GYMNASIUM SALE WEARS COMPLETION

Superintendent William T. Zah- radnicek revealed this week that the nearly year-long negotiation between the School Board and the Coop for purchase of the gymnasium is nearly completed.
 The School Board now has a 90-day option to purchase the gymnasium for $20,000 as soon as the Coop furnishes a deed to the property.
 Much needed renovation of the gymnasium will probably have to wait until next year, Zahradnicek said. Although $18,000 was includ- ed in the 1853 budget for this renovation, the money had to be spent on four-room addition to the school when it became evil dent that the new elementary school would not be completed this year.
 The School Board Monday night okayed Architect Edwin Crittenden's final plans for the new elementary school. The plans are now in the process of approval by the Home Finance Corporation in Seattle

Tax Assessment Changes Must Be Reported by August 1

Palmer School District Assessor William Head announced this week that assessment forms are being sent this year only to known real and personal property owners who have not previously appeared on the district assess ment roll.
 Property owners who wish to make changes in their assess ments should call at the school assessors office in the second floor of the Neal Wright building addition by August l. Otherwise the assessor will make his assess ment on the basis of last years figures.
 Failure of more than half of the property owners in the district to return assessment forms sent out last year is the reason for this years change in procedure.
 New property owners are advls- ed that any real or personal prop erty acquired by residents of the district before January l, 1852, is subject to this years tax of 10 mills. Failure to receive an as- sessment form does not relieve any resident of his tax liability.
 The assessor will start making up the 1852 tax roll on August l. Real and personal property tax statements may be expected on or about September l.

Joan Crawford, the movies
hardest working star. finally is
making money for herself after
all these years.
And it couldn't happen to a
nicer girl.
The perennial glamour queen
has been paying off studio
mortgages since the jazz age.
Now. she's out plugging her
first independent movie, Sud
den Fear"
And judging from the critics
first reports, Joan may be on
the management side of movie
making for some time to come.
Some thought her a little
foolhardy when she chucked a
cozy contract with Warmers to
sign with an independent pro-
ducer. Joseph Kaufman, to
star in Sudden Fear" at no
salary. That deal, in effect,
amounted to Joan putting $780,
600 Of her own money into the
picture. She'll get hers out
Of a share of the profits.
Trade paper critics call Sud
den Fear" the best Crawford
picture since Mildred Pierce"
That won her the 1945 Academy
Award.
Such reaction would cause
most Hollywood stars to sit by
their swimming pools and wait
for the money to roll in. Not
so Joan.
She Tries Hord
She knows too well that you
can't cash in good notices at
the bank. So, she went on a
cross-country tour which would
do justice to a presidential can
didate. In city after city, she
met with press and theater
owners selling her picture.
For, with Joan, her business
Is a business. No other femi-
nine star tries harder to take
care of her fans and public.
AS is often the case with people
who have never known anything
but hard work in their lives,
Joan works steadily although
she has the wealth to take life
luxuriously.
Joan credits integrity and
hard work for keeping her on
top of the Hollywood heap for
better than Is years.
I sampled her integrity the
first time I met her many
months ago. In earshot of the
producer and other studio brass,
she told me that the picture she
then was making was one Of
those innocuous things that
could trap the customer for 80
minutes before he realized he
was watching a stinker." She
added that it was the fifth time
in her career that she had
worked on the same plot.

Mississippi, No
SpotIess Stream
HOLLYWOOD,

A few months ago Universal
International built a nice. new
artificial river on the studio
back lot. Along with the river
went an elaborate and expensive
filtering system to keep the water
clean and sanitary at all times.
Thousands of tons of cement
formed the base so that the
water would sparkle brightly,
uncontaminated by dirt of any
kind.
A few days ago the studio in
augurated the spotless river.
How did they do it? Simply by
pouring eight tons of San Fer
nando Valley mud into it and
swiShing it around until the
project was dank and dirty. It's
all because the stream will debut
as the Mississippi River at St.
Louis for scenes in "Missis-
sippi Gambler" starring Tyrone
Power.

The dangers of an actor being
carried away by his role were
graphically illustrated by Cam
eron Mitchell during a scene for

Fox.
In the climactic scene of the
film in which Mitchell and Rory
Calhoun have a showdown gun
fight, Mitchell was so eager to
beat his opponent to the draw
that he discharged his pistol
before it was. fully withdrawn
from the holster. The blast
from the gun, which was loaded
with blank cartridges, blew out
the bottom of the holster. For
tunately for the actor, this alb
sorbed the total effect and he
was not scorched or burned in
the discharge.

Still Turns Heods
A child of divorce and from
the wrong side of the tracks in
San Antonio. Tex, Joan has
been working hard since she was
a toddler.
Her formal education stopped
at the sixth grade, although she
later spent enough time as a
working student to get a smat-
tering Of high school and college
education. A good figure and
dancing feet took her from be-
hind a notions counter in Kan
Sas City to chorus lines in Chi
cago, Detroit and New York.
There an MGM producer saw
her, and. on New Years Day,
1926, she was on her way to
Hollywood with a $75-a-week
contract at MGM.
That seems a long time ago,
but Joan still has one of the
best figures in the movies. In
this blase town she is one of
the few stars who can turn
heads when she walks into a
cafe.
And, in a world wnere every
body calls everybody else "dar-
