A George Washington eleven with
more spirit than a haunted house
will try to pull one out of the hat
for the old grads tonight at Grit
fifth Stadium, where 1t meets up
with the Gobblers from Virginia
Tech at 8 o'clock In its annual
homecoming game.
The Colonials will be staring
across the line at no Halloween
pumpkins but rugged aggregation
of cadets who've had bumpy ride
themselves since the first game of
the season, and who also are trying
to shake off a losing streak. They
came within a couple of points of
doing 1t last week in leading Mary
land right down to the finish before
dropping a 21-19 decision.
The Techmen will be accompanied
by their 127-piece band, directed by
James S. Schaeffer which-they
hope-will soothe G. WIS savage
breasts and inspire the Gobblers to
victory.

PauIette Gets
Profits Share

By SheiIoh Grohom

Paulette Goddard will get 20 per
cent of the profits, as well as $780,
900 when she stars in Anna Lu-
casta" for Columbia. Temporarily
holding up the deal is the choice
of director and okaying of the fin

prove both before she signs. She's
the best business girl I know.
It now looks as though Olivia De
Havilland's Snake Pit" will not be
released until late next summer
because Goth Century-Fox does not
want to compete with itself for an
Academy award and the studio is
banking on getting something for

Olivia is unhappy about 1t because
she would naturally like to be in

something, asked Miss Mayo if it
was not difficult to work oneself
into a mood of living fantasy-for

not always the same people.

asked If it was a strain playing
opposite Danny Kaye in hilariously
funny scenes. How" he wanted to
know, do you keep from laughing?"

but something ike that happened
yesterday. For luncheon, he sent

The scatter-brained aspect of it
was entirely the critics fault. To
q man they seemed to take the
attitude that it Is ridiculous to talk

Of women's magazines.
1.-THE best of these, or at least
the most expensive" someone said,
"are just ads, solid advertising with
absolutely no interruption of read
ing matter within pages"
whats wrong with ads?" Miss
Allen wanted to know, and when
she added they were far more
artistic and decorative than most
combinations of type and pictures,
she robbed the opposition of any
further argument.
Miss Mayo agreed quite enthusi-
astically, which probably proves
that people who edit magazines for
women know more about women
than movie critics ever will.
A deluge of other subjects got
mentioned in the conversation, how
to cut roast chicken, Hollywood
columnists, the art of George Raft,
whatever happened to poultryless
days, Walt Disney, man who sat
behind Miss Mayo once at movie
in Van Mugs, Calf, etc.
But it was all very agreeable
and at the end, it seemed like
nothing better could have hap
pened in behalf of 1.-THE Secret Life
of Walter NIFTY" which opens at
Keith's on November 26.
Perhaps Miss Mayo and Miss
Allen ought to come around in ad-
vance of all movies.

Judge UphoIds
Equal Pay for
Negro Teachers
By the Assoeioied Press

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 8.-Federal
judge Wayne G. Borah ruled yester-
day that Negro school teachers must
be paid the same salaries as white
teachers of equal qualifications.
He said Negroes are denied equal
protection of the law as guaranteed
by the Constitution when they are
paid under a dual system which
provides higher salaries for white
teachers.
Judge Borah's decision came in a
three -year-old case against the
Iberville Parish county, La. School
Board. Wiley Butler McMillon, a
Negro principal, sought Federal
Court injunction to halt what he
called discrimination against Negro
teachers
Mrt McMillon said that as prin-
cipal of the school at White Castle
he received an annual salary OF
S505.5O, while white teacher OF
similar qualifications was paid
$1.47420.

The House of Bishops Of the

America is on record opposing "the
casting of public suspicion on fell
low citizens under protection Of

Without singing out a specific
target, the house in its closing ses-

lest hysterical fear of communism
shall lead us to fight that danger
with weapons destructive Of the

The resolution said:
The sureSt way to fight COM

which justice and the dignity of free
men are in truth guaranteed to men
of every race and condition. An in
quisitorial investigation of mems
