SINCE my last visit Hollywood
~ seems to have Subdued its
night life 10 a point where you
find yourself all, all alone if f'you
are out much after midnight.
True, Mr.. Earl Carroll's theater-
cabaret, with it's assembly Of
shapely goddesses (fresh out Of
high school, it is to be pre-
sumed), finds itself congregated
to capacity nightly and perhaps
that is as it should be, for Mr..
Carroll would be very unhappy
otherwise.
Mr.. John Steinberg's Victor
Hugo restaurant also attracts a
satisfactory proportion of the
towns patronage and there is a
new place known as Grace
Hayes lodge, which seems to be
having its vogue as this is writ
ten, chiefly because of its happy
informality.
But in the main Hollywood
more and more prefers to dine
at home, wine at home and en-
tertain at homeland considers
it somewhat of a break, Of
course, if the dining, wining
and entertaining take place at
the other fellows home.

StOrz Beer Now Avail
able In Pasteurized
Half Gallons

The popularity of Storz draught
Beer in half gallon picnic bottles
has led to another development,
the packing of Storz Pasteurized
Beer in these big bottles. Whereas
the draught beer has to be kept
cold from the time it is purchased
until it is used, the ~pasteurized
beer a be kept any place until
near the time it is to be used and
then cooled to the proper temper
ature. Also, the pasteurized beer
will not spoil if it gets warm again
after once having been cooled but
can be ~re-cooled when necessary.
This is not advisable with draught
beer.
This Pasteurized Storz Beer in
half gallon picnic bottles is also
a convenience for dealers who did
not have sufficient refrigerator
capacity to keep enough of the
half gallon draught beer bottles on
hand to supply their customers.
Also, many picnic parties could
not cool more than two or three
half gallon bottles at a time. Now
they can keep a reserve supply of
Storz half gallon Pasteurized
bottles and cool them as needed.
In order TO make sure that ev-
erybody who likes beer can get
their choice of styles in Pasteuriz-
ed beer, Storz bottle Triumph, Pill
sener Club and All Grain in half

Storz Fine Lager Beer is provided
in cans, which many people prefer
because cans are easier TO pack,
there is no breakage, there are no
bottles to carry back, and beer in
can eools quicker.

Legion Commander

U. 5. Out Of War
Kelly Unanimously
Acclaimed as Chicago
Convention Closes
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-Raymond j.
Kelly, 44-year-old Detroit attorney,
was elected national commander of
the American Legion yesterday and
pledged himself to do everything
possible to keep the Nation out of
War.
A. lieutenant Of artillery in the
World War, Mr.. Kelly was unani-
mously acclaimed in the closing ses-
sion Of the Legion's 21st annual con-
vention.
So obviously was the sentiment
for Kelly among the delegates that
the names Of but two others of the
six expected candidates were placed
before the convention. Milo Warner,
Toledo, Ohio, and Lynn Stambaugh,
Fargo, N. Dak., withdrew In behalf
of the favorite.
Even before successor to Stephen
F. Chadwick, Seattle, had been
omcially announced, enthusiastic
Legionnaires rushed upon the stage
brandishing their State standards,
Wnlcn tney clustered tanWlSe behind
the man of their choice.
Commanders Response.
Amidst wild cheering and arm
waving. Kelly stood with Chadwick
in fraternal pose. The new COM
mander responded:

united in a common chorus that
America must maintain a real neu-
trality," he asserted, adding that
| under no conditions shall it be dis
torted into deceptive and mis-
leading attempt to take sides be-
hind the scenes.
The American Legion says that
our country must stay out of armed
conflict overseas. It believes the
neutrality policy of our country
should be highly realistic one. It
Evening star., 1939-09-29

believes that the attempt to cloak
our neutrality with . biased bellig-
erency will surely draw US into the
conflict.
1T believes that only through
sane thinking by our individual cit
izenry, the absence Of hysteria and
the deliberate consideration Of the
problems of maintaining the peace
can we feel reasonably certain that
war involvement will not be our lot.
Asks Deliberate Action.
TT says to the American people,
BE cool and deliberate in your
announcements and actions. If you
must become partisan, let 1t be
solely an aggressive partisanship for
the American way of life.
"The Legion urges all right think
ing citizens to join with 1t in the
effort to make unmistakably plain
to our chosen leaders and represent
atives within the Nations Capital
that 1t Is their job to see to it that
the best means of keeping America
out Of war are followed"
The Legion, he declared, would in
tensify its Americanism program
with veterans demands for a ma
tional defense inferior to that of no
other world power.
Other officers named as the Legion
terminated its sessions in late after
noon were:
Vice commanders: Leo Ray, Cor
