"Ahhhh, that Brando," Ray said

Ray. who will be turning up
here in his first starring role in
"The Marrying Kind" next week
at the Playhouse, is obviously
Brando's equal in self-confidence.
At least his equal. Brando has

Rays Self-confidence is the kind
that is not particularly annoying.
1t is a combination of youth,
rugged strength. and zest for
living. It is of a piece with the
quality that made Dizzy Dean a
public idol instead of an irritating
braggart. Even the opponents who
could not hit Dean liked him. It

He was Crockett's constable. an

him.

why. He is Republican, "a kind

he does not like to see people

He is confident this can be cor

That they might not take over

Stars, Worried, Take
Stock of Their Own
Condition
By Howord Heffernon
HOLLYWOOD,

The mental and physical pace
that always has been q part OF
the Hollywood life slowed down
with the news that John Garfield
at the age of 80, had died in New
York of a heart attack.
Once more the heart specialists
got a big play as hurried film
executives, actors and technicians
paused to take stock of their phys
ical condition.
The half q dozen top name
doctors who cater almost exclu-
sively to the screen celebrities re-
ported a big run-and this time
it was sparked by comparative
youngsters.
Garfleld's sudden death is at
tributed to a playtime schedule
much more taxing than his work.
When he came out here Is years
ago and attained overnight star
dom via -Four Daughters" Holly
wood was a dream come true. He
made the most of it. He was an
ardent tennis devotee, too. He
was known as something of q
marathoner with the racquet.
taking on one opponent after
another.
Three years ago, after suffering
his first heart attack-in the
midst Of one Of his frenzied tennis
jouSts-friends were astonished at
his judgment in accepting an ex-
acting screen role after doctors had
barely allowed him out of the hos
pital. This was a movie titled
Under My Skin" adapted from
Ernest Hemingway's MY Old
Man." the story of a big-time
Jockey who grows old and fat and
then sets out to show his son he
can ride again and regain his old
prowess.
The picture was made on the
10th Century-Fox lot and the nor
NAL course Of production was in
terrupted often by Garfield re-
lapses.
Garfield finally finished the
chore. but he looked drawn, tired
and ill. It is doubtful If he ever
fully recovered from the gruelling
effect of this film.
The nature Of Garfield's passing
and that of other leading screen
lights before him periodically
causes film folks to throw on the
brakes and rush to their doctors
for a checkup. But no matter
what they are told or how sternly
they are warned, the boys quickly
forget-and in a week or so are
again back in the old groove, fret
ting and fuming and taking a
night-and-day grip on all the
problems they can gather UP.

Surprising Victories in
British Local vofino
BY the Assecioted Press

LONDON, April 3.-The Labor
Party handed Prime Minister
Churchill's Conservatives a sharp
setback in the triennial English
county council elections, returns
showed today.
Worst drubbing suffered by the
Conservatives in yesterdays vot-
ing canes in London County,
where the Laborites won 81 out
of the 129 seats and Mr.. Church.
ills followers only 81. In the old
council they held "a apiece. The
odd man was a Liberal.
Conservative leaders described
the vote as an inevitable raction
from Mr.. Churchill's victory in the
national election last October.
Morrison Delighted.
"Our opponents have exploited
the difficulties Of the nation for
which they themselves are largely
responsible" said Henry Brooke,
leader of the London Council Con-
servatives.
Former Foreign Minister Her
bert Morrison, who directed the
Labor party's campaign, was de-
lighted.
Undoubtedly the national po-
litical situation has contributed, :"
he said. 1.-THE Conservatives at
the general election made a lot
Of false promises and implications

prices"
Labor won II seats in Bucking-

Middlesex. Both counties lie near
London.

Corning Drafts Report
On Schools Slated for
Transfer in September

School Supt. Hobart M. Corning
hopes to present to the Board Of
Education on April Is a report
showing which school buildings
will have to be transferred from
white to colored pupils for the
next school year.
In his regular weekly press con-
ference yesterday, Dr. Corning said
the report will show school board
members what we contemplate
for the next school year." He de-
cllned to reveal what changes are
being studied.
He indicated, however, that one
or more transfers probably would
be recommended to meet the ever
growing colored school population
in So-called transition areas of
the city.
Effective in September.
Any changes made by the school
board in the use Of a building
would be effective next September,
when the new term opens, Dr.
Corning said. And there will be a
transfer Of some buildings this
year, he added
The school superintendent said
the crowded conditions in the
three colored high schools-Car-
dozo, Dunbar and Armstrong
will be alleviated this fall, when
the Spingarn High School, at
Twenty-fourth street and Benning
road NE, will be ready.
Could Effect Saving.
Several weeks ago, DR.. Corning
presented a six-year building pro-
gram to the school board. In the
report, which contemplated the
expenditure Of some $40 million in
the next six years, he said this
figure could be reduced by as
much as $40 million by the judi
cious transfer of existing buildings.
The changes TO be recommended
to the school board later this
month will be the first years por-
ton of the six year transfer
program, he said.
Concerning the case of driver
training teacher now in Casualty
Hospital with a broken leg, DR..
Corning said there was no way
the teacher could be retained on
the school payroll. since he was
temporary appointee. The teacher
is T. G. Bennett of Mckinley
Highs staff, who was struck by
an automobile on March Is.
Lee Asks Restudy.
Adelbert w. Lee. school board
vice president and chairman of
the personnel committee, refused
to sign an order terminating Mr..
Benefits services with the school.
He asked for a restudy Of the case.
DR. Corning said that, since MIR.
Bennett is a temporary teacher,
he has no legal right to stay on
the payroll through long illness.
All driver training teachers are
hired on year-to-year temporary
basis. Although the program was
stepped UP last year. none of those
special teachers can become per-
manent until school officials set
up regulations governing the posi-
tions.
Mr.. Bennett could not qualify
as q permanent teacher in any
case since he is over As. the age
limit for permanent appointment.

British Dollar Reser,
sinks Below Level
|0f Financial Safety

LONDON. April 4.-Britain dis
closed today the gold and dollar
reserves which pay for her life
giving trade have sunk below crisis
level with q loss Of $685. million in
the first three months Of this year.
Since the war Britain has con-
Sidered a 81 billion reserve rock
bottom for financial safety. To-
day, Chancellor of the Excl1equer
r. A. Butler told the House OF
Commons, the reserves are down
to only SIT billion.
That's the lowest level since a
similar crisis forced q 30 per cent
devaluation of the pound sterling
on September Is, 1919. The rapid
decline Of the reserves has cut
them by more than half since they
stood at $3.S billion nine months
ago.
Sees Turning Of Tide.
Mr. Butler found some grounds
for hope. however. that the crisis
is beginning to ease.
He told Of q turning tide in
March and said toward the end
OF the month our reserves actually
rose, ~.
He did not disclose what low
mark they reached before the rise
began.
The slump Of the gold and
dollar reserves-which finances
the world trade Of the entire
sterling area-coincided with a Sc
we're slump in British exports.
Since the Conservative Party
won power last October. Mr.. But
Ter has imposed three series Of
import cuts totaling 81 $50, 900, 900
a year in an effort to make pur-
chases abroad At Britain's slen-
derins purse by the end Of this
year.
Position Remains Serious.
But he told Commons today it
is impossible to give the actual
cate when we will benefit from the
cuts we've made"
The effect Of the cuts "is now
being felt and should be felt as
the weeks and months 60 by" Mr..
Butler said, but added:
1.-The position remains serious.
A great mistake would be made if
it were thought that we had got
through to safe ground"
The decline of $685. million in
the first three months of this year
was smaller than the huge drop
of 1894 million in the closing
quarter OF 1851
That was one improvement.
Others were the month-by-month
accounts this year.
Losses in January were 1929
million, in February, 1886 million,
and in March only ST. million.
Relief From WindfalIs.
The March improvement, how
ever. was partly financed by wind
falls that aren't likely to happen
again.
For one thing, Britain got $28
million worth Of gold from South
Africa by paying out 10 million
pounds in sterling.
Another was the special sale of
$35 million worth Of rubber, tin
and lead to the United States
under an agreement reached in
January by Prime Minister
Churchill and President Truman.
And. finally. the United States
paid Britain $40 million under q
previous promise to cover part
Of the gold Britain lost through
obligations to the European Pay
mentS Union.
Mr.. Butler reminded the House
that British trade-no such spe-
cial payments-will be decisive.
Rather than relaxing, we must
redouble our efforts" he said.
