Marlene Dietrich
A Busy Young Lady

Marlene Dietrich set some sort Of
a record for activity last week when
she wound up "a days of consecu-
tive work before the cameras at
Universal. interspersed with timely
devotion to her duties as an Amer
lean citizen and to her passion for
cooking.
For her return to the screen op-
posite James Stewart in 'Destry
Rides Again." Miss Dietrich worked
continuously for more than three
weeks, including Sundays for cos
tune fittings and the recording Of
her three cowboy musical tunes.
A week of that time was spent
filming fist fight with Una Merkel
and that week happened to be the
one in which Southern Canfornia
sweltered in unusual" weather that
lifted sound stage temperatures
above 120 degrees.
During her strenuous working
schedule, Miss Dietrich, as a newly
naturalized citizen, also found time
to exercise her voting privileges. The
actress filled out registration papers
in anticipation of the special Cali
fornia State ham and eggs" elec-
ton November 7, when she will cast
her first vote.
On her first day off, Marlene re-
turned home and baked a huge cake
which she brought to her fellow
workers on the set. The cake lasted

Tor washington, commissioner HaZer
should appoint committee to think
up ways of goading the Playwrights'
Company to a vast and enduring
hate for the town.
The play, the last work Of the
late, great Mr.. Howard, was COM
pleted just prior to his sudden tragic
death in an accident on his New
England farm in September. Pre-
parations were under way at the
time to offer it as the Playwrights'
first production of the season. Cast
ing difficulties beset it at the time,
for one reason because Mr.. Cohan
did not know what he wanted to do
this season.
Approached early in September
on the subject of this play, and
several others, he gave his usual
and unqualified answer that he
could make no plans until after
the Worlds Series. The No. actor
Is also the No. l baseball fan. Or,
In view of the fact that he placed
his art second, maybe it should read
the other way around
At any rate. Washington is on
the Playwrights' list and any init
nation to the contrary is, and al
ways has been absurd.
Also booked for the National is
the new Ethel Barrymore vehicle,
Farm of Three Echoes" of which
one hears fabulous reports to the
effect that Miss Barrymore has the
comedy role of a lifetime. A very
rich lifetime.

from Joe Louis fight with Tony
Galento and the champion hasn't
made up his mind yet just how long
he's going to let the two-ton gent
stay around.
Their punch party comes off q

decides about his par for the knock
out course almost from the day he
has to pass up his first pork chop
for training diet.
But this time he'll tell you how

and how he can hit like Babe Ruth,
and how it's going to be an awful
close fight 1t seems. all in all. that
he has changed his mind about Ga

all he could take Tony just as cas-
lily as he did John Henry Lewis
and Max Schmeling.

Maybe the different tune is lure
for the cash customers. Anyway.
all he tells you now is that he's
going to get it over with as soon as
possible.
Yes. suh." he said today. I'm 60
ing to work on Mr. Galento as soon
as the bell rings I don't know how
long it's going to take, but Ill do
it just as short and sweet as can"
Joe's song and dance about the
likelihood of tough tangle with
Tony has been followed by a profit
able up-beat in the box Office busi-
ness. Promoter Mike Jacobs can't
help but grin all over the place as
ne tips you off that for the past three
or four days the ticket sale (cash)
has pleased even him, and that the
ringside pasteboards which require
heavy sugar, have been going fast
est of all.
Going Great in Training.

but a pleasant evening. Joe looks

lieves, has been improved by his
shadow boxing and road work rou-
tines. He's sidestepping and rolling
with punches neatly in his six rounds
Of sparring work every day. And, of
course, he's hitting just as hard.
But just the same. Joe would give
you the impression he's going to be
powerful glad when all this work is
over and he can sit down to a plate

NEW YORK, June IA (N.A.N.AD
Review of the weeks baseball,
brought to you through the cour-
tesy of the soap that cleans, but does
not inebriate:
Paul Derringer, popular right
handed pitcher of the Cincinnati

New York Giants and the Brooklyn
Dodgers from a camp stool just
across the New York State line. In
New York the law announced that
Mr.. Derringer's body would be de-
posted in the clink if he set foot
on New York soil. which includes
New York City and, as we went to
press, Brooklyn.
Derringer'S absence was a source
of confusion to Manager Bill Nc
Kechnle every now and then during
the Eastern trip. Needing the big
guy badly in certain spots. Mr.. Nc
Kechnie would send a courier hot
foot to the bull pen to bring him in
Where is Derringer?' the mes

gentleman on the bull pen bench
would reply, moving the fake whis-

Fast, Athletic Star Woodward
Graduates, Is Picked to Live
Up to Name at Penn State

Young Bob Fast received his di-
ploma at Woodward Schools gradu-
alton exercises a few days ago, but
1t was from reluctant hands that
he accepted the sheepskin. Fast
was neither an ordinary student
nor an ordinary athlete, as Coach
Norman Gill will tell YOU. A lad of
Fast's caliber comes along only once
in q coachs lifetime, so it isn't hard
to understand Gills regret at his
departure.
Fast. robust 145-pounder of S
feet 8 inches. matriculated at Wood
ward after leaving Bethesda-C Chevy
Chase High School, His reputation
as an athlete had not preceded him.
AS a matter of fact he didn't have
one. He was better known as a
mannerly, quiet lad who minded his
own business and got good marks.
But when he initiated his athletic
career at Woodward critics quickly
revised their opinions. He was a
little hell-raiser in sports.

show his talent. He had plenty on
the ball and in less time than it
takes to write 1t developed into a
grade-A punter, passer, ball carrier
and pass receiver. He scored ma

played whale of a defensive game.
In basket ball his talent was no
less marked. A forward, but able
to play any position, he averaged

the plays and generally distin-
guished himself by his floor work.
Oh, Gill will tell you. he was a per-

On the diamond he pitched and

displayed a keen batting eye that
carved the robust average of more
