BY the Associated Press.

SHANGHAI, Nov. %. - Wang

gram to ''Mr. Chang Kai-shek," !"
exhorting the Chinese Nationalist
generaliSsimo to quit fighting and
join Wang's "Japanese-sponsored

operation with Japan. Chang Is
not expected to reply.
The message, described as "last
exhortation," is the prelude to q
treaty signing scheduled for Satur-
day at Marking, when, according to
informed sources, Japan formally
will recognize the Chinese regime
she sponsored in opposition to
Chiang's and Wang will pledge to
Toxic virtually complete and per-
manent control of military and eco

On the Marx rehearsal stage, all
Is confusion. Backdrops are set ur
around the room so that each Of
the five acts may he rehearsed as the
mood strikes.
Groucho Dreams His Dreams.
Chico, standing up beside the
piano, hammers out tune. Harpo
almost unrecognizable without his
red wig-partially bald, yet youth
ful-appearing in slacks and sweat
shirt-dashes about exterimentine
with a trick desk, the draws.s OF
which open or shut when he fires a
gun at them.
Harpo time after time runs
through scene in which, aside from
fooling with the dizzy desk, he
knocks out six men and four women
with a "sap"-one by one as tney
crawl through windows or enter
doors
In the midst of the noise and ex-
citement Groucho lounges on di-
van, one elbow resting on.a pillow
chin in hand-the mystic, dreaming
his dreams.
Whole countries are being gobbled
up in Europe this very minute" he
soliloquizes.
"Yet here we are worrying whether
Harpo should bust the next woman
on the bean or on the hustle. It's q
strange world"

would have laughed then had any
one suggested he might a few years
hence be deserting the stage COM
pletely for pictures. 1t wasn't until
he returned to Paris from a long
tour to Africa and other countries
that he took a serious slant toward
pictures. This was because talkies
were then being perfected and he
received offers from German and
English companies to appear in their
offerings. After one Of his foreign
made efforts had been viewed in this
country the cabled offer from M-G-
M followed.
In excuse of his demand for utter
isolation Boyer insists he cannot
concentrate and remain in char
acter when others are around. He is
supposed to have said he'd bar the
door against the President of France
or anybody else who attempted to
call on him while he was still "in
character"
At home his few intimates-
among them Tyrone Power and the
French born Annabella-declare he
is gracious, modest and will talk by
the hour. His beautiful wife, Pat
Paterson, the English screen actress,
with whom he eloped to Yuma, Ariz.,
about six years ago, is his only
steady companion.
Boyer has several eccentricities.
He PAGES the set between scenes,
usually with his head down and
hands behind his back, la Napoleon
whom he once played in Con
quest" He's a connoisseur of fine
wines and likes to wash down plain
American ham sandwiches with ex-
pensive French champagne. He's
chain smoker, lighting one cigarette
from the other. The moment he
finishes scene a dresser hangs up
the coat he happens to be wearinng
and hands him an old knitted loung-
ing jacket he has had since his Paris
stage days. A gourmet, he sticks to
French cooking and lunches alone in
his dressing room.

But the three brothers already are
IN mad rehearsals, for late this
month they're going to take their
show on f1ve-week tour.
They will use the five KEYNOTE
scenes from their forthcoming movie
the idea being to test out all gags
and situations on audiences before
amprinting them upon film.
Then, says Groucho, when they
get back they can film the picture
with hardly a hitch.
Only One Trouble.
They used that system for "A
Night at the Opera" and "A Day at
the Races" says Groucho, and it
worked extremely we'll. They did
not use 1t on their most recent film,
"At the Circus and as a result they
weren't at all satisfied with the pic
ture.
"The only trouble" Groucho says,
darkly. "is those vultures who try
to steal our best stuff and rush it
into some other picture before ours
comes out. That's why we're not
playing our stage show In Los An
geles."
Their itinerary, starting at Joliet,

as the doctor of psychiatry in "Pri-
vate Worlds"
That meeting with Mr.. Wanger
and his offer of that part is the
only reason why I remained in
Hollywood and am here today" says
Boyer. II will always consider 'Pri-
: vate Worlds as my first real mo-
ton picture. The others were all
steps, or rather missteps. They were
5 errors in Judgment on my part as
well as the part of Others"
His Turning Point.
Boyer's stock went soaring after
"Private Worlds" and he immedi-
ately was cast in one hit after
another, among them being To
varich," Conquest" "Algiers," Love
Affair" and when Tomorrow
Comes" But it was the tenderly
sentimental Love Affair."" of 1889
and the brooding Frenchman's gen.
tie, but mastery love-making to
Irene Dunno that won the adora-
ton of women throughout the coun-
try. After that picture all glamour
stars in Hollywood wanted Boyer
and none other, to appear opposite
them.
Before his first misadventures in
Hollywood, Boyer, brought up by a
manufacturing family far removed
from the theater, became the rage
of the Partisan stage. Play after
play, success after success came to
him.
Love letters from women he had
never met and never would meet
were many. And the crush" notes
still follow his career in celluloid.
Boyer recalls some of them. There
was the girl who wrote him for many
months, begging for a rendezvous.
Finally came one more ardent than
the rest. She begged him to meet
her after that days matinee The
signal that he had received her mes
sage and would accept was to be a
white carnation in his lapel button
hole when he took his final curtain
bows, and slight nod toward the
left side Of the house. Boyer ar
ranged with every other actor in the
cast to wear white carnation and
make the bow to the left at the end
Of the play. He never heard from
the lady after that.

Cancer Control Poster
Contest To Be Staged

Prizes of $1.875 are being offer
ed by the American Society for
the Control of Cancer for a nat
ionwide poster competition con-
Quoted by the American Alliance
of Art and Industry. Announce
ment of plans for the competition
has just been MADE here by Mrs.
Louis Goodman for t h e North
Carolina Division of the Society's
Women's Field Army.
In announcing the competition,
she quoted DR.. Clearance C. Little,
managing director of the society,
as follows:
I'VE seek through this competi-
ton to secure a dramatic enlist
ment poster not for a war of de-
struction but for a war to save
lives. We want a direct pictorial
appeal to men and women to unite
for their own protection against
cancer. The poster should express
the hopeful and optimistic attitude
with which those in research and
medicine now approach the prob
lem of controlling this disease"
The prize winning poster, which
will capture the 81, 900 first award
for its designer, will be used for
the national campaign in April,
1941 by the Women's Field Army
of the American Societ for the
Control of Cancer.
