HOLLYWOOD. - The long arm Of
beneficient coincidence reached out
and tagged red-headed Mary Brodel
the other day, making her an ac-
tress Just as she had come to the
fearful conclusion that she was o
flop.
Originally she hadn't even been
considered for the role OF Louise
Campbell's daughter In Men

fact. Miss Brodel was under con.
tract to Universal. But her OPP
ton was expiring, and soon she
was to be out Of O job without
ever having faced a movie camera.
Meanwhile Marilyn Knowlde1,
one OF the buster child actresses
about Hollywood, had been Sc
lected for the part In Paramount's
aviation picture. Then began q
comedy OF errors; somebody for
got to notify Marilyn's father OF
the choice, and he signed his
daughter for a part at another
studio. One day William Wellman
put In a rush order for Marilyn to
report for work on the Men With

phere was blue for blocks around
when the producer-director was
told that the youngster wouldn't

was just what he wanted.
Through a number Of sequences
Joan did very well indeed. She
was still doing well when the
company motored out TO the mu-
nicipal airport at Inglewood to be-
gin a schedule of night shooting.
pretty soon a couple Of represen-
tatives of the State Board OF Edu-
cation drove up and said: you
can't use this Joan Brodel after
10 o'clock. She's only Is years
old and the law Is very explicit.
Quivering with rage, Wellman
went over to where Mama Brodel
was sitting and looking unhappy
Yes, she admitted, Joan was only

mean anything in Hollywood, and
she had said her daughter was 16
because she understood that Well

The voice of Wild Bill shook the

HISTORICAL OLD GUNS AT
LEWElS

Lewes, Delaware, has not been
without some historical occurrence
es, nor altogether sighted by peo-
pie of renown. In 1912 Lord Ber-
esford laid off Lewes in his flagship
.Belvedere. Beresford demanded 40
bullocks or he would level the
town. He had to fire as the de-
mand was not acceded to. With
the exception Of sending a solid
shot through building then stand
ing on the site of the Virdin house
and knocking a chimney from an
other house, no damage was done.
His bad gunnery drew from the
local poet the couplet: 'The Com
modore and all his men, Crippled a
dog and killed a hen" A battery of
smoothbore 80 Founders brought
from Wilmington to protect Lewes
against Beresford's fleet were
nearly eaten with rust, the barrels,
with muzzles aiming seward, now
lie on the ground in front of the
Virdin house, and are a prolific
source for questions for every
newcomer.
