She was only years old. She
was making mud pies in the front
yard of her Hollywood home when
man walked by He stopped a
moment, smiled and walked thru
the gate. She was the girl he was
looking for He took her to Para
mount where he was a production
executive, and showed her to a
director. The director took one
lock at the tiny 5-year-old and
shrieked, please! Go hcme and
wash your face" The little girl
started to cry. But she went, then
came back and got the part.
That night she erturned home to
her mother with $50 for her n ~

to remember. And now she has

ON THE FRONT
IN THE VALLEY
FIRST BIRTHDAY

Imperials Red Cross branch Is
celebrating its first birthday this
month, and in the one year that
it has been organized as a separate
branch it has accomplished many
worthwhile results.
Both Imperial and Holtville are
organized as branches OF the 81
Centre chapter of the American
Red Cross, Imperial achieving the
branch status a year ago, Ben HulSe
was first branch chairman and Car
men Gibson, the second chairman
and present head of the branch.
Imperial branch has an active
home service committee, splendid
Junior Red Cross organization, Is
holding classes in first aid and is
making plans for home nursing
courses.
In addition. a station wagon has
been made available to the branch,
and every TuesdaT night Imperial
women come to Ell Centro to help
make surgical dressings at the cen
ter in the Ten Thousand club house.
In fact so many have sometimes
Signed up that the station wagon
has to make two trips.
Imperial also is proud OF its war
production work, the WorkrOOm be-
ing open every afternoon. Here
women of the city secure yarn for
knitting and the cut-out garments
to be made into articles of clothing.
This branch has one worker OF
whom it is particularly proud, Mrs.
Avis. Mrs. Avis lives on ranch
near Imperial, and manages that
ranch, which in itself is a full time
job as any farmer can testify. But
Mis-. Avis does not stop there-She
does a tremendous amount OF Red
Cross work, one small item being
the making of just six pairs OF pa
jamaS a week. Every Monday MIS-.
Avis appears at Imperial Red Cross
headquarters with six neatly made
pairs of pajamas, and takes home
six more to finish during the week.
1t is no wonder with members
ike that, that Imperial can Gel
ebrate it's first birthday as Red
Gross branch with a coed deal OF
pride.

Why do SO many of us lambaste our
professors? To heap ridicule upon
them is pretty much the rage in cur
rent Washington 1t is curious indi-
cation of the topsy-turvy nature of
the times.
Raymond M 0 y, once the fair
haired collegiate in the White House
and adjacent office buildings, turns his
guns on Vice President Wallace, using
adjectives rejecting upon Mr.. Wal
lace's erudition, instead of arguments
of fact against what Mr.. Wallace said.
Now it is true that often there is a
great gulf between the thinking of the
'intellectual' who knows theory and
that of the practical man who has
lived and worked with the problem.
But it is the current rage to excori-
ate education, not interms that simple,
but getting to that same point just the
same.
1t i'll becomes nation that pays
more for education than any other on
earth and that, by and large, gets its
moneys worth
Back in the days of NRA there was
a young graduate who ran hog-wild in
his sheep-skinned exuberance. But
there was an older professor whose
long thought-out theory was of i'm
o1yy
1t isn't education itself that calls
for brickbats; it is the misuse of edu-
cation.
Some of those who would most
readily sell the country down the river
have been those who have had little
school education, but great deal of
practical" ward politics or business
experience.
On the other hand, some of the
smoothest workers in Washington to-
day are highly educated and very
suave corporation lawyers.
Again, it is forvite Washington

There's a saying that cts a free

And the best and surest way to keep

We need the thinking of men who
have been trained to think. And we
need to quit this senseless and child
ish yapping about men who have gone
through the years of study leading to
what is known as education.
The cheapest way to bring down an
opponent is to do it with ridicule.
Those with the least brain power use
that cheap way 1t suits their lack of
brains, and it appeals to multitudes

That the majority can be thus led

things have happened in times of emo

If we do not build, after this war,
some better structure for the world,
then we may easily enough cease to

freedom and abandon.
Some of the current side swiping

JUNGLE ROMANCE
BRINGS THRILLS
TO 10Th CENTURY

Bringing thrills, riotous comedy,
wild jungle romance and beautiful
Technicolor scenes, Beyond the
Blue Horizon" the new Dorothy
Lamour jungle film, opened at the
goth Century Theatre last night.
1t is a Lamour more exciting
than she's ever been who appears
in Paramount's Beyond the Blue
Horizon" Dotty captivated las t
nights audience. She's back in a
sarong, boys and girls, and she
looks great Hearing Dotty sing her
new ballad, "A Full Moon and an
Empty Heart" is itself worth the
price of admission.
The antics of Jack Haley, the
comedian, and chimpanzee
named COCO, are uproarious and
add bright supplement to the ro-
mantle scenes between Dorothy La
mour and Richard Denning, her
new jungle sweetheart. And, in adj
dition, there are many jungle thrill
scenes.
The featured cast of Beyond the
Blue Horizon" is an unusually
capable one Headed by Denning
and Haley, it includes Patricia
Morrison, Walter Abel and Helen
Gilbert.
For romance, thrills and adven-
ture, mixed with good, hearty
laughs, don't pass up Beyond the
