FROM TEACHER Two-Gun ATack Greets Intruders at Klamath f Falls, Oregon KLAMATH FALLS, Oregon; Nov. 22.—A group of Klamath Indian by Wwho Droke into LJthe living quarters of Miss Laona Jehnson, school teacher, just before classes were taken up today, met a two- gun attack which routed the intru- ders.

MOVIES HAVE APPEALS GOURT IN HOLLYWOOD Regular “Conciliation Council” Sits in Judg- ment on Disputes HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Nov. 22— 'The movies’ own court of appeals is Lakmg more and more business way from the lowntown halls of justice, and is justifying its dis- tinction in ‘the \Industry. The screen ‘court” is the “academy's “con- iliation commit- tee,” composed of * répresentatives of arious branches f the industry VAMES CAGNEY and sits in Judgment on disputes arising be- tween screen employer and em- ployee when the other brings charges. Its activities sprang into prom- inence especially with the settle- ment of the James Cagney-War- ner Bros. salary fracas, after it threatened to drag on interminably and came into the news again soon afterward when Radio reversed the situation and made -claims against Lee Tracy, an actor in one of its films. The other day a court case in- /ing Pauline Starke and Direct- T James Cruze, the actress claim- ing $6,500 salary allegedly due, was taken from the docket by agree- ment and placed before the con- ciliation committee. , BUSY COURT These headline activities, how- ever, are but a small part of the work of the unique “court of ap- peals.” It constantly handles mi- nor disagreements between lesser players and lesser studios, as well as between stars and major com- vanies. It settles problems like a bit players’ plea for that extra half day's salary with as much dispatch as it handles a Cagney or a Tracey or a Cruze. The committee, because it is representative of the entire indus- try, shows all sides of the ques- tions involved, and its decisions are based on its knowledge as well as on arbitration. Besides costing the disputants nothing, it serves tc keep the colony’s troubles to itself, more or. less, instead of having them aired publicly. “SHOOTING THE WORKS” Preview shopping lately has been such an encouraging business we softly began to wonder if the pro- ducers, after all, didn’t mean it when they promised to “shoot the works” for the fall box-office campaign. Within a week we've seen Lu- bitsch’s sparking “Trouble in Para- dise,”; 2 new star, Katherine Hep- burn, flash in a beautifully enact- ed tragedy. “A Bill of Divorce- ment”; one of Ronald Colman’s most san;{lmry vehicles, “Cyn- era,”; for’ grown-ups and children alike a thrilling dog end animal film, “Trailing the Killer”; “Air Mail,” a real aerial breath-taker; “Life Begins,” Loretta Young’s best vehicle to date; in comedy a fool- ish but amusing thing called “Rack- ety Rax” and in the mystery school—for those who care—a piece called “Secrets of the French Po- lice” which has all the old tricks and a few new ones. - e CORRECTION REGARDING ARITCLE ON NIGHT SCHOOL In yesterday's issue of The Em- pore, in an anticle relating to the opening of the Citizenship Night School, R. S. Raven, Superintend- ent of Public Schools, was quoted as saying the classes are for “al- ients desiring to qualify themselves jor citizenship” and for “white men and women” wishing to im- prove themselves in reading, writ- ing and such ordinary branches.” The phrase, “white men and wo- men” was an error. What Mr. Raven said ‘was ‘“other men and women.” Queen of Models Is Ruler of Style Realm; broadcast major| | ; y Hornsby has slowed up, of s : 29 :i::gil;en games for a Chicago radio 6 » Tris admitted, “but he 5, 30 i 't ol "1l always be able| She Is N()":’ YOTL 8§ o "llss Flftll Ave’lue | This season finds him touri h“ud 0 St e the cou with an operetta r | vival Tris doesn't apy { the stag By WILLIAM GAINES NEW YORK, Nov. 22. — M by “Miss Pifth Avenue,” the most | 3 iy e ic but im- ::;’;;sh model on the avenue of b stendify i AR Her name is Leons Sousa, and r before each perform- she’s a brunet five feat 10'¢ inches tall. She’s 23 years old and hec weight 15 130 pounds. A committee of stylists chose Miss | Sousd as “Miss Fifth Avenue” ‘n! connection with the observation or the Fifth Avenue Association's 25th‘ anniversary. Shops along the streat | nominated their leading models, and she won over 25 finalists. Miss Sousa was born in Elsinore, | Cal. When she was attending high| school, her teachers “flunked” her because they said she wasn't pro-\ ficlent in her sewing work. That came as quite a blow to her then,l she recalls, because at that veryl time she was making her own tafl-t ored suits. Very becoming they were, too, as Miss Sousa remem- bers them. The title “Miss Fifth Aveuue” came to the former California gnrl not only becauss of her ability to wear creations at the exclusive shop | where she works, but because she| is such a stunningly gowned girl on the streets as well. And, a large numb:r of the frocks and Rats that| § have brought her her reputation are her own creations. She designs and makes them herself. Now her highest ambition is Lo‘ have a Fifth Avenue style shop of her own. That has eclipsed her| earlier goal—a stage career which lured her to New York. | Miss Sousa has a good soprano| voice, and still is cultivating it This season she will go into an- _ other musical production here. “I just use the stage to make money now,” she says. “When I have enough, I'm going to open | my own shop.” | At 17 she left high school and| started singing in clubs in Holly-| wood and Los Angeles. She turned down opportunities in the movies because the New York stage ap- pealed to her more. This past sum-| mer she was with the Municipal Opera Company in St. Louis. Two and a half years ago she found it helped fatten her purse | to model in her spare time. When a group of models organized the| Models’ Guild, she joined them. Miss Sousa is quite a sports- woman, also. Riding and tennis are| her favorite diversions. She does! some swimming but here's a tip, to girls: phatically is not a sun tan enthu-| siast. She thinks a fair complexion is one of a girl's greatest charms. SIXTY CLUBWOMEN GIVEN PLANE RIDE DENVER, Nov. 22—“Get a wom- an in the air for her first ride” Mrs. Carlos L. Reavis, wife of] Colonel Reavis of the Colorado Na- tional Guard, and President of the Women's Aeronautical Association of Denver, declared, “and she comes down a flying enthusiast and a crusader for the cause.” To prove this point, Mrs. Reavis gave a tea at the Denver Muni-| cipal Airport, to which 250 Denver clubwomen were invited. The names of those who had never been up| in an airplane were put into al box and sixty names were drawn. The sixty lucky women were taken for a plane ride during the after- noon. The guests, without exception, ac- cording to Mrs. Reavis, declared they enjoyed their flights. e e——— China has 474,787,386 inhabitants.
