Made Movies Wait on Her

Betty Field ‘Still Shares Time With Broadway.

~ NEW YORK, March 21 (U. P.).— With thousands of persons clamor-

ing to get into the movies, Betty|

Field proves to be the exception for she kept the movies waiting for five years before she embarked for Holood. :

yw! . Even then she went with the specific understanding she would play a part in the screen version of “What a Life” which she played during the winter on the Broadway stage. ; j ‘Talent scouts spotted Miss Ficld when she was in her final semester at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts here. She consented to a movie test which Boris Kaplan, chief scout for Paramount, supervised. Simultaneously she let it be known that she intended to take her time about going westward and refused: to have railroad tickets pushed into her hand. - By the time Betty was graduated, a small part in the show, “Page Miss Glory,” was available for her. She took it eagerly, although it paid but a fraction of the money she would. have received in the movies. During the last four years Miss ‘Field has gone from show to show, each part increasing in importance. She was in a road company of “Boy eets Girl” when she made her first lp to Los Angeles. While there she . #isited studios and casually studied -3he movies and what they had to offer her career. - Under her contract, Betty says she is to spend six months in Hollywood and the rest of the year on Broadway.

of the big city Baedakers: Manhattan's oldest thoroughfare was called Great Dock St. is now named Pearl St. and is called Poil St. Three hundred years ago, New York consisted of the following: One broken-down fort, one brick hotel, two windmills, 35 beer taverns and 700 customers. Only 400 of Manhattan’s Chinese live in Chinatown which has a population of 18,000. New York Arithmetic: If Peter Minuit were to ride an elevator today to the top of the Chrysler Building (1046 feet high), he would be more than 350 years old. And if 207.65 New Yorkers die today, 16 per cent of them will die of senility, which isn’t a bad record, is it? Something to Remember: ‘They say the Bowery is the only place in town where it is impossible to find a cigaret butt on the pavement— the Bowery denizens find it first. Transportation: It is possible to travel «600 miles a day in New York for a nickel, by riding continuously in the subway. . A man getting on a train at the age of 21, and getting off at the age of 70, can ride 10,731,000 miles on a nickel- If we were putting out a guide book, we’d ‘then compute that for 1 cent, 4 New Yorker could ride 2,146,200 miles in the course of his natural life. And that, Fair visitors will have to admit, is the lowest transportation cost in the world. 2 o #2

FRY this some time when you're around here: Only one New Yorker out of every 18,642 can say where 350 Fifth Ave. or 825 Eighth Ave. are. All right, you tell him.

‘The first is the Empire State Build(ing,

the second Madison Square Garden. Back.in the 17th century, Broadway was called the Great Highway. Back in the 20th century, a Broadway columnist plagarized half and dubbed it The Great White Way. New York has two kinds of pe-

That's because he doesn’t go up there too often these days. 8 2 8 : OU would never think that in sophisticated ' New York, 2700 cows are kept for pasturing—some fairly near the Fair Grounds—and in toughs’ parlance, there are 18,000 bulls in the Police Department, waiting to ram an aggressor.

New York, at a recent census, had some 14,000 taxicabs patiently waiting for passengers. But on rainy nights there is only one and that one usually is taken. Ancient Fact About New York: Morning newspapers may be bought at night, afternoon papers appear on the newsstands in the morning, and Sunday papers are available on Friday. The subway toierates passengers who carry large . bundles, but for some inexplicable reason, doesn’t stand for folk who cart harpsichords, properly encased, into the rains. 8 = =»

ARDEST thing to find in New York: A place to park. More paradox: The Second Ave. “L” runs over First Ave. and the Third Ave. “L” runs over the Bowery. How do you like that? : When the Fair opens, and the millions of visitors pour in, greater statisticians than I have declared that daily 15,634 transients will declare: “New York is a great place to visit, but I would not live here if you gave me the place!” No player ever hit a fair ball over the wall at Yankee Stadium. Any bets that we're right? Ice cream is a New York invention. It was discovered in the 1800's when some sweet stuff froze over and the man who tasted it (his name was Hall) said it was delicious. The hardest thing to find on the Staten Island Ferry is a newspaper. We don’t know why. Most logical place to look for a saiior when the fleet’s in town is on the Central Park Lake. Don’t ask us to explain that, either. : MARCH 28-24-25

ON IDEA OF ONE BIGLABOR UNION

|Prefers ‘Independence’ but

Stresses Friendship With Movement as Whole.

The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, in Eastern Union meeting here today, made it known that it does not intend to join hands

with’ either the C. I. O. or‘A. F. of L. to form one large “labor congress” as has been proposed. The B. L. E. went on record in an adopted resolution today to “attend to its own affairs” yet remain “friendly to the ‘labor movement as a whole.” The union was {to meet today in a joint session with the Grand International Auxiliary to welcome the Indiana State Meeting of the organization. Mrs. Ella D. Turner, G. I. A. president, and Alvanley O. Johnston, head of the 60,000 organized engineers, were to preside at thé meeting. : ‘More than 300 delegates are aftending the four-day convention which opened at the Lincoln Hotel Sunday. The resolution of “independence” stated: ; “Whereas newspapers over the country have recently carried reports ‘of a proposal to have railrcad Brotherhoods affiliate with all other labor unions to form one big labor congress, be it resolved that the Eastern Union Meeting, representing locomotive engineers in the Eastern territory of the United States, declares that the B. L. E. should continue the policy followed throughout three quarters of a century of its existance of attending to its own affairs; allowing all other labor organizations to do likewise without interference from us: “Remaining friendly with the labor movement as a whole; working always for the best interests of the movement; without melting our membership into one big labor congress.” Yesterday in an interview Mr. Johnston declared that the B. L. E. was not now affiliated with either the C.I1.O.or A F. of L, Concerning labor’s internal strife, Mr. Johnston described the Government’s leadership as a “mistake.”

4 CHILDREN INJURED IN LOCAL ACCIDENTS

Four children, two of them babies, were injured in accidents reported to police today. oe A 16-month-old baby, Cortez McCombs, of 549 Chase St., was treated

at City Hospital for second-degree burns on the right leg. He had pulled a kettle of boiling water off a stove after climbing on a chair to reach it, police said. Charles Hunter, 18 months, of 1544 S. Harding St., was treated at City Hospital after he had drunk from a tincup containing kerosene. Charles Goins Jr, 5 son of Charles Goins Sr., 613 Shelby St., was treated at City Hospital for a dog bite on his hand. Mr. Goins told hospital attaches the boy had been bitten by a dog while playing in the rear of his home. Billy Walker, 14, of 1128 Bellefontaine St., fractured his right shoulder blade, police said, while doing gymnastics at School 10.

ONE DRINK COSTLY— $77 AND $1000 RING

SOUTH BEND, March 21 (U. P.). —Because a hotel room lacked heat, a Milwaukee, Wis., man today lacked $77, a $1000 diamond ring and four packs of cigarets. The visitor complained to the management when he first became cold and then went to the bar to warm up. When he returned he brought two young women. One of the latter brought along a bottle of liquor. The man told police he took one drink. When he awoke the girls, his ring, money and cigarets were gone.
