7,500 prize money for the December II to 14 contest.
 There is a definite lack Of in terest in open golf" Wrigley said last night in announcing the cancel lation. Whether this can be attrib- uted to the present unrest, 10 too much open tournament competition in the past, or to disagreements be- tween professionals, l am not pre- pared to say
 But there is lack of interest, and rather than have tournament that is not a success prefer to drop the plans entirely for this year
 Cancellation of the Glendale and Long Beach tournaments recently, also was a moving factor in calling off the Catalina open, Wrigley said. . With the Glendale and Long Beach contests off the boards a full month would have elapsed between play at Catalina and in the sl0,000 Los Angeles open.
 Several large amateur tourna- ments probably will be arranged during the winter season, Wrigloy said
