LONDON, Jan. l-Francis Car dinal Bourne. Catholic Archbishop of Westminster, died Monday night at the age off73 years. He suffered an attack of bronchitis two years ago and never fully recovered. Heart trouble developed toward the last.
 Since the restoration of the Rom- an Catholic hierarchy in England in 1850, no Catholic prelate in that country had exercised so wide an influence as Francis Cardinal Bourne.
 He was the first Archbishop of Westminster ito dine at Bucking- ham Palace. and t has been gen. erally agreesa that the notable ad- vance made y She Catholic Church in England since the beginning of the century has been due largely to the leadership of the Cardinal.
 In promoting the growth of the church It appears to have been the plan of Cardinal Bourne to have a community grow up with the church rather than to wait until the former had been established. As far back as 1893 he engaged ill controversy with his immediate predecessor. Cardinal Vaughan, on the question whether there should be several diocesan seminaries or only one for all dioceses.
 Steady Progress
 When~ he became Archbishop ol Westminster, Cardinal Bourne put into effect his plan for steady progress by multi plying smal churches so the Catholics through out London might be able to at tend mass within half mile, at

Actors are not the only objects
to wear makeup on a motion

Every Article that shines, every

Of grease paint applied by the prop

He sprays them all with an air
gun so that their surfaces will not
pick up the reflections of the
Illuminating lamps and throw these
into the camera lens.
In Eight Bells" for instance, the
action takes place on a modern
freighter and there wsS a good deal
of brasswork which had to be dulled
as scrupulOUsly as a girl powders her
nose, but much more extensively.
John Wallace, head of Columbia s
makeup department, figured that it
took four times as much grease paint
to remove the brightness from the
brass as to remove the shine off the
