Gallery Girls Cable
'HOnOrS an Actress

London's famous Gallery Girls, q
unique organization of its kind, have
just voted Charlotte Greenwood
their all-time favorite actress.
Miss Greenwood was informed OF
the honor in cable she received
while at work in Star Dust" at the
Goth Century-Fox. The message
came from Beattie Levin, president
of the group.
The organization is made up of
shop girls, Mattresses, maids and
young women engaged in similar
pursuits who unfailingly attend
shows twice week and always sit in
the galleries because they cannot
afford better.
Vocal ane emphatic in their likes
and dislikes they have not only
made" many British shows, but
they have closed down a good many
others by heckling the players.
Miss Greenwood won their ad-
miration and support while on the
British stage for three years by
helping q number of them.
II would rather have their support
than that of all the British critics
combined" she said, because they
really make their support felt"

Three New Plays
Are Presented by
Cue and Curtain

Some glimpses of play-writing
talent which may one day bloom
brightly were permitted to shine
through last night at Western Pres
byterian Church, where members Of
the Cue and Curtain Club of George
Washington University engaged
themselves with three one-act plays
written by students. OF the three
the most worthy of note, perhaps,
is Eugene Lerner's Destiny" At
any rate, Destiny" was adjudged
the best play submitted In the one
act play-writing contest held at the
school last semester, and we will
be glad to allow the judges decision
to be final.
Mr.. Lerner"s drama employs rath-
er a clever notion to bring Adolpr
Hitler face to face with several
men Of destiny"-Napoleon, "Herod,
Nero, Cromwell-and a woman of
destiny"-Catherine de Medici. It
has some moments of pointed COM

The Duffins learned to dance by
being too tired to dance. Matt, the

washer when he and Barbara de-
cided they would be q dance team
as no dance team ever had been be-
fore. After hours, they would work
for hours and hours, until they were
too tired to do the steps correctly.
Their teacher watching them one
night, decided they ought to make
a routine out Of their mistakes. The
Dufflns took him up and there they
are at the Earle after having been

from that kitchen in which Matt
used to get so tired he couldn' t

previous remissness on the score by
disclosing the literary methods of a
number Of the most successful OF
Hollywood drama creators.
1t is quite possible, for example,
that the muse ignores the chronic
failure as screen writer because the
chronic failure does not use the
Preston Sturges method. The
Sturges' method is a fine combina-
ton Of art, athletics and sanitation,
productive system which involves
thinking things out on the golf
course, then rushing home to dash
them of in the proper form while
sitting in the bath tub.
The Cecille B. De Mile system is
closer to convention. Although bet
ter known as a director, Mr.. De
Mile actually does more writing on
the scripts of his pictures than any
one he hires for literary ability. BY
way of courting the Muse which
destiny has assigned to him, Mr..
De Mile waits until late at night,
slips into dressing gown and slippers,
fills a pipe and begins to smoke
furiously. Gradually the ideas crys-
tallize, the words come, Mr.. De Mile
tosses aside the pipe and the manu-
script begins to take the shape the
master commands. An alternative
method, although probably beyond
the means of the average frustrated
writer, is to get aboard your 106-foot
yacht, steam out into some quiet
inlet or bay, don a divers outfit
and take stroll on the ocean floor.
Mr.. De Mile points out that that is
where he got the idea for Northwest
Mounted Police" even though it
may strike you as blank of place
to get that kind of idea.
The Lubitsch touch may be more
to the liking of others, however.
Certainly it is one that should be
espoused by Frank Swadley, George
johnson, Gardiner Moore, Daniel
Wathey and others, whose busi-
nesses have night club branches.
When planning picture, Mr.
Lubitsch turns his life into a fever
ish dash from night club to night
club, dash that may go on for
weeks.
Night clubs are the finest places
In the world for ideas, Lubitsch
thinks. He does no actual writing
in them, of course, because it would
be silly to set up typewriter in a
night club-even a Hollywood one.
That's done at home, but the brood
ing is of the bistro type.
These are not the only formulas,
naturally, for the writing geniuses
of the cinema are not men of
single pattern. There is a method,
indeed, for every temperament and
type Of story. To save space, we
list few:
Frank Capra-A hunting trip in
the mountains.
Gregory La Cava-Write as the
camera grinds out the picture.
Grover Jones-Walk the floor fu-
riously, smoking a cigar and snap
ping your suspenders.
Clifford Odets-Write in your un-

Frank Lloyd-Play solitaire.

in various streams in Brunswick
county and local anglers are at
tributing the large catches indi-
rectly to the county's forest fire
prevention system.
Observers claim that the pre-
vention of forest fires are causing
the streams to be replenished
greatly. AS an example of some
of the fishing recently are catches
such as these:

boro Art Shop man, went fishing
here in company with Postmaster
l.. T. Haskell and County Fire
Warden Dawson Jones. In a little
over an hour they hooked II big
large mouth bass and So large
google eye perch. The perch are
said to have each weighed from
a pound up to one and three
fourths pounds, and the bass ran
from two to four pounds in weight.
Friday afternoon Mr.. Farrell and
Harold Smith. also of Greensboro,
went again. This time they were
accompanied by w. B. Keziah. They
went to another location and at
this place the bass were not so
responsive as they had been on
the previous day. Only one bass
was taken.
The google eyes we're very &C
tive, however. With Oily two hours
for the sport before the party had
to return to keep a dinner en-
gagement, nothing much bit dur
ing the first hour; then the google
eyes began to strike.
They struck so fast that NO
count was made of individual
catches. The three men simply
