Frankly, Disney says he's stumped. Some- one suggested the word “fable,” but it isn't wholly descriptive. “Moving pictures,” this writer's suggestion. is more apt, Disney admitted, but it still doesn’t tell the story. “Snow White” is being done in soft shades, not in the hard colors of Disney’s Mickey Mouse and Silly Symphony one-reel pictures. Each scene is a studied composition in shading, in lights and shadows and, importantly, in story. ‘Dopey’ Was Trouble Four years ago Disney started working on the feature. He firs had it drawn in black and white, to get the story set, Few changes have been made from the original tale. The Dwarfs (who, I'll wager, will steal the show from the toc lovely Snow White and her Prince Charming) have been given defin- |4 ite personalities and endowed with characteristics that Grimm neglect- ed to give them. “Dopey” gave the most trouble. They had to make him a simple fellow (sort of Harpo Marxish) without making him moronic. “Ooc” is the leader of the crew. “Grumpy” was easy and so was “Sleepy.” *“Sneezy,” a artists the subject of hay fever, always sneezes | at the wrong time. “Bashful” kind hearted and willing. “Happy” has a bright voice and a perpetual smile. In the original, the Queen who becomes a witch was dance to death in red hot shoes; but Disney makes it a rule never to kill a character. Even Cock Robin forced to| 0Old Witch. ’didn't actually die and of course the Big Bad Wolf, who deserved a fate even worse than death, is still at |large and perhaps at this moment sharpening his teeth for another | screen appearance. The witch, in the Disney version, will disappear over a cliff, swept off with the wind and lightning, but you won't see her die. Extravaganza Cost In order to finish the film Christmas release, 300 artists putting the finishing touches on the pictures—250,000 of them. In all, Disney estimates, more than 2,000,000 drawings have been made. Once, 500 artists were work- ing on it. Some statistical-minded soul at the Disney plant estimated that if one man did all the work, working eight hours a day—and tak- ing a well-deserved vacation of two weeks every year—it would take him 230 years to draw “Snow White.” Disney refuses to say what his feature .has cost, but Hollywood hears that he already has $850,000 sunk in it and that by the time it is completed—color prints being as expensive as they are — “Snow White” will have set him back at least a million and a quarter dol- lars. for are s soC oy STOCK QUOTATIONS * NEW YORK, Nov. 8. — Closing ‘quotation of Alaska Juneau mine stock today i§ 12%, American Can 85%, American Power and Light 6%, Anaconda 25%, Bethlehem Steel 47%, Calumet 8, Common- wealth and Southern 1%, Curtiss Wright 3%, General Motors 39%, International Harvester 64%, Ken: necott 29%, New York Central 18%, {Southern Pacific 19%, United States Steel 54%, Cities Service 17%, Pound 1$5.02%, Bremner bid 1 asked 3, Republic Steel 18.

Lloyd (Kinky) Bayers, master of the Wanderer, and John Turner, left the Wanderer anchored close inshore at Twin Points, 35 miles |south of Juneap on Glass Penin-| sula, with seven persons aboard yes- terday morning and started the long row for aid, with danger of the Wanderer being dashed on the rocks by a change of wind spurring their efforts, After 15 miles of work at the oars 108,00 the men were picked up by the Grace E,, Capt. Curly Cameron and Norris Richardson, who bruughl‘ them to Juneau. Had the Grace E.| not been met at that time, the two; oarsmen would have been forced to row the entire distnce to Juneau. On arrival here at 4 p. m. Sunday, the Haida was informed of the Wanderer's danger and at 5:30 p. m. left for the rescue, but ran into a snow storm off Taku that forced |ienced in running into the narrow ‘vn!rume of the harbor because of |thick weather. | The Wanderer was taken in tow |at 8:15 o'clock this morning and| !Henry Harmon and Russel Owen,! |who had been hunting at Glass | Point, were picked up for the re- turn trip that brought the Wan- |derer into the harbor here at 1| |o’clock this afternoon. | | “We deeply appreciate the Haida's, assistance,” said Kinkay Bayers to- day, red-eyed from loss of sleep and his tiring row. “Had the cutter not gotten there when it did, the north wind that was making at the uime, would have surely piled the Wanderer on the beach.” | Those who were on the Wanderer at the time of the breakdown were Kell Larsen, Russel Owen, Henry Harmon, Wendell Schneider, Carlyn Dewey, Kurt Iirchhofer, Vincent Beauchamp and John Turner. A broken distributor shaft was the cause of the breakdown. — e | Willie Hanson, charfied with be- ing drunk and disorderly, was sen- tenced to six months in jail by U. 8. | !

ANSWER: Salmon advertising will go into nearly fwo out of every three homes in the United States. In the cities this proportion will be even greater—13,237,600 of the 18,021,200, or 74%, of all families living in U. S. cities. In rural and farm districts this advertising will g0 to 5,219,000 housewives—slightly less than half the total of 11,130,- 000 rural families.
