digger can't get much work done
without little privacy.
FURTHERMORE there is fellow
who travels with the girls who
is known as q very discouraging in
dividual. Once they register in q
hotel he won't allow calls to come
in from the outside and they can't
get out at night without his okay.
And whenever they buy anything
while in hotel the girls have to pay
cash, which seems a sad state Of
affairs for any golddigger worthy Of
the name.
Travelling with this "Golddiggers"
troupe are three of Hollywood's
pleassntest young people. The girls
are Jeanne Madden and Rosalind
Marquis and each OF them Is what is
known as a regular guy. So is Fred
Lawrence, the troupe's master of
ceremonies.
Jeanne is the young lady who went
from opera training to leading role
in stage Struck" When she made
a personal appearance with the film
recently in her home town. Scranton,
Pa, police had to be called to keep
back the mob, though Jeanne mod
estly admits that three members Of
the crowd of several thousands were
extras hired by Warner Bros, so she
can't take all the credit. She plans
to 60 back to opera, which Is q nice
bit of good fortune for opera.
Miss Marquis halls from some town
in Illinois, sort of a wide place in
the road, she admits, and she got to
Hollywood through the radio sing
ing-beauty contest route. She has
comedy role in "Golddiggers of
1887" which, she says, is a nice part,
though she hasn't seen the completed
film, since that's a privilege only al
lowed the stars. She'll have the
privilege some day.
1t is rumored that all of this fes-
tivity and pomp and circumstance
surrounding the appearance here of
the "Golddiggers of 1887" has some-
thing to do with a motion picture
named "Golddiggers of 1887" which is
going to play the Earle Theater some
time around Christmas. This, OF
course, is only a rumor.

+. ELlWOOD ALLEN
SCORES IN "GRUMPY"
Pierce Hall Players Present Percy
val Opus in Very Creditable
Manner.

ANohhC4s
GRUMPY" otherwise Mr.. Bulli-
want, clever though crotchety
English country gentleman, fidgeted
about the boards of Pierce Hall last
evening in the person of F. Ellwood
Allen as the Pierce Hall Players pro-
duction OF the Horace Hodges-T. Wig
ney Percyval opus continued q process
sion Of meritorious efforts by the
church group. Although presenting
rather less difficult q dramaturgic
hurdle than some of the players pre-
vious concerns, Grumpy" adds an en-
tirely creditable chapter, with the
usual panegyric for directorial skill by
Howard ("Scoop"D Wentworth.
The aforementioned Mr.. Allen was
entrusted with the title role in a "one-
man" play and discharged his duties
in completely proper and able manner,
losing no time in molding a character
ization and sedulously preserving it
through the four acts. Not an easy
task, this delineation of retired GRIM
inal lawyer, hard shell of irritability
shielding an affable heart, who finds
the key to mystery in a white camelia,
recovers a diamond of fabulous worth
stolen from the person of his intended
son-in-law. The actor last evening,
however, did a superb job.
The unfortunate custodian of an
uncut gem destined for his company's
Offices in London furnished the op-
portunity for dependable Frank s.
Koonce to snatch second honors+an
effortless and well-read performance.
Hildegrade Gray played Virginia Bulli-
want, whose possession of the tell
tale blossom leads culprit Frank Jaunt
into the trap prepared. Both con-
tributed adequate efforts. In an array
OF domestics, Evelyn Wynn stood out,
partly because of fetching costume
mostly because of a properly frothy
portrayal as the young maid who ties
the all-important hair around
camelia.

Combing Natures Hair

An interesting controversy has grown out of the WPA park projects in many parts of the country. The WPA gangs commissioned to slick up city and subur- ban parks have gone to 1t with such enthusiasm that big roar has come from nature-lovers. The latter complain that the workers are spelling the parks by walling in brooks, scraping hillsides, removing all evidences of decay including valuable humus necessary for plant growth, and in general so washing Na' ture's face and combing her hair, and so on, that everything is over-civiliZed and spoiled. Moreover, they insist, much Of this work permanently destroys park values, because the excessive cleaning-up starts erosion, so that the soil is impov- erished and flowers and shrubs may dis appear entirely
 The WPA foremen reply that if this is so, 1t isn't their fault = that they take orders from the local park authorities and carry out local policies. Probably in most cases 1t is lack of proper attention and supervision all round. In any event. these over-zealous workers are doing what too many private owners do in trying to improve their own properties. Genuine improvement usually requires close co- operation with Nature, and sympathetic cooperators are often surprised to dis cover how well Mother Nature knows what she's about.

Stratosphere Life Screen

Among the many strange facts dIscov- cred or verified by the voyage of Ma tional Geographic Society balloon up into the Stratosphere last November is the "ozone bclt". A report of 1t has just been made. If 1t were not for this layer of ozone, or "heavy oxygen" which begins about ten miles above the earth and ex- tends up for few miles, none of us could live. We should all be destroyed in few minutes by certain deadly ultraviolet rays which are now screened off by the ozone. They might destroy all living things. If there had always been a free path for them to the earth, life here might never have arisen.
 On the other hand, says the report, if this thin screen of ozone were q little henser. and absorbed little more than it eoes Of the ultraviolet light shot at us n0m the sun, "the human race would porbabiy de out for lack Of the essential htamin D, the "sunghlne yitamin'" And even if VIC found some way of c0mpcnsat-

Although early predictions this week were that ex-Senator Frederick c. Wal colt of Norfolk would be a delegate-at- large to the g.o.p. national convention in Cleveland next month, this didn't come to pass. Evidently MT. Walcott, who is at present State Welfare Commissioners, didn't feel that his duties would permit his attendance or else he has decided that, inasmuch as Governor Cross, a dem- ocrat, reposed so much confidence in him, a republican, as to name him to the highly-important Welfare Commission, he should retaliate in kind by abstaining from too active participation in party politics. If so the gentleman from Nor folk is deserving of much praise. Some people have been wondering why the re- publicans get 10 votes in the national convention, whereas the democrats only have sixteen. The apportionment is based on the same system, save that Con- necticut republicans get a bonus of three delegates because Connecticut went re- publican, so far as it's presidential vote was concerned, in 1882.

America, only the sons of the rich men and well-to-do parents arc privileged enough to go to college. The sons of the working man, the factory worker, the pick-and-Shovcl man cannot go to college. That blessed priviledge is only for the son of the idle rich, says 6 critic of our institutions, 50 it would seem plaus- ible that the privileged boys who can go to college, would have Q feeling of gratitude to their country, and to those veterans Of the wars who made the existence of the country possible by sacrifice and death on or off the battlcnelds.
 Certainly and why not should the Veterans of Future wars re- fuse to enter 6 public forum with the officers of the Veterans of Fora eign Wars of the United States, to whom ana to all veterans of the wars of this country they owe a public apology.
 Where arc the patriotic instruc- tors the teachers of the history of the United States, whose duty 1t is to mould the uniformed characters of our future George Washingtons, Theodore RooseveltS, Patrick Hem rvs. Abraham Lincolns, and other great and noble souls who have gone and will not pass this way againl Not long ago three Mexican horse thieves were hung for cattle stealing on our side of the interna- tional border. Their last words were a ringing shout; "Viva Mexi- col" Even a thief can be loyal to his country and his flag.
