Flower petal shades for the many lights, in spring colors, many of them glorified by opalescent diffusers, will be usd. The entrance wiH take on the appearance of a vine-covered pergola, with white lattice work hung with wistaAa, glowing with varicolored lanterns. The gleaming statue of the goddess of transportation shining with small colored lights will point the way to the show ring of motor car beauties.

Orman, show manager, is gratified with the outlook.

TITTLE RAILROADS FIGHT TO ESCAPE RECAPTURE PLAN Declare Big Systems Escape Burden of Profit Division Clause. Tiincti n'athinfilon Iturrnu. 1. ?2.1 Ye tr Ynrk Arrniir ■WASHINGTON. Jan. 29.—The little American railroads want to be relieved of the burden of the “recapture clause” of the Transportation Act. Hearings are being held before the Senate interstate commerce committee on a bill granting them that relief, introduced by Senator Pittman of Nevada. The “recapture clause” provides that roads earning more than a fair return must divide earnings equally with the Government, the proceeds to be put into a fund to be loaned to weaker roads. B. INI. Robinson, president of the American Short Line Railroad Association. testified that so far the smaller roads arc bearing the entire burden of the clause. They have paid about $6,500,000 to the Government, he said, and from $100,000,000 to $130,000,000 is still due from the larger roads. This is because the larger roads are still disputing with the Government the basis on which their earnings are to be computed. Robinson also testified the clause could do the railroads no good, because they can now borrow money from private sources more cheaply than from the Government. Pittman’s bill provides that roads less than 20 miles long and whose gross earnings are less than SIO,OOO a mile, shall be relieved and have returned to them the money they have paid.

NOTED NOSE OF SCREEN UNSCATHED Rit I nitiit PrruK HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Jan. 29. Noses can be overhauled by ladies of society or gentlemen of the boxfighting business when whim or necessity demands, but in motion pictures the public wants its noses straight, both as to outline and sincerity. This statement was made today on the authority of Mae Murray of Broadway and Hollywood, who was recently embarrassed by an incident involving a New York society matron and the famed Murray nose. Miss Murray, now the Princess Mdivani, following her recent marriage to a Georgian nobleman, has just returned to Hollywood from Paris where she has been resting after completing “The Merry Widow” and “Valencia” here. Incorrect News Report Her return to studioland was preceded by an erroneous news dispatch from Cincinnati to the effect that she had been in the hands of a famous surgeou there for an operation on her onse. The dispatch surprised her friends and, incidentally, Miss Murray herself. The Murray nose proved on arrival here to be the same, genuine article that had left some months ago, except for a slight tilt in the direction of one Mrs, Margaret Morgentime of Cen- | tral Park West, New York. Investigation developed that Mrs. I Mergentime had gone to Cincinnati 1 for a nose operation. Her husband | had been unable to accompany her. J Following the event Airs. Mergentime, delighted with results, wired her waiting spouse to this effect: “Operation a success. Will sign contract in Hollywood. (Signed) Mae Murray.” The text of the wire leaked out before it was delivered, and about the : time Air. Alergentime of Central | Park West was reading the telegram : itself. Hollywood was reading news | dispatches to the effect that Mae j Murray of picture fame, was returning with another nose.

It’s a Perfect Nose Hollywood knows the Murray nose, and demanded that and none other. It has been pronounced by Paul Helleu, Rolf Armstrong, and Alfred Cheney Johnston as the most perfect feature on th eAmerican stage or Sfcreen. Now that it has been returned safely, intact and in original form, Mrs. Margaret Alergentime of Central Park West, New York, is still explaining to Princess Mdivani of San Vincente Blvd., Brentwood. Cal., that she did not intend to take In vain the most famous nose in pictures, but was merely assuring friend husband hat she now had a proboscis comparable architecturally with the petite feature of Alae of the movies. Aliss Murray has broken her contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer as a result of disagreement over suitable story material for the blonde star, and her next production may be made under the banner of a European concern. She wants to do “L’Aglon,” made famous by Bernhardt. The first public library was founded in Athens, Greece, in 27 B. C.

VONNEGUT SAYS CITY LUCKY ON SHORTRiDGE COST Asserts $1,250,000 Not Too Much in Spite of Promise. u

Even though the new Shortridge High School will cost about $250,000 more than the school hoard promised when they discarded the original plans ten months ago and asserted that new plans would call for a price not exceeding $1,000,000, the city may bo fortunate that the figure is not more. This statement was made by Theodore F. Vonnegut, board president, in answer to the disclosure Friday by The Times that bids now being considered by the tax hoard will exceed by one-fourth the promised cost, not Including the $42,000 wasted for the original plans. The first set of plans set the figure at $1,200,000 as a maximum. and the building would have cost $1,500,000, according to Charles R. Yoke, board member. “High schools with only 1,500 capacity are costing other cities between $1,600,000 and $2,000,000,” Vonnegut said. “The new Shortridge will have 2,500 capacity at a figure considerably less than that minimum.” Urgent necessity’ for the building here prompted Yoke and Fred Bate? Johnson, minority hold-over members since Jan. 1. 1926, to approve the new plans. Yoke said. The contract with purchaser of the old Shortridge provide the building must be vacated by Jan. 1, 1929. “The project has suffered Innumerable delays from as far back as 1912,” Yoke said, “and especially since the purchase of the site in 1920 for $82,000. The new building must" be started almost—regardless of cost.
