ing.
When the troupe went to its
setting in the mountains above
Big Bear, Cal, the icicles had
formed during the night. Before
Director Henry Hathaway could
start scenes with Sylvia Sidney,
Henry Fonda, Fred MacMurray
and Fred Stone, the icicles had to
be removed carefully from the set
so they would not shatte- on
the floor and melt under the
strong electric lights.

when at grips with life. Howard
portrays the part Of a weary mis-
fit who, while hitch hiking across
the country, stops at a wayside
gas station. A short-lived, hectic,
romance with the ambitious artist
daughter of the proprietor follows.
The ending, while a surprise,
proves the only one to be expected
with such a study. =
Both Mr.. Howard and Miss
Bette Davis give their very best
in the playing Of these respective
parts. Howard's sensitive feeling
plus his restrained voice raise him
to even higher peaks.

button string?
Coiled round and round
49, under q glass case on the
second floor of the Old National Mu-
scum is recent and one of its oldest
accessions-a button string.
1t is, according to the modest label,
memory collection" the gift of Mrs
D. c. Yates Of Roanoke, Va. Spe-
cifically, it consists of 13-foot string
of more than 1000 buttons, just but
tons-piquant ones.
When Mrs Yates was Bunny Blon-
dell of Abingdon, Va, and a girl of s.
that was almost 80 years ago-She
began to string with childish fingers
the buttons which came into her
hands. For rs years she added buttons
to an ever-lengthening string
Not long ago friend of Mrs. Yates
dropped into the Office of Frederick L.
Lewton, curator of the division of
textiles at Smithsonian, under whose
dominion are exhibit cases showing
button evolution and manufacture.
The friend made known that Mrs.
Yates had wished to bequeath her un-
usual collection to Smithsonian when
she died. Although there was not any
specific section of the museum where
such an item of Americana might be
kept, Lewton arranged for its ac-
ceptance. In due time the string Of
buttons came.
From first fancy button-an entire
small polished shell. pierced for sew
ing on q dreSs-to last chromium
"moderne" affair, the collection de-
picts the development of buttons down
through the span Of a long lifetime
What sentiment may be connected
with every button on the string only
Mrs. Yates can know. One might
hazard guess when, from time to
time, he comes across, in the string
brass and gold uniform buttons from
the city Of Roanoke police, various
social club regalia. the Virginia Mill
tary Institute, the United States Army
and the British Navy, and one button
bearing the motto. Sic Semper
Tyrannis." beneath the coat-of- arms
of the State of Virginia.

We feel that immediate action is neces-
sary.
I'VE are suggesting that the owners
of the toll-bridge franchise be per-

bridge and operate it as toll bridge,
holding in allegiance for the time be-
ing the question of purchasing the

Attempts to use the railroad bridge
we're blocked by failure of Maryland
