Food Preiudiccs Une1plainable

i oou Apiainhuic
81 can assess myself and | can
see that | have any number Of
food habits that are simple non
sense. For instance, ! can not cat
liver. Any kind Of lIver.-chicken,
beef, lamb! Yet know perfectly
well that liver IS a healthy food.
Not only that, but my sister
Clara yearns for liver. Every time
] take her to a restaurant she
selects liver. So 1t cant be a reli-
gious prejudice, O one based on
family remembrances, or admoni-
tons.
Then too | got over some Of my
earlier preiudlces. | don't recall
ever seeing sausage on the table
at my fathers house. And until
! got married | never remember
TO have eaten sausage. Now |
can't get enough Of it.
The consequences are deeper
than you would imagine, on first
thought. All prison riots begin
with complaints about food. Ad-
mittedly the food itself is not the
only cause for a riot. but when
the atmosphere IN any corrective
institution becomes tense, for
other reasons. one bad meal is
enough to bring about a violent
situation.
And when | think of the num-
Der Of marriages that are wrecked
on account Of poorly prepared
foods, | am not surprised that the
divorce courts are kept busy night
and day.

Brahm to the gas Jet operator,
Lets not roast Lady Korda.' The
gas Jet operator said he was sorry.
Said he'd turned the wrong thing
umajig or something. 1t would not
happen again.
The camera finally started to
turn. Lady Korda kicked her legs
and with French accent, sang an
old English music hall number
called "Tink-a-Tin.' The scene
ended with her standing at the end
of the stage, throwing kisses to an
audience of cheering males includ-
ing George Sanders and Laird
Cregar.

cameraman Lucien Ballard.
"No good? What was wrong?'
said Lady Korda and Director
Brahm.
Gypsy Rose Korda was standing
behind pots in that final posi-
tion," Cameraman Ballard said.
She looked like onelegged
woman"
"See what I mean,' said Lady
Korda.
GLORY'S PRICE
Shortly after Korda was knight
ed. Merle said she met Sir Cedric
Hardwicke, who offered congratula-
tions and then shook his head sad
ly. Whats the matter?" asked
Merle. II know just what's going
to happen" said Sir Cedric. "1t
happened to me, too. All your bills
are going to go up"
Merle is very happy about her
role as an English music hall en-
tertainer in THE Lodger." It's the
first gay, light role I've ever had"
she said. after Henry VIII 1t
looked like I was destined to go on
crying, with mascara running all
over my face. This is the role I've
been waiting for"
She said that when Goth Century
Fox sent her the script, she started
to read it and couldn't put 1t down.
Said she was SO interested in the
story she didn't even find out If
her role was a good one. And you
know how ham reads script

She was wearing long black
hose and fluffy abbreviated skirt

Lady, especially in a can can
dancers costume. But that wasn't

"and watch and listen. You'll see

So we sat down and watched and
listened and we saw what Lady
Korda meant.

Single Concert
Planned for
This Yea ar

Since SO many inquiries have
been made relative to a concert
series this year, Imperial Valley
Concert club members have an
nounced that there will be no series
this year out that arrangements
are underway for one single
concert.
Due to various wartime difficult
ties and to the clubs inability to
secure volunteer workers to handle
all the details of the series, it was
deemed unWiSe to attempt series
but to try instead for single
concert.
QueStionnaireS were sent out
with the result that the above ac-
ton was taken.
Negotiations are underway with
L. E. Behymer, impreSSario, under
whom the concert series have been
arranged in the past, but nothing
definite has been worked out as
get. As soon as officers have any
information they will make it
public.

Bacon Slayer Still Sought

Hollywood, Sept. 21-(UP)-Po- lice searched poultry slaughter house today in the belief that the knife which killed Boston socialite- actor David Gaspar Bacon may have been of the long thin-blade type used to kill chickens.
 Feathers found on @ heavy blue sweater in Bacons car led to this belief and gave investigators their first tangible clue in the mystery staying of the masked marvel" of the films.
 Meanwhile police investigated re- ports that Bacon, scion of @ wealthy Boston family. feared an extortion plot.
 A man identifying himself as Blakely c. Patterson, p, and a friend of Bacon. told reporters the actor was apprehensive recently after receiving a threatening letter. Patterson said Bacon had made an appointment to meet the writer of the note the day he was killed.
 Dr. w. B. Bacon, the slain mans brother. said he doubted this story and police said they knew nothing of Patterson. Police files show a man by that name was arrested Aug. 20 on suspicion of draft eva sion. He was released two days Ia- ter when he produced a 4-F ciassi- fication card.
