He should have Jake Schacfer, Jr.'s,

She Won q Contest

Successful, she played Puff" in
Young Man of Manhattan
Several mediocre pictures followed
Her mother asked for a suspension
of contract so that Ginger could ap-
pear in Girl Crazy" on the stage in
New York. 1t ran forty-hve weeks,
and made her famous.
When this show closed, a wire came
from a Hollywood producer, offering
Miss Rogers contract for three pic
lures. Accompanied by her mother,
she left for California.
The future seemed secure. They
reckoned not with the vagaries of
Hollywood.
When the three films had been re-
leased, there was no further interest in
Ginger. Months of idleness followed.
Mrs. Rogers interviewed a pro-
ducer. Her daughters personality was
being wasted. Gould she have a hand
in the next film?
The producer consented. 1t was a
highly successful picture.
-Four others followed. Ginger's pop
ularity mounted.
She was given long-term contract.
Her greatest successes have been as
Fred Astaire's lovely dancing partner.
Mrs. Rogers still attends to all
Ginger's business affairs.
We have been friends for years. l

AS not even writer for THIS WEEK

The telephone rang. Mrs. Rogers
answered.
Uncle Billy would like to have you
rehearse new step. Ginger He wants
you to bring Fred Astaire along"
''All right - tell him I'll be right

Uncle Billy. long past eighty, is still
able to shake "a mean pair of feet"
He is permanent guest of the Rogers

Ginger had had two years OF inten-
sive training when the Charleston
became vogue. Uncle Billy soon
caught the knack OF the dance, and
passed it on to the girl. In another
year he suggested that she be allowed
to appear at local theater.
Her act became sensation.
Henry Santry came to town. He
arranged a Charleston contest in
which the ambitious amateurs of
Texas could participate. BY that time
even the crossing policeman could do
the Charleston, and many hundreds
entered.
A heart breaking test lasted three
weeks before all contestants were
eliminated except three red-headed
children - Ginger another girl and
boy. Uncle Billy remained in the wings
to watch over his pupil.
After hours OF dancing, Ginger won
the contest. Her reward was to be
acclaimed champion Of Texas, and to
receive fve-week engagement at
500 week
At the end of this period Uncle Billy
held a conference with Mrs. Rogers.
That shrewd woman engaged the
red headed boy and the girl who
had been Ginger S nearest rivals in the
contest, to appear with her in dane
ing act in which seven different kinds
of Charleston were introduced. After
appearing in the principal cities OF
Texas, the children were booked over
America for twcnty-four weeks.
Ginger next did Single"
To save her daughter the strain of
too much dancing. Mrs Rogers con-
ceived the idea of having her sing. AL
most overnight the young girls salary
was doubled.
At sixteen she played in St. Louis
with Ed Lowry for nearly seven
months. She was next seen with Willie
Howard in New York. A screen test
was made of her. 1t failed.
Months passed.
Walter Wanger gave her another
screen test.

They have been crowded years -
thousands of matches played before

his wizardry working, he went to a
lead of $40 to SO. Then, as someone
wrote, "Schaefer started playing

end, ran out the game with 1856.

Signals

Good drivers give clear signals.
Yet every year thousands of
people are injured in accidents
caused solely by failure of some
drivers to signal properly.
Clear signals, however, are not
enough. You must first get into
the proper position to stop or
turn if you wish to avoid
accidents.
When turning right, pull into

 Those flares you saw on Mt. Ju- neau at 1:20 this morning. if you happened to be up at such an hour, were the signals which heralded the finding of the Host" boys But here's the story.
 Richard and Leon with Dean Williams left Juneau for Granite Creek about 10 o'clock yesterday morning, planning to come back up over Mt. Juneau. They made it, but near the flag on the mountain Richard and Leon gave out. They were reported just "all in" Dean Williams, still fit to travel, hiked down to the A.

 At 1:2O the blue flares were shot off about half way up the side of Mt. Juneau. AikenS and Morris, having rested after Williams left them, had started down the noun tainside. They had a fire going and were trying to make themselves comfortable when found.
 After some hot coffee and sand wiches whi ic h the firemen took along, the boys were able to accom- pany the searching party down un- der their own power, little the worse for their experience.
 Young Mitchell Danilof also was the object of a search, but Mike just came home. He had gone up the ski trail after telling his parents Ee was bound up Mt Roberts, it was reported to Marshal's office. evening he sent note to his parents by another boy that he was staying at the CCC camp. The other boy forgot to deliver the note, 1t was said, and Mitchell's parents became alarmed. A searching party was authorized by U. S. Commis- sioner J. F. Mullen just as he had been in the Aikens- Morris case, but before it could be organized young Daniloff arrived in the city, safe and sound.
