Each has been married previously.

HOLLYWOOD Filmland chuckled
when Joel McCrca and Johnny Weis3
muller jumped into the ocean with
fishing llne3 in their teeth and ac
tually succeeded in
hooking a barra

Wilcoxon, the Eng
lish star, tops them
easily. Out on his

spear and dived
overboard
He gaffed three sheeps-
heads.
As a matter of fact, Wilcoxon is
one of Hollywood's strongest swim
mers. He was born in Dominica and
lived in Barbados and Jamaica until
the age of 16. He is the only person
who has been able to dive completely
under the keel of Cecil B. De Mille's
yacht.
There ha3 been a marked decrease
of applicants for the one Hollywood
actor's role in "China Roars." And
no wonder. The Columbia troupe will
sail up the pirate-infested Yang-tse
river and will spend many months
on the Gobi desert and in iuhospit
able Mongolian territory. But worst
of all are the multiple vaccines that
the studio will insist on administer
ing. Typhiod, smallpox and diph
theria are routine and will be given

to all the troupe before it leaves here.
In China, will come the real grief.
Some of the diseases that may be en
countered are Asiatic cholera, kalaaza
(dum dum fever), malta fever, fram
besia tropica (yaws), pappataci fever
and two such jaw breakers as trippan
somiosis and tsutsuganushi.
Director Clyde Elliott, one actor
and about 40 Hollywood technicianr
will face this alphabetical nightmare.
Being a well-known San Diego
banker, Joseph Sefton doesn't often
have to bask in the reflected glory of
his wife, Minna Gombell. But, oc
casionally, even he
becomes Just a
Hollywood hus
band. The other night,
for instance, Joel
and Minna went
to dine with Do
lores Barrymore.
They took some
presents for the
kids and made a
big hit.
Minna Gombell
So much so that young John, Jr.
said his prayers this way:
"God bles3 mamma and papa and
sister and Miss Gombell and that
nice man Mr. Gombell."
Very funny about the nevsreel
men and the Union Pacific streamline
train. The boys ail gathered to shoot
the start of the cros3-country dash of
this modern miracle of transportation
It was dark, so they provided them
selves with one-minute flares. The
idea being to light them just 30 sec
oncls before the train pulled out.
But when the flares were lit, there
was a slight delay. You'll never hear
them, but the sound tracks on the
film are hilarious a wild chorus of
"Start that train! For crying out
loud, get going!"
The metal monster slithered away
in the nick of time the flares dying
away for a natural fadeout.
Enick-Knacks
A certain stage and screen star ac
tor, with a reputation for being a bad
boy, just got himself in bad again by
agreeing to do a vaudeville act with a
well-known actress-dancer and then
leaving her in the lurch at the last
minute. . . . You'd die to hear about
the rib that Luke Barnett pulled on
Mark Kelly, beligerent sports editor,
when the Los Angeles scribes went
east to cover the Pittsburgh-Univer
sity of Southern California football
game. . . . Wallie Beery will take
little Carol Ann to San Antonio, Tex.,
on a location trip for "West Point on
the Air," but she'll have to make the
trip on the train with her nurse. Wal
lie backed out on letting her ride in
his plane.
VISITORS IN THE CITY
Mr. and Mrs. E. Vernon Lewis of
Los Angeles, wereguests here Sun
day at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Mllford B. Bates, being en route from
their home on a vacation trip to the
east and south. Mr. Lewis is the
city passenger agent of the Union
Pacific at Los Angeles and they were
formerly neighbors of the Bates fam
ily in Los Angeles. They departed
last night for Chicago and will then
go on to the east coast.
v.
Mr. and Mrs. Carl Nickles, v.el
known residents of the Weeping Wa
ter community were honored on Sun
day, October 28th when a large num
ber of the relatives, friends an
neighbors came in to assist them
the observance of their twenty-fifth
wedding anniversary.
There were some two hundred of
the friends present and who came
from Mynard, Murray, Union, Weep
ing Water and Eagle as well as th
immediate neighbors of this estim
able couple, all coming with wel
filled baskets and which provided the
means of a fine picnic dinner served
at the noon hour.
The guest3 were seated at a table
thirty-six feet long and which was
laden with all of the good things to
tempt the appetite of the guest
Beautiful bouquets of red and ye
low fall flowers were used in the
decorative plan of the table and add
ed greatly to its charm.
Mr. and Mrs. Nickles were mar
ried at Dunnigan, Missouri, on Octo
ber 31, 1909, coming to Murray on
February 12, 1912 and have since
made their home here where they
have the esteem and affection of
rery large circle of warm friends.
In honor of the occasion Mr. and
Mrs. Nickles were presented with
large number of handsome gifts
remembrances of the old time friends
and neighbors.
The anniversary was also the oc
casion of the eighteenth birthday of
their son, Arthur and who shared in
the festivities of the day, the young
man having a handsome angel food
:ake in pink and blue to remind hi
)f the very happy event.
Mr. and Mrs. Nickles are the par
ents of three sons, Cecil, who
married and resides at Weeping Wa
ter and Arthur and Frank who re
side at home.
The many friends on leaving ex
tended their best wishes to Mr. an
Mrs. Nickles for many more such
happy anniversaries in the future
FUTURE OF PUBLIC WORKS
Yv'ashington. Looking into a fu
ture as yet little better than nebul
ous, the public works administration
is considering the prospects of ex
panding in such fields as providing
electrification for rural districts an
eliminating railway grade crossings
Both of these, officials say, present
many difficulties, not the least ol
which is the congressional hurdle
Whether mere funds will be provided
for public works of any type is en
tircly up to congress. Both rural
electrification and grade crossing
elimination were eligible for publi
works financing from the $3,700,
000,000 original fund. The question
of adequate security was the chief
stumbling block.
Huge dams that will provide
means of generating electricity are
being financed by PWA in several
sections of the nation and their pow
er must oe used In some manner
Consequently officials are consider
ing how far they might go in expend
ing transmission lines Into rural
areas where the kerosene lamp has
prevailed for generations.
BRITISH-RUSSIAN AGREEMENT
Moscow. The long standing con
troversy between a group of British
investors and the Russian govern
ment over the rich Lena goldfields
was adjusted in an agreement signed
here. The settlement was reached by
the Soviets' chief concession commit
tee and Arthur Marshall, represent
ing Lena Goldfields, ltd. Th; Tass
(Russian) news agency reported that
all disputed questions had been reg
ulated" in negotiations which had
been under way three weeks. The
announcement was regarded as vital
ly important by British business in
terests. It wa3 believed the settle
ment would stimulate the revival of
Anglo-Russian trade. Great Britain
already has displaced Germany a
the largest exporter to Russia.
KIN OF HOPKINS LOSES
Tacoma, Wash. The prediction
of Federal Relief Administrator Hop
kins that his brother, Dr. L. A. Hop
kins, republican candidate for Pierce
county coroner, would te defeated,
appeared to be on the way to fulfill
ment. Dr. Hopkins was trailing his
democratic opponent, Dr. T. II. Long

League Until Country Vote In ;

Proposed amendments: 609 pre
cincts of 2,029, for prohibition re
peal 78,460; against repeal 55,997.
640 precincts: For one house leg
islature 77,119; against one house
legislature 52100.
613 precincts: For parl-mutuel
betting 62,424; against pari-mutuel
betting 49,795.
Three amendments to the state
constitution early Wednesday ap
peared to be carrying with repeal of
state prohibitory laws romping along
with a lead of 23,000 votes.
The proposal for a one house leg
islature was doing nearly as well
with about a fifth of the state's 2,029
precincts counted, and the amend
ment to permit parti-mutuel betting
on horse races had an increasing
margin.
R. P. Hutton, superintendent of
the Nebraska Anti-Saloon league
early Wednesday morning refused to
concede a victory to the repeal forces.
He said that he understood most of
the precincts reporting early were
in cities and that the country terri
tory was running dry. "We're not
ready to concede," he declared. Ve
wouldn't encourage the wets that
much."
LOW PSICE PAID FOR VOTE

said they had found evidence of only

investigation and better known as a

SAYS CLOTHING ESSENTIAL
Eoston. Regardless of the conten
tions of nudist cults, "going native"
is far from a pleasant condition, ac
cording to Dr. IL Veazie Markham.
Reporting from his station at Donti,
West Africa, Dr. Markham has just
informed the American board of com
missioners for foreign missions that
luck of clothing is a principal cause
of sickness in that region. "More
sickness and death come3 from pneu
monia and disease of the chest," he
said, "than from any other illness
except malaria. A child without a
cold is an object of curiosity. The
native people who are not Christians
do not know how to build proper
houses. The Christians are cleaner,
healthier, better clothed and hous
ed." Dr. Markham reported visiting a
large area in which the population
had been wiped out by the deadly
tsetse fly.

HUNGARY PREMIER GUARDED
Vienna. Premier Julius Goem
boes of Hungary was guarded like a
visiting king when he arrived here
en route from Budapest to Rome for
an important conference with Pre
mier Mussolini. Determined to pre
vent a repetition of the Dollfuss as
sassination and the murder of King
Alexander at Marsielle, thousands of
Austrian soldiers and police sur
rounded the railroad station, which
resembled a fortress.
Photographers and newsmen were
forced to keep their distance as if
they had been potential assassins
Chancelor Kurt Schuschnigg and
Prince Ernst von Starhemburg, vice
chancellor, greeted Goemboes, along
writh other cabinet members, and
later held separate private confer
ences with the visiting premier.
Goemboes a soldier himself, seemed
dumfounded at the amazing meas
ures taken to guard him. After his
arrival the dictator placed a wreath
on the tomb of fallen Austrian
heroes and then went to lunch with
the chancellor and vice chancellor
Later he was to leave for Italy, where
he will talk trade and treaties with
the Italian premier.
