'fag of Fear'
Features Great
Circus Ads
When "Ring of Fear" opens here,
movie fans will have the opportuni
ty U see some of the world's most
famous circus acts, according to ad
vance reports on the Cinemascope
circus thriller.
Filmed by Wayne - Fellows for
Warner Bros., "Ring of Fear" was
made in Phoenix, Arizona, at the
winter headquarters of Clyde Beat
ty 's circus. Beatty, who stars in
the film with Mickey Spillane and
Pat O'Brien, gathered some of the
greatest names in circusdom un
der his big top.
The Wailendas, who have been
in the circus business for five gen
erations. are the only group who.
can perform a seven person pyra
mid on the high wire. Their spe
cialty is said to be a highlight of
the circus-action- scenes.
The Flying Zacchinis, a family of
high-flying daredevils, are also
seen in the center ring as they float
through the air with the greatest
of ease, precariously astride the
flying trapeze.
Captain John Cline with his Lib
erty horses, Tiny Gallagher and
others are also seen, but as it
is in all three-ring circuses, the
star of the show is always the man
who walks into a cage full of wild
beasts.
"In "Ring of Fear" it is Clyde
Beatty, playing a true-to life role,
who carries the whip and the chair.
Fans are promised a closer-than
ever view of Beatty in action as the
Cinemascope cameras were operat
ed from within the steel bars of
the big cat's cage by a newly per
fected remote control system.
Mickey Spillane, whose fame was
found in another field, also ap
pears in "Ring of Fear" in the
role of a hard-hitting mystery nov
elist, himself. But he steps out of
character for one brief scene in
which he performs with a troupe
of acrobats on the high bouncing
trampoline.
"Ring of Fear" was directed by

New Fast-Drying Dry-Wall
Plaster Is Now Available
j Plastered dry walls are one of
the newest and smoothest develop
ments in modern building tech
nique. Heretofore you took your
choice between plaster and dry
walls. Now you can have both the
speed and economy of dry wall
construction and a coat of quick
drying (paint-itthe- next-day) plas
ter, thanks to an invention by Vito
Busatti.
This new material is a white
mortar dry-mix preparation which
can be applied as thin as l/32nd of
an inch over gypsum wallboard,

by Robert M. Fellows.

the do-it-yourself handyman,
who wants to finish his basement,
add rooms in the attic or obliterate
seams and nail dimples in dry wall
panels.
The inventor recently won ap
proval of his new plaster from the
New York Board of Standards and
Appeals. That approval made it
legal to use the stuff in skyscrap
ers. Joseph Platzker, former com
missioner of housing and buildings
for New York City, called it to
our attention.
"It can be troweled to a marble
smooth finish even by the most
inexperienced hand," said Platzker.
"It dries rock-hard without crack
ing, chipping or peeling, and it can
be wallpapered or painted in a
matter of hours with no special
sealing or priming coats."
He pointed out that home build
ers, using gypsum wallboard and a
single coat of the new plaster, are
saving the tedious and costly prob
lem of taping, filling and satttttig
joints, as well as file prime eaht of
sealer needed on the porus paper
surface of wallboard.
"In labor time," he added, "it
takes two mechanics and a helper
only two days to completely plaster
the average 5-room drywall home
with this material. The next day
the painters can move in."
A companion joint filler, de
veloped by the sqme inventor,
eliminates the taping and filling
of joints in dry wall construction
when you don't want to plaster.
This filler also can be used as a
tile cement for bathroom fixtures,

Mildew Hints
It's about this time every year
that homemaksrs throughout North
Carolina are plagued with mildew.
Mildew, however, isn't selective
about where it grows. It may
show up on your best pair of shoes,
your leather gloves, in your book
shelves, or it may even spread
across the walls of your house.
According to Pauline E. Gordon,
State College Extension specialist
in housing' and house furnishings,
mildew may form on the walls of a
house in damp, humid areas where
there is an absence of sunshine,
food in the form of oils in paint
films, and the presence of mildew
spores. Adding a fresh coat of
paint over a mildew wall is no
way to combat the problem. In
stead, the brush will just spread
the spores so that the mildew may
return more vigorous than ever.
Miss Gordon explains that mil
dew is a fungus which lives on veg
etable matter like paint oils. It
can eat through several coats of
paint.
To get rid of mildew, wash your
walls with a solution of one pound
of trisodium phosphate to one gal
lon of water. Then rinse the walls
with clear water. Trisodium phos
phate may be bought at a drug
store.
Miss Gordon adds that special "
mildew - resistant paints are avail
able. A poison can be added to
paint but it ahould be used, with
great caution. Some products of
this type are available which are
non-toxic to humans or to animals.
The point to bear in mind if
your walls are mildewed is to wash
the walls with a solution to kill
the spores before you add fresh
paint.
for cracks around bathtubs and as
a wood filler. It is rated to resist
a surface pull up to 182 pounds per
square inch.
Both the new plaster and the
filler are given high moisture re
sistances. While the plaster is not
waterproof, its inventor claims that
dampness does not affect its
strength. This makes it possible to
use it directly on basement walls
without the use of furring strips,
lath, panels, or other surface preps
ration. It can take the place of
masonry paint whether the foun
dation is stone, poured concrete,
cinder block or brick.
"The cost of a cellar applica
tion," Platzker observed, "would
be somewhat higher than painting
with a cement paint, but a good
deal lower than erecting wall
