not contemplate any changes in hour
or wage conditions at this time.

gers union and says it is planned

Starts New Game
With Shell Distributors

Heard about the new silent game
which local motorists are playing?
1t starts today and is more fun than
mystery story. Unlimited prizes
of free oil" are being offered and
everybody with a car is hoping to
be the lucky winner.
Rules are simple with motorists
playing on one side and Shell deal
ers displaying Free Or stickers
on the other All the motorist does
is watch quietly while his car is
being. serViced. Then, if the Shell
dealer forgets to check the oil, the
motorist is given free all the motor
oil he needs to bring his crankcase
oil level up to the full mark, re-
CARELESS of how many quarts it may
take.
That's the big moment in the
game-seeing how much free oil
the motorist might have won if the
dealer remembers not TO forget
The game requires considerable
technique, for it's a terrible strain
trying to look unconcerned as the
dealer approaches the end of his
work. One sweet young thing, who
got started early, said she tore two
handkerchiefs to shreds as she wait
ed to see whether she would win.
Every motorist is entitled to play.
Who will be the first winner?

certain freshness that is very capti-

protesting delegate to the studio. He
was engaged as technical advisor and
showed the technicians how to ac-
complish the tricks without exposing
the method Of illusion. One, the gull
lotine trick, will not be as CORY on the
screen as it was on the stage. The
ban on violent death prohibited show

an illusion, and just as the knife drop

The majority Of the Metro ideas are
concealed until the pictures are fin-
ished for Chertok discovered at the
outset of his ambitious program that
as soon as his topics were announced
certain unprincipled studios rushed
into production with features written
along similar lines. The practice be-
came so general that now no publicity
is released until the shorts are ready
for the theaters.
THE idea Of giving importance to
shorts was inspired by desire to
fight the double bill evil. Some in the
industry believe that the second pic
ture on the screen could be eliminated
by meritorious two-reeler. A year
ago Warmers began developing their
historical shorts which were accorded
such acclaim that they felt it was
waste Of story material to lavish the
plots on the dual-reelers. As a result
"Haym Solomon" was transferred to
the feature program and in recent
days Declaration Of independence" !"
The Life Of Clara Barton" and 1.-THE
Hundred Days" were elevated to the
epic bracket.
THE long anticipated cycle Of the
series pictures, successors to the
wild and woolly serials in which the
heroine was always left in mid-air
after jumping Oh q clin to escape the
villain, has irrived. New announce
ments coupled with the established
series have brought the number up
to 20 which means that more than 4
hundred Of Hoilywood's annual output
of 638 features will be Of the con-
tinued-in-our-next formula. This
means that those customers who be-
come involved with every series will
have to 60 to the theater twice q week
for year In order to keep up with
their favorite heroes and heroines.
