Archbishop John J. Glennon Of
the st. Louis Archdiocese:
HE sought peace while all the
world around him wanted war, and
preached love and fraternity to the
nations that were aroused through
mutual hatred"
Archbishop NIFTY Of San Fran
cisco:
He has been a tower of strength
in a changing world. - He en-
couraged all new things, that are
good, as evidenced in the honor he
| paid to men of science and in the
use he made of the instruments OF
science, notably the radio
DIR. Rufus NJ. Jones, prominent
Philadelphia Quaker:
He has in the main made noble
effort to clarity difficult issues and
he has worked valiantly for peace
and good will. Those of us who do
not recognize him as head of our
church may we'll call him person
of pure and noble character"
Dennis Cardinal Dougherty, Arch

His pontificate began in trou-
blous times and throughout it he
has had to contend with the perse-

cially in Russia, Mexico and Spain
1t is we'll known how valiantly he
defended the interests of Chris
tianity. especially against Com

come known as mastery treatments
of vital subjects of the day.
Since he has stood up for JUS

a loss to the world"
DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, pres

His Holiness was not only a
great ecclesiastic, but a great states

said: La guerre est la chasse de

Archbishop John T. McNicholas of
the Cincinnati Diocese:
The world in the death of Pope

Gov. Herbert H. Lehman of New

Role He Didn't Play
Brings Him Fame

Roscoe Karns has played featured
roles in more than 100 motion pic
tures-and yet he is best remem-
bered for a characterization he
didn't play in series of pictures in
which he didn't appear!
It's an enigma that Karns, cur
rently working in "Everything's on
Ice" has never been able to figure
out satisfactorily and he's had
plenty of time to think about it
because the trouble started more
than Is years ago.
Karns says for all those years,
friends, fans and casual acquaint-
ances insist on recalling his charac-
terization as fight manager in the
Leather Pusher" series of films,
which introduced Reginald Denny
to the screen in the silent era.
Karns wasn't in those pictures. The
role was portrayed by Hayden
Stevenson and the two men don't
even look alike.
1--we never been able to dope it
out" Karns says. Sometimes I
wonder who's crazy-me or the other
fellows. Believe it or not, when I
went to work on 'Everything's on
Ice,' an assistant cameraman greeted
me with:

since we worked on the Leather
Pushers" together!"

wits at all-and especially on a
hot day.
And now, any one who has
stuck this far will be rewarded
df that's the right worO with the
story of Harry Reiners' frustra-
ton, a typical case and nice for
brooding upon.
His job is to make the public
Bachelor M h er" conscious,
Bachelor Mother" of course, being
the name of the film which opens
today at Keith's.
Mr. Reiners' idea for the climax
of his campaign was to attack
drama desks with baby. There
is baby in the picture, naturally
and he thought coming around to
drama desks with a 7-month-ol
baby would be perfectly symbolic,
not too symbolic for words be-
cause words were what he wanted
from the boys and girls. The
baby was to be cute and winning,
qualities which, with the novelty
of it all, would make nice SUBJ
ject for today's columns.
Mr.. Reiners had something at
that. Just what he had, no one
knows, for he also had baby that
at months looks like the ultimate
master of the double-cross. Instead
of being its pretty, cute, cooling
self, it suddenly turned into a cry
baby, an infant with tragic
reluctance to be stooge in any
such act as that arranged for it.
Mr.. Reiners hoped for an improve
ment and kept on hoping with the
almost infinite patience that is the
carefully cultivated asset of every
press agent. The baby, however,
outlasted him and Mr.. Reiners
eventually just went around to the
drama desks himself.
In view of all the space he got
here, it probably turned out for the
best.
OF the many persons who have
heard Jascha Heifetz, few have seen
the miracle of his playing. That is
about to be changed, now, for Hell
fetz has made his first movie and
now the eyes as we'll as the ears
can help fill the heart with wonder
at it all. To quote Deems Taylor,
a person one can quote with relish:
TT (the picture) shows Heifetz
on the platform of a concert hall,
playing Saint-Saens' Introduction
and Rondo Capriccioso' and, in ac-
cordance with motion picture tech
nique, shows the player, not merely
as one would see him from seat in
the auditorium. but from many
angles and at varying distances
long shots, medium long shots,
clsoe-ups, and what one might call
close -close-ups, views of the bow
and the wonderfully controlled arm
that propels it, glimpses of the
flashing fingers of that miraculous
left hand. 1 thought then, with
what despairing admiration a vio-
linist must watch those fingers, but
/ thought, too, how I would haunt
this picture, if I were a violinist, If
only for the sake of seeing as no
one ever has seen before, how Hell
fetZ does it."

McClelland's bid of s2S,700. Attor-
ney General Earl Warren ruled that
the use of ribcrete construction
would be illegal because Supervisor
A. Y. Preble owns the patent for
ribcrete and would derive "adver-
tising value" if the county used it
in the Juvenile Detention home.
Also the attorney general advised
against the use of ribcrete in view

The whole controversy arose af-

struction. Otherwise ribcrete could
have been used without question.
