MODERN

band; He Might Fall Out of
Easy Chair.
By Marian Hays Martin
Difficult as it is to believe more
persons meet with accidents in their
homes than elsewhere. still more dif
ficult it is to believe men are the
chief victims of fatal home acci
dents.
The man of the house does not
contend with many minor accidents,
but he does have the lion's share of
the fatalities.
In an insurance company’s recent
study of mortality among its policy
holders, fatal accidents in the home
were orfe and one-half times as
frequent among men as among
women, in the broad age range of
fifteen to sixty-four years.
This excess among males is the,
more remarkable when it is con- j
sidered that, at this time of life, men
spend a large part of their active ;
hours away from home, in industry,

Women Get Burned
Deaths and accidents due to

According to the report on which
this story is based, it is interesting
to observe that accidental burns,

Fatal burns in the home occur

And, now that
he has made the weight for the
picture, his clothes don’t fit him
any more and he has had to put
out $600 for a new wardrobe.
Biggest laugh In the cinema
town is at the expense of Director
Elliott Nugent.
Like many other megaphoners,
Nugent always turns actor for at
least one scene in each picture. In
his current effort, “Give Me a
Sailor”, it was to do a bit in a
navy day parade supposed to take
place in San Francisco.
But today, Nugent goes about
with a rueful smile.
In the cutting-room, he just had
to snip himself out of ths picture.
J. Weissmuller, a Catalina spy
reports, is paying a diver $50 a
day in an effort to recover a ruby
ring lost by the swimming star
while surf-boarding. It’s like look
ing for a needle in a haystack, but
Weissmuller is determined to get
the ring back if possible.
For two reasons. It cost $2,500
and it was a birthday present from
Lupe Velez.
The youngest of the De Milles
is to carry on the family tradition
in the show business. He is the
baby son just born to the John
Blount De Milles. In midsummer,
his grandfather, Cecil B. De Mille,
will put him before the camera, if
only for a moment, in the picture,
“Union Pacific”.
An M. G. M. promotion stunt
for “Yellow Jack” Is an oddity in
the news. The studio will give
three special showings of the pic
ture. In New York for John R.
Kissenger; in Lexington, Va., for
Dr. Robert Kooke, and in Havana
for John J. Moran, manager of an
oil company.
The three men are former
members of the U. S. medical

It always comes as a surprise

Watch the Cellar Stairs
Children and old persons are al
ways being cautioned to be careful
crossing the street, or to watch their
step here or there—anywhere but
crossing the room, where a rug may
skid and cause a bad fall,
Cellar stairs seem to be a trap into
which sooner or later all must fall—
not that they are necessarily dark
or dangerous, but probably because
one is always in a hurry up or down

Robert Montgomery.
For 11 years Flo O’Neill has
been a script girl at Warners and
has never missed a day on the set.
The other day, she asked Director
Lloyd Bacon for a leave of absence
from “Racket Busters”. “Okay”,
he said, “But why?" The script
clerk answered: "To see my son
graduate at the University of
California.”
In all these years, Hollywood
never knew about the son. It
touched the imagination of the
troupe. Led by Bacon, they are
going together and buying a
graduation present for the boy.

excoriate the movies for the way

Mr. Douglas has no cause for
complaint. The Cosmopolitan pro
duction is an extraordinarily
moving film, beautifully acted by
Fay Bainter, Claude Rains, Bonita
Granville, Jackie Cooper and the
rest. Miss Bainter's performance
is the finest she has given for the
screen. I think Douglas fans will
agree that “White Banners” is a
better picture than “Green Lights”,
which cleaned up at the box office.
