ST Hamburger
Held One Cause
OF Film Crisis

Hollywood, Cal, Nov. 18.-Holly-
woods depression has taken anoth-
er downward slide but still hasn't
become "panic" despite the means
of million-dollar movie mogulS.
More than 1900 craftsmen
penters, painters, clerical workers,
and stage hands-lost their jobs
last week. the Eagle-Lion Studios
closed up completely, except for a
skeleton crew, and Warner Bros,
one of the biggest studios, fired l.
600 workers en- maSSe.
The Screen Actors Guild, which
has 5000 members, reports only
372 of them under contract.
"This is a terrific decrease" a
spokesman there said. Last March
we had 463 under contract and in
March 1947 there were TAP. This
doesn't count freelance players,
who are probably hardest hit of
all, because any producer trying, to
save money will hire people he has
to pay anyhow"
Top Stars Still Pull
Top stars who get $4,000 a week
or $250,000 per picture aren't suf-
fering in the current slump. They
are still in demand because of their
box-office draw.
It's the character actors, bit
players and extras who are won
dering how they'll pay their bills.
Even last year, the best the
movies ever had, employment was
off seven per cent from 1910, and
by August of this year it was down
to three-fourths of what it was in
1910. This month it took another
dip.
Eric Johnson, president of the
Motion Picture Producers Asso-
citation, blames the Hollywood de-
preston on dollar hamburger"
and the loss of the foreign market.
Nothing For Luxuries
People have to spend their money
on food and rent and clothes, he
said, and there's seldom much left
over for luxuries like movies.
But the biggest blow to the in
dustry is the money it must leave
abroad.
"In 1885," Johnson said, Eve
took $125, 100000 out of our for
eign market. In 1947 it was down
to $9O,OOO,OOO. This year it'll prob
ably be $5O,OO0,OOO."

Hart and Nunez have fought
twice before, Nunez won the first
fight by default when Johnny dis
located his shoulder and had to
retire in the early stages of the
second round. Nunez also captured
the second fight by decision when
Johnny rehurt his shoulder in the
first round, although he continued
to fight, using only one arm.
That was three months ago, now
Johnny's arm is completely healed
and he has continued training
for the past month, completely re-
lieved of the acute pains. Wednes-
day night, Nunez will have slight
weight advantage but Johnny will
have two good arms to overcome
whatever Nunez will bring in the
ring with him. Both boys are conf
dent that they will win.

units show that six inches of in

the operating costs and more in
