$30,000 in Awards
Offered for Art
NEW YORK, June 1—<U.R>—An
International art competition, open
to American and French artists,
offers $30,000 In prizes for the
best paintings with Christmas
themes.
Joyce C. Hall, greeting card pub-
lisher and a trustee of the Kansas
City Art institute, is sponsoring
the awards. He believes that "one
effective way to stimulate the best
in modern art is to give the artists
strong incentives, definite objec-
tives and the largest possible au-
dience.
"The best works of today's
American and French artists will
get mass circulation through the
award program," Hall said. He
plans to reproduce selected paint-
ings from both countries on
his company’s Christmas greeting
cards.
The Wlldenstein Galleries in
New York and Paris are conduct-
ing the contest, and will exhibit
the winning paintings In December.

CHICAGO — (U.R) — Clarence

years and eight days of his 24
years had been spent behind bars.

IX OLLYW OOD, June 1 -<U.R>—
-H When they make n coat of
arms for the Hollywood casting
director, they'll Include, promi-
nently, an aspirin bottle.
This may surprise some of you
who thought casting director and
couch went together like sugar and
cream. Oh no, says the Metro-
Goldwyn-Mayer casting office. A
casting director’s life is an un-
relieved headache.
Take the request for a girl be-
tween 5 and 8 for an important
role in "The Red Danube,” a story
of post-war Vienna. The qualifi-
cations: thin und half-starved, of
German or Austrian ancestry and
speaking no English.
Now where, in the new land of
milk and honey, is a casting di-
rector going to find a half-starved
child?
The office got in touch with
refugee agencies and newspapers.
Letters poured in. One youngster
answered every qualification but
one. He was a bov.
By the time Janlne Perreau,
the healthy litlle sister of another
juvenile actress, sot the part, the
casting office was off rounding up
another l,50p southern Californians
who looked starved enough to pass
for imernees in a DP camp.
Well-fed, healthy refugees were
a dime a dozen. The emaciated
ones the script required had
be plucked off Skid Row.
Tile secret of getting them to
look real was picking men with
false teeth. When the studio
snatched out the choppers, the
extras looked as if they hadn’t
i a ten in a month.
FVir the same picture the cast-
ing office also unearthed a dozen
young men 6 feet 3 inches or more
tall. They were to play Russian
soldiers.
It unearthed characters with
beards. It classified a hundred
assorted accents.
Now it’s working on another
order.
"Fur 'Tlie Red Danube’," the or-
der read. "Call three (3) corpses.”
DON’T LOOK NOW, BUT—
MEMPHIS. Tenn. ’ * <U.R>— Mrs
Emma Rutland heard a noise be-
hind her and when she looked
there was a black cat meowing at
his reflection in a broken mirrpr.

POWER SHORTAGE
HERE v
Ladies in charge of »h# 200,000 OGiSE served homes
are wondering why the political engineers are ever-
lastingly chanting. "Power Shortage. Dozens of
times, day and night, these ladies are snapping
switches in rooms and on their many appliances . . •
and always, plenty of ELECTRICITY instantly goes
to work.
There is no "Power Shortage" here and strength
at the ewitches proves it. It all is a trumped up
dream ol political engineers who, for some unsub-
stantial reason or other, seek justification for wasting
millions and millions of the taxpayers' dollars to build
duplicating and needless high voltage lines into
areas already being adequately served.
And that is what is happening here,
