HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 9.-RumorS
were rampant in Hollywood yes
terday that story trouble will
cause the further postponement
and maybe the abandonment Of
"Jubilo" as a Will Rogers vehicle
at Fox.
In some official circles, it was
said the picture would start today,
as scheduled, but others put the
date 10 days from now.
This writer has strong grounds
to believe, however, that the delay
will be much longer if the picture
is produced at all. "Jubilo" has
been giving trouble since Fox
started to convert it into talkie
script. AS the picture was one Of
Rogers best silent films, the
studio has kept on trying to whip
it into shape.
If these efforts fail. as it now
appears they will, the cowboy
comedian will have nothing Sched-
uled until Estate Fair" that Spe-
cial with September starting
date.

Boulevard talk: Some bright
promoters have taken over the
old Selig Studio on Mission
Road and are offering the public
a complete show of how talkies
are made. For a small admiS-
sion price, the visitor can see
company rehearse, play a scene
and can follow the film into the
cutting room and laboratory.
Considering the thousands of
people who are clamoring with
out avail at the other studio
gates, the scheme should be a
highly successful one.

If Harry Langdon can finish
with the Al Jolson company by

to join the "Of Thee I Sing"
troupe.
The comedian figures to get a
possible 20 weeks out of the en-
gagement. After that, he returns
to Hollywood to make those short
subjects.
The deal hangs, of course, on
United Artists.
Due to the change of directors
on the Jolson film, Langdon has
been drawing salary from this

We'll" he observed, IF that's
all that's on your mind, it
looks to me as though your
road Is very clear. You've just
finished telling me that you're
now worth half a million. Why
not pack up and go exactly
where you please?"

me, has a level head and will

George grinned.
"See your broker at once"
he advised. Women like that
are now selling as low as a mil
lion dollars a share"
Joe shook his head.
I'm deadly serious, George.
I've been giving this matter a
great deal of thought-and I've
almost reached decision. I've
been reading the various Broad
way columns anC 1 know that
a great many actresses are out
OF work just at present. Why
shouldn't I go to New York,
search around a bit and choose
some attractive actress who
! would be willing to go to
Europe as my travelling COM
panion?
so far as I'm concerned, the
sex angle is out. I'll be very
frank with her, if that's the
way se wants it, it's okay
with me. 1 want companion
ship on this trip, and nothing
more. In addition to her ex-
penses, the right girl can have
$125 a week from me. The only
thing I'd ask her would be to
be on the level with me as I'd
be with her.
Chances For Trouble
do you think I could find
such girl, George?"
George didn't like the idea
at all. at all. He tried to point
out to his pal the possible con-
sequences of such trip. There
were chances of notoriety. black
mail and what not. But his
words fell upon ears that did
not want to hear them. And
Joe toe: the train for New
York that very night.
The man was no stranger in
our nervous city. His business
had required his presence here
at least once a week over a
period of years. The only diff
ference now was that he be-
gan to examine the street he
had previously avoided.
Through mutual acquaint-
ances, Joe met plenty of Broad
way women in short order.
Some were fair, some were
rare; some were lean, some
were mean-but all, l trust,
were women.

them to dinners and to shows.
he finally determined that
Ethel was the girl for him.
After their third evening to-

proposition to the girl. Ethel
seemed a trifle shocked at first.
but finally admitted that such
a trip was something to con-
slider in these days and times.

Let's stroll over to a little
restaurant now and discover
Joe as he fingers over his cof-
fee. With him is George Sum-
merbottom, his pal throughout
the years. AS George pours
more coffee, Joe pours more
words.
George" he asserts calmly,
"you've known me long, long
time. All my life I've been tied
up in this town. I like the town
but I've often longed to get
away on just one decent trip.
I've wanted to get over to- Eu-
rope and do exactly as I
pleased for four or five months.
But, somehow or other, I never
had the opportunity"

Then, quite unexpectedly,
Captain Atkinson came back.
He was thinner than ever and
he forgot to bring any pres
ents. He made one leap for
Millie and flung his long,
sinewy arms about her roughly
and covered her mouth with
his.
Val covered against the wall,
terrified. InstinctiVely she shut
her eyes. When she opened
them again they had drawn
apart and Millie, all shining as
if from some inner light, was
holding tight to his hands.

Atkinson, whose lean cheeks
were clean shaven and whose
dark, thick hair was soft and
sleek as fur, wearing whiskers

Mile laughed, too, half
heartedly first, then louder
and louder so that Val had to
force her childish treble to
keep up with her and finally
she saw that Millie wasn't
laughing any more, but crying.
Crying dejectedly and miser-
ably. Crying as Val had never
seen her cry before. Timidly
she crept closer to comfort her,
but Millie turned her back and
covered her face with her
hands.

She begged, through tears.
So Val went out and sat on
the landing and under the
crack of the door came the
sound of Millie weeping. She
could hear it plainly. So
could the landlady and the
lady who roomed across the
hall. who tiptoed out to listen.
But when Val spoke of it
next day Millie said, Don't be
silly. I had one of my head

Captain Returns
They went out every day for
a while, and many gentlemen
came to see Millie. Val eyed
them moroSely. She would have
preferred to wait for the cap
tain. When he came at last,
she thought he would surely
invite them to go to Japan
this time, because you could see
he couldn't bear Millie out of
his sight a minute. His blue
eyes, the color of sea water,
followed her everywhere, and
Miles low, bubbly laughter
came back again, and they
were happy.
But he sailed without them
and Millie cried and called
Val poor lamb"-always a
bad sign-and refused to talk
about it at all.
The landlady, who had been
so nice when they first moved
in, was not so nice any more.
She was always banging on the
door and wanting to talk to
Millie, and Val would have to
open the door crack and
say she wasn't home, though
she was, really. Hiding behind
the Chinese screen!

Though they started alone
they usually came back with a

While Val would be building

rolling down the gently terraCed

to meet someone she knew.
When it was time to go home

The child watched Shyly. 1t
was like watching some infin-
itely moving, never-to-be-forgot-
ten scene in a play. The
familiar, shabby room seemed
to have faded away. Millie and
the tall, slim figure in the
rough blue coat were along
and drenched in light.
Millie wore a long, white
teagoWn with a great scarf OF
purple and scarlet. Her beau
tiful lips were parted, but she
wasn't smiling. She just looked,
with that strange, inner light
shining out of her at the cap
tain, and the captain looked
back at her.
After long while Val began
to Whimper. She was afraid
and she didn't know what to
do.
AS if WITH a great effort
Millie tore her long, impaSSion-
ed gaze from the captain and
looked YEARLY toward the lit
tie girl.
"I forgot her" she said in
a curiously flat, hushed voice.

feet high) was flung one of
those big double signs herald
ing the arrival on the Great
White Way of a picture that
no one could afford to miss.
So it goes in the animal world.
Today a stage star; tomorrow
a walking billboard.
A Playful Cub
Mike was easily the tameSt,
most playful and generally the
most amusing tiger cub 1 have
ever handled. When he was
about three months old I hap
pened to pick him up along
with a number of other animals
on the Siamese border. Not
many days after I installed
him at Singapore he was the
pet of the compound. He was
so tame 1 could safely give him
the run of the place, and it
didn't take him long to strike
up a friendship with everyone
on the premises. He was the
only animal ever owned that
mastered the fine art of scam
pering in and out of the house
without irritating the servants.
This was partially because Mike
had the worlds disarming look.
Just as you'd get ready to CuSs
him out about something he'd
look up at you-and you'd
change your mind. There was
something in his manner that
made you feel that if you ever
treated this chap roughly you'd
feel so badly about it that to
ease your conscience you'd have
to call up the nearest S. P. CA.
or it's equivalent, and have your
self taken in custody.
His Angelic Look
don't mean to say that
Mike was an angel. He wasn't.
But he had an angelic look.
And he had sense enough not
to do anything unangelic
around the house.
After I had had Mike for
about a month I found myself
preparing to make a trip over
to Borneo. The Christmas sea-
son was approaching and I'd
received a cable from my
friend Monk" Antrim, the
most celebrated host in the Far

Most Savage Tribe
in South America

A small expedition into the
perlious jungle lands of Ecuador
and Peru, inhabited only by the
barbaric head hunters of the il.
varo Indians is being led by
Mathew Stirling, ethnologist Of
the Smithsonian Institution.
The last outpost on the Jivaro
frontier at Mendez, Ecuador, was
passed by Stirling and his pene-
tration into the virgin forest of
the Jivaro country along the
Great PaStaza, Upano-Santiago,
Morona rivers and their tribu-
taries will cut him off from civili-
zation for two months.
Due to the impossible jungle
land the sole mode of transporta-
ton is by laborious hiking. No
white man has ever penetrated
the region and there are no
trails, neceSSitating the cutting
Of pathways through the dense
underbruSh.
Most Warlike Tribe
Stirling will study the customs
Of the Jivaros, the most warlike
of all South American tribes.
The total number Of JivaroS is
estimated at 10000. and the tribe
is divided into a number of
smaller factions hostile to each
other.
The savagery Of the Jivaro is
made evident by the fact that

capture as many heads of the
enemy as they can. Territorial
acquisition is never the object Of

Warfare is waged with poisoned

The heads Of the slain are

Evil Spirits Blamed
Superstition and witchcraft
runs rife through all factions Of

Of a Jivaro Of one faction which
is blamed upon evil spirits sent

The JivaroS have discovered
many powerful drugs and poisons
unknown to science. One of the
most powerful drugs used by the
tribe is prepared from a jungle
shrub and it has the power to
completely narcotize and bring
hallucinationS. This drug Is used

GARNER FORCES
DUE To SWEEP
CALIFORNIA

SAN FRANCISCO, March 7.
Hoover leaders in California are
tndulging in "a lot Of shrill whis-
Ting approaching the political
woods ahead.
They assert the President will
be unopposed in the primaries
and elected in November.
There is little reason at the
moment to question the Repub
hca1 claim that the 48 delegates
to their national convention will
be for Hoover. and probably with.
out a contest.
Election Doubtful
But electing Hoover is some
thing else again. That will
largely turn OH the question
whether Hoover will not lose all
the majority he piled up over AL
Smith four years ago.
Unless all usually dependable
signs fail, the Democratic party
stands a better than even-money
chance to wipe out the ,Repub
hcan advantage.
Despite prevailing opinion back
East, Hoover has lost quite as
much ground in his own State as
in any other part of the county
and for precisely the same rea'
sons.
So, as far as the California in
dorsement is concerned, the dele
CATION looks bulletproof to Hoover.
Senator johnson could probably
kick over the arrangement if he
cared to do so, but he doesn't ap-
pear in the mood.
Garner Looms Big
A few weeks ago Governor
Roosevelt, of New York, appeared
to have the Endorsement of Cali
fornia in his pocket. Then along
came John Garner. Looming in
the offing is AL Smith. At the
rate the Garner candidacy is
moving both sections of California.
Smith and Roosevelt have good
reasons for concern.
In both divisions the hard-head-
ed snd picturesque Texan is at.
tracing support from Smith as
well as Roosevelt, though a greater
percentage from the latter.
McAdoo and Elliot in the south
and Henry McPike and j. O.
DAVIS and other influential Demo
Gratis in the north, are jointly
mobilizing an army that will be
difficult to stop.
