Actor Trouble
PERRIN has trouble with actors
occasionally. There was the time
he loaned all the necessary para
phernalia for the memorable crap
game in Eve of St. Mark" in
which Vincent Price sadly fritters
away his Army pay. After the
days takes, Price stuffed wads of
the phony dough into his pockets.
The actor, on arriving home,
gave the money to his wife. casu-
ally mentioning that he had got
into a crap game with some for
eigners. Cash it in when you have
a chance" said Vincent. lightly.
And the wife of the actor tried just
that.
That's why we're scared when
actors keep our counterfeit money,
says Perrin. Eve never know
where it's likely to end, or where
we'H end up. Sometimes we lose as
many as three hundred items in
one picture. Most actors like to
take a souvenir of the pictures
they make. That can wreck our
inventory"

He then picks up steady pace OF

Zurlta Is some kind of a puzzle
to the local habitues OF Jacobs
Beach and he has been festooned
with all the balderdash that a new
conner might expect in such a
spot.
The buildupp has conferred main
ly around the peculiar FRANKS that
Zurita plays on opponents by
switching from orthodox right
handing to southpaw fighting and
back again. He does that. But
one critic rent so far as TO say
he has improved on the Fitzsim-
mons shift and another says he
changes from a right-handed
stance to a left-handed without
moving his feet. In other words,
some kind OF freakishness has
been built up when, as matter OF
fact, he doesn't do anything very
strange at all.
He is going to meet a fairly
tough customer tonight. Beau
Jack isn't the best lightweight that
ever lived, but he has considerable
enthusiasm, a fair punch and he
can take a few punches to get in
close. He should win.
Zurita beat an Angott who was
drained OF his strength by last
minute Matchmaking according
to Angott himself and his manager,
Charlie Jones, and Zurita's win
for the National Boxing Associa-
ton title probably wasn't too i'm
pressive after all.
What | seem to he trying to say
is that Zurita will probably lose
the fight because Beau Jack Is the
better of two interior fighters.
He is the former New York Com
mission lightweight titleholder
twice-over. He is rugged and game.
He is not great fighter, but should
figure to outpoint at least such
gents as Zurita who has a good
record in wins but none too i'm
pressive one when the calibre of
opposition Is considered.
Also Beau Jack will come in at
around 1871 pounds. That's his best
weight. At 1875 or under he seems
sluggish.
Frankly, I think he will knock
Zurita's ears off. although the best
line | have on the latter has been
his gymnasium workouts, a motor
iously bad yardstick.

Home sewing always popular
with many women, is the center
of increased interest since the
war. All over the country, mil
lions of women and 'teen-age
girls have discovered that by
making their own clothes they
can be both smart and patriotic.
National Sew and Save Week,
February 10 TO rs. will give
women Of all degrees of sewing
experience the opportunity to
learn new tricks Of the profess
sion. Stores will put forth their
newest patterns, fabrics and no
tons, coordinating their dis
plays TO make choices easy and
correst. Many stores will offer
free instructions 10 beginners,
and advise specific details TO
those who already know how to
sew.
Sewing for yourself and your
family has definite advantages.
Right now, you can be patriotic
by putting the money you save
into War Bonds. BY sewing, you
help manufacturers and retailers
cope with the problem of de-
creased supply and labor, now
that the clothing industry has
gone to war.
There is definite style adj
vantage in making your own
clothes, too. When you sew for
yourself, you are able TO choose
the colors, patterns and fabrics
that are best suited to your in
dlvidual figure. Styles were
never simpler or patterns easier
to follow. Materials by the yard
are still excellent in quality,
and new fabrics are now being
developed. In actual construc-
ton, your home-sewn clothes
will have those special finishing
touches that usually come only
IN more expensive ready-to-
wear. Your wardrobe will have
the originality that attracts COM
pllments from everyone.

Estimate Seen
As Surprise
toCon1nlunities
Meeting Held Today
TO Study Costs
Of Treatment

For the first time since the
giant Lakeshore Intercept r
drain for South Macomb was
hooked up with Warren Town
ship, Center Line, East Detroit
and St. Clair Shores-to the
virtual abandonment of the
Nine Mile Disposal Plant -
these communities this week
will be faced with figures on
the cost Of sewage treatment in
Wayne County's River Rouge
disposal plant.
The cost-from $1,000 10
100000 per year-will be a
distinct shock to the South Ma
comb area, it was admitted by
Drain Commissioner William
Harper, who has called an emer-
gencY meeting Of all community
representatives for 10 a. m. to-
DAY in the supervisors room of
the County Building.
Harper completed a survey of
sewage flow and maintenance
costs this week, and plans to
present the figures 10 officials at
the meeting. The Drain Com
mittee of the county will also
be in attendance.
NORMAL COST
In offering the normal an
nual cost estimate of S77,l6l-
derived from his survey-and
the estimate of 100000 annual
costs if storm water is fairly
heavy during the year, Harper
said he believed these estimates
will surprise and shock some
of the communities, which must
pro-rate their share of the cost.
Harper's survey revealed that
the average flow through the
LakeShore Interce p tor last
week end was 38 million gal
Ions per day. At the rate es-
tablished March II, 1912, in an
agreement between TO m er
Drain Commissioner George T.
Smith and Wayne County, the
cost would run S43 per million
gallons for Wayne County treat
ment of sewage, and $40 per
million gallons for maintenance
work in this county, TO be paid
by the South Macomb area.
This would be approximately
S21l per day for sewage dispos-
al, or S77,16l per year, for
normal flow.
