Since that switch of directors, Al Jolson is his old self again. He’s enthusiastic about his coming picture and plans to take the first scenes next Wednesday. This star, by the way, recently has turned down four radio otfers calling for a salary that would make your eyes blink. . . . The steadiest backgammon feud in cinemaland these days is between Harpo Marx and Samuel Goldwyn. . . . Two more pictures and Ronald Colman’s contract is up. The first is “Cynara” and the second may be that U-boat story after all. Jules Furthman has been borrowed from Fox to try to whip it into shape. Goldwyn is keen on this one because it offers a swell role to introduce the much-publicized Anna Sten. . . . Author Jim Tully never wears a tie. The other day Jack Dempsey and a friend tried to put one on him, but the net result was two more buttons torn off the Tully shirt. . .. With the script of his picture finally okayed, Eddie Cantor has ducked out of town to rest until the camera starts to grind. . . .

"Earhart Hop” Rythmic Tribute to Lady Ltndy ♦ * ♦ * * * Dancers Go Air-Minded as Terpsichorean Allegory of Famous Ocean Flight Threatens to Zoom to Nation-wide Popularity

B f L s™* —/ i x—< Contact Take- off Wuntg Dip t!s> If you decide to learn the latest dance and join the merry throng that is doing the "Earhart Hop," the chances are that when you become competent in the movements of the dance you’ll be able to go right out and stunt in an airplane. For the new ballroom craze, created as a rythmic tribute to Amelia Earhart's trans-Atlantic achievement, teaches all the tricks of aviation from the take-off to the happy landing. “Contact" is the position taken by the dancers at the beginning of the “Earhart Hop." From there you go into the “Take off" and thence into a nice climb for altitude. Then, when you’re up in the blue, with arms and legs doing duty for wings and propeller, you go through all the convolutions of an airplane—left banks, barrel rolls, wing dips, zooms and spirals, until the music reaches the grand finale and you zoom down in a power dive to a perfect three-point landing. Above are some of the positions in the dance. Try it over, for if you are a dancer you won’t be io style if you can’t do what debbies and dowagers, collegians and grandpas, gigolos and sugar daddies are doing—the "Earhart Hop."

Are you a well - informed person? Every day this newspaper is filled with news. And our experience is that the news which interests you most is the news which affects you most. When one of your friends has participated in a minor accident, you are more interested in that than in a major accident in another city. / Advertising, too, is news of the first importance.
