He d just hauled 100-pound Ann Blyth and her 55-pound mermaid's tail over a 200-foot trail for the umpteenth time. "I seriously doubt," Powell said sternly, "that all those takes were necessary. In my opinion, once was enough.'' The scene for "Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid " called for Powell, Mr. Peabody. to carry Miss Blyth, the mermaid, from the portico of his Caribbean home across the garden to the pool. Miss Blyth is ordinarily light as a feather. But she was wearing a 20-pound fish tail and 35 pounds of weights. The camera traveled alongside Powell as he staggered out of the house, down the steps and across the lawn. After the first shot, director Irving Pichel decided on a line of dialogue. Making It Look Better "Stop at I he bottom of the stops,'' 'he told Powell. "Tell her you're sorry you had to get her out of your wife's bathtub.'' Powell went through the scene two more times. "Guess you better make another stop next time," Pichel said. "Shift your grip a little. And you might stagger slightly make it look bet ter.'' The stagger was no act. And Powell spoke his line with real feeling: "If you don't mind my saying so, my pet, you're no minnow." Powell did it two times more that way. It looked perfect to me," he said. But Pichel and cameraman Russ Metty emerged from a whispered huddle and said they needed the whole thing over again. "Another camera angle," they explained. No wonder when the picture was over Powell streaked out of Universal-International for a long rest at Palm Springs.

Come Get Them While They last. Junaluska Supply Co. Jerry Liner, Owner 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Last year, this country used more oil than the whole world did in 1939 - before World War II. There are 3,000,000 more cars on the road than there were before the war. And the average motorist is using 50 more saltans of gasoline per year in his car 25r; more buses - 30 more trucks - serve you now than ixforc the war. Farmers have doubled their use of time-saving, work-saving trac tors, trucks, and other equipment since pre-war! 1,500,000 more home owners heat their homes with oil than in 1939. Today, production of petroleum products has reached an all-nme record A-61 greater than before the war and 12 greater than the peak year of war-time production! But you still need lots more oil. And that means new, expanded facilities for finding, producing, transporting, refining, and deliv ering more oil. And that's the job America's oil industry is working on right now - around the clock and with sleeves rolled up! THE JOB AHEAD is a big job, calling for big plans and bji performance. ONE BILLION DOLLARS . . . that's one thousand million Jolhr ...is what this one company and its affiliates are spending and 1948 to modernize and expand production and facilities at V greatest rate in our history. And that's only part of the story. During the next few year 1 reports indicate, the oil industry as a whole is planning to sPcna 13 BILLION DOLLARS to do this job.
