Sidney Toler's contract to

has made him a tanned man. But
there was time when, between
pictures, he'd simply bound out

Being a direct sort OF person,
he'd just call his favorite steam

any ship, going anywhere and
usually without a bit of luggage.
Headed for Panama
One time, he found himself

after he had hobnobbed with
the captain, the ships doctor
and its only other passenger-a
lady going to Norway-did he
know that he was headed for

For months and while she was

Academy

'COCkeyed'
BY CHARLES GENTRY

WHILE Hollywood is stepping
w right up and calling Ginger
Rogers oscar" lots of the film
fans are putting IN some COM
plants that the academy awards
this year were just a little cock
eyed.
Every year. Of course, there
are squawks. and many who feel
that their favorites have been
neglected, but this time the OBJ
sections have been a little more
violent and much more wide
spread.
There is no doubt that Kitty
Foyle" was a good picture and
that Miss Rogers has certainly
made the grade from chlorine TO
dramatic star in nothing fiat,
but her performance of Christie
pher Morley's little stenographer
could hardly be called the finest
thing in a year which witnessed
such things as Katharine
Hepburn in The Philadelphia
Story" Rosalind Russell in His
Girl Friday" and Martha Scott

Monogrammed wool and silk shirts
are very popular and this year, by
the way, you'll find almost every
thing being monogrammed. Know
Your Own" is the motto of one col
lege shop which puts on your name
or initials-thus doing away with at
least nine-tenths of the prospective
fights with your roommate. Twin
sweaters remain in the picture. as
do the long-torso heavy knitted
ones. Dickeys, without which most
college girls would perish, are going
strong, and there's a new version
which may be worn fastened close
or used in a deep v. These come
two in a package.
In coats, the model with tipped
in lining is fast replacing the re-
versible. There are also some
chamois- lined models which have
full-length chamois- lined sleeves for
extra warmth. Favored is a coat
called the Trooper" which is three
quarter length, of water-repellent
fabric with f1eece-like lining which
isn't fleece at all. Suits with separate
mouton jackets are being sold, and
in furs the college girl likes mink
dyed -muskrat and newly treated
raccoon with puSh-up sleeves.
Dating dresses" cling to princess
lines and to the new longer torso.
Dressy pinafores. as mentioned
above, are one Of the extremely
smart campus fashions.

laces made of spools of snakeskin,

disclose a couple of giddy goldfish,
necklaces with states, pencils,

from them, yarn necklaces with
wooden autumn leaves and great
big leather-covered pins in the
form of apples with green felt
leaves
Not to be overlooked are casual
shoes of cowhide. high boots for

late that afternoon. he Tdu never
been in Chicago before, and while
he was eating in the station restau-
rant, a very pleasant and respect
able looking man struck up a con-
versation with him.
This man was a Kansas City
dentist, waiting for the same train
Charles planned to take. He knew
Chicago, SO Charles readily accepted
his suggestion that they take a
sightseeing walk up Michigan Boule-
ward.
The rest of the story is almost in
credible-but it happened. Charles
and the dentist were accosted by a
rural looking stranger asking dlrec-
tions. Somehow they got to match
ing nickels. One thing led to an
other. and before it was over Charles
had gone into bank and cashed
his two hundred dollars worth OF
travellers checks. Then he watched
tolerantly while the dentist won a
lot of money from the well-heeled
hayseed. The dentist also won
Charles money-but only after
whispering to him that he'd give II
back as soon as they were alone.
Then the hayseed started getting
suspicious and threatening trouble.
Charles and the dentist separated.
to meet later at the station. That
was the last Charles ever saw OF
either the hayseed or the dentist
and also the last he ever saw OF his
two hundred dollars.
Well, when Charles told us of that
experience, we thought he must
have been feeling pretty stupid that
morning. But short time later an
other incident made us little less
sure. And on this occasion, the
leading character was none other
than the male half of this column
writing team.
Alden was walking across town TO
keep a luncheon date when he was
accosted by a well.dressed elderly
man who was obviously tourist
The man asked Alden's help in To-
eating a place of rather dubious en-
tertainment which he had visited
many years before. He was looking
for little fun, and he had plenty
of money to pay for it-which he
proved by exhibiting large rol

| Now. Alden wasn't born yesterday
but his only reaction to this ap-
proach was amusement at the ole
man. and feeling that he shouldn't
show his money so carelessly. Alden
| told the tourist he was sorry he
couldn't help him, and started on his
way. Whereupon another man
stepped up-a looking, hatless
young fellow, obviously an office
worker out on his lunch hour.
He also was amused by the elderly
man, but he offered to find him the
entertainment he was seeking. They
both urged Alden to go along, but
Alden had his appointment-and he
wasn't interested in that type OF
