HOLLYWOOD. Sc

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. "a -
Night club owners hereabou'
have been so close to the Holly
woods that they couldn't see the
trees. Maybe a better analogy
would be to say that they've
been SO close to the screen that
their perspectives have been
distorted. Anyway, it remained
for a New Yorker, John Muir
ray Anderson, to come out here
and start a cabaret that ex-
PLOTS the movies and their ira
ditions and thei-: people.
His Silver Screen revue is a
cavalcade of sirens, slapstick
and censorship, and of bathing
beauties, Keystone Hops and
glamor gals. It's q show de-
signed for the tourist trade, but
is being patronized by today's
flicker folk.
I don't know why some sucl,
entertainment hasn't been pre-
sented before. Two other Broad,

"Vanities" man, and Nils Gran
lund, veteran cabaretman, both
are conducting large, glitterine
dens Of skin in Movietown, but
their offerings are the sort you d
find anywhere from Chicago to
Miami. Granlund goes in for
baroness and bantering, while
Carroll still favors the type OF
show in which lush Amazons
strut around carrying stuffed
pheasants.

the operation Of military and
naval oircroft.
The Hague conference Of
1923 made some brood gen.
civilizations that the laws Of

SC apply to oircroft. But inter
national law as it, opplies to
the sinking Of merchant ships
specifies thot war vessels con
determine the character OF
merchant ships only by visit

character Of q merchant ship
must be determined and pro-

crew and passengers before
sinking. Determining the true
character usually nneons on ex-
animation Of the crew list, pos
senger list, clearance Popers,

Of course its impossible for

things. For q plane to rodio q
