ANSONIA SQUAD
 AT NAUCATUCK
Unbeaten Borough Boys Face Tough Test
 Tonight

Naugatuck, Feb. 5 - An Ansonia team that already has given the Naugatuck high basketball five a close battle will face the Garnet at the local "" this evening, and in the opinion of some, stands a good chance of breaking the locals re- markable record of 13 straight triumphs.
 Naugatuck should be the favorite because of its record and of the fact it is playing on it's home floor but recent play of the home team has been far from impressive and has led to the Surmise if the team is going "stale." Some fans believe it would be an excellent thing if the Garnet should lose a game because it would then be relieved of the strain of keeping a clean record.
 However, the local team is out to win tonight and hopes to triumph by a decisive margin. Ansonia wal loped Naugatuck in football in the past season and deluged the Garnet grid team in 1886 and the local bas- ketball outfit hopes to make up in part for these defeats.
 Naugatuck's next foe after tonight will be Crosby high in game to be played in Waterbury. Crosby has improved by big margin since the Garnet swamped it here and the game should be sizzler.

 Hollywood-Studio rivalry in the scramble for stories is resulting m 8 lot of duplication and some hard feelings between the various lots.
 Warmers have completed a straight dramatic version of Robin Hood, and Metro is planning an operatlc version.
 Twentieth Century-Fox has an nounced plans and casting for a flicker based on the history ot Hud- sons Bay Company, and Paramount says Cecil DeMille will do one ot his spectacles on the same subject.
 Preparations are under way at Paramount for an aviation epic. "Men With Wings" Twentieth-Fox has scheduled Women With Wings" The same studio expects to film a youthful biography of Disraell with Tyrone Power in the lead, although Warmers starred George Arliss in "Disraeli" and won an Academy Award with it.
 Likewise, Universal plans to put Deanna Durbin into a screen bio- graphy of Marie Antoinete as a young girl, although Norma Shearer already is working at Metro i'll complete biography of the same character.
 Take Your Choice
 There are at least two striking parallels between "Jezebel, in which Bette Davis is working, and Gone With the Wind" which Da- vid Selznick expects to make some day.
 The periods are about the same, and Miss Davis plays the role of a girl who's very like Scarlett O'Hara in personality. A third film of the old south may be remake, by D. w. Griffith, of Birth of Ma tion."
 Recently Warmers bought Garden of the Moon," a night club story lad in Los Angeles Cocoanut Grove. Meanwhile Paramount has written a story titled "Cocoanut Grove" And recently we've seen rival Metro and Warner pictures dealing with Alca- traZ.
 You pays your money and you takes your choice.
 Plenty of Help
 Small studios that make westerns usually have two directors and two cameras on the job, so that all the players can be kept busy every min ute.
 Out at Metro, though, they're filming musical horse-opera on a grand scale-"Girl of the Golden West" And so far, eight directors have participated, which is rec- ord.
 Robert z. Leonard directs the story; Albertina Rasch directs the dances; Reginald LeBorg directs the fiesta activities; Dave Weber di- reets Jeanette Macdonald in her western dialect; Joe Rodriguez di- rects the cast in Mexican dialect; Chief Blackwater directs Nelson Ed dy in few lines of Piute which he has to speak; Father John O'Don- nall directs H. B. Warner in his role of Franciscan priest, and also serves as technical director on mis-

YOU could walk across Andorra, A perhaps in half a day, were it not for it's mountains. Its greatest length is scarcely 18 miles, but it is undoubtedly the most complete ly rugged country in the world.
 For actually it is a country, an autonomous and semi-independent state on the Franco-Spanish from tier between the central and east ern Pyrenees. With population of 52o0, an area of 191 square miles, Andorra is really cluster of mountain valleys, no part of which is below 5000 feet Most of it averages 5000 feet.
 Historically, Andorra traces its independence to Charlemagne. Since 1278 it has been ruled joint ly by France and the Spanish bishops of Urgel. A council-gen- eral of 24 members, elected by the heads of the families in Andorra's six parishes, govern the state.
 The councils task is compara- lively simple. Sheep raising is the country's principal industry, although tobacco is cultivated as a cash crop. There is little com merce, no armaments, no mone- tary unit. But Andorra does is sue stamps. One is shown here, picturing the chapel of Meritxell, 1882 stamp.

sions of that period; and Mark Smith directs all the cowboy action.
 Chief Blackwater supplied the sounds for Eddy's Indian speech, but it fell to George Macon of the re- search department to phoneticize the lines so that the actor can learn them. He hopes he can learn them, anyway. All he is supposed to say is Go away so I can be alone with the girl"

 Dead-Pan Buster Is Back
 The once-great Buster Keaton is back in the picture business, but on the other side of the cam- eras this time. He's as dead-pan as ever, but a director now, and he is starting out modestly with short called Life in Some town"
 The picture pokes fun at old laws and freak laws which are on various statute books, and it doubtless was suggested by that eastern town which started out to enforce all its laws in protest against certain blue ordinances.
 In Keaton's short, for example, people get arrested for shaking a rug from a window, allowing dogs out at night without tail-lights, sprinkling lawns and dampening sidewalks, and eating from a clipped dish.
