to find pair of spurs that jingle
tangled.
He was back in few minutes
with six pair.
There oughta be good jingle in
one of these," he said, sheepishly.
Joel McCrea started trying them
on, walking up and down in front
of the sound mans microphone. The
sound man clamped on his ear
phones and shut his eyes.
On pair No. 3 the sound man
opened his eyes.
That's it," he said Perfect. They
jingle, jangle.'
Action" Director Gilmore said.
THE Vilginian" was back in pro-
duction with spurs that jingled.
A COUPLE OF CHARACTERS
Sonny Tufts and Brian Donlevy
were in their dress rooms
They're in the picture, too. Sonny
plays the pal the Virginian has to
lynch when he discovers him rus
tling cattle. Donlevy is the black
hearted villain who tries to steal the
Virginian's gal, Barbara Britton
and gets killed in gun duel. Hoss
opera formula No. 82X.
Donlevy admitted he wasn't toe
good on a horse. He's Seagoin
man. Give him rolling sea to a
buckin' hay burner any old time.
But with Sonny. the Boston So
cialite, it was different. He loves
horses. Sonny said not to mention
it. but he even rode when he was
only IL. In Boston's fancy horse
shows on Chestnut Hill.
THE guys will rib me to death if
they hear about this" he said, but
I used to ride in a linen coat, ascot
tie. polished boots, high hat and
thumbs up"
The thumbs up business was
mighty important, too, he said.
II was the best thumber upper
of any kid on Chestnut HILL
SADDLE SCENES
But this movie riding was Won
derful, he said. How can you fall out
of a big western saddle after riding
in those fancy eastern horse show
BOBBY traps?
The cast cf "The Virginian' fig
ured Sonny would break his neck
the first day in the saddle. But
Sonny went about the business of
getting into the saddle like an ex-
pert. He had been taking riding
lessons for three weeks. Does this
horse know what to do?" asked
Sonny.
Listen. buddy" said the nag'S
owner. THAT horse has been in pic
lures longer than you have"
Sonny did all right, though. He's
even talkin' western lingo-with a
Boston accent.

After all this was the third time

PAINTINGS ARE
HGHER FOR "a

The acreage to be planted to
crops in Montana in 1914, In
GLIDING that already seeded to
winter grains, will be nearly
three per cent larger than that
of 1943 and the largest since
1882, according to the annual
March acreage intentions sur
vey released this week by the
state office of the Bureau of Ag-
ricultural Economics.
This increase, however, will
not quite meet the war goal OF
total crop acreage for 1914, and
in adjusting their various crop
acreages according to farm ma
chtnery and farm labor limit
ations, farmers apparently will
under-plant war goals in some
crops and over-plant them in
others, the report indicates.
In past years, March planting
intentions have been good indi-
cations of final paintings and
have been changed only when
weather conditions, farm labor,
prices or governmental action
have caused adjustments. In the
present instance, adjustments
may result from the effect Of
the report itself, showing the
failure to meet goals of certain
of the war crops and to over
plant others. or from improve
ment in the farm labor outlook,
in the case Of sugar beets.
