n beauteous ''B" girl. who was
really good girl In disguise, and
two fetching school-marms.
Coed Guys Win
There was q big gun fight when
the crooked gambler got his just
due, the Indians attacked the

ched that right away, draping the
no-good carcass of Chief Arrow-
head over the pump by the well.
The big finale ended In q clinch
between Casanova Dan Loyejoy
and the lovely B Girl behind q
big red cowboy hat. I learned that
Dan got this juicy role because the
rest of the guys were sissies and
wouldn't do 1t.
Way back the first Of October
when the play started, the two
young sons Of Commander Walter
Toy and Dorothy Toy were pro-

Allen, 31s, and David, 6, showed
Iup for the first days shooting. They
were to have been cowboys. How
ever, before the next movie max
ling, Allen fell III Of polio. He was
taken to Children's Variety Hos
pital in Miami with paralysis Of
both legs. So David had to finish
the picture without him.
Friday night ''Lovejoy Produc-
tons" showed the results Of this
|neighborhood project, and al the
kids decided that 1t should be for
the benefit of Allen Toy and all
the other little kids like him who
have fallen victim Of this dread
disease and are being cared for
|by the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis.
At first they were going to charge
admission to the picture, but deci-
lded that they had had too much
fun making it, 50 they made big
bags of buttered popcorn instead.
They didn't set price on their
Ilabors but passed out the popcorn
and the big quart fruit Jar. That Is
how they wound up with $40 to
give to the March Of Dimes.
Enjoyed ~ Al
There were 81 lids there, watch
ling, applauding and making
small-fry wolf calls at the pretty
ldamsels in the picture. Besides
that there were various and as
sorted proud parents. Il was q good
picture, and q wonderful neighbor-
hood project. Pete Lovejcy says
there hasn't been a black eye or
a lacerated skull since they all
started working together on their
movie.
I talked 10 Aliens father last
night, too, and he says that Allen
is doing well.
There Is every hope til he
win be able 10 walk again, and
although there Is some weakness in
