The pictures taken here, with
the local cast, serve two pur-
poses.
First, some of them are shots
made at a long distance, and
they win go into the finished
film, so you will see the Key
Westers in it, but not their faces.
Close-ups of the real cast will
be made at the studio in North
Hollywood, giving the impress
sion when the picture is complete
that the stars are the ones you
see in the long shots.
The second purpose of the pic
lures made here is to serve as
background-which is quite a
trick in itself.
Shoot From Behind
Film made in Key West will be
projected upon screen, just as
you would see it done in any
theater. In Hollywood, how
ever, the screen will be transpar-
ent, and on the other side of it
will be the actors, with another
camera shooting them from that
side.
1t sounds a little complicated
in print, but it isn't particularly
so.
The Key West shots, projected
on the transparent screen, pro-
vide a moving background of wa
ter and clouds for the camera on
the other side giving the inn
preston that the set boat on the
stage is moving against a back
ground of the Florida Keys,
Overseas Highway and the green
waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
City In Picture
Key West, which doesn't fig
ure in the novel, will get into
the picture, SO the Republic
crew has been shooting scenes
all over town, some of them from
the roof of La Concha hotel.
They won't have anything to
do with the story, but the Key
West pictures will be flashed on
the screen at the start along
with the name of the picture
and the credits for actors and
production men.
r. E. Abel, production mana
ger. who decides what shots are
to be made, does the hiring and
pays the bills, says the picture
will be about a halfrmillion dol
lar productions It's due out
sometime in September.
Abel and Bill Morgan, the pro-
ducer, with a crew of five, flew
here from California to do the
present job.
The setting is little strange
for both the bosses.
Abel's last three jobs have
been on Judy Canova musicals,
while Morgan has been tied up
with string of Gene Autry
horse operas.

death.
That was the first thought which
passed through my mind, confused
and bewildered by the many and
diverse emotions I had suffered
that day.
Seeing that black figure, slowly
struggling on through those break
ing waves, hidden from view one
moment, the next dimly glimpsed
through flying spray and pouring
rain, completely lost heart
But I wouldn't have called him
back for anything on earth. Never
again could anyone hurl the
charge OF cowardice a. him

instant Cary had disappeared from

me and, as l had done once before,
slumped to the ground.
Tears which I had shed so easily
at my third fall were denied me
now. The love which had surged
from my heart to my lips at the
pressure OF Cary's, swamped me In
an overwhelming sense of loss.

envision the long lonely years

1t would have been easier to
have lost him when my entire be-

by sorrow. could hold my head as
high as the proudest. No stigma of
shame could be attached to his

hope, would place his name among
