So you see folks, we have quite
an imposing array of Sepia-Om-
aha golf talent. Unlike many &C
tive sports, golf appeals to al
ages and is played equally well
by those getting along in years,
1t is a great nerve tonic, especial
ly if you don't take it too ser
iously. Speaking of Vets. Wal
ter Hagen was winning champion
ships back in the teens, yet he
went out a couple Of years ago
and shot a 65 on a par 72 layout
and had two balls out of bounds
to boot. And there is Johnny
Goodman-Omahas pride and Joy
of golf. He is a veteran, even
though in his early thirties
Johnny fought his way to the tor
the hard way and indeed a swell
fellow to know. While National
Open champ, he presented the win
ner of our tournament with the
Cornhusker Cup and while Nat
ional Amateur Champ a few years
later, he and Prof. Stanley Dav-
les, appeared before our group
and gave US much valuable in
formation on the science of golf.
He was even going to give US
some pointers ON "Truckin" but
John Anderson, or maybe it was
Harry Lewis, wanted to know why
he q. Anderson or H. Lewis)-
couldn't break 80. | don't remenl-
Der the correct answer, but it
seems that it was something a
bout him q. A. or H. L. taking
too many strokes. Now every.
body knows you can't get a 80
when you take 105 strokes, that
is unless you are good at mathe-
MATES like er-like - easy
there boy, | almost slipped that
time. If you want to make a golf
er hotter than a burnt boot, just
tell him that he forgot to count
all of his strokes. But, it is only
human. What Sunday golfer has
not been tempted to move that hall
from behind a tree or to forget
a stroke or SO, especially if he has
had nine already and still amt
on the green yet.
AS I was saying before, Johnny
Goodman is a swell fellow and a
swell golfer-and when he runs
for public office, Dub Slicer shall
vote for him, Twice;-No, nc
not that way-but Once in April
and once in November. Even il
he didn't like the Texas mud.

CUNNING FOR WAGNER
ACT AMENDMENTS

Congressman Howard Smith OF
Virginia has re-introduced his Wag-
ner Act amendments, which failed
of passage in the last session, and
stands ready TO bring in bill res
tricting labor's right TO strike in
defense industries. It's such mea-
sures that the House liberals are
cunning for.
The reactionaries are going to
take strikes in defense industries as
examples OF hampering our patrio-
tic effort says Coffee, but they
say nothing about the way some
industrialists are demanding their
pound OF flesh. If they put any
such laws through you can bet la
Dor will start hollering to have the
government do some commandeer-
ing Of factories.
"Of course, what's happening is
that a few extremists on both sides
are guilty. They've all got TO see
that the public interest comes first
VI this emergency" .

LIBERAL TRADITION
IN COFFEE FAMILY

Coffee himself is an unusual sort.
Son of Well-to-do Tacoma business
man who was once president of the
Tacoma Chamber of Commerce, he
was reared in better than average
comfort and given an expensive
education at the University OF
Washington and at Yale.
There was strong liberal ira
dition in the family, however,
William Jennings Bryan used to
visit the home when Coffee was a
child, and the elder Coffee was a
great admirer of the elder Bob La
Follette-and as soon as John Cof-
fee got to Washington in 1888 he
began to establish reputation as
a tWo-fisted left-winger.
But as chairman of the new
House liberal bloc, Coffee isn't just
another congressman spouting. He
speaks for a group which some
times holds the balance of power
in the House when the Democrats
get more than usually split ana
which often runs interference for
the administration on measures and
ideas the administration can't go to
the front for
This group, says Coffee, is go
ing to be unusually vigilant this
winter to protect domestic re-
forms and see that monopoly doesn't
get further entrenched under cover
OF the defense program"

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. l4.-Direc.
tor Mike Curtiz, whose magnificent
disregard for English expression is
a Hollywood tradition, has Il nick
name for everybody. The tags he
uses are not always respectful, and
sometimes they are only vaguely
descriptive. But everyone at the
studio knows them.
His head grip is Hammer Man
which is reasonable enough. SO is
Mister Lens. for the cinematogra-
pher. But you have to know about
an incident of year ago to under
stand why he calls his head cleo
trician Vibration Bum. That's be-
cause a heavy arc lamp fell from
q stand. 1t ruined scene and
would have ruined anybody who
might have been standing below it.
Mike was not at all satisfied with
the boss ULCERS explanation that
vibration caused the accident.
Bum" is a term which the Hun
garian picture-maker uses very
carelessly.
Obviously he is no respecter of
for all executives is Mister Money.
This is not a derisive handle; Cur
tiz calls 'em Mr.. Money to their
faces. He has the same attitude
toward Edward c. Robinson, star
of the current Sea Wolf" and a
fellow of some dignity hereabout.
Mike calls Robinson Sailor Boy.
NEW YORK ACTOR
DIDN'T LIKE TAG
Usually he changes nicknames
to suit roles. There are three eX-
ceptions: Enrol Flynn is always
Flint, Olivia de Havilland is Miss
Lass, and Jimmy Cagney is Red
Fellow. When he directed Bette
Davis in The Private Lives of
Elizabeth and Essex" she was al
ways Queenie. But when Mike meets
her socially, he calls her Oscar
This latter is a reminder of her
Academy Awards.
A makeup man is always Powder
Boy, even if he happens to be ell

ter Hair or Miss Hair. Wayne Nor
ris always will be Pasadena tC
Mike. Doubles are Ape Actors anc
stand-ins are Dummies. The direc-
tor has his own designations fol
all such groups. His assistant
knows, for example, that wher
Curtiz asks for Beard Men he
means tough extras. He refers tc
dress extras as Stiff Collars ano
Necklace Girls.
No one seems ever to resent the
nlcknames coined by Mike, except
one New York actor, who made
his movie debut in the first pic
ture directed here by Curtiz. Be-
sides being a. foppish gent, he was
inclined to look down his patrician
nose at the cinema and everybody
who worked in movies. So he didn't
like being addressed as Fancy
Pants.
Mike says he makes up titles. be-

PLANNING NEEDED
(WaShington, D. c., POSt)

William L. Bait, member of the Ma
tional Defense Advisory Commission, in
a recent address before the American
Society of Mechanical Engineers, pro-
posed that board of planning and re-
search be Immediately set up to work
out plans for easing the transition from
the abnormal conditions created by the
defense program to a more normal peace
time economy. 1t is certainly none too
soon to begin thinking about how to
utilize the excess capacity of defense
industries in the years ahead and how to
provide suitable Jobs for men thrown out
of work by completion of defense con-
tracts.
Expert long-range planning of this
kind should, of course, be carried on quite
effectively and should not be permitted
to delay or hamper defense preparations.
BY thus planning in advance the country
will have much better chance of realiz-
ing Mr.. Bats hopes of turning defense
swollen capacity" to "peacetime profit
for the whole population"

Editorials and Comment
TUESDAY, JANUARY A. 1941
WHAT EDITORS SAID
OF AID-BRITAIN BILL

NeU 0rk 1HeS-1ne terms OF tnlS
bill reflect the urgency of the existing
situation. But in their present form they
will create grave doubts in the minds
even of many who are most eager to send
prompt and effective aid to Britain. This
is because of the extent to which they
call for the surrender of democratic
methods-represente in this case by
the coordinate and coequal powers OF
congress-in a great effort which has as
its very purpose the defense of Demo-
cratic methods.
Detroit Free PresS-The enactment of
the war-aid measure will make it possible
for the president, if he deems it wise,
to tie not only our war economy into that
of Great Britain, but also our peacetime
economy for years to come. There is an
opportunity to bargain with our British
friends Will Mr. Roosevelt act on the
assumption that this is our war and give
away what should be paid for? Will he
take the position that it is not our war
and insist getting something in return
for what he transfers to other countries?
The bill gives him free hand to do
either.
That is tremendous authority to re-
pose in one man.
CIeUeland Plain Dealer-This legsla-
ton has the possibility of making the
president of the United States the great
est war lord of all time :. We are will
ing to trust President Roosevelt with
this tremendous amount of power. We
believe he will use it wisely.
:. The time has come TO decide be-
tween creating an American war lord,
committed to policy of making democ-
racy supreme, or allowing a Nazi war
lord, bent on world domination and the
enslavement of free peoples, to rampage
at will over the globe.
Los Angeles Times-It is unnecessary
to point out that this (opening American
ports to belligerent warships) would not
be, technically, an act short of war but
an act of war. . . Our technical neutral
ity being already shot full of holes, one
more may not particularly matter. If
the act is to be criticized, it is on the
ground of extreme broadness-one GER
tain to result in time-losing controversy.

DENNIS MORGAN
SINGS AT LAST
I see Warner Brothers have dust
ed off the script and score of THE
Desert Song" again and announced
it for Dennis Morgan. This is at
least the 50th tentative assign
ment OF the story for remake,
but there is every indication that
they now mean business.
Morgan has been kicking around
Hollywood for years without get
ting a chance in anything except
3 pictures, OF bit roles in bigger
ones. At Metro, where he was dis
missed, he was known as Stanley
Morner and had been retained as
a singer threat to Nelson Eddy
Hired by Paramount, which didn't
even know he could sing, he was
called Richard Stanley and played
gangSter roles.
