Is. But the boat rocks all the time.
And I'm weaving even when I get

life their eyebrows and say, "Ah,
ah--there's Tallulah again." But
there ] go again, talking too much.
Have been talking too much?
JOHNSON: Why no, Miss Bank
head. But I would like to ask e.
BANKHEAD: The studio gave me
little reception when I arrived in
Hollywood. First time in II years,
you know. Made a lot Of pictures
for Paramount. But I didn't like
them. Terrible roles. Anyway, the
studio gave me little reception
and some catty dame says to my
secretary, Hasn't Tallula changed?
She's so charming" ask you.
What else can be but charming?
What should do, tear up the Joint?
Womenl Bah. I don't trust them.
Cats. I'm always charming. Never
temperamental. Only with my work
That's right. I scream at a direc-
tor or an author because he's wrong
and I'm right. I know Tallulah
better than they do.
Johnson: OF course, Miss Bank
head, but :.
BANKHEAD: Oh-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Have got q hangover. Not liquor,
mind you +. OH, told you about
that, didn't I? Or did I? Well, any
way, I'm happy about returning to
the screen. It was a challenge to
me-to appear in q good picture.
Playa good role. OF course, to be
sordid, they're paying me a lot of
money. That's nice. But I do
think it's good time to be seen on
the screen with our boys fighting
thousands Of miles away from home.

HANOVER OUTFIT
IS WORKING HARD
Locals Figured To Be In
Full Force For Turkey
Day ARRAY

Coach Rupert Bryan, New Han
over High School grid mentor, an
nounced Monday that the Whining
ton-Wilson Thanksgiving game
would be played under the arcs at
the American Legion Field due to
the many expressions of desire
by local fans for the tilt to be
at night. The time for the ARRAY
has been set for 800.
The Wildcat squad began their
preparation for the engagement
Monday afternoon with a spirited
drill stressing the adding of pre-
cision to their offensive attack.
In previous meeting with the
Wilson eleven, which ended in a
scoreless deadlock, the Wildcats
found that it takes smooth work
ing offense to score against the
scrappy Cyclones. However, the
locals are expected to boost a
wel1-oiled scoring machine in the
Turkey Day encounter, as many
new plays have been added to
their re-ertoire.
The Cyclones recently racked up
win over the powerful Rocky
Mount club and are rated by local
pigskin observers as one of the
toughest of the Wildcats foes. The
game is certain to be wide open
contest featured by many tricky
manuevers on the part of both
elevens. The T formation employ
ed by the visitors will undoubt-
ably afford the fans with many
thrills as well as provide the Wild
cats with an abundance of trouble.
The Wildcats will taper off pre-
paration for the battle with a
heavy workout Tuesday and a
light drill Wednesday.

the game go on sale Tuesday al

Blue Brigade took immediate steps
yesterday to insure an inviolate

comrised one unit while Yoder,
Santone Bezemes, and Ostergen

Duke May Get Bowl Bid

DALLAS, Tex, Nov. %.
- Duke was not counted out to-
day as a possibility for the Cot
ton Bowl game in Dallas Janu-
airy i, despite statement
from the Durham, N. c.,
school that Navy regulations
forbid its acceptance of bowl
bid.
Gwen if we got bid to play
in the Cotton Bowl we could not
accept it because Of navy reg
ulations, and we definitely will
not request the Navy to change
its rules for u.s. said Dean
w. Fl. Wannamaker of Duke.
(The rule referred to fOrbids
a Naval trainee being absent
from the campus more than 48
hours.)
However, Dean Wannamak-
er's statement was not taken
here to mean that Duke would
turn down an invitation should
the Cotton Bowl itself go to the
Navy with request that the
rule be altered to allow the
team to make the trip to Dallas.

Cowboy Luttrall. now rated as
a sissy after his defeat by Babe
Zaharias last Friday night at Tha-
Ian Hall, has been picked to do
the honors as referee for the bout
between Zaharias and Pete Mama

Luttrall is expected to dish out
fairness to all concerned but it is
well known to all and sundry that
he has no love for the burly Zah-
arias after the roughing he got last
week. When Mannagoff gets in
tie tight spots, it will be interesting
to know just what L'uttrau will dc
to help him out.
Promoter Causey pointed out that
the bout between Mannagoff and
Zaharias was natural from all
angles the pair mixed it for a
few minutes last week after Man
nagoff was forced to knock Zah.

OUR AID TO THE SOVIET

The United States and Great Britain
sent to Russia, between October, 1941, AND
December, 1912, nearly $500 tanks. 5000
aircraft, $4,000 trucks, $4,000 tons of rub
Der, 831, 600 lightweight tons of machine
tools, metals, ammunition and small arms,
and 100000, 900 rounds of small arms am
munition.
These figures come from Capt. Oliver
Lyttleton, British Production Minister. who
revealed them in speech in February.
They are supplemented by a statement
made by E. R. Stettinius, Jr., Lease-Lend
Administrator, who says that, in addition,
the United States sent to Russia 100000
pairs of heavy boots, $4,000 tons of sole
leather, II, 500 ieeps and armored cars, L.
800 military tractors, $4,000 tons of rails,
$4,000 tons of other railroad equipment,
100000 field telephones, hundreds of thou
sands of miles OF. field telephone wire, 26S,-
600 tons of petroleum products, $50 600
tons of steel, 1885, 600 tons of tulol and other
chemicals and 161. 900 tors of aluminium,
copper, zinc and other metals
In the face of these figures it is hard
to understand criticism of the aid to Russia
program. It is more amazing to hear, by
way of foreign correspondents in Russia,
that several Russian generals asserted that
they got no American help at the front, ex-
cept trucks. No wonder Ambassador Stand
ley remarked that the Russians are getting
plenty of ''other kinds of war materials
and added, IF it's not at the front don't
know what they are doing with it."
