A barely averted tragedy in the
Raoul Walsh household came
about when the butler discovered
that their pet ring-tail monkey
"Ozzy" had become so captivated
with one of a litter of Scottie pup
pies, that he adopted the puppy
and took it high into the crotch
Of a tree where it was discovered
by the loving butler frothing at
the mouth, possibly from the ex-
citement or the altitude, follow
ing which the purp was rushed
quickly to the veterinarians shop
where an ozone treatment saved
it's life. In the meantime, while
the entire family and puppy were
done up at the vets, "Ozzy," still
in a paternal frame of mind,
adopted one of a litter of kittens
and had it in the same spot in
the tree, until the washes re-
turned for more rescue work. In
sane I know, but true nevertheless.

At Ritzy Theater

Your assumption is correct. I
am interested inasmuch as the
original announcement did not in
clude Washington among the
cities to be visited on the cross
country tour of the famous Jasper
Deeter mines.
It is the understanding that the
Deeter troupers will play in the
rich. and exclusive Folger Memo
rial theater, arriving for the short
engagement around the latter
part of September or early october.
This is distinction de luxe for
the Folger theater which honors
Shakespeare has been so partl'
cular and demanding about who
should use the magnificent shrine
to the Bard of Avon at Second
and East Capitol Street most folks
had begun to believe you had to
know the poet Will personally or
have been born at Strattord on
Avon.
I suppose I am correct in fur
ther assuming that the Deeter
repertoire will feature Shake
speare plays exclusively.
Jasper Deeter's little theater at
Moylan, Pa, has gained much at
tention because Ann Harding ad-
mits that she learned all about
acting there and in gratitude pays
it an annual visit as guest star.
Six weeks ago Libby Holman ap-
peared there as a graduate OF
the Jasper Deeter dramatic
school, and the torch singer
who has ambitions for more
serious things in the theater, drew
heavy overflow audiences.
It was ii years ago that Jasper
Deeter found an abandoned mill
in the Moylan Valley and estab-
lished his tiny temple to Thespis.
The organization now includes "a
Hedgerow people who produce
plays for so weeks of the year.
They dabble in the serious drama
and have presented 1bsen, Shaw,
O'Neill, Chekov, Shakespeare and
even Noel Coward.
It is a community social VEN
ture where the actors receive no
regular remuneration but are
provided board, home and such
luxuries as the receipts will pro-
vide. Jasper Deeter has acquired
national reputation with his
nonprofessional actors. He gives
a 10 weeks season of instruction
to favored applicants and it was
this course of study that Libby
Holman took. She was one of the
few selected from an application
list of more than 1000.
This will suffice on Jasper
Deeter until the news of his
washington visit is officially con-
firmed by the booking offices. On
the Deeter tour the plays to be
employed by the repertoire group
are all, what can be conveniently
described as, worthwhile" dramas.
Willard "Drunkard"
It appears that Washington and
vicinity are going to hear consid-
erable about 1.-THE Drunkard' this
August.
The latest rumor is that the
old-time play which is presented
with beer and pretzels as dra-
matte filipS will be offered in one
of the Hotel Willard'S bathrooms
by the downtown Washington
group Of thespianS.

Mail HeIp Wanted

Some of this departments cor
respondence with Hollywood lndl-
Gates reforms are in order in the
handling of star correspondence.
For instance, it irks me a little
to have an air-mailed, registered
letter to Ed Arnold, returned
from the GoldWyn-Mayer
studio with the notation he is
unknown at the studio. Wonder
if they ever looked at the pic
lures like "Sadie Mckee" or
"Rasputin and the Empress?" l
have other cases indicating a like
stupidity at other studios.
On my gold star list then for
prompt attention to correspond
ence about stars I place:
Herb Crooker, of Warner Bros,
who gives immediate and eff
cient service to motion picture
editors.
Tom Baily, of Paramount, who
is never too busy to answer letters,
always ready to make helpful sug'
gestions and good ones, maintains
the best Photographic service out
of the studios.
Jean Harlow, Mae West, Harold
Lloyd, Claudette Colbert and Dick
Powell, who appreciate newspaper
contacts and give prompt consid'
Grafton to ordinary requests.
On my "Phooey List" are those
who do not even send form letters
in reply to polite correspondence
You would be surprised to know
how MANY are on it.

sailors and marines.
Eight seamen from the Inflated
gunboat required hospital attention
for burns when they were brought
here by the H. NJ S. Wishart, Brit
ish destroyer, and the steamship
Ehinan, merchant steamer. Their
burns, however, were not serious
and responded readily to treatment.
The Fulton was on pirate patrol
in the Bas bay section. forty miles
north of Hangkong, when the fire
broke out. 1t was believed that oil
had ignited in the vicinity of the
Diesel engines with which the craft
had been ref1tted. The flames spread
rapidly, feeding on oil which was
scattered by the explosion of two
cylinders. Water from emergency
hoses failed to quench the fire.
The flames attracted the atten-
ton Of the ships in the vicinity.
They raced to the Fulton's SIDE.
The WiShart, first to arrive. dar-
ingly drew alongside. Sailors leaped
from one ship to another. Others
were picked up from boats. The

up forty-nine men. United States
navy officers praised the heroism Of
their rescuers.
The Fulton still was smouldering
when the navy yard tug Poet Chau-
Ger took it in tow. Officers of the
British destroyer Whitsed boarded
the damaged vessel and found that
the fire had swept through its en-
tire interior, cutting the craft amid
ships.
Meanwhile, United States navy
authorities dispatched the United
States steamship Ashville from

FORBIDDEN CITY
CONTRACTS FOR
MODERN LIGHTS
American Firm Gets Order
for Electric installation
in Tibet Capital.
BvUnifcd Prcss

BIZ United PrCss
LONDON. March l5.-A scroll Of
rice paper. two feet long and four
feet wide, dated The 2lst day Of
the fourth month Of the water bird
year, was in the hands Of the Cen
eral Electric Company today as a
contract to install electric lights in
the ancient forbidden city Of Lhasa,
Tibet.
It is one Of the most inaccessible
cities in the modern world
For a thousand years. this fOunt
Of Buddhism, where no railways
penetrate and which few white men
have seen, has been Illuminated by
age-old lamps and primitive candles.
Within a year all its buildings. from
the smallest homes to the palace of
the Dalai Lama are scheduled to
twinkle with modern electric light
bulbs.
Vast quantities Of equipment al
ready are reported being transported
from the nearest rail head 10 Lhasa,
over the rocky and perilous routes
than can be traversed surely only
by oxen or by Tibertan porters.
The religious orders. which vir-
tually rule Tibet. had to be per-
suaded to give their permission to
install the equipment. The Dalai
Lama himself, it is said, was the
strongest influence towards modern
izatiOn. He died, however, before he
could see the lights he sanctioned.
Included in the order to the
American firm we're six thousand
yards of heavy cable and fifteen
thousand yards Of lighter cable. One
stipulation, in the contract, de-
scribed as one Of the strangest docu-
ments ever received by a modern
firm, was that the equipment had
to be laid down at Calcutta in cases
weighing not more than eighty
pounds each. This was because of
transportation obstacles.
This necessitated reducing the
main cable to twenty-yard lengths,
requiring more than three hundred
cases for the transport of cable
alone. Experts are waiting at
Lhasa to put together the "jig-saw
puzzle" provided by the enormous
number of boxes.

WASHINGTON VISITORS
TO HAVE NEW GUIDES
u. S. Revises Information Bureau
for Their Convenience.


BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, March 15.-The
government is opening a new infor-
nation bureau to help the thou
sands of visitors to Washington find
their way among the maze Of federal
departments. administrations, boards
and alphabetical agencies.
Thousands of business men find
it necessary to visit Washington in
connection with the countless pro-
grams of one sort and another
launched under the new deal.
The bureau will supply informa-
ton on just what agency deals with
a particular question and tell the
visitor where to find it.
With President Roosevelt trying
TO eliminate lobbying, some view the
organization of the new information
bureau as an effort to supply gratis
some of the information which bust
ness men have paid lobbyists in the
past.
