HOLLYWOOD
By ERSkINE JOHNSON

Doctor Takes a Wife There's
That Woman again? Lots of
laughs. Ken Englund wrote the
screen plays by day.
NIGHT WORK
But in his spare time at night,
Ken Englund locks himself up in
his study, forgets Hollywood and
writes what he wants to write, muir
Ger mysteries, psychological hor-
ror stories, character studies of hus-
bands who plot to kill their wives
and wives who plot to kill their
husbands. Good ones, too.
But does Hollywood ever give
Ken England chance to write a
horror story? No.
'Englund on horror yarn?
Don't be silly" shout the produc-
ers and the directors and even the
studio gateman. why, he's the
best comedy writer we've got.
So Englund doesn't even go to
the trouble of discussing his pet
theory, that comedy and psyche
logical horror stories have more in
common than meets the eye. Take
it this way" he says. when Cary
Grant drops a banana peel and
Irene Dunno slips on it, it's COM
edy But if she broke her back,
became cripple and plotted to
kill Grant, there you've got hor-
Tor story. Or take it this way:
The irate, misunderstood wife lets
off steam by throwing dishes at
her husband. That's funny. But
if she got smart and started to SLOW
ly poison him to death, then you've
got horror story"
How did Ken Englund. the ror-
TOR story writer, get mixed up with
comedy? 1t goes back to when he
was a l5-year-old high school STU
Cent in Chicago. He entered the
RKO studio story contest and won
$3.50 and a screen credit for The
Phantom of CrestWood."
GOT A REP
From then on he turned out
murder mysteries by the dozen for
slick and pulp magazines and go,
himself quite reputation as q
horror expert. But when Holly
wood was slow in buying his sub
sequent chillers, he amused him.

soon he was making more money
from his jokes. And when you
have only few dollars in the bank

Engage Enemy Soon on
LARGE ScuIe'-ChurchiII

LONDON, Feb. II. cUP)-Prime
Minister Winston Churchill told the
Commons today, in a report on his
conference with President Roose-
welt, that the allies dominating aim
is to engage the enemy's forces on
land, at sea and in the air on the
largest possible scale and at the
earliest possible moment"
I'VE have to make the enemy

the same way he is being made to

You've all heard of HollyWood's
waCky merry-g -go-round on which
comedians become villains, villains
become heroes, dancers become
singers and singers become dane
ers.
Well, this is the story of how
Hollywood turned a young man
into a literary Jekyll and Hyde-a
comedy writer by day and horror
story writer by night.
His name is Ken Englund and he
crashed Hollywood by winning an
RKO studio story contest with
spipc-tingling thriller titled, The
Pb1ntom of Crestwood
BuS although he still writes and
sells horror stories, Hollywood
knows him only as the life of the
story conference and one of the
best comedy writer's in the busi-
ness.

Love" Good Girls Go to Paris"

AS Local Currency in '33

During the national "banking

was SO scarce in some communi-
ties that local currency was issued
by business men to carry on op-
erations.
In Wallowa county, Oregon,
notes were issued of real buckskin
each was stamped Half Buck, "
or Zone Buck" The Chamber of
Commerce of Tenino, Washington,
issued wooden money. 1t proved
very popular and, in all, some 25,-
600 pieces were circulated in de-
nominations of Csc, SEC, and ST..
These were valued at over $4,000.
