rectories in the world is that
used by the Hollywood STU
~ dios to locate trained ami
mails and rent them for various pro-
auctions. 1t ranges from A to z, with
the agouti, small rodent, at the be-
ginning, and the zebu of crossword
puzzle fame at the end.
Within the compass of this directory
may be found practically every ami
NAL known to zoology, as we'll as al
most any bird or reptile that might
conceivably be wanted for a picture
All the common specimens, lions,
tigers, leopards, wolves, foxes, are list
ed with the addresses of their owners.
More uncommon species include the
anabus, species of ape; the cacti
mundis, iguanas. lemurs, llamas, pee
carries, WildebeeSteS and tapirs. Ev-
erything is there but the werewolf
and the studios know how to estab-
lish quick contact with Henry Hull
or Boris Karloff.
Some of the animals are raised and
owned by people who have them for
pets. Others are handled by firms
who make business of catering to
the studios. The A. G. Barnes circus,
the California Geological Gardens in
Los Angeles, various lion, alligator and
ostrich farms, all do steady business
with the studios. In addition, there
are dozens of trained horse and dog
concerns.
The animals crop up in unexpected
places in pictures. For instance. an
agouti appeared in THE Unholy
Three" in the pet store. A rhinoceros
was imported from Germany by the
Metro-Goldwyn-N yer studios and
will be ridden by Johnny Weissmuller

"Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra has
been sort of Illustration in my life
since I was child" explained Miss
Hayes, "and I'm having the time of
my life at the prospect of playing

chose Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra
as the subject of a theme. 1t was
precocious of me, know, but as a
small child I was mad about the
theater, and when I was 6 the man
ager of a Washington stock company
had persuaded my mother to let me
play child parts.
But you can't begin to imagine
the CONSERVATION it caused in the
convent when it was discovered that
Mary Hayes Brown had been read

the good sisters to be a hereto, an
infldel and sinner He was simply
taboo as reading matter for girls in
converts.
MY contrition at shocking the
school did not alter my adulation
of Shaw or my heroine-for Cleo
patra was definitely the role dreamed
to play some day. I'd already vowed
to be an actress
"You can imagine then my delight
when the Theater Guild called me
or the phone one day years afterward
and asked me to play Cleopatra in
the Shaw play. Shaw's Caesar and
Cleopatra was to be the opening
play in the newly dedicated Guild
Theater. Talk about wish ful1llment
That production had a most graft
flying run. 1t was one of the greatest
thrills in my career. So much so
that have always wanted to play
Cleopatra again And so, too,
I have been always looking for the
Caesar to play it with me-

GLEN ECHO PARK Is entering II

GLEN ECHO PARK is entering the
final weeks Of the most successful
season in its history, and swimming,
dancing and breath-taking rides con-
tinue to divert thousands daily at
Washington's premier Summer play
ground. Crystal Pool, with water pure
as the water you drink, remains q
prime favorite these hot days and
nights. Scientifically operated and
supervised by Boyd Hickman and his
courteous crew of Red Cross guards,
the pool is an irresistible rendezvous
from early morning until late at night.
Especially popular with the younger
set is the seashore sand beach ad-
Joining the pool, where a Summer
coat may be had for nothing-a coat
of tan.
Dancing remains one of Glen Echo's
major diversions. In the Spanish
Garden ball room, cooled by invigor-
ating breezes from the Potomac River,
approximately 1000 couples dance
every night except Sunday to the Tilt
ing strains Of David MacWillams'
merrymakers.
Yesterday at Marshall Hall Park,
when the Oklahoma State Society
held its first annual watermelon fes-

nif1cant mark, in that this event
celebrated the sooth organization out
ing to be held on the Wilson Line
steamer, City of Washington, since
the inception Of service on the Po-
tomac River in 1880. The reason for
the unusual popularity of these trips
with Washington organizations is that
an excellent opportunity is presented
for a pleasant Summer get-together,
as well as to raise money.
