(hicMtrvd Underground In this dizzy town that the In dians sold for $24, half the pop ulation seems to be forever scur rying into holes under the ground. The subway entrances swallow enormous quantities of people into its seemingly endless maw. A good quarter of the city moves from one part to the other between 8:30 and 9:30 in the morning and from 5 to 6 at night. At those times the subways are jammed with people, guards pushing just one more into a mass of humanity which seems already packed tighter than the proverbial sardines. At least the sardines have a little oil between them—but in the New York subway, rush you're closer to your neighbors than if you were dancing with them. ' However it seems to be a great j saving in newspapers. At least i two-thirds of the subway-farers i your reporter has observed seem j to be reading someone else's paper over his or her shoulder. They tell me of one passenger who exhibited what seemed the height of New York nerve. She was a demure miss in her late teens and she was getting the latest on the Czech situation from the newspaper of her next, door standee. Finally she said, "I'm ready for you to turn the page!" Stardust r Rudy Vallee tells hi s girl friends to wear long gloves and form-fitting satin dresses when going out stepping with America's Crooner No. 1 . . . Constance Bennett will appear in a bathing suit in a forthcoming movie all because a columnist said she didn't dare show her figure to the fans . . . Oscar of the Waldorf, world-renowned authority on food, has been' ill—of stomach trouble. The radio networks will short ly be investigated on charges of monopoly . . . Outside the new International Casino, and the Paradise there is not one single night club of any importance ac tually on Broadway now . . . The night club sector these days is on 52nd street between sth and 6th avenues where over 40 hot spots, according to the last count, are congregated in the one block . . . As many as seven clubs are door to door in this area . . . John Barrymore's wife is saving his now recouped fortune for him . . . Wallace Beery's studio doesn't seem to mind his flying so much anymore. Double When he walked into the cub byhole I laughingly, call my of fice, I felt sure that the heavens had descended and the President himself had come to compare his stamp collection with mine. _ "I know what you're thinking," hie said, "but you're wrong. I'm not Franklin D., but instead plain J. Henry Smythe, Jr." The man who looks more like the President than the President does himself is a sloganeer and a Republican. He writes slogans for a living—and tries to elect Republican presidents for an avocation. His business has been good. He was the chap responsible for such stuff as "A Bond Is A Prayer That You Send Over There" for the government during the last World War and "He Kept Us Out Of Worse" for a man called Herbert Hoover dur ing Depression 1. He is now working on some thing about "A New Deck To Be Dealt By Republicans To Oppose The NeW Deal." People do not necessarily have to be physical acrobats, mental geniuses, or plumed knights to prepare to go to Reno. ■ H 9 OU »•!« ■RK JG L I ftooa CIIANM JB kimmm. *oi *Tiv• ■ MOVM tri/tllt I »OWI«?TFT |V RANI CUAMTT Harris Electric Co.
