We Pick As Follows
It s hard to tell who will win and why, but anyway
we select the following to come through with victories;
Kose Bowl California vs Tennessee. It looks like Cali
fornia is a little too strong and they are playing at home.
Sugar Bowl Texas A. and M. - Tulane- Texas has been
rated as one of. the strongest, if not the strongest, in the
nation. Our vote goes to Texas.
Orange Bowl Georgia Tech ve Missouri: Our head is
noading toward Georgia Tech-
Cotton Bowl Boston vs Clemson: It looks like we are
selecting Clemson solely on account of McFadden.

Humphrey Bogart
Tells On Filmland
Hollywood is a goofy place.
Charles Laughton said that
once, and now Humphrey Bogart
seconds the motion.
Laughton only said it He didn’t
prove it. Bogart not only says it,
but he says he can prove it. He
did some sleuthing and research
ing between gun battles on the
set of “Invisible Stripes”, the pic
ture which will start a two-day
showing Monday at the Dolly
Madison theatre and has emer
ged with the following cryptic
notes:
In Hollywood—Mike is not an
Irish comedian. It is the micro
phone that picks up the actors’
voices.
A beard is not a chest protec
tor. It is the covering for the
microphone.
A baby does not have to be
diapered or fed from a bottle. It
is a small spot light.
A three-step is not a new
dance. It is a short stepladder.

Donald Meek,
Ex-Sketcher
Donald Meek, who plays the
irascible editor in “The House
keeper’s Daughter,” Hal Roach’s
new comedy romance, has some
experience of his own to model
the character on. Meek, at one
stage of his theatrical career,
drew sketches for newspaper dra
ma sections, and had his own
tangles with editors in the cour
se of his work for them. Philadel
phia was the scene of this exper
ience.
“The Houskeeper’s Daughter,”
stars Joan Bennett and Adophe
Menjou and is the current Unit
ed Artists release at the Palace
theatre Monday and Tuesday.

University of Tennessee’s chan
ces against Southern California
in the Rose Bowl look pretty good
to Andy Kerr, shrewed football
coach at Colgate.
“Tennessee has a good chan
ce to win as any Southern team
in recent years,” he said. “It is
stronger on defense than offense.
The presence of Halfback George
Gafego will mean a lot, of cour

NEW PAINT JOB
Des Moines, la. Workmen
moving filing cabinets in the
State Supreme Court Clerk’s of
fice exposed a patch of wall that
' had not been repainted since the
capitol was finished in 1886.
Evidently the cabinets hadn’t
been moved during previous de
corating jobs. Now they’re going
to paint all the walls, all over,
for the first time in 56 years.
