Nelson Eddy Adds Pipe CoDecting
/ewey Think$WiIlkie
MakeGood Campaign
To His Long List Of “Hobbies”
!,Philadelphia, June 28.—^Thom
as E. Dewey predicted today that
Wendell Wlllkle would “conduct
a hell of a good campaign” and
declared he would do anything he
was “called on” to do to help the
new party leader win.
Dewey, rested s./mewhat after
a seven and a halt hours’ sleep,
said he was “tremendously” glad
le had made the campaign for the
Republican presidential nomina-
fion, despite his defeat by Willkie.
As to the future, he said;
“The only idea I have in the
World Is tr render every possible
rupport to „iy party, and consist
ent with that, to get In as much
sleep and horseback riding as I
^■ioan during the next few months.”
BIRTHDAY DINNER
One of the busiest men In Hol
lywood Is a star who wishes upon
himself the most outside activity.
He Is Nelson Eddy, the chap
with a dozen hobbies, not count
ing his three-way career in pic
tures, concerts and radio. Eddy’s
newest film, “New Moon,’’ In
which he appears with Jeanette
MacDonald, at the Liberty Thea
tre next week. During the produc
tion of this film the singer-actor
not only engaged In his newest
hoiblby, that of sculpturing, but
added pipe collecting to hig list.
“Everyone should have some
type of a hobby.” Eddy said. “He
doesn't really begin to enjoy life
until he adopts one. It broadens
an individual’s scope and his
viewpoint. Trips no longer are
simply trips to be enjoyed and
then forgotten. They are definite
missions through which one hopes
to add to a collection or a certain
fund of knowledge.’’
To date Eddy’s hobbles have
been numerous. Sculpturing, of
course, is the most serious. Then
in addition are such items as col
lecting T’ang horses, wood-carv
ing, Chinese pewter, oil paintings,
antique furniture and amateur
recording.
“And I still work at these too,”
Eddy said. “Every concert tour
finds me returning home loaded
with additions to my collections
and with packing cases arriving
daily by rail.”

The projected army plan has
