4,000 COMPETE IN TIMES FILM STAR CONTEST Jack Arthur Is Winner of First Prize; Elaborate Solutions Submitted. Today Is pay day for winners in the “Paramount on Parade” contest, which The Indianapolis Times conducted during the showing of this rr.ovie revue at the Circle. More than 4,000 men, women and children, readers of The Times, submitted their identification of the stars, as well as their essays on their favorite movie actor. About fifty had all correctly identified, but several did not inclose the pictures of the stars, as required. Those who did not submit the pictures clipped from The Times automatically eliminated themselves. In several instances the identification was correct, but no essay on favorites was submitted. Jack Arthur Is First Cash winners are as follows: First price, $25, Jack Arthur, 307 North State avenue. Second, $lO, Jean Wilson, 569 Middle Drive, Woodruff Place. Third, $5, Mrs. Pearl Bennett, 813 South Meridian street. Fourth, $5, Agnes M. Watts, 219 West Twenty-ninth street. Fifth, sl, Hugh Trowbridge, 530 West Fifth street, Rushville. Sixth, sl, Mary C. Lough, 2062 Broadway. Seventh, sl. George Norman McClure, 2837 North New Jersey. Eighth, sl, Oakley C. Fidler, 311 Federal building. Ninth. sl, Corinne Humphrey, 1532 Gilbert avenue. The following win a pair of tickets each to the Circle theater: Mrs. Virginia Hart. Creighton apartments, No. 203, Twelfth and Alabama. Fay Basset, 517 North East street, Lebanon, Ind. Mrs. Rose, general delivery. J. A. Myer, 2242 College avenue. Esther E. Jacksoh, 1126 North Beville avenue. Winifred Cassel, 4006 Rookwood avenue. Mrs. Betty Hicks, 1011 East Raymond street. Ruth Breeding, 2034 Broadway. Margaret Thornton, 2039 Mabel street. Margaret R. Cregg, 604 East Eighth street, Rushville. Checks and tickets will be mailed to winners today. Contest Goes Over Big The judges worked for hours the better part of three nights to double and triple check all entries in the most successful identification contest that The Times and the Circle theater ever have conducted. Many contestants went to elaborate lengths to mount and even bind the pictures of the stars. The first winner submitted a beautiful piece of art w'ork and the essay, in the opinion of the judges, was excellent. Mrs. J. Nickum, 1231 West Ray street, apparently worked for hours in mounting the pictures of the stars on a gorgeous home-made fan, but failed correctly to identify all the stars. Lewis C. Duncan. 105 North Linwood avenue, also worked out the fan idea, but one identification was wrong. The same applies to Julia Kleis, R. R. 1, Box 128, Bridgeport, Ind., who mounted the pictures in a leather book ocver. One was wrong. Martini Is Stumbling Block Hundreds went wrong in identifying the picture of Nino Martini, the stumbling block for near everyone who failed. Stanley Smith was another picture that spelled ruin for many. The complete list of the stars submitted for identification follows: 1, Nancy Carroll; 2, Buddy Rogers; 3, Maurice Chevalier; 4, Gary Cooper; 5. Kay Francis; 6. George Bancroft; 7, Fay Wray; 8, Clara Bow; 9, Stanley Smith; 10, Dennis King; 11, Mary Brian; 12, Nino Martini: 13, Zelma O’Neal; 14, Mitzi Green; 15. William Powfell, 16. Lililan Roth; 17, Jean Arthur; 18, Clive Brook; 19, Harry Green; 20, James Hall; 21. Richard Skeets Gallagher; 22, Richard Arlen; 23, Rurth Chatteron; 24, Jack Oakie, and 25, Helen Kane.

Teacher Paid in Ratio to Learning of Pupils EAST EADFCRD, Va.. May 19.—School teachers are paid for whai their pupils learn here in Montgomery county. The pupils are given mental tests at the beginning of the year, and those who have learned most earn their instructors a S2OO bonus. This is one accomplishment of anew form of administration tried out last year by Dr. Minor Wine Thomas of the State Teachers’ college here. The plan also enabled 25 per cent fewer teachers to give 13 per cent more pupils one and a half times as much knowledge as they learned under the old system in use the previous year and practiced largely throughout the country. Under the salary schedule, planned to stimulate teachers’ efforts, they are paid 10 cents a day for each child present. A basic salary of $lO a month for each year of college education also is given. Teachers of one-room schools are allowed $5 a month additional for administrative work. The system also increased the average salary of teachers 15 per cent and decreased slightly the total cost of salaries. The saving was used to buy supplementary material. An average daily attendance increase of 18 per cent also resulted.

FLAIaMTS CAUTIONASKEO Trustees May Pass On Use of Nearby Property. Indiana World war memorial trustees probably will consider a plan for passing on proposed buildings and use of property within 3CO feet of the plaza as result of the dispute over the State Life Insurance Company’s plan for using the old Shortridge site for a miniature golf course and parking lot. Frank H Henley, secretary of the trustees, wrote the works board asking it to prevent “objectionable occupancy” of territory in the vicinity, citing the statute which gives the plazi board jurisdiction within 300 feet. The works board is holding up a request for a permit for driveways until the board meets Tuesday on the golf course project. William L. Elder, city controller and Seventh district memorial trustee, said he will recommend the board ask the building commissioner, plan commission and park board to refer all questionable matters to the board before granting permits in the future. Bids on construction of sidewalks in University park as part of the War Memorial project will be received by memorial trustees Tuesday.
