DOVE OF PEACE RIDES AGAIN ON BAGKOFCAMEL LoVe Feast Follows Bitter Dry League Clashes; Huge Sums Given. Bn United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—Peace—outward at least—settled over the Anti-Saloon League today, as Ernest H. Cherrington prepared to spend' the first $620,000 of a hoped-for $lO,000,000 to educate the nation in sobriety. The drama of generosity replaced that of bitterness a ta league banquet last night. General Superintendent F. Scoft Mcßride, who had defeated Cherrington in the fight for league dominance, threw his arms about the Ohioan and hailed him as “the new leader.” Aged Bishop Thomas W. Nicholson of Detroit was so moved that he arose and, using the ordination ceremony of the Methodist Church' ordained Cherrington to carry on his campaign as head of the league’s education and publicity department. Cherrington said merely that he wanted $10,000,000 for his work, but this was enough to bring Sebastian S. Kresge of Detroit to his feet with a pledge of $500,000 v and an offer to try to get Henry Ford to contribute. Kresge said Ford was compelled to produce his new model car because prohibition had made people so prosperous they demanded finer machines. Cheers followed, and Republican Upshaw of Georgia led in mass singing of “Praise God From Whom All Blessing Flow.” Other large pledges were made by William F. Cochran of Baltimore, $50,000; an anonymous donor, represented by the Rev. Howard Hyde Russell, founder of the league, $60,000; F. M. Jackson, of Birmingham, Ala., $5,000; and Daniel C. Roper, $5,000, former internal revenue commissioner.

BEAUTIES STRIVING FOR WAMPAS HONORS " " ' - .... f Movieland Prepares to Make Annual Selection of Its Baby Stars

K\ W , :i^ . ■

By XK i. Service HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Dec. 9. Movie land is about to greet anew crowd of Wampas baby stars. The thirteen pptential celebrities will be chose.n by the Wampas, Hollywood organization of motion picture publicity men, at its meeting, Dec. 27. Every year the Wampas selects the thirteen girls who show the most promise of becoming prominent during the coming twelve months. Ruth Taylor, the practically unknown blonde who was picked to play Lorelei in “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” is sure to be one of the thirteen. That one picture has established her position in cinemaland. Carves Niche for Self Sue Carol is another who in nine months time has carved a niche for herself in movieland. A wealthy Chicago society girl, she came out here last summer on a vacation. Just for fun she played a bit in a film. Douglas Mac Lean saw it and persuaded her to sign a long-term contract. She played as his leading lady in “Soft Cushions,” did one nr- two other big features and is now playing the feminine lead in “Skyscraper” for Cecil B. DeMille. Sally Eilers is still practically unknown. But within the next two months she will be rated with the biggest of the young stars. Sally was chosen from the extra ranks by Mack Sennett for the leading role in "The Goodbye Kiss,” a big special. Backed by DeMille Lina Basquette has just been chosen to play the title role in “The Godless Girl,” Cecil B. DeMllle’s -next personally directed film. That assures her of success. Lupe Velez* who came up here from Mexico City a short time ago, has literally taken Hollywood by storm. She was Douglas Fairbanks’ leading lady in his last picture, “The Gaucho,” and it is reported that she will play with him in his next film. Gwen Lee has been in pictures slightly more than two years, but it’s only during the hist six months that she has started "to gain recognition. She has played several big roles on the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer lot recently and executives there consider her as one of their future “big names.” Alice Is Sure Fire Alice White is another sure fire comer. She is much the same type as Clara Bow, who was chosen wee years ago and more than made good. So will Alice. Audrey Ferriss is the youngest of the candidates, being only 17. But she has played some important j ivenile roles on the Warner Brothers lot and aside from screening beautifully, she shows acting ability. Dorothj* Gulliver is the outstanding prospect from the Universal lot. She has nearly two years of training behind her and just recently came

into the “big money” as Reginald Denny’s leading lady. Denny liked her Work so well, he wants her again. Molly’s Sister Stars Molly O’Day’s sister, Sa’ly O’Neil, was a 1926 baby star who proved that she merited the selection. Many say that Molly is even a better actress than Sally. 'June Collyer is anew “find” of William Fox’s the man responsible for Janet Gaynor’s rapid ascension in the cinema ranks. Fox believes he can do the £ame with Miss Collyer. Hence her selection as a baby star. —' Caryl Lincoln also is ore of the Fox troop, having just been , signed to a long term contract by that company. In the two months she has been at Fox she has played two ingenue leads, both of which have drawn much favorable comment. She’s going ahead. Jeanette Loss is one of Hollywood’s best and she’s already starting to do big, things. She has played several important roles in big productions in the last six months. Indiana Independent Petroleum Marketers met today at the Severin with D. W. Cross, president, in charge. Samuel Hurd is secretary. About 200 members, jobbers and dealers attended. „
