A Thought For The Day Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.—Proverbs 6:6. There is always hope in a man who actually and earnesfly works. In idleness alone is there perpetual despair.—Carlyle. A S y i " Hollywood Keyhole, : ywoo yhole, a 7 oy DAN THOMAS . * NEA Service Staff Correspondent. . HOLLYWOOD.—Five rew faces, all still strange even in Hollywood, soon will be occupying promi nent position on the silver screen. They belong ,to Frances Grant, Barbara Blane, Rite Cansino, Madelyn Earle and Rosita Diaz— eacn of whom has just been signed to a long-term contract by the FFox studio. But it's still a bit too early to predict just how brilliantly these new film proteges will shine, studio execLtives express considerable confidence in the whole group. Oddly enough too, they're all brunets. Which may mean that the trend in screen actresses during the next couple of vears will Dbe toward dark-haired maidens. One of the girls, Miss Blane, never vet has faced a movie camera. That's an experience to which she can: look forward when she arrives in Hollywood in sbout three weeks. Barbara was discovered while dancing in a night eluh in New York. So outstanding was her beauty, her acting career dg an ingenue in a Malden, Mass,, contract without even being subjected to the tor tures of a screen test. And believe me, those tests are torturous. Prances Grant, smallest of the quintet, gtarted k}]er aoting caree ras an ingenue in a Malden, Mass,, “stock company . Later she went to New: York where ‘she grabbed a job in the Ziegfeld IPollies. Then she was discovered by a Fox seout in “Forward, March.” He offered her a minor role in Will Rogers' last ‘picture, “Doubting Thomas.” She made that parl stand out like a sore thumb. As a result she has ‘heen signed or a five-year ticket. " Decidedly Spanish in type and quite mature for her 17 years, Rita Cansino literally danced her way ifita‘;flle movies. This youngster, with long, raven Ylack hair has been dancnig ever since she could walk. About a year ago she started studying dra matics and recently she was cast for a role in the Spanish versior. of “The Rest Cure.” Although born in tlis country, she speaks Spanish fluently. Madelyn Earle points to her contract as proof that winning a beauty contest still can get a girl a place; before Hollywood's movie cameras. The dar<- haired beauty from North Carolina captured first prizegin a pulchritude contest last fall, the prize being a trip to Hollywood. ~ The studio which brought her here let her go artflhei‘ had played one small role. However, a Fox jexecutive saw the film recently and offered her a contract immediately. ; ~ Rounding out the quintet is Rosita Diaz, who ap m in some 40 stage productions in Madrid and raris beforé coming to the United States. So far she hds made only one film here, a Spanish ver sion of “Angelina.” But she was so good in it that JFox officials now are going to put her in American Lo A \ St ~ As soon as 100,000 feet of film can be trimmed to 12,000 or 15,000 feet, America will get a pictorial story of of Admiral Byrd's latest expedition to the SoutF Pole. Tractors nose-diving into snow -filled crévasses and collapse of the Mountain House in shich Byrd lived lguring his isolation will be two featdrés of the film, according to John Herrmann, official photographer of the expedition. §,“3“"f,'%emmen here don't know how .well off they are,* Herrmann declares. “It was so cold that we &?}g*wear silk gloves to keep our hands from 11 ing to the camera mechanism. And a good bit ‘of the time we even had to heat the cameras and M’fié‘gore we could shoot at all.” - 4 e ' Hcllywood, often termed ‘“heart-break town,” ‘really fsn't that at all, according to Louis Sarecky, casting director for Walter Wanger productions. On the contrary, it is a land of eternal hope. . As basis for this contention, Sarecky pulls out a list of 2,000 names. It reperesents men, women and youngsters who once gained fame on the screen only to lose it again. Another list reveals that 1,886 of this group still are working in the studios at any kinds of jobs they can get-—each still hoping that his big moment will come again. The Bther evening, when Joan Blondell got home from work, her young son was giving his lungs a good workout. In an attempt to quiet him, Joan turned a cartwheel. The crying immediately turned into a delighted gurgle. But as soon as she quit, herlzegan to ¢ry again. She turned six more cart wheels before he finally dropped off to sleep. . The mnext evening he was just waiting for Joan - 10 gel home. Then he started yelling and nothing it cartwheels would quiet him. Now the actress B Wondering il she’s let herself in for a regular b tq.le‘ _‘gs\;flhalk up another error against a studio press r‘t'.

Connecting, as it does, the Bankhead highway from the east and the highway to Florida, tourists travel through this city should show a marked improvement. Some years ago, tourist travel through Athens was one of its biggest feeders, but on account of the incomplete highway into Athens from the east, much of this travel was detoured via other points. Now that the highway is paved from the east to Florida, it is expected that. this class of pleasure seekers and investors will resume their travels over this highway. This fall, visitors for the football games will be pleased to find Lumpkin street widened and paved. In the past, the con gestion of traffic over this route has been dangerous, but with the completion of the contract, the street will be of ample width to accommodate the thousands of visitors, who attend the games. ‘ The people of Athens are appreciative of the action of the members of the high way board for widening and paving this street which has heen a menace to motor ists for vears. REAL ESTATE ON UPWARD TREND Athens real estate, improved and unim proved, is on the upward trend. There are few houses, in good condition, that are on the rental market. While there are a number of new houses being built, the de mand for modern homes is greater than the supply. Medium size homes are being sought for by purchasers and renters. The market is active, and for those who have money no better investment could be made than that of real estate, improved and unim proved. Of course, there has bheen a lethargy- in the market for several years, but that time has passed and normal conditions are re turning. The records show that a number of sales of homes have been made quite re cently, to say nothing of the number of farms that have been sold during the past few months. From all indications, it ap pears that normalcy is returning and that hefore the year has passed, general condi tions will have improved. FCOD RACKETEERS ARRESTED The relief agencies in New York have experienced no little trouble in breaking down and controling the food racketeers. This organization succeeded in having hundreds of its members secure food, ice, milk and other commodities, under false pretenses, and then go out and sell their “hooty” to the public. Hundreds of ped dlers made big profits on food secured un der such circumstances. In reporting the condition to the Mayor of New York, the Commissioner of Markets, said: ‘“Produ cers and distributors, as well ag the gen eral public, are assured today that food supplies will reach their ultimate destina tion without unnecessary charges, trib utes and exactions along the route. The same is true of the ice industry of the city, once a rich field for big and little racke teers”’ 3 No doubt, similar conditions exist in many sections of the United States, but on account of the large population of New York, the field for such operations is much wider. Of course, local conditions in that city has a great deal to do with the ir regularities. The municipal administra tion—that is the head of the government in that city is presided over by a Republi can mayor, elected, however, on a fusion ticket, but the factional feeling and rival ary existing has caused the mayor to charge the responsibility to the interfer ence of the Democrats in that city through the direction of Tammany Hall. While on the other hand, the Democratic leaders, al lege that it is a movement on the part of the Republican leaders to use relief funds for the advancement of their political party. However, it is in a ““mess,” and so long as it is kept up, whether Democrats or Republicans are responsible, it is cer tain that the needy will suffer. | There should be found some way in which these racketeers of food and other necessities of life could be dealt with legal ly. It is stated as a fact that there are more than 4,000 cheating dealers and ped dlers now engaged in the business of grafting on relief funds. FLORIDA GROWS PROSPERQUS Notwithstanding the State of Florida has met with a series of disasters during the last decade, it never seems to slip too far down but that it comes back stronger than ever. Statisticians have compiled reports of the tourists visiting that state. During the present season, that is of 1935, they have spent $625,000,000. Such a sum. seems incredible, but the report is based on absolute authoritative sources. It is true that more visitors from the east and west have come south this year, but no one would have believed that the sum total of expenditures would have reached' such startling figures. However, it is a| fact that Florida is prosperous and condi tions are improving materially in all sec tions of that state, The vegetable and fruit crops in that state are of course among its greatest as sets, and whatever tourist trade that is re ceived in just another ieeder of potential resources. Florida is a great state, in cli mate and in production of foedstuff. There grow the finest oranges, grapefruit and vegetables to be found in any section of the‘ United States, all of which places the‘ Peninsula State as one of the ranking com mon-wealths in the country. Beet tops are more valuable as food than the beet roots themselves. No one antiseptic has ever been discov ered that would kill all kinds of germs.

The performers themselves are excited. Hundreds of friends are meeting again after a winter of vaudeville or circus tours in Europe. They'll sit on a crate and chat _with you about their triumphs, their families, their new acts, or circus life in general. They represent every na tionality from Chinese to Arab. I watched a tearful reunion be tween a Japanese juggler and & ‘Bpanish aerialist. " ‘My: guess is that there's . less Yealousy between circus stars than between, people of the thea fer.! A dozen women rushed to congratulate the girl of the Wal lenda troupe when they all had come down safely from their high ‘wire. 'The Rooneys drew a round of spontaneous applause. A hun dred admirers « were willing to ‘hold Annie Laurie’s dressing wown when she slid down a rope from the Garden's rafters. Costumes ¥nformal Nondescript rehearsal cos'mmes heighten my interest in the pro ceedings. Clowns look sillier than ever dressed in natty suits and innocent of makeup. Acrobats are no less acrobatlc while wearing anything from overalls to shorts. Aerialists seem to prefer working in bathing ‘suits. KEquestriennes ride in beach pajamas or anything else that "happens to' be handy in their dressing rooms. Dorothy Herbert's favoriet prac tice costume is an old sweater and some “voluminous white silk| shorts. . Con Colleano likes plus-' fours and a dirty sweater bhearing the name of a Brooklyn gymna- | sium when he rehearses his danc-‘ ing on a tight-wire .Instead of| ’the brilliant silken cape that the | ‘cash.-eustomers see, he swirls an | ancient raincoat. { ‘ | Fred Brandna, -the ringmaster, | ;isv an unimposing figure in a| brown suit, but he's absolute dic ’tntor of thé proceedings. News;, papermen . cluster around Dexter Fellows, "“dean of circus press ; agents, and guffaw when he con fides that Elmer Twisto, the con-1 tortionist, comes from Big Bend, | Kansas. .Frank Braden, another | conjurer of publeiity, says hel ‘hopes the stork will hurry up and visit the menagerie, because tha best kind of circus story is the arrival of hbaby. Quintuplets, of ¢ourse, wolild be-the most blessed of all possible events. More Sex Appeal My prinecipal circus enthusiasms this vear are for the performing bears, practically all of the aerial ists, and the Wallendas, who al ways give me nervous indigestion. Incidentally, that handkerchief - sized net which a few flunkies hold beneath the high-wire troupe doesn’'t mean a thing/ except that it saves some of the wear and tear on the nerves of onlookers. The Ringling show has gone in for sex-appeal this year on a scale apropriate to a Follies chorus. From the time of the grand entry, with three lody drum majors leading the .band, the cir cus i predominantly a girl show. There are ringmastresses, women animal trainers, and more women than ever in the tumbling, riding and- aerial acts..
