‘ALFALFA BILLS LEAD GROWS IN OKLAHOMA VOTE Murray and Buttram to Meet in Runoff on Aug. 12. By t'mted Preit OKLAHOMA CITY, July 31.—W. H. (Alfalfa Bill) Murray, who left the farm years ago to help rame Oklahoma's constitution, had the farmers to thank today for a landslide in his favor in the preliminary primary election. The picturesque politician predicted his majority over other gubernatorial candidates in the total vote tabulation would be so great there would be no need for the scheduled run-off primary two weeks hence. If one candidate obtains a majority of the total votes cast, he automatically receives the nomination. Far Ahead of Buttram The popularity of Murray in practically every section of the state was seen today in complete returns from fifty of Oklahoma's seventyseven counties. Reports from 2.934 precincts out of the state's 3,340 gave Murray 118,329 votes, compared to 63,792 for Frank Buttram, Oklahoma City millionaire oil man. This definitely placed Murray and Buttram in the Democratic runoff primary Aug. 12. Ira S. Hill seemed certain to obtain the Republican nomination for Governor, and will oppose the Democratic nominee in the November elections. The Democratic nomination is considered tantamount to election. A similar, but much more clos'd-' contested race, is being held e the nomination for United States senator on the Democratic ticket. Here again a “man of the common people’’ opposed a wealthy, industrial leader. Gore Holds Margin Former United States Senator Thomas Pryor Gore, blind from childhood, held a slight margin over Charles J. Wrightsman, oil millionaire of Tulsa. On the basis of key returns, it appeared the two would mee, in the runoff primary Aug. 12. Henry S. Johnson, deposed Governor, was running a close third, however, and had an outside chance to step into second place. The Democratic nominee will enter the November elections in opposition to Senator W. B. Pine, Republican incumbent, who is assured of the G. O. P. nomination. Pine also is wealthy.

BEG!* HEBE TODAT DAN RORIMER had been in Hollywood two weeks when he got a letter from an old newspaper friend In New York. ZIDOY YOUNG, telling him to look up a girl named ANNE WINTER, who had come to Hollywood from Tulsa. Okla.. to "crash the movies.'’ Dan doesn't wont to be bothered chaperoning "movie struck” girls, but he gets In touch with Anne Winter, expecting to find the sort of rlrl that Zlggv had described—and Is literally swept ofT his feet bv her charm. They go to dinner, where Dan. at her reauest. tells about himself—how he had given up- newspaper work to write Action. and how one of his stories had been bought bv the movies, a circumstance that led to his signing a contract a* scenario writer for Continental Pictures. Anne Is an e/‘-a—or Is trying to be. for she has wonted fust one day since coming to Hollywood. Shi has had stage experience—ln stock companies, which, Dan tells her. Is the best foundation for an extra to have. Dan is a little dissatlsAed with things at .Continental, and Anne gathers this fact from little things he had said. That same evening they go to the Roosevelt Hotel to dance. SOW GO o*' WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THREE IT was wonderful to dance with someone who followed you as effortlessly and lightly as a flower inclining in the wind: who responded to your every mood as though the two of you had been born to dance together. Dan Rorimer told himself before they had gone once around the crowded flood that It was for girls like Anne Winter that the modem rhythms had been invented. “Happy days are here again—” He had spoken truly; it did get into his blood. He suspected it was in hers too. Music like this did things to you, if you were young and found youth something to enjoy; it awakened slumbering fires within you, brought you to quick, pulsating life. She was just a trifle over average height—not more than an inch at most, Rorimer thought, but it counted a lot. He was tall—six feet in his shoes —and he didn’t like to hold his arms too low when he danced. Not that it mattered tremendously. he reflected. Such things really didn't, viewed from another and maturer perspective; but as long as they contributed to perfection they were not unimportant. It somehow pleased him that several of the musicians were watching them. Swinging past the orchestra stage at the far end of the room, he noted how their eyes followed; and when the leader, catching his own glance, smiled, Dan smiled back. It enhanced even his own estimate of his partner to know that others approved, too. Two pianos now took up the refrain alone, while the other players 'rested and beat time with their feet. Soft cadences, yet somehow a little mad . . . stirring . . . irresistible. Dan began to sing the words He turned his head a little and sang softly into Anne Winter’s ear: “Happv day* are here again! The skies above are clear again. Get us sing a song of cheer again— Happy days are here again—” Anne smiled happily, blended her low, smooth voice with his; “Altogether shoot it now! There’s no one who can doubt It now, go let’s tell the world about tt now— Happy days are here again!” tt a tt DAN stopped. He wanted to listen. Her voice, scarcely above a whisper, but vibrant and alive, did things to him. Thrilled him—a wom-cut word but the right one. .... And this was the girl, he thought with a little contempt for
himself, that he had called up just as a favor to Ziggy Young! “. . cares and tronbles are gone; There’ll be no more from now on. Happy days are here again. The skies aboTe are clear again: , Let m sing a tong of cheer again— Happy days are here again! And now the whole orchestra took up the refrain—brasses, string drums. .. . Fast rhythm; happy, carefree rhythm. Someone near them said, “Wheel’* A score of voices sang the chorus, and cheers tore the air when the song was ended. "And that’s that,” said Rorjfffir, walking off the floor with her. “You’ve been holding out on me. Why didn’t you tell me you sang?” Anne laughed. ‘‘lf you call that singing—” “I’m discovering something new about you every minute. Did you sing on the stage any?” “No.” Their waiter arrived before Rorimer could ask her why. Anne said, “I’d like something with plenty of ice in it.” Dan ordered a salad of avocado and artichoke for her, and an iced drink. . She began to question him about his plans. “You gave me the impression,” she said, “that you were not exactly satisfied with things at Continental Pictures. I call it rather wonderful —there are millions you know, who’d give anything to do what you’re doing; and such a very few who can.” Rorimer said, “Perhaps I’m dissatisfied with myself. I told myself before I came out here that I would not criticise their methods. It’s the popular thing, of course, for disgruntled writers to knock the moving picture producers, but I’ve always thought there must be some brains in the business or it wouldn’t be where it is today. "But ” He stopped. Not so good. Mustn’t complain; she’d think him too temperamental and finicky. “But what?” she prodded. Dan smiled sheepishly and lit a cigyet. “You know Frederick AtwcknJ, of course.” She nodded. “On the screen, that, is.” “Well, can you imagine him playing the part of a hard-boiled police reporter?” “I mink there are lots of others who colud do it better.” “You put it too mildly; anybody could do it better....instead of saying. ‘We need a story lor Frederick Atwood and this will do,’ you’d think they’d go about it differently and say, “So-and-so is just the man fop this story—let’s give it to him.’ But that’s not the way they do it—not in my case, at least.” ANNE said, “But Atwood is a star. They wouldn’t give the him unless it was a good

one. Probably he wouldn’t do It. You ought to find sor comfort in that.” “Perhaps. I don’t pretend to know the first thing about the movie business—but Atwood, the handsome lover ...” , He broke off again, said that Continental did some funny things anyway, and the motion picture business should not be judged by one studio alone. What, he asked, were her own plans? Anne Winter’s hands moved expressively. “Just keep trying, I suppose,” she smiled, and Rorimer felt swift compunction. “And Im kicking,” he said, just as if all of Hollywood ought to be run to suit me. Do you keep in touch with Central Casting Bureau?” “I telephone religiously every day.” “Well, you’ll get your chance; and when you do there won’t be any stopping you.” She smiled at his enthusiasm. “I don’t even know how I photograph. The day I worked I was used in a case scene and 1 was about a block away from the camera.” ' Rorimer laughedi “That’s the way it goes. But you mustn’t feel discouraged. When a girl comes out here all alone and lands even one day of work in her first ten days or so, she’s doing a great deal better than most. Do you know how many extras are registered at Central Casting?” • She shook her head. “Nearly 18,000—and they receive anywhere from seventy-five to 100 applications every day. Mind you, that many applications merely to be registered! I.ord only knows how many they turn down and how many actually are looking for jobs! Paul Collier—he’s a newspaper friend of mine—Collier tells me there’s an r.ctual need for about 840 extras a day. One of the officials told him that in 1929 there was just one woman in all of those

thousands who averaged five days of work a week. I haven’t got a very good head foi arithmetic, but Collier was telling me this Just yesterday atod it stuck by me. "According to some statistics Issued by Central Casting, the average wage paid to an extra is $9.13 a day. Collier spread It out over the number registered and the average daily employment and figured that it would be something like 44 cents a day for each of them.” Rorimer stopped abruptly, realizing tftat his recital was not very heartening to one who had hoped to win her way into pictures by the extra route. “I’m not meaning to discourage you,” he said lamely. “You’re not,” she said, smiling a little crookedly. “One of the officials explained that It was his duty to acquaint me with some of the disappointments I would be sure to encounter. “He made It very clear why they felt it was necessary for me to have enough money to last me for a year.” Dan said, “Well, you’re the kind that’s bound to get ahead anywhere. I wouldn’t have gone mathematical on you if I hadn’t thought that. If you can get a screen test, now, . . . I wish I could cultivate the acquaintance of somebody important and get him to give you one.” Anne told him she had rather he wouldn’t. “But why not?” he asked. “Not that I could promise anything, but I’d like to.” “Because,” she said softly, “I’d like to be able to tell my father that I had done it all myself.” Rorimer said he understood. He held up his water glass, and his eyes sought hers. “The music calls again,” he said. “Do we dance?” “We certainly do.” “Spoken like a true friend! But first a toast; a toast to Anne Winter. May she succeed beyond our wildest dreams; may all Hollywood fall at her feet.” He leaned a little nearer,, smiling into, her dark eyes. “And,” he said, “may she never forget , good old Dan Rorimer. . . . Come on, let’s dance.” r fTo Be Continued) /
