Tourists Warned of
Danger From Beers
In Yellowstone Park

Two visitors to Yellowstone
National park this season have
been added to the rising toll
of uear casualties bringing the
total of personal injuries by the
bears in the past 16 years to
TIA
The first bear injury this
season happened June II on
the road from West Thumb to
Old Faithful when a Philadel-
phia visitor was trying to take
a picture of a large black bear
through the partially opened
window of his car. The bear
reached in the window and
with a swing of his paw caused
a cash about an inch long over
the visitors left eye. Other
tourists in the area were feed
ing the bear against park
regulations.
Almost a month later a Wis
itor from Burbank, Calf, was
hit by the paw of a bear while
parking on the road near Mt.
Washburn on Dunraven Pass
causing a deep scratch above
the right eye. His wife was on
the opposite side of the ca
taking pictures of the bear
when the incident occurred.
Only one fatal injury has
been reported due to the bears
in the past 16 years even
though the average number OF
injuries reported per year is a.
This happened in 1912 to a wo-
man injured by a bear she
surprised while going around
the corner of a building. She
died a few days later in a To-
cal hospital. During the IS
years recorded numerous per
sons have required hospitaliza-
ton for several months due to
bear injuries.
The number of bears in Vel
lowstone as estimated by park
authorities is $50 American
black bears and 200 Grizzly
bears. This season there are
more mother bears with young
cubs around the park roads
than normally. Park officials
are urging the tourists to o.

THREE days after High Button Shoes"
Il Broadway's new musical hit, opened,
Phil Silvers was still swamped with kilograms
of congratulations. He read and re-read them
with hoarse murmurs of gratitude Che had
laryngitis). One in particular brought forth
croaks of delight every time he unfolded it:
LOVE AND KISSES, RITA HAYwoRrH" mot
bad" he said, for guy who started out as
Third Banana at Minsky's."
Third Banana, for the uninitiated, is very
humble station in show business During the
depression Phil played burlesque; the average
burlesque company carries three comedians
who are always known as First, Second and
Third Bananas. (Non-comedians are Straight
performer who is articulate enough to speak
lines has the dignifed title of Talking Woman.
But more of this interesting industry"later y
If you can catch up with Silvers between
steam baths (Which he is confident will cure
anything from poison ivy to heart failure),
you will find him very funny fellow. You
will say that he is probably worth all the noise
Broadway is making about him.
In High Button Shoes" Mr. Silvers has
exhumed the almost forgotten art of the bof-
fola, or belly laugh. Many Broadway people
think he is the next big new comedian,
due to follow in the footsteps of Danny
Kaye, Bob Hope and Jimmy Durante.
Broadway is happy at the turn of events,
because practically everyone in show business
is a close friend of Phil's. The public is
apparently happy too, since it is buying
nearly $4,000 worth of tickets each week.
MIR. Silvers is happy because he collects a
percentage of this sum - which, his friends
insist, he spends mainly on steam baths
The Jackpot
SILvERs is particularly happy because he's
been knocking around in movies for seven
years without quite reaching stardom; now
he returns to his home town and suddenly
hits the jackpot.
Silvers treads the boards in High Button
Shoes" as Harrison Fioy, cheerful swindler
who will gladly sell you the chain off your own
watch. Charging about the stage, hawking
everything from fake real estate to "genu-wine
'Pantagonian diamonds. folks - only thirty
five cents, he follows in the grand tradition
of W. G. Fields and Groucho Marx.
Because of his horn-rimmed glasses, Silvers
also reminds one of Harold Lloyd - or at
least sort of poolroom Harold Lloyd AS a
matter of fact, his glasses, like Lloyd's, have
no lenses. Real glasses are seldom worn on the
stage because they flash light rays back at the
audience. Il wish could wear my regular
glasses" he says. I'm blind as bat without
them. Some night I'm going to trip over a

chorus girl and break my neck" He thinks
for moment and adds, "Of course. if it gets
a laugh, we'll keep it in the show
Outside of steam baths, the most extraor
binary thing about Silvers is his wife, 10
Carroll Dennison, who must certainly be one
of the prettiest girls in the North Temperate
Zone Qn fact she won the Miss America title
in 1912 and was a movie starlet for whitley
Miss Dennison is from Texas and finds the
New York climate rigorous, but says she'll
stick it out as long as Phil is so happy. Hes
like kid with Christmas tree The shows
hit and he's back with his old friends"
Walking Woman"
Being an intelligent young woman as well
as pretty, she has put her spare time to use by
enrolling for some courses at nearby Hunter
College. Phil is very proud of her scholarship.
Brilliant girl brtlliant!' he says. "A real
Talking Woman if ever saw one"
In the early stages of High Button Shoes
Phil was hardly as happy as he is today. Con-
stant rehearsing made his throat buckle up
like an ACCORDION and his part seemed to him
hopelessly unfunny. When the show tried out
in Philadelphia the local critics gave it a ter
rible roasting. Silvers, they said, was par
ticularly tragic.
During the next three weeks, while the
show was in Philadelphia, Phil and his stooge,
Joey Faye, threw out a lot of the original
material and substituted new lines of their
own invention. Some of their gags were res
directed from old burlesque days, which goes
to prove that joke which makes 35-cent
customers laugh can make six-dollar custom
ers laugh even harder.
At least, opening night on Broadway seemed
toprove it. Blase rst-nighters roared, and even
the critics were constrained to smile Silvers
was suddenly First Banana of Broadway.
LOVE AND KISSES RITA HAYwoRrH!'
Actually, Phil didn't start in show business
as Third Banana. He really began at the
age of eight in the tough Brownsville section
of Brooklyn, doing singing act with play
mates on street corners and in bars.
A few years later Gus Edwards heard
him on the boardwalk at Coney Island,
recruited him for his famous kiddie
revue. Phil worked with Edwards for three
years. Then his voice changed and he got fired
He tried another vaudeville act as juvenile
comedian. After couple of years. vaudeville
died Che wasn't specifically responsible)
Finally he went into burlesque. Success!
Third Banana Second Banana -. First
Banana! A hundred and twenty-five bucks
for only % shows week!

was in burlesque. I'VE did the noon show
