"I owe the world another
picture" Mario LAMA told me
after his non singing television
deal last week. It'll be either
The Vagabond King or 'Carou-'
SELL" Who's he kidding? He'll
have to lose at least another so
pounds before facing a finn
camera. Besides, Orestes Kirkop
has the lead with Kathryn Gray
son in "The >Vagabond King"
There's one simple way 4 for
LAMA to prove he can sing today
as we'll as he did two years ago
invite the critics to hear him
warble in person. He went into
hiding after CHS admitted they
used Mario's tWo-year-old rec
ordS on the show. Mario had
his old makeup man from
Metro, Keester Sweeny, pretty
him up for the big occasion.
Betty Cradle, who was merely
terrific, has two more TV shows
IF they take my option up, ;"
said the blond movie queen
modestly. They will. Betty was
so nervous she "blacked out
twice during the show" she
told me. The big surprise
at the color casting: Fred Clark,
whose wife, Benay Venuta, was
steaming because his name on
the credit sheet was too small.
And she was right. "Never mind,
honey" soothed Benay, they
used your own name" Fred's
fine thesping was the framework
that made everything else fall
into place. 4. If LAMA had
failed to appear, Cradle and
Hubby Harry James had three
numbers in reserve.

Washington this week. The idea
was to film authentic back
grounds for the Washington
phase of the life story of DIR.
Peter Marshall, the late pastor
of the New York Avenue Preshy-
terian Church.
Wanted especially for this pur-
pose were the Marshall home
here and the church whose pull
pit he occupied, but the Holly
wood visitors received a rude
surprise. The Marshall home has
been so extensively remodelled
by the retired admiral who now
occupies it that a stand-in house
down on Capitol Hill had to be
used. The church, as everyone
around here knows but appar-
emily no one in Hollywood knew,
has been completely rebuilt.
The movie-makers. headed by
Actor Richard Todd, undoubt-
edly would claim that no retalia-
tion prompted what happened to
the Washington models. A num-
ber of these, required as extras
in a scene in "A Man Called
Peter" were summoned from the
Patricia Stevens agency.
This was their big movie op-
portunity and they turned up
clad in their finest finery, look
ing their prettiest. They were
promptly photographed in a rain
scene, hidden under umbrellas
and with their backs to the
camera.
ACTOR AT WORK-If you
are going to need the services of
an actor any night during the
week of October 25, between
8:45 and 1885 o'clock, say, he'll
be available. He is David Kar-
Ian, who plays one of the roles in
THE Fifth Season." due to set
up for a week at the Shubert
Theater starting Monday, Oc-
tober 25.
Mr.. Karlan's role is, from one
standpoint, one of the best an
actor ever had. 1t requires his
attention and presence only for
five or six minutes at the start
of the play. He doesn't need a
dressing room because he uses
no makeup. He doesn't even
need a nail on which to hang his
hat; wears it during the scene.
Since taking the part in THE
Fifth Season." he has had quite
a career in televiSion drama. He
comes to the theater, does his
five or six minute scene, then
departs for some TV show which
starts at 9, $50 or 10 pm. At
II, he's back at the theater to
take his curtain calls with all
those actors working for one SAL
ary week.

his last under his present exclu-
sive contract. His agent. Louis
Shupr, let it be known that the
comic would not sign another
exclusive pact with any one.
Hope. according to Bob
Thomas of the Associated Press,
has made no secret of his un-
happiness with some of his recent
vehicles. They haven't been set
ting any box Offices on fire and
Hope naturally would like to
place the blame somew here other
than on his own private
shoulders.
This is not the first time he
has quit Paramount, or made
noises like he was about to quit
Paramount. A couple of years
back he was reported to have
threatened never to make an
other movie there.
This was during or just after
the filming of Here Come the
Girls" which is still floating
about the neighborhood routes.
A visitor to the set while this
was being made thought at the
time that Hope may have been
misquoted rather than threat
ening.
The day the visitor was on
hand. Hope was making scene
with Fred Clark, Arlene Dahl
and a dog that knew it's own
mind. Time after time that aft
ernoon the cast went through
the scene, only to have it ruined
in the end by the dog, charging
in at the wrong time or in the
wrong direction.
The visitor suggested that Mr..
Hope hadn't really threatened
to quit. Someone had just over
heard him saying, Either that
dog goes or I go. There isn't
room enough here at Paramount
for both of u.s."

This time the comic probably
means it. He has been around
in show business and no one
knows any better that this is a
poor time to be delivering any
ultimatums just for the sake of
publicity.
The Hollywood gossips have
too many things on their minds,
or whatever, right now. That
business of Mario LAMA and the
tWo-year-old phonograph records
on the TV show still has a lot
of mileage in it. And now Marilyn
has left Joe, which is almost as
bad as if the swallows left Capis-
trano and the bluebirds deserted
the white cliffs of Dover.
A topfight comedian merely
severing his ties with a major
studio after II years hasn't a
chance. Right now zsa Zsa
would have trouble getting at
tention if she blacked both Rubi-
rosa's eyes. Mario and Marilyn

ANNAPOLIS, Aug. 25.-It
is football time again at the
Naval Academy, but there is a
difference this year. The silent
gloom that usually seemed to rise
out of the Severn like an omin-
GUS fog and hover over that area
containing McDonough Hall and
the Nays practice fields has

Boone.
Schedule Won't Be Easier.
'The admiral believes a win

boost the academy can have"
Capt. Loughlin said, land must
confess agree with him.
Admiral Boone is DESTROYS of
having the academy football
teams visit all sections of the
country. After all, it is ma
tional institution.
/ That undoubtedly will affect
the schedule in the future, the
captain added. II won't say the
schedule will get any tougher"
he continued, 'but I can tell you
one thing: It won't get any

Bob Porterfield, out for at

bother to suit up last night as
the Senators dropped a 40 deci-

Spain S Streak
Bars C,ockiness
On Giants Part
Seven Straight Wins
Give Southpow Shot
At 20 for Sixth Time
BY the Associated Press

The froht-running Giants are
trying to match their longest
winning streak Of the year today
after seven straight victories, but
they're not counting their World
Series money even though
they're four games ahead of the
Dodgers and seven and q half in
front of the Braves.
One of the big reasons Leo
Durocher is being demure about
claiming the championships is
Milwaukee's Warren SPAIN, the
tall. slender southpaw who's
toughest when the chips are
down.
The 33-year-old Dutchman
from Buffalo has been the key
figure in the revival of the
Braves since mid-July, when
Charlie Grimm's club was mired
Is games off the pace.
At that time SPAIN was an
$40 pitcher. Since then he has
posted seven straight victories
in which he has allowed a total
Of only IL runs. He hasn't lost
a game since the Reds pasted
him, 7-3, July 10, and his 1910
record gives him a good chance

the sixth time in his major
league career, which covers nine
full seasons.

and was headed for the saith
shutout of his career when the
Phils pushed over a run in the
eighth.
During his streak he has
beaten the Giants twice, 5-4 and

Monahan has three brothers.

Francisco, 20 miles from Bur-
,lingame. A sister attends high
school. He no longer wants to
be a doctor, but is enthusiastic

The line presents a problem
which Line Coach Homer Hobbs

solve. Because of>11is size, 6-foot-

cent statement he made. The
young man who turned movie ac-
tor to portray the role of Joe Louis
in The Joe Louis Story seems
to have taken himself apart, ana
lyzed his difficulty and written
himself a prescription. He says, in
part:

fooled me. They stood UP. Now I'm

can be. You'll see a different fight

Somehow we think this has a
healthy ring. We have met other
young athletes who went off on
tangents and tried to be what they
were not, but didn't know they
were not on the right rack. Here is
a young man who has looked him

Clipped Cows Will
Give Cleaner Milk

Butch" haircuts on dairy cows
make sense if the haircut is in the
right place, reports w. R. Van
SAINT, extension dairy specialist al
the University of Arizona.
Cleaner milk is the reason for
clipping the hair from a cows I'D
der and hindquarters. Dirt collects
in this long hair and falls down
into the milk, causing milk sedi-
ment. Clipping keeps your dairy
herd cleaner and cuts down the
chances of dirty milk.
Clipping saves time and labor,
too. You can clean off a clipped COW
faster and with lot less effort
just before milking than you can
a cow that isn't clipped. The
clipped cow just isn't as dirty to
begin with. Long hair growing on
the udder, flanks, and Underline is
a collecting place for dirt, filth, and
bacteria. No matter if you're using
milking machines or milking by
hand, clipping makes a big differ
tence in cleaning up your milk.
In clipping the, dairy COW, begin
at the tailhead, clip around the
base of her tail, and cut her switch
off about four inches from the
floor. Work on the udder next.

cially those growing on the rear

NEW YORK, (GlobaD - Allan
Freed, powerful disk jockey, is do
ing a fine race relations job via
his WINS Radio Rock and Roll
Programs. Allan, former Cleve-
land disk jockey, known as "Moon-
dog" has set New York and the
entire Eastern Seaboard on fire by
constantly airing rhythm and blues
records of WINS powerful $4,000
watt station on his early evening
show and his late night show,
known respectively as Rock and
Roll No. 1 and Rock and Roll No.
II. His fame has spread, as we'll,
to foreign shores, and heehas many
fans in Bermuda.
Now, this is important, because
Freed, through his programs, is
forcing white disk jockeys who
have never aired these rhythm and
blues records, to put them on their
programs. Incidentally the term
rhythm and blues" is sort of "un-
derstood' in the record trade to
mean race" records. But Freed
has had more mail in the less than
four months he has been here than
any other disk jockey. He gets be-
tween 1900 and 1000 pieces of fan
mail daily, and he is quickly tax
ing away many of the other disk
jockeys fans. These new Freed
fans have never heard this music
before and they are wild about it.
