 The Navy developed the screen to carry on noise-reduction ex- periments on US. submarines, to make them les detectable. A pipe was installed across the bottom of the open end of a floating repair dock, letting a screen of air bubbles flow to the surface.
 This barrier was comparatively easy to install. did not interfere with submarines entering or leav- ing. and kept out ocean surface oil as well as low and high ire quency noises.

THOSE PECANS YOU BUY ARE BIG BUSINESS

Louisville. Ky. U.PD-Pecans aren't peanuts-they'r big busi- ness.
 Every year in the late autumn the pecan pickers head into the Kentucky river bottoms to har- vest a crop which usually brings in something like S25,000,000
 Pecans are picked up off the ground and it's a back-breaking occupation. The unprocessed nuts sell for 20 cents per pound. and the picker gets half of that. A good picker will make S20 a day.
 Once the pecan has gone th- rough the cleaning machine, the cracking machine. the sheller, the picker, the sizing machine, the drier and the packaging ma chine, it is ready to be sold for something like Sl.5O per pound across the counter in the fancier grades.

NEW YUM.
Margaret SULLIVAN and Leo Gem,
both plagued by more theatrical
offers than you can shake contract
ut, have signed for a Broadway pro-
duction of a play about celebrated
British court case.
The play has had an interesting
and theatrically hazardous history
Based on the noted Thompson-By-
waters case-one Of the most sensa-
tional in British jurisprudence in
which Mrs. Thompson was the last
woman hanged in England-its
course has been stormy indeed. Brit
!sh authorities would not permit its
production in England for years, be-
cause 1t limited miscarriage OF JUS
tice. 1t eventually was played in a
private club, as many such contro-
versial British dramas have been In
the past. Renewed interest in the
play came some months ago when
Parliament debated abolition of cap
ital punishment, with the Thomp-
son-Bywaters case figuring promi-
nently in the discussions.
Family Protest Avails.
1t finally was presented in London
after acquisition of a license but
was taken off the boards when II
was forced to shift theaters because
of an original booking commitment
The lord chancellor, says Henry
Sherek who produced it in London
thereafter refused subsequent
license because of protests from the
family of the hanged woman.
The play will be produced here
by william Taub, by arrangement
with Sherek. Shorek is here in be-
half Of Edward, Ny Son." Broad.

Film stars on the whole are petted

lied and eyen aped by the fans--but
how do they stack up under the
piercing searchight Of their own
kids? The offspring Of the stars,
like their buffers, hold them in no
heroic light. Let's look IN on o
typical Hollywood family.
Dennis Morgan Is quite sure about
one thing-it's a pretty rough job
for a movie idol to be hero to his
own sons. He should know q thing
or two about this subject. Dennis
has two. There's Stanley, just
turned IA, and Jimmy. who recently
reached the super-inquisitive age
of six.
Stan Is now at the age where foot
ball is the king of sport, particularly
at this time of year. It's only nat
ural, therefore. when Pop returns
from a hard days work at Warner
Bros, that the young man Snoulo
want him outside for session at
kicking and passing. Dennis played
the game himself at college In Wis
consin and still likes 1t, but some
times wonders If he's getting de-
crepit. He says:
Stanley goes to the college and
pro games with me and has become
quite a student Of the forward pass.
I thought I was pretty good in that
field myself. But he's critical. He
outsails me in distance and accu-
racy. And when he begins to Won
der why I can't be as good at the
game as Bob Waterfield and other
experts. Worst part of 1t all is that
Stan is trying to reassure me he
doesn't regard me as complete
hasbeen.
Jimmy isn't worried about foot
ball yet. He has his movie idols,
mostly cowboy stars. don't hap
pen to be on his list, suspect. I

Screen Love Best

Moreno Recalls
" the ASsoeIofed FFesS
HOLLYWOOD.

L
All Is not gold in glitterville.
Hollywood pays of in glamorous
memories, too.
So says Antonio Moreno, who
among Latin lovers predates Ru-
dolph Valentino.
Moreno, O. star as far back as 1918,
claims he has made movie love to
more beautiful and famous women
than any other actor. Now in his
COS, the handsome Spaniard Is
suave, gray-haired and quite con-
tent to let the younger blades take
care of the heavy romancing before
the cameras.
Moreno still works steadily In
pictures, as q supporting player. At
the moment he is cast in Co.
lumbia's Bonanza" with Glenn
Ford and Ida Lupino.
In his dressing room on the set
he recalled scenes he played with
the young Garbo, in THE Tempt
ress."
"She was, perhaps, the most aloof
yet fascinating actress I ever worked
with. In her love scenes she was all
glacial fire"
The way he said it, glacial fire"
didn't sound contradictory.
Then there was Pola Negri, with
whom he appeared in The Spanish
Dancer" And love-making with the
serial queen, Pearl White, in THE
House of Hate" was like "a work
out in a gymnasium" he ruminated
Gloria Swanson, his vis-a-vis in
MY American Wife" liked to quir
between kisses. This was somewhat
disconcerting, even though the
silent camera didn't pick up hel
muttered remarks.
