Behind the Seen w I in - OLLYUJOOD LEGEND OF THE DOGWOOD "At the time of the crucifixion the dogwood was the size of the oak, and other forest trees. So firm and strong was the tree that it was chosen as the timber for the cross. "To be used thus for such a cruel purpose greatly distressed the trees, and Jesus, nailed upon it, sensed this and in His gentle pity for all sorrow and suffering, said to it: "'Because of your regret and pity for my suffering, never again shall the dogwood trees grow large enough to be used as a cross. Henceforth it shall be slender and bent and twisted and its blossoms shall be in the form of a cross two long and two short petals. And in the center of the outer edge of each petal there will be nail By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright, 198S hint Feature. Syndicate, Inc. HOLLYWOOD. It's all over. The Academy awards are made but Hollywood is still talking about he party that went on until the early hours at the B i 1 1 m o r e Bowl It la talking most about the speech of Spen cer Tracy who stole the eve ning as be has stolen so many pictures. "I don't feel that I can ac cept the award for myself," said Tracy as he faced the 1,200 people who filled the bowl to its last tier. "But I would like to accept it in the way which I am sure it was meant for Father Flanagan, a man whose goodness, kindness and simplicity must have been great enough to shine even through me." If Hollywood had any doubt that Spencer Tracy had given the finest performance In 1938 In "Boys Town," it certainly had no doubt that his modesty had scored the individual triumph of this year's Academy ball.

Es corted to the party by her cousin, Bette wore a plain evening gown set off by birds of paradise feath ers at the nvckllne. "They tickle terribly," she confessed. Bette didn't wear a single jewel. "And for a good reason," she said. "I don't own any. They'll have to come later." Shirley Temple was so excited she forgot part of her lines in awarding a prize to Walt Disney. But downstairs for the newsreels, she did the same speech perfectly. Harry Warner, on the other hand, blew up three times before the cameras as James Roosevelt pre sented him with the award for ap plied Americanism. Roosevelt was calm both downstairs and later while awarding the prize for the best picture of the year, but his father still has the best voice in the family. Funniest aftermath of the ball Was the experience of James Cag ney. The Cagneys had decided to sleep that night at their partially Completed home in Coldwater can yon. As they were driving in, they heard a noise in the back. Cagney went snooping with a gun and sur prised a coyote making a kill on one of the star's sheep. Cagney shot it through the head the first actor in Hollywood history to kill a coyote while wearing top hat and tails. Lloyd C. Douglas was the longest-winded speaker, but he got off one of the sharpest cracks of the evening after announcing that "Pygmalion" had won the award for the best scenario. "I never thought I'd live to see the day," he said, "when I'd be giving the award to the British consul to take to George Bernard Shaw." . The farewells of the Tarzan lo cation troupe were interrupted at the railroad station for M-G-M to present youni; Johnny Sheffield with a bicycle. It seemed a funny time to do it. Just as he was leav ing for Florida, but the studio would have held up the train rather than let Johnny get away without accepting the bike. The reason is cne of thoe inside stories that make life in Hollywood so amusing. When Johnny was being signed, his agent thought it would be a good publicity gag to Insert a clause in the contract tbit the boy star must receive a bicycle Li addi tion to his salary. The incident was forgotten by the studio until the legal department suddenly dis covered that the whole contract could be broken unless this gag clause was carried out. No boy ever got a bicycle faster.

"Although few of them can be fully self-supporting, and ft was not the purpose of Congress that they be so. . . . It is believed that those who actually visit the national parks and monuments should make small contributions for services those visitors receive which are not receiv ed by citizens who do not visit the parks, but who contribute to the sup port of these parks."
