Since its founding Aug. 7, 1870, with 27 charter members, Red Cloud Tribe has grown to the biggest of nine (tribes in the city. At present there ‘are 300 Red Cloudsmen.

TELEVISION STATION GOST NOT EXCESSIVE
By Science Service NEW YORK, Jan. 21.—“Televi-
sion broadcasting is by no means limited to those with. millions to | invest, ” Allen B. Du Mont, presi{dent of the Du Mont Laboratories, | said here in a statement on the | present status’ of television. | “It is the writer's honest opinion,” he declared, “that a good start lin television broadcasting can be
| made for as little as $25,000. And
that figure can even be shaved if For that sum one can obtain a 50-watt video and audio transmitting setup, which will prove
|| adequate for the average city cover-
age. The transmitting aerial will have to be at least 250 feet high for satisfactory coverage of the desired area. The film pickup, camera and associated equipment will round out the requirements. “At this early date almost any kind of program material will prove adequate. Just as the local weekly paper has a place in the community, despite the overwhelming bulk and appeal of the big metropolitan daily, so the local television station can find a place despite the millions that may be talked about for big metropolitan enterprises.” Defense demands are temporarily slowing the development of television, Mr. Iu Pont believes.

Hollywood
Old-Time Star Explains Loss of Latin Markets
By PAUL HARRISON Times Special Writer
HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 21.—Antonio Moreno reached back into his personal history today and brought out an explanation of what has happened to American~ made movies in Spanish-speaking markets. Even though Hollywood itself is not inclined to listen to the testimony of qualified experts, I thought you might like to know. This is the Antonio Garrido (Monteagudo) Moreno whom you have not heard much about since the beginning of talkies. Before that, of course, he was a great star. Spanish-born, New Yorkeducated, he had roles in plays with Mrs. Leslie Carter, the first Tyrone Power, and Constance Collier, transferred to the flickers in 1914. Early in 1930 the industry sud-

Harry “Pappy” Cheshire, the radio comedian, is about to tell the officer just where the fire is in the Lyric’s forthcoming movie, called “Barnyard Follies,” which opens Friday.
denly became conscious of markets to be won in 'all LatinAmerica and Spain. Moreno made the first Spanish-version films at Fox, Metro, Paramount and all the rest. By that time he was so wound up in commitments he remained in foreign versions five years. By then Hollywood had forgotten Antonio Moreno could speak English. » 4 ”
“SINCE 1936,” he said, “I have had about 35 days’ work in Hollywood.” That total includes minor roles in the last Dietrich picture and the current produc= tion of “They Met in Argentina,” an RKO semi-musical. Trim, maturely handsome and resonantvoiced at 52, he’s playing a few scenes as a Wealthy native of Buenos Aires. Moreno reveals a little wistful puzzlement about why Hollywood has so long ignored him. It isn’t that he needs grocery money, although he probably is not nearly as well-to-do as might be indicated by the fact that a few years ago he and his wife assigned their mansion in Moreno Highlands to a semi-charitable institution. They now live in a house which cost $100,000 in 1927, and the taxes are murderous. The actor hopes to turn director soon, go to Cuba with a company being formed to make Spanishlanguage pictures. Moreno directed the first talkie produced in Mexico City, and it earned a mil‘lion pesos. He also became associated with an outfit in Spain, and he had acted in one picture (in the role of an American) when the revolution flared up and spoiled everything.
” # »
THE MANY Spanish films he made here in Hollywood were special versions of feature productions. such as “Bad Man” and “The Cat and the Canary.” The scheme was to hire an all-Latin cast which would follow the regular company, using the same sets and translation of scripts. It worked fairly well, but would have been much more successful, Moreno explained, if the translations had not been so awkwardly literal and if the players had been a little more carefully chosen. “Perhaps they'd hire a Mexican, a Cuban, a Basque and an Argentinian,” he recalled, “and show ‘em on the screen as members of one family.” One or two companies finally hired. Spanish: experts to see that everything was done just right. But they were conscientious and slow, sent costs skyrocketing. So the studios quit making Spanish versiong and the Latin-American market was lost.

Met Curtain Pieces Sold
TwoTon Gold Cloth Cut Into
1500 Bits.
Times Special NEW YORK, Jan, 21, — The
Metropolitan Opera’s gold curtain, recently replaced after 35 years of use, has been cut up- into 1500 pieces which are being sold for benefit of the Metropolitan Opera
Guild’s student fund. The curtain, which had risen and descended on some of the most celebrated names in operalic history, weighed two and one-half tons. Small pleces o* it are being sold for bookmaiks at one dollar, with larger pieces priced accordingly. A Californian wrote in that he wanted a bit of the curtain. for sentimental reasons. He wag the Metrapolitan’s curtain boy in 1904. Another request ‘was for enough material to upholster several chairs. And one of the oddest bids was from a man in Australia who wanted a piece with holes in it. A Lily Pons fan, he had heard that Miss Pons cut a hole in the curtain for each new role she sang. A big section of the curtain went to the Melbourne Conservatory in Australia, from which John Brown=lee, Met baritone, was graduated.
