Joe E. Brown Accepts Role In Harvey
 Movie comedion
 Signs contFoet
 In New York
By JACK GAvER

United Press Stan COrresp0ndent)
 New York. Oct. 25.-CUP) Brock Pemberton has dropped the other shoe-and hit Joe E. Brown on the head with 1t.
 After almost a year of suspense the producer yesterday signed the famous movie comic to star in the second company of his invisible rabbit hit comedy, Harvey" which will headquarter on the west coast.
 When the Mary Chase play open ed on Broadway last Nov. and devealed FranK Fay, reclaimed from the night clubs, having the time of his life as Elwood P. Dowd, the gentle soul whose books (invisible animal friend) is six-foot white rabbit, the people who like to help others worry about their business began to feel sorry for Pemberton. here he was with the hit of a life- time, which people around the country were crying to see, but how could he ever cast touring corn- pany when Fay had made the lead- ing role so surely his own.
 Well, 1t wasn't one of those things that you solve between lunch and inner, and Pemberton is a fellow who likes to take his time anyway, So the suspense grew through win- ter, spring, summer and fall, with practically everyone except Joe E. Brown being rumored as set for the part.
 Some weeks ago Pemberton and his assistants decided that Brown was the man they were looking for When the comic came back from another of those long Pacific c. I, entertainment Torus, an offere was made. A couple of otgser producers also wanted Joe E. for shows.
 Enjoys Play
 He arrived in New York over the week end and Monday night saw a performance of Harvey" That did 1t. Late yesterday afternoon the contracts were signed to the fash ing of camera bulbs in Pember- tons office.
 No, I won't go see the New York production again." Brown said. Fay does grand job as Dowd, but no one would want me to do an initiative job. If I saw 1t again I might unconsciously be influenced by some of the things he does. Of course there are certain bits of business that are standard for the role, but there's a big op- portunity for individuality"

The champion of Tarzan of all time, Johnny Weissmuler, again dons his jungle costume for his ninth portrayal of the role, in "Tarzan and the Amazons," Sol Lesser's newest production for RKO Radio release, which presents Bren- da Joyce as heroine and again has little Johnny Sheffield in the role of Boy.
 Revolving around a strange race of women living in a secret and nearly inaccessible valley in the heart of Africa, the new offering is crammed with adventure and action in typical Tarzan style.

 On the same vessel with Jane is party of archaelogists who, one learning of the existence of the Ama2ons, are anxious to visit them. Tarzan, respecting the won1- ems desire for seclusion, refuses to guide the party. The explorers, how ever, persuade Boy to show them the way, and they are all captured and sentenced to lifelong slavery by the Ama2oIs.
 Their efforts to escape, and Tarzan's rescue>of his son, form the stirring climax of the fast passed picture, which is said to be the most exciting of the series. Barton MacLane, Marie Ouspenskaya, Henry Stephenson, J. M. Kerrigan, Shirley O'Hara, Steven Geray, Lionel Royce and Don Douglas have the principal supporting roles.

BEAUTIES HINTS Shoulders Should Be GiDen 7heS0nue Tender Care Your Face ReceiUes
BY ALICIA HART NEA Stan Writer

Those glamorous shoulders starr let Janis ('F5aiI to the Chief") Car ter veals here can be duplicated by almost anyone who will exercise the same diligent care she has lavished on them.
 When you are creaming your face, Miss Carter urges you not to let your enthusiasm fade at the chin. Keep batting and lightly massaging thin layer of cream into the neck, shoulders and right down to the wrists, she advises. You'll be surprised how quickly they vii respond to the treatment. DON'T BE A DROOP
 Tired shoulders will droop, and dropping isn't glamorous. Here is an exercise that rotates the shoul- ders and arms in a circle and will help counteract tense muscles. Stretch the arms out to the sides leven with the shouldrs, fists clenched. Now swing the arms and shoulders together in a rotat- ing movement upward and back ward.

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 25 - DEAR STAFF After listening to the gay chit-chat at Hollywood soirees and reading the effusions in movie fan magazines, I'm impressed by the need for factual dictionary of the Hollywood language "a handy little tome which would explain to laymen the terms most commonly used here in Filmville. For tn- stance:
 DARLING: A salutation common ly exchanged by glamour girls who are about to stab one another in the back : INGENUE: Any actress under 40 TEMPERAMENT: A term used in polite movie society to denote nasty disposition . WOLF: A predatory male animal from which Hollywood actresses ob- tain some of their finest fur coats .. YACHT: Any boat over six feet in length PERSONAL PRESS AGENT: A psychiatrist who cures the inferiority complexes of his patients by flattering their van- ity TALENT: A loose term used to denote all exhibitionist abil- tiles, from ear-wiggling to playing Hamlet" .. ANGEL: Any wealthy person who, through motives usual- ly anything but angelic, finances a play or picture STUFFED SHIRTS: Persons who openly ad- init angelic impulses and motives FASCIST: Any person who dis agrees, in any particular, with a liberal COMMUNIST: Any person who disagrees, in any par ticular, with conservative.

Mason Urges Removal
OF Examining Board S
Power Over Nurses

Commissioner Guy Mason today
suggested stripping all power from
the Nurses Examining Board be-
cause he said it has refused to ac-
credit the Gallinger Hospital School
OF Nursing.
Commissioner Mason's proposal
followed a hearing at the District
Building on proposal to grant the
Nurses Examining Board further
powers-the licensing of practical
as well as registered nurses.
II am opposed to it," Commits
sioner Mason said concerning the
licensing of practical nurses.
Cites Closing Of GWU School.
The Commissioner explained to a
room full of nurses that he feels
Gallinger Hospital has received an
unnecessary black mark" from the
nurses board and that the board also
in the past forced" George WASH
ington University to close its nurs-
ing school because it did not meet
arbitrary standards set up by the
board.
The Commissioner explained to
reporters afterward that the Nurses
Board should not control both edu-
cation and licensing OF nurses. He
suggested that the Commission OF
Licensure, which grants licenses to
physicians, should be given the pow
er to set nurses license standards.
The Nurses Examining Board
under his proposal. not only would
lose power to accredit nursing
schools but would become license
issuing agency under the authority
Of the Licensure Commission.

was described as unfortunate" by
