He Can Move

Stepin Fetchit's reputation
as a slow motion comedian has
been blaSted-at least insofar
as members Of the "Helldora-
do" company at Fox studios are
concerned.
According to James CruZe,
who is directing Stepin Fetchit
in the Jesse L. Lasky produc-
ton, the Negro actor is one of
the fastest humans he has ever
seen.
THAT boy can run-don't tell
me he's Slow said Cruze fol-
lowing refining of the flood
sequences in "Helldorado" in
which a bridge is washed away.
AS a matter of fact, it YVES
by inches and by seconds that
Stepin avoided being swept
into a raging stream of water
when the bridge, on which he
was elnoting, collapsed.
eff he had moved with his
accustomed acceleration, the
Fox studio would now be look
ing for another comedian"
added Cruze, describing the in
cident. 1.-The truth is he mar
rowly missed going down with
the bridge. And 1 swear have
never seen any one run faster
than Step did when that water
deluged that bridge"

Offer Is Given
on Dance Tunes
Orchestra at the Stables
Posts Prizes.

Those patrons of the dance who
have been following the outstanding
dance tunes for several years will be
interested in the Old Time Dance
Tune contest being conducted by
The Stables.
The object of the competition is
to submit to Carl Kollmeyer's or
chestra at The Stables standard
foxtrot, not more than ten years
old, which the orchestra is unable
to play. This confidence in itself
has been manifested with the or
chestra's boast that it won't have to
give away any passes. 1t seems to
be up to the patrons to prove that
the boys are not as good as they
think.
The songs submitted must have
been generally published and be
standard songs, not novelties. They
are to be submitted on any night
except Saturday and Sunday.

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 1. = Baby

Shirley Temple and David Holt,
the big-iittle stars of f1lmdom, are
presenting the major production
problems, it became known at Par
amounts Hollywood studio.
Paramount executives are con-
cerned, for David is scheduled to
start work with Max Bear in kids
on the Cuff" within the next three
weeks. They have made arrange
ments with a dentist to keep daily
check on David's molars and to
prepare a set of caps that can be
put in place Immediately.
David already has shown his baby
teeth can throw film schedules into
low gear. He lost his first tooth
during the filming of "You Belong
to Me-" Lee Tracy, Helen Mack, Di-
rector Alfred Worker and the rest
of the troupe got rest while
dentist did rush job on an imita--
ton one.
But when production was resumed
the new front tooth caused the kid
to whistle when he spoke his lines.
More production costs rolled up
r while that was remedied.
Now he and Shirley, too, are show
ing distinct indications of further
impending dental drop outs.

Roof TO Offer
New Fox Trot
Pretty Girl Composed by
Bob Nolan.

Feminine beauty, inspiration of
poets and artists throughout the
age, was the incentive for new fox
trot which will be introduced on the
Indiana Roof tonight.
Pretty Girl" is the name of the
melody which was written by Bob
Nolan during the last week.
Nolan is the popular star of both
the NBC and CHS networks, who
came to the Indiana Roof three
weeks ago to direct musical activi-
tiles.
His observations since coming to
the roof, however, have not been
confined to the musical reactions of
his audiences. He claims to have
been particularly conscious of The
beauty and grace of the Indianapo-
lis girls as they sway in the arms
of their escorts to his music.
His observations found a musical
outlet in Pretty Girl" which is
written in lively fox trot tempo.
Employees of the state, county, and
city are sponsoring a Democratic
Victory Dance" to be held on the
roof next Friday evening.
Arrangements for the dance are
in the charge of L.. Roy Wallace,
who. has retained Bob Nolan and
His Music.
Mr.. Wallace has extended an in
VitatiOn to the general public to at
tend the celebration.

include the mastery of the trumpet,
Saxophone and violin. He also does
most of the arrangements for his

His most original accomplish

on his own views of CARRIERS music,

My hat goes off to Mi. Ferracane
and Mr.. La Rosa for their new
place, the Castle Night Club. The
interior of the building which has
been completely decorated in the
modern mode, is covered with
carved wall-covering, giving the
effect of solid stone. The lighting
effects are novel.
There is a club room in one end
of the building where tired business
men may rest before a CHEEKY fire
in a large open fireplace. Another
larger fireplace is built in one end
of the dance hall.
Balconies, something new in night
club architecture, have been con-
structed on each side of the hall.
The front lawn has been land
scaped and the building gives more
the aspect of a club than show

FLAG 1877 YEARS OLD

Flag Day, tomorrow, June ia, COM
memorates the anniversary Of the adoption
of the Stars and Stripes as the national
emblem, by an act Of Congress 157 years
ago.
During the Revolutionary War num-
Der Of unofficial flags of various designs
appeared among the regiments of the Con-
tinental Army A flag adopted in ITS
had lS alternate red and white stripes,
representing the Is colonies, but carried
the British crosses of st. George and st.
Andrew in blue canton, to indicate that
allegiance to the King had not been re-
nounced. Even after the Declaration of
Independence in .1776 this flag was dis
played by forts and ships for several
months.
But on June Ia, TIT, Congress of
ficially adopted a new flag, in the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved that the flag of the Is
United States be 13 stripes, alternate red
and white; that the Union be I3 stars
white in blue field, representing new
constellation.
When Vermont and Kentucky were
admitted to the Union two stripes were
added to the flag, making 15 But it was
seen that the addition of stripe for each
new state would spoil the symmetry of the
flag, SO in 1913 Congress provided that in
future there should be only the original l3
stripes, but thata star should be added for
each new state.
The pretty tradition that Betsy Ross
made the first flag according to design
suggested by Washington has been pop
ularly accepted, but historians doubt its
authenticity.
Since its establishment in 1896, the
observance of Flag Day has become wide
spread, and is the occasion for patriotic
exercises, in which reverence for the flag
and all it stands for its inculcated. The
Order of Elks has adopted most inspiring
ritual for its Flag Day ceremonies.

HEREsY so YEARS AGO

Few persons probably know or re-
member that in 1884 famous evolution
trial" took place in the United States, in
which Rev. James Woodrow, Southern
educator, was defendant.
Such is the case, however, and the
trial attracted almost as much attention in
educational, and theological circles as the
more recent trial Of Prof. Scopes in Ten
nessee.
DIR. Woodrow was at the time a pro-
fessor in the South Carolina College and
Theological Seminary at Columbia, Pres
byterian school, where he gave courses in
natural science as related to divine revela-
tion.
In the course of his lectures it de-
veloped that DR.. Woodrow presented the
Darwinian doctrine Of evolution in such a
manner as to conflict with orthodox teach
ings supported by the Book Of Genesis, so
the fundamentalists of that day had him
tried and convicted of heresy.
His nephew, Woodrow Wilson, who
was later to become president of Princeton
University and twice president Of the
United States, was indignant over the re-
suit Of the trial. as s were the leading
scientific men Of the country.
The conviction was reversed later by
the higher Presbyterian authorities, so DIR.
Woodrow was reinstated and afterward
served as president of the State College
until his retirement in 1897. He died in
1907.
