C — Larry Newson, negro slaqer on Death’s Row here, doesn t ■ hold any superstition regarding Friday the 13th. On two occasions, Newsome has been sentenced to die in the electric chair for murder, yet each time an appeal to the supreme court saved him. The last time, when preparations had been made for the execution, it was discovered that while the trial judge had sentenced the negro to die on Friday the 13th, he also had specified a time of 40 days in which he could appeal. The time hadn't expired when the; fateful Friday the 13th came. Now I Newsome has a lease on life until in the fall when the supreme court reconvenes, and he can perfect his appeal. o ' Terre Haute.— (U.R) —Federal inspectors have approved five Waco planes used in passenger service at Dresser Field, Terre Haute’s airport. ——oBring your friends and be at corner of sth and Elm streets, Tuesday, 6 p.m„ Aug. 7, large building lot will be sold to highest bidder.

TALKING MOVIES OF BIG BROADWAY SHOWS PLANNED New York, Aug. 2.—(INS) —Broadway shows for the smaller cities and towns of the country, with the original casts is the latest plan of theatrical producers. In the flesh and blood? Hardly. Its to be by the talking mo tion picture and virtually mean the end of the theatrical touring companies. Plans practically completed by A. 11. Woods, the Shuberts, William A. Brady,and Arthur Kammerstein will confine the activities of the stars of the theatrical world to cities like NewYork, Chicago,' Philadelphia, Boston and Detroit but a reproduction of their performances by the "talkies" will be available to cities, large and small, everywhere. The producers mentioned have obtained control of the vocafilm corporation of America with offices and studios in New York, and are expected to begin making mechanical reproductions of their current theatrical successes in about six weeks, using the original cast. The early Woods production of this season, "Jealousy,” with Fay Bainter and Glenn Hunter as its stars is expected to be ohe of the first plays presented, others to follow in lapid order include "Fast Life,” “A Man With Red Hair,” an English play and a production in which Florence Reed will star. Several Shubert musical shows will follow in an effort to build up an extensive program for the smaller cities so that theatrical owners will be induced to install the vocafilm process which is said to cost only about $3,500 and is much cheaper than other similar processes. Plays may be recorded in the theatre in which they are being produced, the time required beiug about two weeks. The Actors’ Equity Association will be a factor in the plans, however. The association recently warned Its members to act cautlous'y in regard to talking film contracts. The association’s attitude was expressed by Frank Gilmore, executive secretary of the association, who said: "The association does not question . that the managers will ask equity for . its ruling on this matter before embarking on any such project. But in

iX’ouikH of Boy Scouts. The troops in the various cities and towns in the i council are allotted two weeks each at-the camp during the summer. The camp is a real Scout camp, lor Scouts and run by Scouts. The proi gram is a real mystery, no one knowI ing what the program for the follow- ; ing day will be until after the meet- | ing of the patrol leaders and camp di 1 rectors the previous evening. One morning, it will be a 4 o’clock call for I a bird hike and perhaps the next |

the meantime equity members are forbidden to make any such recording of their current productions without first consulting equity headquarters.” ANNOUNCE PROGRAM FOR OLD HOME WEEK (covrisi i:i» num mue one> Niblick, directing the cast of 2<»o or more people who will take part.
