HOLLYWOOD-Tony Martin
and Cyd Charlse are one of the
happiest couples in Hollywood,
and lunching with them in the
commissary at MGM last week I
noticed that they projected an
affection for each other without
words.
AS Tony had to get back to
the Easy to Love" set and
Esther Williams, began the in
terview with him and asked:
What first attracts you to a
woman?"
Carriage and teeth. and then
it's an interest in what she has
to say" Tony said, looking at
his wife. "Cyd and I were as
signed to work on a picture to-
gether, and I noticed that she
walked as if she were on a cloud.
And when I first talked to
Cyd I felt sweetness and tender
ness, qualities more important
than beauty" he added. But she
didn't like me at first"
I asked Tony to tell me how
much Importance he placed on
appearance.
"One hundred per cent with
out conversation" he answered
quickly. when I was running
an elevator in San Francisco, I
still tried to dress like an execu-
tive. I felt better when I was
well groomed and in a suit"
Tony looked so smart in a blue
gle-breaSted jacket and a
sport shirt of several shades of
blue that I asked him if his good
taste had been a gift.
whenever I enjoyed the way
q man was dressed, I analyzed
this and soon discovered that I
liked to see Solids" Tony said.
"You are heading for trouble
when you vary patterns and use
too much color.
And l think a man can spoil
his whole appearance if his shoes
are not nicely shined," he added.
II still shine my own"
What is your top grooming
secret?" I wanted to know.
Tony gave this a moment of
thought before he answered: II
think men should be more care
full about trimming the stray
hairs from their nostrils and
ears"
Tony was called back to the
set. but as a final question I
asked how he felt about a girl
combining marriage and career.
II wouldn't recommend it for
q very young couple, because it
takes a lot of mature under
standing" Tony said. But I
feel a man should always allow
his wife to express herself in a
career or any way she wants, or
she will develop Illustrations and
will not be happy"
I had noticed Cyd's graceful
hands and when Tony left us I
asked her for the trick of grow
Ing such long nails.
They used to be a problem"
Cyd confessed, because every
time I hit something I snapped
of the end of the nail. But my
doctor gave me some calcium
capsules and I've had no trouble
since I take four of these a day
two at night and two in the
morning"
How has Hollywood helped
you improve your appearance?"
asked.
by suggesting that I cut my
hair" Cyd answered. Being a
dancer, I wanted to wear it long
and did-becauSe I could do
more things with it. But every
one loves it so much short that
I want to keep it this way"
What do you feel has been
the most important factor to
your success?" I asked.
Cyd slipped a glass of iced tea
and thought seriously. II think

discipline" she finally said. For
a dancer success is married to
discipline and divorced from pro-
crastination. make myself
have a lesson every day and
often there are so many other
things I would rather do. But
it is deadly to allow yourself
to accept excuses"
I told Cyd that Tony felt she
had the most beautiful carriage
Of any girl he had ever looked at.
do you think this can be ac-
quired?" I wanted to know.
Every one can improve pos
ture," Cyd commented. Again
the key word is discipline It
takes lot of effort, but the re-
suit makes it worth the work."
Mrs. Martin is a great believer
in exercise. so / asked her: IF a
girl has time for only one exer-
else each day. what, would you
suggest?" - 80 :. - :. r
Its the office spread which
spoils most figures" Cyd COM
mented. And to correct this a
girl should sit on a hard floor
and bring her knees up as if she
were going to hug them. Then
put the palms on the floor for
balance and start to rock. Keep
both legs together and slap them
to the floor as hard as you can,
first in one direction and then
the other.
do this exercise slowly and
gradually at first, working up
both speed and length of time"
Cyd added. IF you do this to
music at night and morning
you'll find your baskside and
your waist will slim down."

talk about another person. We
may say, for example:

At other times we may say
that some one walks as softly as

''roars like a lion"
The fox comes in for a strong
share, as when We say that a
person is foxy" or las sly as a

people have spoken and written
about the clever ways of foxes.
Aesop's Fables tell about the
sharpness of these animals.
The fox family includes gray
foxes. Arctic foxes and so on. but

In certain sections the fox
population appears to have
grown during the past century.
These animals seem to feel that
they have as much right to eat
poultry as the farmers. The only
question is whether they can be
clever enough to escape the guns,
traps and dogs which are used.
Foxes make their dens in holes

The bidding:
South West North East
! heart Double 3 hearts Pass
( hearts All pass
Mr.. Champion did not bother
to reply as he knew he would
be wasting his time. This is one
type of bid that MI. Muzzy will
never understand.
When you jump raise partners
suit after second hand passes,
your bid is forcing to game. You
should have about the equal of
an opening bid in high cards,
plus support for partners suit.
However, when partners open
ing bid is followed by a take-out
double, the Jump raise is pre-
emptive. 1t promises nothing in
defensive values and it's princi-
pal purpose is to make it difficult
for the opposition to find its best
spot.
If Mr.. Champion had held a
good hand, he would have shown
1t by a redouble. OF course Miss
BraSh knew all this, but she had
q good hand and decided to take
q shot at game.
Mrs. Keen took the first two
tricks with the king and queen of
diamonds. She then led the nine
of diamonds. Mrs. Muzzy played
the jack and Miss Brash ruffed.
Although the defenders seemed
to have the cards to win two
spade tricks and two diamonds,
the hand was set up perfectly
for a strip and end-play.
Miss Brash took two rounds of
trumps, then caShed the ace of
clubs and ruffed a club on the
board. She ruffed dummy's last
diamond in her hand and ruffed
her last club on the board.
Now she led the jack of spades
from dummy and it made no diff
ference where the king and
queen of spades were located.
The jack was finessed when Mr..
Muzzy did not cover and it lost
to the queen. The forced spade
return gave Miss Brash her con-
tract.
Mr.. Muzzy was still worrying
about the three heart bid. Very
lucky to stay out of trouble" he
said. "If I did like you. Cham
pion, I'd get shot"
And if I bid like you," replied
Mr.. Champion, I'D shoot my
self"

Southern U. Study Shows Negro

Negro cotton farmers Of Louis
