Hollywo0d.-That new picture, Underneath the Sea-" which Al Rogeii is just starting with Ralph Bellamy in the leading role, cer- tainly has been titled appropriately. Despite the presence of human nc- tors in the picture, practically all of 1t will be shot under water. And unless miss my guess, the reel stars will be underwater creatures.
 A huge octopus, measuring ,1S feet from tip to tip, already has started giving Rogell and the cameramen plenty of trouble. Mir octopus just won't do what he should--and does practically every thing he shouldn't. The big kick in the picture is to be c. fight between this octopus and a deep-sea diver, provided the octopus learns by that time that he's supposed to fight
 A new light, recently perfected, which will penetrate water, and supersensitive film win make 1t possible to shoot this underwater actions Two diving bells, capable of sinking 120 feet below tho sur face, already have been constructed
 -one for the camera crew and the other for some of the scenes in which the human actors wiN ap- pear.
 Barrow Vs Dunn
 Mama, that mans back hcrc again! "That man" in this in-. stance being John Farrow. And the person doing the ''squawking" is Jimmy Dunn. Jimmy's romance with Maureen O'Sullivan was flour ishing quito merely until Barrow appeared on the scene 0 few weeks ago. But now anything might hap pen. It seems that Farrow and Maureen were pretty much that way about each other--at least Maureen was--about Q year and a half ago while Lila Lee was in Q sanitarium down in Arizona. Then Lila came back and Farrow for- got all about Maureen. A little later he was deported because of having entered tho country in an irregular manner. But he's back again now, under contract to write and direct for RKO. And 1t appears that M9u- reen still has soft spot for him. As far as Lila goes. she's expected to marry George Hill any day now.
 Tie this one if you can. "Wed- nesday e miracle occurred on the RKO lot. The weather was chilly. According to tradition, stars should have been shiverfng in sheer even- Ing gowns. But, by q coincidence, every player on the lot was com- fortable.
 "Flve love scenes were being shot on five different stages. And each sequence found tho players ensconced in plush furniture be- fore roaring fifeplaces. <The play CTS involved were. Lionel Barry more and Nan Sunderland, Rich. ard Dix and Vera Engies, Colin Give and Katharine Hepburn.

 TheaterS
SPENCER TRACY ATTAINs STARDOM LIN 10000 YEARS IN SING SING" AT STATE SATURDAY..

While prison bars spell disaster and ruin to most men, they were the rungs of the ladder to success for Spencer Tracy, who plays tho leading role of a convict in tho First National picture, Twenty Thousand Years in Sing Sing" which opens at the Warner State theater on Saturday
 Tracy had been making steady but comparatively slow progress as a Broadway actor when he was picked for the role of Killer MearS in "The Last Mile" His perform ance was SO outstanding he was immediately offered tempting motion picture contract, making his screen debut In Up the River" another prison story with a com edy twist. His touch was so sure, his talent 50 notable that Tracy was made.
 It was on the strength of his performance in these convict roles that he was engaged to play the leading part in what Is the great est prison story ever screened, a story 50 dramatically powerful, so emotionally intense, so realistically accurate, 1t could have been con- ceived and written only by one nfan. And that man Is Lewis D. Lawes, warden of Sing Sing prison, who undoubtedly knows more about the human side of the con- vict, as we'll as the technical prison life, than any other living person:
 And Spencer Tracy makes of Convict Tom Connors Q never to- character, evil, ugly, yet admirable in the quality of un- dying loyalty in love and friend- ship. There is romance, pathos and the most thrilling drama in Wor- den Lowes' story which has been given vivid colorful screen pres- entation by First National pictures.
 Tracy is ably supported by Bette Davis, Arthur Byron, Lyle Talbot, Grant Mitchell, Warren Hymer Louis Calhern and Sheila Terry.
 The management sincerely rec ommends this picture to both women and children patrons.

Of I. DAYS
Budget Problem Still Remains
Unsettled; Coad Continues
Threat of FiIibuSter

ANNAPOLIS, March 27.-With
only seven legislative days of the
General Assembly remaining, the
fate of several major problems
hinges upon the smoothneSS with
which the tAw-producing ma
chinery may be operated in the
final stretch. Night sessions are
in prospect.
Action is still to be taken on
the budget. This must be ap-
proved by the Senate and then
run the gantlet of the House.
The same is true of several other
measures, related to budget pro-
visions.
Beer In Controversy
The gasoline revenue distribu-
tion bill, which has been ap-
proved by the House, is expected
to go back to the lower chamber
with several Senate amendments.
The proposed Statewide beer
regulatory measure and the pro-
hibition repeal amendment are
other highly controversial mat
ters which must be piloted
through both chambers.
Filibuster Continues
With Senator Joseph Allan
Coad, of st. Marys county, de-
termined to continue his fill
buster against the proposed en-
actment of a measure which
would permit dredging in the Po-
tomac River for two months of
the year, there is a possibility
that the stroke of midnight
April 3, when the session must
adjourn, will find a number of
these important projects blocked.
