sixth picture in a series of "Hopalong Cassidy
Westerns for Producer Harry Sherman.
Boyd is the hero in "Bar 20 Rides Again," but
hero with difference.
The actor himself is enjoying his distinction
"The script writer" he said, mot only gave me
limp leg which makes me hop-along, but he
threw in a Napoleonic complex well. And while
they have fixed us heroes up swell, they have also
put some deft touches to the villain.
"It used to be-" Boyd went on, "you could recog
nize the heavy the minute you spotted him. He al
ways wore a black mustachio leered at everybody
in sight and lived on diet of unpalatable scenery.
Today in the new Westerns, the heavy has right
to live, to laugh and to love just the same as the
hero. And I'm glad to say this makes it dandy for
the hero, because he doesn't have to work himself
to death.
"The only phase of Western pictures that runs
true to FORM" Boyd continued, "is that authentic
scenic backgrounds are still used Some of the
most beautiful scenic photography ever filmed finds
it's way into these Western pictures"
DRODUCER HARRY SHERMAN, in his desire
for the real thing, took his "Hopalong" COM
panies to the Mother Lode country up in the High
Sierras for the outdoor sequences. Later the COM
pany dropped down to Lone Pine that little desert
town within the shadow of old Mt. Whitney. There
the cameramen delighted in their shots because
Funeral Range and Death Valley loomed in the
distance
At each location, the companies lived for months
in a tented city of their own making
pORTABLE radios, portable power plants for
lights and a portable heating plant with hot
and cold showers gave the tented city all the COM
forts of home
The company kept in touch with the Hollywood
studio by short wave sending and receiving radio
set. Food was trucked in daily over narrow noun
tain roads. A modern field kitchen and cook tent
seating 100 technicians, actors, cameramen and
studio workers. with staff of walters in attend
ance, was provided. chef prepared the meals.
Maybe you think we didn't eat like horses"
added Boyd, "in that mountain air."
Meanwhile, similar locations were sought by
other Hollywood groups including the "Treachery
Rides the Range company, starring Dick Foran,
and Mother Lode" with Richard Dix and Leila
Hyams in the lead roles.
Ideal settings, they found were miles from a
railroad where the landscape was free of telephone
and light wires with the age-old mysterious noun
tain ranges forming the background.

Washington by ernm n t
action, perhaps direct interven-
ton by President Roosevelt, AS
Sistant Secretary of Labor Edward
F. McGrady prepared to leave here
today for the National Capitol.
He booked passage on plane
leaving here at noon following
failure of his efforts to bring dis
putting shippers and representa-
tives of seven striking maritime
unions together in a peace pact.
McGrady was bitterly disap-
pointed at failure of the Steam
Schooner Operators and Masters,
Mates and Pilots Union to get to-
gether for peace negotiations.
He had hoped to break the dead
lock in a meeting between the
steam schooner operators and the
lone dissenting union, holding up
coastwise traffic.

Union Seeks to Recapture
New York Headquarters

NEW YORK, Nov. 8 GN.S).
Fears Of violence in New York's
outlaw maritime strike grew today
as 200 loyal members Of the
international Seamen's Union
planned to march to their head
quarters and attempt to capture
it from insurgent strikers, led by
Joseph Curran.
Loyal members of the union,
who want to break the strike,
hired a hall where jobs were to
be offered to seamen, but no
sooner was business under way
than the strikers, shouting threats,
took it over.
Meanwhile, the strike continued
to speed in important ports, and
there appeared little hope Of an
early settlement.
In New York, Special Prosecutor
Thomas E. Dewey, refused re-
quest of John Franklin, president
of the United States lines, to in
vestigate the strike.
Franklin charged that water
pront agitators mad precipitated
