Joe Has High Hopes for New Year; Ho Montague to Stay} in Hollywood Is One
i
By JOE WILLIAMS ‘ Times Special. Writer BW YORK, Dec. 30.—In keeping with our optimistic nature we are looking forward to the New : Year with : hopes. and keen anticipation. We hope. newspapers will quit printing journalistic garbage about Tommy Manville's love life; that Mysterious Montague will stay. in Hollywood where Bing Crosby ‘and other artists appreciate his reCe 2 ose strained” Qignity; that : Babe . Ruth an =. will stop. his growling ‘about: being: ~out of baseball"... ; That P. K. Wrigley will cease xing 10 tell Charley Gfimm, ‘Gab- * by Hartnett, Tony Lazzeri and the Ritz Brothers how to manage the : Cubs; that every time Ralph Flanagan gets caught in a shower it | i will not constitute a new world’s record. That piractical governments fighting peace wars will take off their bloody whiskers and admit the only difference between them and the Al Capones of the underworld is that their hoodlums wear medals; that hockey promoters will get hep to the fact it is. possible to play the game without theatrical fist Shits; that John Barrymore and Elaine Barrie sudSenly Wil become caiuéra shy. » That the baseball eagues will learn the y interest the customers have in the ball—dead or alive— is the long hits it produces; . that publicity conscious merchants ‘and’ athletic clubs adopt a more skilful means of grabbing free space than presenting silver-plated wash tubs and gold-plated goboons to leading football players. . . . We also hope that in 1938 Eddie Cantor will stop. Sccusing other comics of his jokes, most of * which are so aged they walked with a cane back in Gen.
