WINNER
IN BUzzARD'S
ROOST APPEAL
Judge Soper Dissents in
Decree UNFOLDING S. c.
Power Project

ASHEVILLE. Aug. 7. (UP)-
The Fourth Federal Circuit Court
of Appeals, in a two-to-one deci-
sion, yesterday upheld the right
of the Public Works Administra-
ton to supply funds for construc-
ton of the $2,S00,000 Buzzard's
Roost hydro-electric power plant
in Greenwood county, S. c.
Judges John J. Parker and Ell
lott Northcott concurred in up
holding the Federal District court
ruling of Judge J. Lyles Glenn
authorizing PWA Administrator
Harold L. Ickes to make loans
and grants for the publicly owned
power plant. Judge Morris A. So
per dissented.
The ruling, written by Judge
Parker, upheld constitutionality
of the act authorizing use of fed.
eral funds for municipality owned
power plants and defended lckes'
right to choose projects which
would lower power rates to con-
sumers.
Duke Power Co., of Charlotte.
had charged the government with
seeking to enter competition with
private utility companies and &C
cused Ickes of trying to force re-
duction of electric rates through
the PWA power policy.
The Circuit court reached a
similar decision in the Buzzard
Roost case year ago. Duke at
torneys appealed to the Supreme
court and the case was remanded
to District court for rehearing.
Regarding the charge that lckes
sought primarily to reduce rates,
and that such a reduction would
injure private utilities, the court
decided an action authorized by
law could not be enjoined because
of the motive of an administra-
tive office.
If Ickes adopted the policy of
accepting only projects which will
provide rates to the public lower
than competing private enter
prises," the opinion stated, "such
a policy would seem in accord
both with sound finance and the
requirements of justice to the ex-
listing enterprises"
Constitutionality of the PWA
power policy was upheld, as in the
1886 Circuit court ruling, on the
ground that it falls within the
right of congress to tax and spend
for the general welfare.
Yesterdays decision came three
days after presentation of argu-
ments in the case before the three
Judge court.

as to the completeness of the clas-

T HAPPENED IN HOLLYWOOD
How To Pinch Off a Mood "A British Husband Who Understands Hollywood Sonia Skating On Skinned Mk

as nothing when Flynn walked in bearing the livid scar, presumably tracey by a Spanish bullet. It was a good thing there weren't any Spaniards, either Red or Rebel, in sight right then. Warner would have taken 'em apart with his bare hands. Digs From Ditches
 The sour old London drama critic, St. John Ervine (who lives at Honey bitches, Seaton, Devon) has been Snarling in print again about our screen players.
 He wrote: Hollywood cinema
 stars visiting England are illit-
 crate and half-savage women
 who have been dragged out of
 sIum in the middle west or
 novels in the Ukraine, and after
 being boiled and baked and
 generally pushed about by
 manipulative surgeons are let
 loose on the screen to the great
 ediflcatiOn of half-wits of both
 sexes"
 Peculiarly, though, MT. Ervine's countrymen continue to patronize American pictures to the exclusion and ruination of their own industry. And their own topnotch star, Oracle Fields, who also happens to be the worlds highest-paid actress, is a former Lanchashire cotton mill worker.
 Makeup For Ice
 There's only one way to make ice look right on the screen and still be right for skating. It has to be clouded with something to remove the glare and reflections of the many lights. Also, unless it is col- ored to milky white it looks jet black to the camera.
 So for some of the scenes in Sonia Henie's pictures, they add skinned milk to the water that is frozen for the rink. Not since Zieg- field dunked Anna Held in beauty bath has so much milk been bought for any actress.
 For "Thin Ice," Miss Henie will do five skating numbers, including ballet, waltz, fox-trot (with Tyrone Power), and her famous swan dance. For the latter scene the ice will be black, and really black this time, because they'll have to put in some thing to kill the glare and ref1ect- ions.

 Tomorrow the State will present another blue-ribbon twin feature entertainment headlined by "Once A Doctor" starring Jean Muir and Donald Woods.
 It graphically portrays the vindi- cation of a conscientious but mis- judged young doctor, part played with rare understanding by Don aid Woods, who will be remembered for his performances in Anthony Adverse" and in "As the Earth Turns" with Miss Muir.
 An entirely new and different Jean Muir is seen in "Once a Doctor" On the screen she has been farmers daughter, a college girl, socialite and the sort of girl who wears fiat heels. But that is past history. ts>
 The story is packed with thrills and surprises and provides screen fare that is easily digested and completely enjoyed.
 The companion feature will be "As Good AS Married"
 John Boles, Doris Nolan, Walter pidgeon and Tala Birell head the cast, with such well known and bril- liant performers as Alan Mowbray, Ernest Cossart, Dorothea Kent, Joyce Compton, and Esther Ralston in support. Miss Nolan, fresh from her triumph in Universars musical extravaganza, "Top Of The Town, has role which affords every op- portunity for the display of her high talent for comedy.

Wallace Beery, whose human, d o W mt o-earth characterizations have made him one of the most beloved of screen actors, is starred in Don Marquis famous comedy Good Old Soak" which opens a three-day engagement at Loew's Poli tomorrow.
 A smash hit as stage play, pack ed with good-natured chuckles and 8 heart-tugging climax, it is per- feet vehilce for Beery
 Good Old Soak" is a comedy melodrama which revolves around a simple old reprobate who has more virtues and strength of chara- cter than he is given credit for. When he realizes that his family is in danger of suffering 8 great disaster he rises to the emergency with true nobility. Hilarious comedy and tense drama are experienced as the plot unfolds.
 Wally plays the part of Clem Hawley, the Old Soak, who has sold his business in order to have more time in which to search for liquid refreshment which prohibition has made elusive. It is the village speak easies which are responsible for the Old Soak's downfall.
 Typically small-town in atmos- phere, much of the action takes place in the Clem Hawley home at Bay View, Long Island.
 A race track sequence, filmed at Santa Anita, is one of the most thrilling, as well as educational, ever shown on the screen.
 Supported by a hand-picked magnificent cast, including that old favorite of stage and screen George Sidney, Judith Barrett, recent find singing and swinging her way into your heart, Una Merkle, who gives her usual side-splitting performance in her inimatable performance of Nellie, Eric Linden, fast becoming one of the most popular young actors on the screen, giving sen- sitive warmth to the role of Clem- mic, Beerys son.
 Thousands will thrill to the red- blood drama of Ireland when 1t was a "River of Unrest" which Polls presents on this big double-feature program.
