Casa Grande custodian, Al Bick-
nell, keeps full and accurate
weather records. We've been do
ing a little comparing. So far this
month Gt's still raining today, the
17th) we have had rs" precipita-
ton. Our greatest rain this month
was during the night and ending
noon of the 18th when we had over
p" of rain. 1t seems as though
we are having rainy year.
Bicknell's records show that dur
ing December last year we had
.13" precipitation. Last month we
had 1.29" as compared with Sc
hundredths during November of
1889 and no rain at all in Novem-
ber 1888. During the dust storms
this year, with an average tenn
perature of SS degrees, we had Sc"
rain, but in October last year we
had no rain at all and October,
1888, we had no rain. Both years
showed dust storms and about 90
degrees temperatures. Looking far
back in this years record we see
that Al took a 119 degree maxi
mum temperature in June. Today's
drizzle and GOODNESS seem good.
Travel is good at the local

Champ lobbyist

When Henry Fonda dragged home
an old gun that Frank James once
used, his wife resignedly started
cleaning out the nursery and turn
ing it into a gun trophy room. She
knew only too well what was ahead.
Champion lobbyist of Hollywood
is Hank. He has the garage clut-
tered up with furniture he is re-
painting. He has the basement
filled with his sculpture. He won't
let any one within sight of his dark
room, where he has printed up lit
orally thousands of pictures He
spends his vacations collecting an
tique furniture. He paints murals
on his youngsters rooms. He took
up stone masonry even and built a
fireplace on his San Diego ranch.
And now, since he's played Frank
James twice-most recently in The
Return of Frank James" at Goth
Century-FoX-he's planning to visit

the theory that the public did not
read it anyhow.
Perhaps Mr.. G. is listed there
merely as a survey item. How many
movie-goers could have identified
him as the hair-do man before
reading this?
When she played that un-Zasu
Pitts role in Nurse Edith Cavell,"
the collapsible- looking Miss Pitts
was trying to burst the shackles of
being typed as freakish come
dienne in Hollywood. 1t was her
private notion that she was some
what better actress than she had
been on the screen, that she could
do more than be a person who
talked, walked and otherwise seemed
to be a heSitant, colorless charac-
ter. For her part in the picture,
Miss Pitts had high TOPICS.
Those hopes, it turns out, were
too high. Good as was her per-
Torrance, Miss Pitts remained the
same old Miss Pitts in the eyes of
the cinema casting people.
That was disappointment, in a
way, to Miss Pitts. AS a result,
she is about to try another method
of shattering the illusion that she is
a great dumb bunny, nothing else.
The new method involves making
her legitimate stage debut this fall
in mystery entitled Our First
Murder
Actually it is not Miss Pitts stage
debut, but Eastern audiences are
not supposed to know she appeared
last week in Noel towards Hands
Across the Sea" in Hollywood.
She is hopeful of better results
from this venture than from her
effort to be simply dramatic in
Nurse Edith Cavell."

of public school safety education and

that the schools alone cannot educate

WELL Attended

Considerable interest was shown in
establishing a full-fledged WPA re-

held Friday night to discuss the pro-

man of the recreational committee of

CARNATIONS were represented.
A second meeting has been set for
Wednesday evening, April 10, at which
time the persons present at the first
meeting will report as to the reaction
of the groups they represent.
A planning committee, necessary in
order to obtain WPA approval of the
project, will he named. The problem
of facilities still remains to be solved.
The project was endorsed by the Ely

meeting.

has some form of recreational program
which provides organized and supervised
play for both young and old, Earl Hobe,

Hobe said that if Ely wanted pro-

unsuccessful because of the failure OF
