laws. The worst bunch of men in
the penal hosts of the state have
been dumped here, men whom oth
er camps could not keep or con
trol.
“They have been handled :mdl
kept under discipline and required
to do their work in a way that
people watched them and wonder
ed how they could be so well
maneuvered, like unto an army of
hired laborers.
“Of course, as stated, the lncor-‘
rigibles have to be kept in chains
even out on the roads and in the
quarry, but there has been no driv
ing or anything approaching in
human practices. The legislative
committee could have easily foundl
that out by consulting leading citi
zens, county and city officials, m‘
the majority of the convicts who
cause no trouble and get every
privilege anybody could ask at
such work free of penal servitude.”
The editorial said ‘“‘the reports
would indicate that local people
were indifferent as to what was
going on right under their eyes.
But the people see and know and
are prepared to deny all charges
of cruelty, inhumanity, or punish
ment not in accord with necessary
discipline, and authoried by law.”
It added that the people of
Heard county and the aonvicts
themselves know they have human
treatment, “no matter what may
be the words of the report of a
biased or publicity-seeking legis
lative committee.

Look! ® There's a man under that 600-pound tiger, and he’s none:
other than Wallace Beery, the famous mowie actor. Looks as thoughy
he’s going to be gnawed to death, but don’t: worry—Wally got out of’
the struggle unharmed. You see, the animal had been well fed before

By DAN THOMAS
NEA Service Staff Correspondent
HOLLYWOOD.—WhkNace Heery
is going to wrestle with a tiger,
That sounds interesting. Screen
stars don’t tangle with wild ani
mals every iday. Let's go out and
watch the excitement. After all,
Wally might get mad and bite the
tiger. That would he news.
Here we are at the location-—the
“O’Shaughnessy’'s Boy” set about
five blocks from the M-G-M stu
dio, A huge circus tent has been
erected and several decorated cir
cus wagons are standing around.
It looks real, all right. This whole
picture deals with a ecircus in
which Wially is an animal trainer.
Inside the tent several hundred
extras are jammed intp two sec
tions of the grandstand. They're
drawing $5 a day for being the
audience. And think how many
kids carry water to elephants all
'morning to see the big show! Too
bad some of them can’t be here.
Music Interlude
A score of electricians are tug
ging at huge arc lights to get them
in place around the circular cage
in the center of the tent. Clowns
and other costumed circus per
formers wander around aimlessly.
‘They’ll be doing their stunts in
the background while Beery fights
the tiger.
| An orchestra plays popular
inumbers while Clarence Muse,
colored actor, sings. That's to keep
the crowd from getting restless
while waitine for the scene to bhe
' shot. : L
Jackie Cooper, Wally’'s pal in
the picture and out of it, clambers
up on Lparallel right next to the
cage to get a good view of the
fight. A prop man is sawing two
‘bars out of the cage so Camera
‘man Jimmy How can stick the
lens of his camera through the
opening.
There’s Beery now. Seems a bit
nervous. And no wonder. of
pourse @ ‘trained tiger is being
usedd. And he has been given a
big meal and had his claws clip
ped. But even 80, a 400-pound
tiger is always a dangerous foe.
Studio executives, placing a high
value on the star’s neck—particu
larly since the picture isn't fin
ished yet—wanted to use a stunt
man for the scene. But Wally
insisted on idoing it himself. Didn’t
he use to be an animal trainer?
Protected
Beery finally goes into the cage,
followed by Director Ric hard
Boleslawski snd the tiger’s two
trainers. Wally's wearing a lea
ther aviation jacket and gloves
for protection. Boleslawski shows
him where to stand and then
withdraws from the cage. -
The two trainers huddle in a
corner out of camera range. Just
outside the cage is a police officer
armed 1 ith a high-powered rifle—
ready to kill the tiger if he shows
signs of becoming too ferocious.
“purn 'em over,” shouts the di
rector, “Let the tiger loose.”
The animal comes bounding
through the enclosed runway lead
ing to the big cage. Beery, per
spiration pouring from his brow,
stands his ground waiting for the
ratta.ck.
' The tiger leaps on him and they
fall to the ground. But the big
cat doesn‘t want Rt# play. His
'stomach’s full and he wants to
do is sleep. Finally, however,
Wally manages to pull the tiger
on top of him. The camera stops.
Both trainers come forward. and
slip ropes around the cat's neck
to lead him back to the runway.
But he doesn’t want to go. So
he sits down just like a stubborn
lmule. Finally one man gets be
hind and shoves him forward.
Tries It Again
The fight wasn't very exciting
so Boleslawski decides fto shcot
it again, Once more Wally takes
his place in front of the runway
and “Boley” gives the order to re
leage the tiger. The animal comes
forwand, but with even less pep
‘than before.
As they roll around on the
ground we can hear Beery coax
ing the animal to show a little life.
He even slaps him a couple of
times but to no avail. The cat
just doesn’t want to play.
So they finally give up. No use
keeping on until he gets real mad.
That might be too exciting.
Wally sheds his leather jacket.
“Tt wasn’t bad at all”’ he declares.
“Phe worst part was waiting for
the cat to come out of the run-|
way. I was plenty nervous then
—didn’t know what sort of a mood'
he might be in.
“But after we tangled and I saw
hew as sluggish, T even prodded
him a few times to try to make
him more lively so we'd get bet-
thrilling enough on the screen.
There you’ll see the ' tiger chew
Beery’s arm off. That part, of
course, will be filmed with a dum
my dressed like Beery. Today's
scenes are closé shots just to show
