When Angel" takes day of, it means an of f-day for the rest of the town and a laugh spree and guffaw-picnic for every one else seeing Ginger Jane With CTS in her latest Twentieth Century Fox hit, Angels Holiday, opening at the Loew-Poli theater tomorrow.
 Filmland's most mischievous miss looses no chance of indulging in her usual madcap mishaps in a new role as amateur sleuth and newspaper reporter. Her best friends and severest critics in the new film venture are Robert Kent, Joan Da- wis and Sally Blanc, featured in the cast supporting the young star.
 A long nose for news and clues precipitates Jane into the faked disappearance, for publicity purpos- es, of a movie queen, played by Sally Blanc, and she proceeds to gum up the works. Both Jane and her movie star are considerably surprised, however, when gang of real bandits steps in and conducts 8 genuine Kidnapping, holding Sally for ransom and Jane and Robert as hostages.
 The climax is the rip-roaringest rampage in which the harum-scar- um half-pint of film dynamite has ever indulged.

Overweight Viewed
 As Serious Problem
"Girth and Deatll'' Linked in Statistical Report;
 Watch Your Weight, Avoid Weakening Diets,

New York, N. Y, June 15-A baro-
 meter, which measures by inverse
 ratio the chances of surviving to
 the Biblical three-score-and-ten or
 even longer, has been found in the
 belt line. Statisticians o fthe Metro politan Life Insurance Co.,, in re- port which they have called "Girth and Death" state that one of the most fundamental and valuable con- tributionS of life insurance StatiS- tics to public health is the estab- lishment of the fact that body girth and length of life vary inversely with each other. The serious at tention now being given the prob lem of overweight, they say, affords one of the chief hopes of increas- ing the average length of life, since
 the reduction of excess weight will cut the mortality rate from the in- portant diseases of middle and later life, against which the least pro-
 gress has so far been made.
 Watch Your Weight The insurance company statiSti- cians report that distinctly obese
 men, that is, those who are 35 per cent or more above average weight, have mortality more than one and one half times that of men of aver
 age weight. This finding holds even among insured overweights, who are
 specially selected by medical exam nations as free from any other Ser- ious impairment.
 Higher than average mortality prevails among overweights gen.
 orally, they find. Men, from 25 to
 34 per cent overweight, have an ex- cess mortality of 45 per cent, while among those IS to "A per cent over weight the excess mortality is 30 per cent. Even those who are only
 slightly overnight pay the penalty by a mortality rates higher than that for men of average weight.
 After maturity, underweight is

 So many letters protesting the ap- pearance in a picture of Gypsy Rose Lee are pouring into the studio that a placating form letter has been composed to answer them. The re- sponse begs that she be judged on her merits as a dramatic actress and not as a former burlesque stripper.

cording to age, as follows: up to age 30, slight overweight; ages 30 to 39, average weight; ages 40 to 49, slight underweight, ages 50 and over, an appreciable degree of underweight.
 Overweight
 Among overWeights the So-called "pot-bellied" variety has the high est mortality. Overweights, whose abdominal girth was more than 2 inches greater than chest girth at full expansion, were found to have an extra mortality of approximately 50 per cent, over and above the ex- cess mortality associated with over- weight itself. Tall overweights, with relatively long trunks and short legs, did better than other tall overweights; but among medium height and short overweights, the reverse is true. The ig-chested overweight showed up less favorably than those with smaller chest girths, while the large-boned over- weight, as a general thing, was found superior to the f1abbier type,
 BlOOu FrcSSure
 High blood pressure, the study shows, is more than two and half times as common among over- weights as among persons of aver age build, while albuminuria and glycosuria are nearly twice as ire quent. Most of the important dis eases of adult life are the specific hazards of the overweights. Their mortality from heart disease and from cerebral hemorrhage is nearly one and one half times that of average weights and nearly twice of underweights. For angina pectoris the mortality of overweights is more than twice that of average weights and two and one half times that of underweights. The diabetes toll of the fat ranges from two and g half to 13 times that of the lean depending on the degrees of fatness and leanness. Overweights are also more susceptible to fatal accidents and are more inclined to suicide than those of average weight.
 The Statisticians place some of the blame for overweight on the Ma chine Age. Americans, they say "are relatively big eaters. Machines reduce the energy requirements ir labor and in practically all gainfu occupations, in the factory, on the farm and even in the home, while in the field of sports we are toe often spectators rather than parti- cipants. The result is that increase in weight with age in common, anc although the per capita consumption of food has not increased, and may have actually decreased, 1t has moi kept pace with the decided reduction in the food requirements of the average individual"
 Diets, Drugs
 While deduction in overweight ii recommended as highly desirable, the warning is given that reducing diets and medical treatment for obesity should be taken under a physicians orders and prescription. Fantastic reducing diets and reducing drugs in vogue in recent years, the warn ing continues, may reduce resistance | to disease and bring death instead of reduction in weight.

Couple Welded For Publicity Ask Annulment

Edna Jmdd of Naugafuck now realizes that publicity sometimes leads to headaches.
 At Portland, Maine, yesterday she petitioned superior court for an annuIment of her marriage to LOyle Judd of FreepOrt, Maine which took place at old Orchard in 1894, Gas 8 publicity stunt to attract the public to . certain marathon dance" The ceremony was performed, she claims in the complaint, when she was IS, and Judd, 19, and neither had parental consent.
 Before the performance of the ceremony, which took place on the dance floor amid the applause of a large group of spectators, there was "a definite under standing that said ceremony could be immediately annulled," she said. Since their marriage the two have not lived together, ac- c0rding to the petitioner.
 Waterburians witnessed Q sini- lar marriage performance in Eagles hall here last year when two of the contestants in the dance grind went through the nuptiaI ceremonies as a publicity stunt. It is believed, however, that the two married here lived to- gether. The couple married here were also the winners of the mar athOn.

EAST END DOG IS
 POISONED AGAIN
Owner Believes Someone MaIiciOusIy Attempting
 to Kill Animal

In answer to the complaint ofsan irate dog owner, members of the local police force, and the local division of the Connecticut Humane society today launched an investi- gation to determine if some resi- dent of the East End is maliciously attempting to kill the con1plainant's dog.
 Twice during the past two months the animal, three year old Samoy, has been placed under the care of Dr. Richard T. Gilyard and treated for arsenic poisoning. On the first occasion the treatment required II days, and in this instance, Dr, Gil- yard reports that he will not be cer- tain that the dog can recover until after three more days. The latest poisoning is said to have taken place Saturday night.
 Walter Hardisty, of the Connecti- cut Humane society informed the complainant that he would inves- tigate immediately and advised her to complain also to the police. The dog is owned by Mrs. Edwina Tracy Lynch of 58 Albion street.
