Thus 1t is that one of the works

treated the question with minute

and a warm sympathy which war

CORRESPONDENT

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 81 - WD -
By night she entertains the rich
and the famous, by day she losses
'em over her shoulder and every
week she spits on Hollywood from
her house atop the city's highest
hill.
She's June Tegner, the worlds
foremost woman judo expert who
teaches that art of self-defense to
movie folk who want to keep in
shape for nitery brawls, tough
film assignments or alley slugg-
ings.
You'd think Miss r. would be a
hefty Amazon with piano legs and
a deep voice. But she's blonde,
trim and looks too weak to throw
a party, let alone husky men.
At night she's the Pope LIE Moko
of the Sunset Strip, the helpless
hostess who dishes up cocktails and
soft music instead of strangle holds
to celebrities like photographer
Paul Hesse and composer Harry
Ravel.
But don't let those delicate cams
and big, blue eyes fool you.
AT her judo schools in Chicago,
New York, and Hollywood she's
thrown to the mat such brave
pupils as actor Burgess Meredith;
Albert Borden, the milk man;
Percy Strsus, New York depart
ment store magaate, and Publish
er Hastings Harcourt.

When Meredith came to, she said,
he stomped out of the judo school

'He showed up at my house last
week and said he was ready for
some more lessons" she grinned.

After June moved to Hollywood

DO you love her?"

Her face lighted.
It was wonderfully quiet and
restful after the roar of the plane,
and this girl was restful too. Al.
ready Cliff felt far closer to her
than to Janet Norman, a n d far
less need to be on guard - she
wasn't the executive type. And
seventeen. Nine years younger
than he.
A rustic il the matched leaves
above his head brought him bolt
upright. and Cliffs startled gaze
rose to the glistening coils of a
snake gliding across a rafter.

SYNOPSIS

When Cliff Bogard accepted the
U. S. Rubber Divisions dangerous
assignment of opening up virgin
rubber plantations in New Dixie,
South America, he was surprised
to find that the person Washlng-
ton sent down to aid him In get
ting the option was Janet Norman
a tall, broaze-haired beauty. HOW
ever. she knew the territory, nav
ing been brought up there by her
late father, beloved doctor OF the
community. New Dixie, a KIND OF
feudal colony resulting from the
migration of Americans before the
Civil War, disliked outside inter
ference. as did their enemies, the
Blacklanders, a group of reDelll-
Gus natives. Cliff is angered when
Janet insists they start lmmedl-
ately for New Dixie, despite the
fact that only three weeks before
the authorities there had refused
Cliff an option and ordered hlm
to leave. Lack of gas forces their
plane to land near the jungle
home of elderly Wade Carroll,
whose occupation is capturing wild
animals for ZOOS. Surprised and
pleased to see Janet again, he
warns them that the B~lacklanders
are in the vicinity. No one knows
the identity of their new leader,
but the Dixie vaqueros have sworn
to capture him and Vicente, his
chief lieutenant. Lilli, attractive
young native girl whom Wade
adopted when her parents died,
has known the latter since child
hood. She talks with Cliff while
Wade saddles horses in prepa-
ration for the journey to New
Dixie.

Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On

Chronic bronchitis may develop II
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron-
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take chance with anymedi-
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomu1sion blends beechwood
creosote bySpecial process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way 1t quickly allays the cough, per-
hitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
