put in to double for Beck. In the midst of the firing, he suddenly grasped his neck from which the blood spurted. A bullet, presumably ricocheting from the water, had nicked him under the chin and gone on to bury itself in the mast of the junk. An inch difference and it would have shattered the stuntman’s jaw or cut his Jugular vein. Tony Martin is staying away from big-time bridge games. The other night, at the home of a Hollywood agent, he w<s asked to sit in, but declined on account of the high stakes. Instead, he offered to take 10 per cent of Producer Sol Wurtzel’s game. At one time Wurtzel was $12,0<" loser and Martin could scarcely breathe. Wurtzel came back, though, and finished only S6OO in the hole. The lesson cost Martin only S6O which he was glad to pay. After an 11-day illness, Miriam Hopkins finally completed “Women Have a Way" and flew out of here accompanied by her director-bride-groom, Anatole Litvak, and by a nurse. Though the star had been so eager to get away, departure was a wrench, because it meant her first separation from her adopted youngster, Michael. The boy also is recuperating from an illness and will have to follow later. In the Trocadero the other night. John Beal sketched a portrait of Joan Crawford on the tablecloth.

After occupying Wutsin the Jap-I anese advance guard moved on to-1 ward Nanking along the ShanghaiNanking rail line. The remainder •of the distance between Wutsin and Nanking consisted chiefly of I the fruitful Kiangsu plain which is difficult to defend. The Japanese were in possession of two excellent arteries, the Shanghai-Nanking railroad and the Nanking-Hangchow highway from Ihing. The advancing forces were expected shortly to open the Kiangyin boom which would enable the Japanese transports and warships to proceed up the Yangtse river. Chinese reports said that Japanese planes had bombed a passenger train at Hsuancheng, in Anhwei province, killing at least 40 persons and wounding more than 100. Meanwhile, the Japanese strengthened their hold on Shanghai, including the international settlement and the French concession. They took over control of all communication facilities but moved cautiously in the face of United States and British representations in assuming control of the Chinese customs. A Japanese embassy spokesman said that the telegraph offices were taken over merely to prevent the removal and destruction of j equipment by Chinese employes. • He »denied that the interior had been cut off from all communications but the Shanghai telegraph ■ office earlier had refused all mes- j sages addressed to points in • Nanking.

Methodists Unite To Save Historic Church > . i ]|j l ” _ __ Roberts Park Methodist Episcopal Church, in the heart of the city of Indianapolis, is to be saved from foreclosure because of its SIIO,OOO. debt. This debt was incurred by a building program Just before the economic failure of the past ten years. The Indiana Conference Committee of the Methodist church has accepted for Methodism outside the Indianapolis district an amount equal to almost one third of the Indebtedness ($40,000,001. The Indianapolis district outside of Roberts Park Church Is attempting to raise $30,000.00. The church Itself has accepted a goal of $40,000.00. To date, the church has secured over fifty percent of its amount. Over half of the Indianapolis district goal is provided for. The district superintendents of the North and Northwest Indiana Conforences of the Methodist Episcopal church are unanimous in setting aside a "Save the Sanctuary Day” for Roberts Park. A special offering will be taken this day to be applied on Roberts Park debt. I December sth is the day set aside for the Indiana conference to reach I ; its goal. Roberts Park church has within five squares of its doors over 3,000 • young men and women who Irnve located in Indianapolis to get an education or to get a start in life. This church ministers to hundreds of these youth. It is the opinion of state leaders of the Methodist church that Roberts Park is soon to become a state church. It has already • been voted as the "Indiana Conference Church.” and the sessions of the . ■lndiana conference will be held there indefinitely.
