You don’t have to change the license plates on the cars and the extras can wear the clothes everybody wears in southern California. Os course, there's really no polar palace on Hollywood boulevard, but this is a matter of dramatic license. _ We can watch the scene now. The lights are on and Joan, Jimmie and Lew are standing disconsolately on a corner. Their suitcases are beside them. Director Renhold Sehunzel (he used to be an actor in Germany and is said to mangle more English than Michael Curtis), lifts his hand. They are going to rehearse. Jimmie Stewart picks up a suitcase, Joan Crawford a light bag. Lew Ayres reached down for two more suitcases. He yanks, then almost falls on his face.

WARN AGAINST STOMACHACHE Insurance Company Advises Immediate Calling Os Physician New York, N. Y., Dec. 3 — It may be only a stomach ache, but if you want to he safe — Call a doctor, Remain quiet and apply an Ice bag to the abdomen, Do not take a laxative, food, or j medicine. The observance of this simple three-point rule will save many of the 18.000 lives lost in the United States every year from appendicitis, according to Dr. Donald B. Armstrong, third vice-president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company. The importance of the rule, which, Dr. Armstrong points out, should be followed in every case of abdominal pain, is being brought home to millions of American families as part of a nation-1 wide campaign against appendicitis being participated in by the insurance company. The rule. Dr. Armstrong says, Is based on sound medical experience, reinforced by a recent study made by health authorities. He points out that medical science has prov- j ed that self-treatment is respon- j sible for a large number of the appendicitis deaths, and that most of these could be prevented by calling a doctor and receiving surgical care when needed. The appendicitis survey shows that in a group of appendicitis patients, among those who received no laxative, only one died out of 64. When one laxative was taken the deaths were one out of 18. | while among those who received more than one dose, one death occurred in 11 patients. The study also revealed that When hospitalization was delayed 1 from two to three days after an I appendicitis attack, the death toll was three times as great as among those patients who were admitted to a hospital within the first 24 hours. Moved by the result of the study to intensify its long standing effort to combat appendicitis, the insurance company planned its current effort to spread information, through which it hopes many lives
