 Thanks to Charley Chase, we now know why those old-time two- reel comedies weren't as funny as they might have been. Tn the old days, if 8 comedy was too long, we used to cut 1t in half," Charley ex- plains. Then we would film a new finish for the first half, and a new beginning for the second half, and we'd have two complete pictures.
 From the looks of some of the two-reelers we get to-day, I'm not 50 sure that custom has died out yet.

Hollywood News GOssip BEAUTY WINNER MAKES GOOD!| Handicapped At Start But Learns Acting To Get Contract
DAN THOMAS

NEA Service Stan Correspondent.
 HollywOod.-One of the surest ways for Q girl NOT to get into the movies is to let Hollywood know she's a beauty contest winner.
 Because of the vast number of these beauteous damsels who have failed to make good in front of the flicker cameras, Hollywood usually calls two strikes on them before they even don makeup. Conse- uuently, most of them use their return trip tickets very quickly, while 6 few others remain to do extra or chorus work.
 This isn't Q hard and fast rule, however. Like all other rules, 1t too has its exceptions. And one was found when pretty 18-year- old Helen Wood breezed into town. But it took quite a while for her to prove that she was an excep- ton.
 At first the young brunei got the same reception accorded other girls who made similar bad beginnings. Fresh from winning a beauty con- test in Nashville, Tenn, Miss Wood alighted from her train full of hopes and dreams--and found she could get nothing but chorus work. With a hundred other girls she danced and sang, and was pointed out as an example of what happens to beauty contest winners in Hol- lywood.
 Doesn't Rest on Laurels
 But Helen wasn't satisfied to be 8 chlorine. She had come to Hol- 1ywood to become an actress. And although her dreams were blasted shortly after her arrival, she was determined not to give up.
 ''It didn't take me long to find out why most beauty contest win- CTS fail in Hollywood" Miss Wood declares. Really they have only themselves to blame. Most of them think that on the strength of their beauty alone they will become successful overnight. And they just sit and wait for that success.
 T discovered very quickly that, despite the fact that was con- sidered beautiful, I would have to learn something about acting if I expected to get anywhere. I had a little money I had saved, so I went to the best dramatic teacher I could find. She coached me every day for months and then, to give me some practical experience. arranged for me to work in film tests of other people"

 It was this test work, for which she didn't get paid, that netted the girl her first acting role in "She Married Her Boss" From that she stepped into a more important role

in "Buccaneer," in which she gave such an impressive performance that a long-term contract with Twentieth Century-Fox resulted.
 So Helen has proven there still is a place for beauty contest win- ners in Hollywood-providing they have plenty of ambition. But she isn't satisfied yet. f
 "As soon as really find my place on the screen, want to study painting and sculpturing," the girl declares. Those are the things want to do above every-

Hollywood-She's only 5 years old, but Wally Beery's little daughter, Carol Ann, can give the most so- phisticated screen star plenty of competition when 1t comes to boise.
 The other day Wally told me what a swell time Carol Ann had during their recent trip to Europe.
 "You should hear her tell about it." he said. That sounded like an excellent idea, so immediately made Q date to go out and chat with the youngster.
 Arriving at the Beery mansion, I was ushered into the spacious liv- ing room. Wally entertains his guests in the back yard or his n- brary but Carol Ann insists that the living room is the only proper place.
 A moment later the little girl, her blond hair in two pigtails down her back and her face scrubbed un- til 1t was pink, entered. After a dignified greeting, she said, T think we should have tea before we talk. Pardon me 8 moment and will see if it's ready"
 With that she skipped off toward the kitchen, returning minute la ter followed by her nurse bearing a tray of tea and wafers. Carol Ann insisted upon being 8 proper hos tess and pouring the tea herself.
 While the girl was absorbed in this duty, her nurse whispered that she had picked up the tea idea while abroad and must have it every time she has guests.
 Didn't Enjoy Boat Ride
 Tea over-Carol Ann consumed two cups plus an. innumerable number of the sweet wafers-she settled back in a big chair, crossed her legs very carefully, and tried unsuccessfully to make her feet reach the floor.
 T got awful sick on the boat going over," she declared. T had to stay right in the cabin with Nita, my nurse. Daddy would put his head in the door and ask If he could do anything. But he couldn't. The doctor gave me some pills, but I couldn't even eat them.
