ROME. Italy, Aug. 20.-The re- mentioned possibility that Italy may withdraw from the League of Nations was the days feature of the Ethiopian border dispute news as governmental officials of all important European nations ad- mitted that the current trouble was a stern test for the peace agency.

Yankees Look
Bad Against
Griffnnen
BY FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL

NEW YORK, July 27.-The
roar Of Heinie Manush's bat,
blasting home runs into the right
field bleachers at Yankee Stadium
yesterday shook the Yankees into
second place in the American
League pennant race. The Rup-
pert forces may not regain their
lost position this season, for
against the Griefs they looked
like anything but pennant win
nerS.
For the day at least, the pitch.
ing of the Yankees was inferior
to that of Whitley Hayes, and it
has been the history of this sea-
son in Gotham that when the
Yankees do not get the better
pitched game, they cannot win.
Hayes, contrary to the run of
Washington pitchers, improved as
he went along. He was rushed
into action to relieve Eddie Linke
before he had a chance to prop
erly warm up. The Yankees got
five hits off him in two innings,
but when he started to pitch in
the last five frames the Yanks
got three blows.
There was no little controversy
on point of rule. Daniel M.
Daniel, one of New York's best
baseball writer's, decided that
Hayes was the winning pitcher.
Linke was ahead when removed
because of accident, and it was
argued that he should be ruled
winning pitcher. There seems lit.
tie doubt that Hayes really de.
served the honor. Linke had
passed four men and allowed one
hit in less than two innings. It
may be argued fairly that he was
lucky to escape with his life.
There is no argument on Hayes.
He was in form.
Broaca started trouble for him.
self in the first inning. He passed
Myer and then Powell hit a
triple. You should have seen
jake carry the mail on that hit.
It is just my guess that one
half of the crowd went sick when
Linke was hit by Hills drive.
Eddie spreadeagled there on the
hill. then half arose like
wounded man to pitch on his
face-finished for the day.
DR.. William CasSebaum, of the
Yankee staff, is the authority for
the statement that if that ball
had struck Linke just two inches
farther to the side, it would have
been fatal.
Manush went right back to the |
fence Cor Lazzeris shot to left in |
the seventh inning.
Frank Crosetti had double and
a single as his share of the days |
loot. Il real good ball player is
Crosetti.

Days Film Work Can Be Shown
on Screen in Three Minutes
Shortening of Picture Production Time Means Saving of
Thousands of Dollars in Cost.

HOLLYWOOD, Dec i6.-Despite
efforts of efficiency experts and
mechanical wizards, producers of
firSt-class pictures are unable to
record more than three minutes of
finished film in an average eight
hour day; and a fortune awaits the
person who is able to raise the
average.
The customary time allotted fea-
ture production is 80 days, and the
cost of daily operation runs into
thousands of dollars. Consequently,
if a producer is able to save a day
or two on his schedule, it means
praise from his superiors.
Stephen r. Roberts is regarded as
one of the fastest directors in Holly
wood, and so is able to speak with
authority on this subject of so-called
waste.
A Minimum of Waste
Despite appearances to outsiders
who do not understand the diff
culties of picture making, there is a
minimum of waste in studios today.
Talking pictures brought an entire
ly new technique into the business,
and whereas it used to take as many
as go days for a big feature with

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 6.-(NEA)-
The way to find Bing Crosby OH the
Paramount lot is to look for shiny
blue bicycle with his name on it,
together with the word "verboten."
Lesser stars may have their limou-
sines for riding a few yards from
dressing rooms to stage, but Bing
bowls about under his own power.
His job today is sitting in life

blond Ida Lupino and Warbling a
Crosbyesque ditty called MY Heart

ant enough assignment, but it's less
fun when ones stoWaWay rendezvous
is being closely observed by cameras,
directors, and dozens of production
aides.

just sits and looks appreciative.
I have it on her own authority that
she could sing and dance II Jney q

long line of singing, dancing,
and acting Lupinos out of Italy by

"We were in Naples at the time,
Mr. Holmes related recently, land
for several days prior to the attack,
the entire city carried on as though
it were a genuine war.
mo lights were permitted; Win
doWs and doors were darkened, and
blue paper was pasted over the
headlights of all vehicles to allow
scarcely any light to pass through,
which kept all night traffic crawling
at a snails pace.
when the attack did come, it
was startlingly real. Squadron
after squadron of big Caproni
bombers roared over the city,
dropping smoke bombs, while the
anti aircraft. artillery set up a ter
rife racket.
"Ambulances raced through the
streets, icking up victims at every
corner. The victims were chosen
at ranc )m and, despite their pro-
tests, we're tossed bodily into the
vehicles and hurried to distant

Wayne King
Refused to
BeOrthodox
That's The Reason He Has
Remained True to
WaItZeS.

Those. who have listened. enrap-
tured. to the waltz strains of Wayne
Kings orchestra, may have won-
dered just what kind of fellow this
aristocratl of band leaders is. He
is to playi at the Indiana Roof to-
morrow.
Well, to begin, he was just a
music-lovilag kid. like lot of us.
He organized an orchestra. 1t was
pretty good, he thought. But he
was faced with the problem of fall
ing in line with the majority of
band leaders, and playing the rou-
tine fast ana hot numbers, inter-
spersed with ballads.
The reason MIR. King didn't want
to be like everybody else in his line.
was because Will Rogers, his boy
hood idol, once told him the prime
requisite Of success was to "main-
tain ones individuality at all times"
So Wayne King decided to remain
Wayne King. and not become an
other Tom, Dick or Harry with a
band.
True to Waltzes
He chose the waltz as his theme
song-no particular waltz at first,
just any good waltz The idea went
over. He picked out The Waltz I
Saved For You" as bis theme and
stuck to playing a majority of
waltzeS for his radio and stage
listeners.
Off-stage, Wayne King is quite
different from the suave stick WELD
er one sees in front of the orchestra.
He spends all his spare time on his
farm in Wisconsin. There. he works
full days with the rest of the crew
which care for the crops.
When engagements prohibit time
on the farm, Mr.. King plays few
rounds of golf, at which he is said
10 be- proficient. So don't be sur
prised if Mr.. King shows up at the
Roof ballroom tomorrow night with
baton, saXophone, golf putter
ard a hoe.
