II was while they we're playing in
New York that Joan was spotted by
one of those ever-present Hollywood
talent scouts and sent to the coast for
try-out. She did fairly well. but her
between-age status handicapped her
She played few very small parts. kid
parts, at various studios, then was
signed to modest term contract bv
Warmers. They gave her some inten-
sive dramatic schooling, tested her I'D
and down and crosswise, and decided
she had everything, potentially, to
make hrst-run actress. And not Just
eventually - right away, in spite of
her years.
Her first job of any consequence was
as the clubfooted girl in High Sierra"
with Humphrey Bogart and Ida
Lupino his was fast company, and
the last company was playing at peak
performance in strenuous picture.
Hers was the ingenue lead. She did
very well. After that she played in
The Wagons Roll at Night" and
Thirty Days Hath September" and
was finally elevated to stardom in
Sergeant York" as the sweetheart,
then the wife, of Gary Cooper.
Which is where we came in.
And now let's take closer look at
Joan in respect to her relations with
the California Board OF Education,
Welfare Division. Her teacher is ap-
pointed by the state, but paid by the
studio. The teachers duties consist
not only OF conducting Joan's lessons
in accordance with the curriculum laid
down by the state, but of seeing that
the prescribed division of time be-
tween work, school, recreation and
rest is followed. Since she also is
deputy executive officer of the Welfare
Division. her word is law, not only
with Joan herself but with the studio
as well.
Joan studies and recites sometimes
in her dressing room, sometimes in
corner of the sound stage. but very
often, appropriately enough, in lit
tie schoolhouse on the lot, completely
equipped with blackboard. chalk and
all the rest. When Joan goes on loca-
ton. her teacher must accompany her
and be prepared to carry out her
duties under such circumstances as
present themselves.

ARTIF IGIAL EYE
To Be MOVABLE
MADE OF RESINS; TURNED By
MUSCLES SAME AS
REAL EYE

MEXICO CITY-UP- The In.
vention Of an artificial eye that
moves, an important contribution
not only TO science but also to
American defense. was reported 10
the International Assembly of the
International College Of Surgeons
which met here.
DR.. Theodore J. Dimitry, direc-
tor OF the department of ophthal-
mology. at the Louisiana State
University medical center, told the
assembly that with the outbreak
OF war in Europe he foresaw a
shortage of glass eyes in the
United States. Germany has a
monopoly on the manufacture OF
glass used in blowing glass eyes
To forestall a glass eye short
age, DR.. Dimitry began expert
menting with two objects in view:
TO develop an artificial eye that
would turn, and to develop an eye
that could be manufactured from
substance other than glass, max
ing the United States independent
OF German supply.
Made From Resins
The results OF his research were
placed before the assembly. Dr.
Dimitry's eye is made from acrylic
resins, the substance used to man
utacture lucite. It is not blown
but is cast in a die. 1t is superior
to the German eye because it is
lighter, unbreakable and eudurable.
The German eye deteriorates in
three years.
With the aid OF color photogra-
ply, Dr.. Dimitry has been able to
match an artificial eye perfectly
with its human counterpart. The
negative Is developed directly on
the plastic.
DR.. Dimitry found simple solu-
ton to the mobility problem. His
eye fits in the eye socket, grasp
ing the eye muscles. The muscles
turn the artificial eye Just as they
do the real eye. The German eye,
he discovered, crowded the eye
socket, making the muscles use
less.
Used by Aztees
THE Mexican Aztecs were one
OF the first peoples to use artifi-
cial eyes" DR., Dimitry said. They
put stones in the socket OF their
dead. Then the glass blowing art
arose in Italy and a special glass
was deVelODed nv tho neOnIa ~ a
small island just out of Venice.
called Murano The formula for
the glass was kept a secret.
Then a king of one OF the Ger
man provinces induced the entire
population of the island to come
TO Germany with their ecret. For
$50 years Germany has held a
monopoly on the manufacture of
that special glass. 1t allows only
100 pounds per artisan to be ex
ported. There are 20 such artisans

You can't rope EN-. ride 'em or

OF the manufacture OF that glass
is still held by a German family
OF Italian extraction.
DR.. Dimitry distributed samples
OF his movable eye at the surgeons

were not in production yet, but
could be manufactured on short

typified the end of everything
that was to come. This polo game
was just to be a final piece of
necessary business before he
could leave New York forever,
and he played as though he
wanted to put the game on ice
in the first chukker.
He was a wild man, taking
chances that no one else would
dare take.
Larry shouted for him to ease
off, but the advice fell on un-
needing ears. Dugan got two
goals in the first chukker, two
more in the second and was roar
ing on his way to third when il
happened.
Somehow his pony stumbled,
and at the same time the Ocean
Side No. 4 man crashed into
him. There was a split-second
of pain in Dugan's knee, and
then oblivion as his horse rolled
over him.

Then the doctor appeared. His
face was grave, but there was a
spark of a smile around his eyes.
He'll live" he said simply.
Barbara tainted. Uncle Hank
caught her, q look of disgust on
his face. "Now who's going to
catch me when / faint?" he
murmured.
They waited another hour af-
ter Barbara was revived.
1--WE just want to make sure
there isn't something we can't
do" Uncle Hank insisted.
Frankly, there u.s." the doc
tor told them. "The patient
lost quite a bit of blood during
the operation. We need trans
fusion. Would you care to be

Take me-" Uncle Hank said.
She'll faint again"
Barbara turned q furious look
on her uncle and took the doc
tor aside for few whispered
words. The doctor smiled.
He took them both into the
laboratory and told them to roll
up their sleeves.
Dugan Blake blinked through
the light that streamed through
the window. He tried to frown
and il hurt.
He made out the face of Hank
Chase OH his right and then turn
ed his head slowly to look at
Barbara.
She took his hand. Darling"
she whispered. You're going
to be all right"
An incredulous look came into
Dugan's eyes. did you say

Uncle Hank stood up. Don't
wear yourself out, my boy, by
trying to figure this thing right
now. wien you get some
strength, she'll probably tell you
you're going to marry her."

Sue had told her.
She got Uncle Hank off by
himself that night after dinner.

overtures to you to keep Dugan
Blake in New York;" she de-
manded.
Uncle Hank packed his pipe
before he spoke. Yes, he did.
In fact. ! thought 1t would be a
good idea for the future and
talked to Dugan about 1t, but he
hardly listened to what ! had to
say. Never dreamed he was in

Barbara got an intense feeling
of satisfaction out Of that. So,
he was putting his tail between
his legs and running out proper.
Good. Very good. Mr.. Dugan

safety of his Oklahoma oil fields.

lciVillan aluminium contributions
Nfor national defense begins
officially today with the Inaugural
ton of aluminium week
But already. vast stock piles of
assorted aluminium items ranging
from percolators TO artificial limbs
are rising in community centerS
in several states, federal officials
said.
The national goal Of 20.000000
pounds apparently will be reached,
according TO the volume of adj
vance contributions. officials said.
This amount. experts estimated,
would be a sufficient reservoir of
the strategic metal TO produce
about $4,000 fighting airplaneS.
Scrap metal collected this week
will be sold by the office of pro-
duction management TO SmelterS,
at government-fxed prices. The
proceeds viii be used TO purchase
civilian defense equipment.

aluminium will be melted down for
use in manufacture of airplaneS,
tanks, military instruments, shell
fuses and troop equipment.
