Talkies Tax Chaney Ingenuity; Keen Mind Discovers Solution

Here is Lon Chaney as he appeared as Professor Echo in “The Unholy Three,” his only talking picture. In this picture he again displayed his ability as a distinctive actor by playing the part of a ventriloquist and using five different voices.

SHIP CARRYING ANDREE’S BONES IS NEAR PORT T\Vo of Three Bodies Are Without Heads; Norway Highly Excited. BY FREDERICK LAUDON United Press Staff Correspondent TROMOSE, Norway, Sept. I—The whaler Brattvaag, bringing back the bodies of Solomon Auguste Andree and his two companions, who were locked in the Arctic ice for thirty-three years, neared Thomsoe today. 1 According to alleged eye-witness reports, the bodies of the three explorers were so nearly skeletons that little, if any, preservation treatment appeared’ necessary. Previous reports said that two of the bodies were without heads and that identification was possible only through notes in the explorers’ diaries. The bodies had been placed in wooden coffins, apparently hewn by the crew while the vessel was in the Arctic, and protected by ice and salt. Tromsoe and all Scandinavia reached a high point of excitement awaiting authentic news of the time of the Brattvaag's arrival and the condition of the explolers’ bodies. First reports had said that they were in an excellent state of preservation. High Hopes Dashed Bu United Press OSLO, Norway, Sept. I.—Hope that the world might learn the details of a secret guarded by the Arctic for thirty-three years appeared to fade today. The Norwegian press reported that expectations of learning more of of Solomon Auguste Andree and his two companions, who perished on an attempted flight to the north pole in a balloon in 1897, had been too optimistic. Dr. Gunnard Horn, leader of the Norwegian scientific expedition, who found the bodies of Andree and liis companions and the relics of their camp on White island, was quoted as saying that “the reports regarding Andree have been greatly exaggerated.” The statements of Captain Jensen of the fishing vessel Ternfnger, who brought the first reports of the discovery of the bodies to Norway, were exaggerated, Horn was quoted es saying. “We did not find the complete bodies, but bones,” Horn told the newspaper Morgenbladet. “Andree’s head was missing. He could be identified only by the diary in his ppeket.” DOGS ROUT AID FOR UNCONSCIOUS WOMAN Guard Ailing Mistress From Doctors, Ambulance Men. Bu United Press BROOKLYN, N. Y„ Sep', I.—For two hours Mrs. Sarah Lacy, 75, lay unconscious in her yard today while two dogs prevented an ambulance surgeon and a police emergency squad from reaching her. The police and ambulance were summoned when neighbors saw Mrs. Lacy drop to the ground, a victim of heat prostration. The dogs, valuable animals that had been entrusted to the aged woman's care for the summer, growled menacingly when any one approached. At length John J. Murphy solved the situation by firing into the air. The dogs fled to cover and Mrs. Lacy was removed to a hospital.

OYSTER SEASON WILL GIVE JOBS TO 15,000 Nearly Every Coastal State to Be Affected by Business Pickup. Bu United Press NEW YORK. Sept. I.—The opening of the oyster season in September will provide employment for ap - proximately 15,000 men. according to an announcement made today. This pickup in employment will not be confined to any one section of the country, but will affect every coastal state except Maine and New Hampshire. Oysters from the second largest item of sea food consumed in the United States, according to the announcement, salmon ranking first. Last year Americans consumed 160,000,000 pounds of oysters. Anew quick-freezing process will enable producers this winter to preserve oysters for marketing next summer, the announcement said. Report to Be Given Final report on the 1930 Indiana air tour will be made at a meeting of. the Indiana Aircraft Trades Association at 7:45 Thursday night at the Chamber of Commerce building.

This I* (he fourth installment In the aerlei of ilx articles revealing the unusual life etorr of the late Lon Chaner. BY DAN THOMAS NEA Se/tice Writer (Copyright, 1030, NEA Service. Inc.) Hollywood, sept. I.— it’s no easy matter for a man with a thousand faces to give each of these faces a voice—voices each as different as the faces themselves. In fact, when your character makeups require such things as false teeth worn over your own, cotton stuffed in the jaws to make them bulge, cheek bones padded with layers of putty and nostrils distended with rubber plugs, speaking of any kind seems almost an impossible task. Such is the problem that Lon Chaney faced with the advent-of the talkies. To ordinary actors, make-ups required only a Tittle paint and powder, it meant nothing; to him it meant everything. BUT Chaney, though he with Charlie Chaplin held out for a Jong time while groping for a solution to the problem, finally met it. “The talkies necessarily will limit my characterizations,” Lon told me one day last spring as we stood watching Lila Lee go through a short scene. “Characters such as I played in ‘The Hunchback of Notre Dame,’ ‘Phantom of the Opera,’ and others will be impossible to do now. as I can’t put anything in my mouth that will interfere with my speaking. “Other characters I will have to forego now will be those that require a- dialect. Speaking with a dialect is one thing I will not do. There is too much chance of doing it wrong and offending some persons. “But I’m not going to forsake my make-up entirely. . I still intend to keep my characterizations as varied as possible. And I will not let the speaking of lines interfere with my action. In my opinion, dialogue is a secondary consideration to action.”

nun HOW well Chaney adapted himself to the new limitations so suddenly placed on his art you can judge lor yourself 4f you have seen him in the recent talkie version of “The Unholy Three.” In this absorbing drama of the circus ventriloquist, the giant and the dwarf who form an odd criminal alliance, Chaney appears as the former and uses five voices. He is first Professor Echo, the ventriloquist, simulating the professor's voice and also that of the dummy on his knee. Ho speaks again when he impersonates the grandmotherly old lady who runs the bird store that is the crooks’ headquarters; also as the parrot and the girl. Replying to skeptics who'doubted that all the five different voices were his own, Chaney went before F. L. Hendrickson, a notary public at Los Angeles, and made an affidavit that they were. But no one around the studios ever questioned it. They knew that Chaney, proud as an artist, would never consent to a fake. tt x tt WHEN the public probably thought that the veteran character actor merely was holding out against an innovation in the progress of motion pictures, Chaney was wrestling with the problem. “The point is, old man,” he once confided, “that I might appear as a crook and a vbice record would be made. Next I might appear as an old man or a character entirely different from the others—but there would be my voice and perhaps the similarity in it could be detected. That’s just what I’ve been afraid of. It isn’t that I have anything against sound pictures.” There was the artist who loved his art. In all his roles he had striven to reach the acme of perfection—and he didn’t want to run the risk of spoiling the illusion. XXX JUST as Chaney sought to hide his real face from the camera, so he sought to hide his real voice from the talkie microphone. “When you hear a person talk you# begin to know him better,” he explained in his quaint way. • “My w'hole career has been devoted to keeping people from knowing me. “Tt has taken me years to build up a sort of mystery surrounding myself, which is part of my stock in trade. And I wouldn’t w'ant to sacrifice it. by talking.” That’s showmanship for you—a man of mystery should not be too well known. It dulls the public curiosity, cuts the box office receipts, and shortens his days of stardom. It all dove-tailed with Chaney’s personal preferences’. He didn’t like to be stared at on the streets and pointed out by the curious. He just wanted to be let alone. xxx THERE \as another mystery, too, that Chaney carefully guarded. It was the mystery of his remarkable make-ups, for they were his stock in trade by which he made his living. Os course, some of the details of how hfe achieved such striking facial and bodily effects are obvious —after being seen. Others may be arrived at by the simple process of deduction; it is easy to surmise that as an armless man he had his arms strapped to his sides. When a picture was actually filmed a lot of his methods became aparent by observation. But he never told how he planned to simulate a particular deformity while he was plotting it out, or devising some remarkable trick like covering his good eye with a glass one inserted under the lid, or designing a sixty-five-pound metallic strait-jacket to twist his body into the form of a hunchback. NEXT: Some of Lon Chaney’s clever makeup tricks. Woman Fatally Hurt MUNCIE, Ind., Sept. I.—Mrs. Van L.

RURAL REGIONS TO FIGHT LOSSES IN CONGRESS Bitter Struggles to Mark Reapportionment of Seats. V Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Sept. I.—Bitter political struggles confront a number of state legislatures as a result of the reapportionment of seats in the house of representatives, a survey revealed today. The reapportionment is to be based on the new census figures. Outcome of the struggles will determine to a large extent the future lineup m the house of prohibition and economic issues, by deciding whether th# greatly increased populations in the big cities shall be recognized in the revision of congressional districts. Legislative battles will be staged between rural districts which have lost population since the last reapportionment twenty years ago, and the big cities which have grown tremendously. Generally, the fight will be between dry, agricultural elements in the rural counties and wet, industrial populations in the cities. Problem iif California California presents a striking instance in this connection. The Pacific coast, state will be entitled to twenty house seats under the reapportionment, an increase of nine. Os the twenty, Los Angeles county, which now has only two congressional districts, will be-entitled to eight. This would give Los Angeles and San Francisco a total of ten out of twenty seats, instead of four out of eleven. In Michigan, which gains three seats, Wayne county, where Detroit is located, will be entitled to seven instead of two full districts and parts of two others. Thus, the rest of the state will lose if Detroit gets its full share. * Chicago Entitled to More Illinois will not gain any seats, but Cook county, where Chicago is located, will be entitled to fifteen instead of ten representatives. For many years Illinois has pi evented Chicago from having its ful. representation by electing two members“at large.” Missouri, Pennsylvania and Minnesota are other states which will lose seats while their big cities may gain. New York will gain two congressmen, but the metropolitan area in and around New York City will be entitled to four more than it now has. Other states facing similar situations are: New Jersey gains two congress-* men, which should be absorbed by Newark and Jersey City. Ohio gains two. but Cleveland, Cincinnati and other cities are entitled to increased representation. Hamilton county, where Cincinnati is located, should get two instead of one. Indianapolis Two Louisiana loses one, but New Orleans is entitled to an additional seat. Wisconsin loses while Milwaukee is entitled to gain one seat. Nebraska loses while Omaha has gained. Kentucky loses one while Lo\iisville has gained 31 per cent in population. Texas gains three, but the gains are represented in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas and Ft. Worth. Indiana loses two in spite of Indianapolis’ 16 per cent gain in population. Georgia loses two while Atlanta has gained more than 33 per cent in population.

DIES AFTER CRASH Murderer Sets Clothes of Victim Ablaze. By United Press PEKIN, Ill., Sept. 1—A state-wide man hunt has been started for the murderer who sprayed acid in the face of Mrs. Tranquita Rinaldo, attacked her and set her clothes afire. She died in a hospital Sunday night after telling Sheriff L. Fleming that he assailant “blew a whistle” before he attacked her. Mrs. Rinaldo’s 12-year-old son found her wandering in the woods near her home with her clothing afire shortly after the man knocked her down, squirted acid on her face and touched a match to her dress.

Aviation AVIATION SPEED KINGS RACE IN CHICAjOJODAT Purse of SIO,OOO Hung Up for Air Classic, Climax of Great Meet. BY SAM KNOTT, United Press Staff Correspondent CURTISS-WRIGHT AIRPORT, CHICAGO, Sept. I.—The running of the Thompson trophy race, in which the fastest airplanes ever built in America are entered, brought the tenth annual national air races near a close today. Eleven of America's most renowned speed pilots were entered in the race, which is for SIO,OOO, the largest purse ever offered for such an event. The distance is 100 miles, around a five-mile closed course. Start of the race was set for 2:30 p. m., central daylight time. The entrants: Frank Hawks, Travelair mystery ship, Wright special motor. • Arthur H. Page, marine officer flying the navy entry, a CurtissHawk with Curtiss engine. James Jimmy Doolittle’s Travelair, special Wright motored plane, simpilar to Hawks’ ship. E. M. Laird, Speedwing plane with Chevolair motor. Lee Schoenhair, Laird specially designed racing plane. Dannie Fowlie, Pabjoy Phantom, a tiny ship which Fowlie has claimed will do more than 200 miles an hour. Never Has Lost Race Ben O. Howard, flying a Gypsy Moth, another tiny plane, snow white, which never has lost a race. Paul T. Adam-, Travelair, Wright motored plane. Earl Smith, Cessna. American Cirrus engined plane. James R. Wedell, Wedell-Williams special with Hispano engine. Everett Williams, in a plane like Wedell’s.

“It will be the greatest race ever held in the air.” Frank Hawks, one of the favorites to win, told the United Press. TJawks’ plane, the Texaco, is the same with which he recently broke Charles A. Lindbergh and Mrs. Lindbergh’s crosscountry record by flying from Los Angeles to New York in a little more than twelve hours. Sees Four Contenders Discissing the race. Hawks said: "There are four ships which I think may have a chance to win—my own. the Laird, Haizlip’s and the navy job. “Haizlip's ship is almost exactly like mine, and it will be largely a question of luck and piloting between the two. The navy job is mighty fast. They claim something like 300 miles for it. “About a 220-mile average, perhaps more, should win. That means about 240 or 250 on the. straightaways. The pylons must be turned sixty times during a hun-dred-mile race and every pylon means seconds off your time.” Entry of the navy plane represents the first attempt the United States has made in several years to regain the land plane speed title, which it held until 1923. The present title-holder is Warrant Officer Bonnot of France, who set a record of 289 miles an hour. Women to Race Another race of interest scheduled today Was the women’s free for all. It was believed that several of the finishers of the two women's crosscountry derbies would enter. About 80,000 persons, the largest crowd for any of the first nine days of the meet, attended the races Sunday. The day was practically devoid of thrills, except for a spectacular landing by Roger Don Rae, parachute jumper, and an amphibian lake “rescue” race. Rae “slipped” his parachute so much that he almost" folded it up completely and he made a free drag from a great height. Persons in the grandstand thought 'his parachute had failed him, but about 100 feet from the ground he brought the chute out of the “slip” and landed safely.

BREAD PRICE PROBE DEMANDED OF U. S.

Alabama Congressman Is Leader of Campaign to Cut Cost. Bu Scripps-Haward "Sevespaper Alliance WASHINGTON. Sept. I.—Four government agencies have been called upon by Representative George Huddleston of Birmingham, Ala., to furnish him with facts on costs of .production in his newly launched campaign to reduce the retail price of bread. Beginning with the department of justice, Huddleston also has demanded investigations by the federal trade commission, the United States tariff commission and the department of labor, to ascertain if there are any illegal combinations in the banking industry which preclude open competition or smack of conspiracy. He requested the labor department to investigate the labor costs in production of baker’s bread. And he is seeking information from the tariff board on the production costs of raw materials. From facts already submitted to him. Huddleston asserts that the production cost of an average onepound loaf of baker’s jjread can not exceed 3 cents, while it is retailed for 9 to 10 cents. This spread of 200 per cent or more he characterizes as exorbitant at any time and particularly so when wheat is selling at low levels and power has been cut by unemployment and economic depression. The statistical division' of the labor department has informed Huddleston that the cost of raw materials in a loaf of army bread is but 2.3 cents. These materials, he states, are of higher grade than those employed in bread sold across the a.verage grocery counter. Labor costs and overhead expenses must be added in commercial plants, but these, he states, should not exceed seven-tenths cent a loaf.

BRIDGE SOON FINISHED Arlington Memorial §pan Will Be Completed This Fall. Bu Science Service WASHINGTON. Sept. 1.-The new Arlington Memorial bridge, one of the world’s finest examples of stone arch spans, probably will be ready for use with temporary approaches on the Virginia end, where much filling must be done, for the 1932 bicentennial celebration of the birth of George Washington. “I expect to have the bridge itself done this summer, by the end of this working season,” Lieutenant-Colonel U. S. Grant,•director of public buildings and parks of the capital, says. “Then we will be able to haul earth from both banks and make our fill on Columbia island and the approach on the Virginia shore. “We hope to have it available for traffic over unsurfaejsd roads, that is, the first temporary covering of the fill, by the end of the 1931 working season.” > railway or automobile.
