THERE seems to be a new
Il cycle starting in the movies,
one involving young actresses
who hail from Ireland. If they
have red hair and green eyes so
much the better.
Let me refer you to Greer
Carson as a starter. She was
launched in this country in
"Goodby Mr.. Chips" you
know, and is a red haired,
green eyed beauty. Geraldine
Fitzgerald is another product
of the Irish theaters. Maureen
O'Hara, who arrived in this country
with her mother recently, also with
Charles Laughton, is the latest ex-
ample. He felt that she should play
"Esmeralda" when he does "The
Hunchback of Notre Dame" for
RKO.
She was born and brought up in
Dublin, studied at the Abbey thea
ter's school, and did a few bits in
British pictures before she appeared
in his Jamaica Inn."
AS she was just Is everyone was
prepared to give her all the en-
enlargement they could, since she'd
be in the company Of expert

Gaithersburg Ends Year
With A Fine Record

At the July meeting of the Mayor
and Council, the report of the Treas
urer, Walter F. Reinhart, indicated
that the finances of the town of Gath
ersburg were in satisfactory condi-
ton at the close of the past fiscal
year. Revenues were $6,692.62 and ex-
penditures $6,164.26, both figures be-
ing within 5000 of the budget expec-
tations for the year. Cash balance in
the bank as of June /, 1889 was
81, 823.74 as compared with $1,295.38
the previous year, all bills being paid
at both times.
During the year, the town debt
which was originally $1,000, was re-
duced by the usual payment of $3.50
and interest, the balance due now be-
ing $9,345.00. All of the streets on
Observatory Heights were resurfaced
at cost of about $1,400. A garage
to house the town steam rowler and
truck, when purchased was erected on
the towns property on Park avenue
at cost of about $425. Minor repairs
were also made throughout the year
to sidewalks, roadways and alleyways
as needed.
For the fiscal year beginning June
/, 1889, the assessed value of real es-
tate property will be $958, APO, and of
other property $134,376, or a total of
$1,092,796. Estimated receipts are
S6,422.30 and estimated expenditures
are $6,4O4,3O, leaving slight surplus.
Money available during the year
will therefore be estimated receipts of
S6,422.38 plus the cash balance of
81, 823.74 or $8,246.12 with anticipated
expenditures of $6,404.3O.
An appropriation of $1,65O was rec
commended for street improvements
as against $1,000 estimated for last
year. The growth of the town and in
creasing accumulation of refuse, garb-
age and tin cans, and the dumping
thereof on lots within the corpora
ton, has reached such proportions as
to become unsightly and to be an in
creasing menace to health. 1t is felt
that action by the town to provide
for its removal is imperative.
This can only be done in lieu of an
advance in the tax rate which must
first have the sanction of the legisla-
ture, by the reduction of certain
other expenditures. An appropriation
of $3.50 for the purchase of second
hand truck and $500 for operation
was also recommended.
The appropriation for street light
ing was increased by the sum of
$3.50 which will provide one addi-
tional light on George street and also
one on Hutton street.
In view of the steady increase in
work, the compensation of the town
clerk was recommended to be in
creased from $3.50 to $25 per month.

With the season half over Colesville
A. C. is leading the Montgomery base

Rockville may top the league this

enced players. But after the first
few days they discovered that she
didn't need it. In fact, they had to
be on their toes to keep her from
walking off with the picture.
Perhaps ambitious youngsters
who want to land in pictures would
do well to rush to Ireland, achieve
red hair, and start in with the Alb
hey Players, if this cycle is to con-
tinue. The only difficulty would
seem to be acquiring green eyes,
and exceptional ability to act.

If you read that delightful novel,
"Rebecca," which until recently led
so many best-seller lists, you'll be
interested to know that Laurence
Olivier has been signed to play the
role of the hero.
Although he is young, Olivier has
had years of experience on the stage
and in the movies, but until this
year he never reached the heights.
Now it seems as if everyone wants
him for new production. He is
appearing on the New York stage in
''NO Time for Comedy" with Kath-
crime Cornell, and you can see him
giving an even better performance
in "Wuthering Heights" opposite
Merle Oberon, than he gives in the
play. He'll be perfect for the part
of "Max de Winter" in "Rebecca."

If brand new squabble breaks
out between two radio stars, don't
be surprised, and don't take it seri-
ously. There isn't a really good
feud raging on the air now, and
radio stars discovered long ago that
feuds whip up interest in their pro-
grams.
The best one of all took place
years ago, between Rudy Vallee and
Will Osborne, but that one was rath-
er serious. Walter Winchen and
Ben Bernie started theirs on pur-
pose, and kept it going for years.
A certain press agent has been try
ing to start one of those serialized
battles between Sammy Kaye and
Kay Kyser, with the question of
which one originated the idea of
singing song titles as the bone of
contention, but be it said to the ever
lasting credit of Kyser and Kaye
that they're too proud to fight.
y
Pat Friday, the 17-year-old coed
from the University of California,
who is singing on Bing Crosby's pro-
gram this summer, will probably
be a top-notcher in movies and ra-
dio in a few years. Crosby heard
her sing at an amateur night at a
Beverly Hills restaurant, and re-
Gently she made her coast-to-coast
debut on the air, under his direc-
ton. The telephone switchboard at
the Hollywood NBC studios was
promptly jammed with inquiries
about her, and the following morn

her contracts. She turned them
down; wants to work only in radio
until she finishes her college course,
two years from now.

Solemn Rites Today For Late Holy Father
,ocntinueo from Pave n

The ceremony of lowering the pope,s coffin into the crypt was slow and solemn. A huge cross was borne aloft towards the blanks down which the coffin was slid and those present made the sign of the cross.
 The coffin was preceded into the crypt by the st. Peters choir sing CTS,
 Just before the coffin was lowered, the prelates chanted, "Ora pro nobis" ("pray for us,") At esq p, m. The coffin was paced In the crypt.
 As the coffin reached the resting place a solemn chant, "Benedictus" echoed through the cathedral from the depths of the crypt. The faith. ful in the Hasllica knelt and prayed as the body reached It's final rest. ing place.
 The bells of St. Peters still mournfully tolled.
 Entombment of the Pope occurred four days after his death, Many thousands of the faithful viewed the body while 1t lay in state In the Basilica.
 Six more of the nine daily funeral masses are yet to DO said,

 Fitzgerald told the meeting that he defeated former Gov, James Murphy, now attorney.general solely on the issue of the new deal With his election, he said, the era of the sit-down strike died, He pro- posed 0 Republican platform foI labor which would "iegaiige orderly strikes" outlaw mob disorders and mob pieketing" and require i0.day mediation period before the calling of c strike,
