COAST DRIVERS
CONVERT CARS
TO USE BUTANE

San Francisco, Feb. 21-(UP)-
Gas-famished western motorists,
who have used kerosene, benzene,
cleaning fluid, clorox everything
but whiskey, which thew can't get
either-to stretch their mileage
across the VESTS wide spaces, may
find the answer to their dreams If
they follow the example of Califor-
mia motorists.
These California motorists some
1000 of them-are road-happy to-
day because they are getting all the
"gas" they want at 10 to IA cents
gallon and no ration coupons to
bother w.t..
The answer is the ''gas" called
butane, technically known as "lia.e-
fed petroleum and unrationed in
California.
The motorists will remain happy
unless irate OPA officials find some
way Of catching up with them.
Conversion OF PASSENGER cars to
the use of putane requires speclaI
carburetor and several other gad-
gets which are easily obtained, but
for which a priority must be re-
quested from the Petroleum ADJ
ministrator Of War, Harold Ickes.
The priority, however, requires no
certiflcation by any government
official. If the butane motorist plans
to use more than 1000 gallons a
month he has only to have his deal
er certify that sufficient butane is
available.
Peyton Hough, head of the WPB
automotive parts division here, es-
Inmates that conversion to butane
costs between $3.50 and $500. How
ever, butane will average about IA
miles per gallon even in a Cadil-
lac, Lincoln or Packard.
The fuel, long advocated by some
petroleum engineers as motor
fuel, is being used in hundreds of
trucks. It burns with less carbon
and Is the nearest approach to a
high octane fuel available today to
motorists.
Fuels previously tried have all
ways been found wanting. Kero-
sene was dirty and too Slow-burn-
ing, cleaning fluid wouldn't pull the
mountainous western grades, clorox
just didn't work.
Butane wants nothing but OPA
sanction. At present, OPA officials,
aroused by this wholesale leak in
California gasoline rationing to
series of grim conferences, have
found no way of stopping the use
OF butane except to emphasize that
butane-using autos are still subject
to tire rationing.
Fire Marshal Kelly, head of San
Francisco's fire-prevention bureau,
has pointed out that the sale of
butane, a highly explosive gas, is
illegal in this city, and that motor
lists who have converted their cars
for such fuel will face prosecution
and possible seizure Of their auto
mobiles.

Music comes high, if you are a
harpist. According to the harpist
who is part of the NBC "star Play
house. ensemble, harp is not only
one of the most difficult instru-
ments to master but is also one of
the most expensive to buy and main
tain. Deluxe models cost up to $15,-
600 or more each, and average up
keep amounts to nearly 500 a year.
The instrument heard Mondays
through Fridays each week on Star
Playhouse" last year cost $3.50 for
tuning and general repair. Biggest
single item was new strings, of
which 40 were replaced at IS cents
each. Like wartime steak dinners,
harp strins are not of the quality of
the prewar productivity fray fas-

WAVELETS
BY ED LEAMY

When Joseph Curtin isn't star
ring in Mr.. and Mrs. North,' he's
dreaming up practical jokes. The
other day, he walked into a noted
Fifth avenue jewlery shop and de-
manded to Sc an expensive watch,
price no object. After viewing sew
eral, Curtin was shown the shops
pride and joy-a little gem, en-
crusted with emeralds. "This," he
was informed, will cost you three
thousand dollars" Apparently en-
ragged, Curtin dashed the timepiece
to the floor. Il hate emeralds!"
he screamed.
After he'd been grabbed by two
burly attendants, Joe smiled inno-
Gently and opened his fist = in it,
lay the watch. He had palmed 1t
and thrown dollar vest pocket
Vodel Curtin tipped his hat po-
litely and walked out, carefully
stepping over the inert salesman.
They're still trying to revive him.
That matchless nose-it-all of CHS
Friday nights, Jimmy Durante,
doesn't feel hurt any more because
gals don't go for him at the same
rate-say-as Frank Sinatra. The
Great Scnozzola has become ''r-
justid" to the fact.
According to Jimmy, the gals who
lswoon for crooner are always look
ing for souvenirs-a piece of tie,
shoe, hank of hair, some teeth
"ehverryting"
And the mighty nose says he
couldn't afford anything like that.
AS Jimmy puts it, Sure me
millions of fans in the east could
me away with samples of me in
oescriptable, multitoojinous nose.
But what about the wimmen out
west-and me with hardly any nose
left? Disappointment and gloom!

Tenor Bill Days of the Groucho

the proud pappy of Lulinda Days,

business. When she was less than
months old Lu.inda made her air
debut with Bill on the Country
Church of Hollywood" program.
"She was a real trouper," declares
her father, never missed cue
never muffed a line-and such feel
ing!"
Lulinda's contribution to radio
Immortality consisted of "Goo-gaa!'
"New York is such cold town."
So goes the old adage, which is
vehemently contradic ed by one
newcomer to the allegediy heartless
metropolis. She's Verna Osborne,

her New York debut (Feb. 49, as

Aside from the fact that on Tues
day, February e, school kids OF
the nation will have an opportunity
to play hockey legitimately, Wash
ington's Birthday also assumes
paramount Importance in the adult
world. Swearing upon a stack of
cherry trees, the following reformed
tellers of the awful untruth, tell
you what happens when it becomes
habit forming.
Jimmy Durautee, of the Moore
Durante comedy show: II was an
awful liar when I was little shaw
er. Il was BARRIERS apprentice an
dey put me in charge of da midget
trade.) But OATS neither Abercrom-
bic nor Fitch. Every time I lied
me nose grew annuder inch. I was
mortifyin' an embarrassin'. too. I
didn't mind it when dey put me into
a side show an called me 'Da Boy
Wit De Elephant Nose But when
they attached a moor to me neck
an used me for a vacuum cleaner.
I rebelled. So OATS why believe in
tellin' da trut besides, there's
no dough in cleanin' these days :.

Phil Baker, of "Take It Or Leave
IT," Honesty is the best policy ).
unless your number hits. Like my
Cousin Citrus favorite story, to IL
lustrate this: about, the actor who
was on the witness stand and was
asked if he was a good actor. "I'm
the greatest, finest actor in the
world" he proudly acclaimed. After
the court session he was chided by
a chum for being so vain. II
couldn't help it." said the ham. II
was under oath to tell the truth"
Milton J. Gross, of The Cham

Street," Lying was a terrible Of
Tense In my native village and every
time we fibbed. we had to stand In
the corner. After a while, my head
began to assume an odd shape {.

off exhibits. I sank lower and low
er until I hit bottom. I became
radio announcer. But things are
looking up for me I'm keeping
my skull to the grindstone and as
soon as acquire slight edge, I'll
leave radio and take up forestry.
Just think Of it; I'll be the only
man in the world who can chop
down trees without an axe!"
Victor Young. conductor of the
orchestra heard on the John Charles
Thomas program, is doing his bit
with Dinah Shore and Bing Crosby
to see that the armed forces over
seas get recorded music. The three
are recording "Porgy and Bess" for
shipment across.
Ann Thomas, who plays '"Casey"
on Abie's Irish Rose, has found a
way to give her nationally famous
doll collection a patriotic twist.
Starring February II, she will lend
the collection out to New York de-
partment stores in an effort to
stimulate the sale of war stamps
and bonds. This is how it will work!
Admission to the doll exhibit, (first
of which will be held in Hearn's)
will be whatever the customer cares
to invest in the Fourth War Loan.
Joan Blaine, star of CHS "Valiant
Lady, serial, is collecting secord
class mail from all her friends and
acquaintance for the paper scrap
collection. She figures that if every
body saved his second class mail,
the shortage might end sooner than
anticipated.
The sponsor of the Radio Hall
Of Fame is setting up an all Mex
lean variety program to be shipped
in transcription form to some Is
radio outlets in all Latin countries.
Here's to Romance" will be a
musical comedy as well as radio
program, come spring Ed Lee is
writing the book and his brother,
Joe, is writing the music. Dick
Haynes, star of the radio show
heard Thursdays over CHS, will also
be star of the Broadway production.
Ask Abbott and Costello what
their favorite radio program is and
they'll tell you their own-with the
broadcast of Thursday, February
18th. Reason: that's when Dotty
Lamour will be their guest!
Knowing that to "sing' for the
G-men is gangster parlance for
"confessing," Dinah Shore was
trifle startled when she was re-
quested to come down and "sing for
the F'BI" at their Los Angeles con-
ference this week. G. Edgar Hoov-
