Another colorful chapter OF
Hollywood's history came to a
sudden end with Lowell Sherman's
untimely death. And the world
lost another great actor, a man
who, at all times, was master
Snowman. With this rare theat
rical knack, he possessed a mag
nificent sense of humor.
1t is always difficult, at least
for me, to talk of friend who
is gone without seeming to go a
bit slushy. There are a few things
about Lowell I think you should
know: His trick of wearing a
monocle and carrying a handker
chief tucked in one sleeve was
strictly Showmanship. It attracted
attention, and especially envy from
other performerS-but he had a
personality, grand manner that
carried off such things and he
alone could get away with it.
It was Lowell, playing the
villain in '"The Sign on the Door
on a New York stage, who caused
new attention to be leveled on

"heavies." He was so good in the
part he received applause, an un-
heard of gesture at the time.
Although he wasn't so honored,
most of Hollywood felt that he
should have received an Academy
award for his portrayal of the
down-and-out director in What
Price Hollywood" And then came
the excitement about Mae West.
Again he was forgotten. All he
did was direct. "She Done Him
Wrong" Macs best picture to
date!
Lowell won't be forgotten. He
left many indelible impressions on
the pages of theatrical history.
Roxy, the veteran Snowman,
was giving a tryout to a young
hopeful who wanted to be an ac-

mumbled a set of lines he had
given her, he suddenly demanded:
Look here, did you ever hear
Of pathOs?"
"Why, Of course" the sweet
thing answered, "he was a men,
ber of a Greek team called Da-
mon and PathOS!"

About Shirley
Shirley Temple failed to make
the critics 10. But make no mis-,
take about her making the
charmed circle with exhibitors. I
regard her as the most remarkable
juvenile discovery since Jackie
Cooper and fully as outstanding q
baby genius as the Jackie Coogan
of "The Kid" This youngster has
the divine spark and is no Holly
wood accident. No wonder Fox
is keeping her busy for she has
grown an inch and a half since
her first movie and every day the
prayers of the Fox executives are
that her baby teeth won't fall out
before she has completed the four
picture schedule of 1885.

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING
CONFUSION REDUCED
Buyers Encouraged to Garry
Small Purchases Home to Avert
Misnlacement Danger.

Washington stores have managed to
avoid a part of the expected Christmas
confusion through encouraging shop
pers to carry their small purchases
home, rather than have them delivered
later, according to Edward D. Shaw,
secretary of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Association.
Large bundles, Shaw said, are COM
paratively easy to handle and gener-
ally are delivered promptly. Difficulty
arises, however, from small packages,
because they are so easily misplaced or
overlooked.
Shaw also said statistical checks of
pedestrian trafic during the rush sea-
son show nearly three times as many
persons are carrying their own pur-
chases now than during the normal
shopping season.

DEMANDS PROBE
IN MINNEAPOLIS
State Senator Proposes
100000 to Finance In.
quiry Into Crime.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MINNEAPOLIS, December IA
new demand for legislative investi-
cation Of the recent assassination OF
Walter Liggett, Minneapolis newspaper
publisher, was made today.
1t came from State Senator Mike
Gavin of Winona, who offered res
olution proposing appropriation of
100000 to finance an inquiry by COM
mittee, which also would investigate
strike riots here a year ago.
"As long as those who incite riots
and murder go unpunished." said the
resolution, industrial peace will not
be established in Minneapolis"
Previously the Legislature received
another resolution calling for $4,000
to finance investigation of the Liggett
case and crime conditions here.
In his Jail cell today Isadore Blumen-
field said he expected to be indicted
for the Liggett killing.
But they can't convict me-" he
shouted. They're trying to make
foot ball out of me. They're trying to
use me to clean up dirty Minneapolis. 4"
Identified as Slayer.
Blumenfeld was recently arrested
and held without charge. Mrs. Liggett
and Wesley Andresch both said they
recognized Blumenfeld as Liggetts
slayer.
Meanwhile the States case against
Blumenfeld began taking shape as
the attorney generals Office launched
a new hunt today for still another
witness to the Liggett assassination.
Attorney General H. H. Peterson
expressed hope a third person could
be located before tomorrow to bolster
evidence now built around the stories
of Mrs. Liggett and Andersen.
Jury COnvenes Tomorrow.
The grand jury will convene to-
morrow to consider the Liggett case,
Peterson would not divulge the
identity of the third witness nor would
he say where Andresch was held in
communicate under police protection.
Little significance was attached by
Investigators to reports a note, at
tached to brick, was thrown through
a window of the home of Dave Gar
finkel, a Blumenfeld alibi witness,
purportedly warning him to refrain
from appearing in Blumenfeld'S be-
half. Garfinkel, a barber. told police
the suspect was in his shop at the
time of the Staying.
Alibi Witness QuiZzed.
Whether any discrepancies were
found in Blumenfelds 81 alibi wit
nesses' stories was not disclosed by
Peter Nelson, assistant county attor-
ney, who questioned the group last
night after they were rounded up
following Andresch's reported identi-
fication.
Previously the alibi witnesses had
accounted for Blumenfeld's move
ments during about the time Of the
killing. Blumenfeld has been in
custody since December 9 without
charge. Nor has Mrs. Liggett signed
a complaint against him.
Andresch was found on his fathers
farm at Kimball, Mimi, Sunday, to
where he had fled two days after
the killers car had almost struck
him just before Liggett was moved
down with machine gun fire.
