Stewart, Logan an Swope Get Attention from Robbin Coons | 1 By ROBBIN COONS ‘ HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Nov. 9.—Vir-| tually unsune but surely deserving| a tune is the bachelor hall of the Messers Stewart, Logan and Swope. Logan and Swope actually don't belong in a movie report, that they happen to be associated in domestic enterprise with Mr. Stewart, whose name (James) is flashing more and more brightly, on movie marques. | The trio—Logan and Swope are sons of wealth and interested in stocks and bonds—have just movell again. They live in more or less close harmony, but they move be- cause of it. i They have' their own orchestra.’ Stewart is fairly convinced of his artistry on accordion, piano and clarinet. Logan prefers the saxo- phone and Swope is equally good on trap drum or hair comb. “You'd be surprised what har- mony we get,’ as Stewart insists, “We've had neighbors come all the way from across the street to tell us about it.” All in Fun Swope agrees. “That always hap- pens—just before me move. This last move was accomplish- ed not without grief. For Stewart at least. He went vacationing to Ensenada, forgetting the movie code was every-man-for-himself. Logan and Swope removed their posses- sions, but Jimmy returned to find that he owed an additional month’s rent on the old place. He insists he paid it cheerfully. But he didn't care for the nice room the Messrs, Logan and Swope had reserved for him in the new house. It was a pink boudoir, decorated in taffeta, with dolls on the bed and lace doil- ies on the dressing table. Jimmy, regrettably, lost his tem- per for the moment. He telephon- ed a Hollywood interior decorator for help, but by the time 24 willing workers had cleared away, the fem- inine touches Mr. Stewart had achieved a fine state of philosophi- cal resignation. “If youre going to live with those guys,” he said, “you've got'to get used to them. I suppose I do some funny, things, myself.” | So he moved in his own seven- foet bed, and his dog, and— It seems a neighbor raises—or did raise—prize poultry. Stev*rt came home from the studio one night to learn he had seven prize hen corpses on his hands. Having bought them, he had a Scotch urge to make the best of things. There! was a banquet. Now Jimmy doesn’t care if he ever sees poultry, cooked or on the hoof, again. Has Toys One room in the Messers. Stewart, ! Bwope and Logan’s bachelor hall is reserved for Jimmy's toys.

Hundreds of shoes MUST GO. Shoes that are high quality and all leather. In some cases there are only one or two pairs of what are known as salesmen’s samples. These shoes are high priced and the latest in fall styles, yet we must make room for new Christmas merchandise which is com- ing in. Once a year our shelves must be cleared. We feel that by offering YOU and YOU and YOU tremendous savings in fine footwear will be a demonstration of our leadership in VALUE and QUALITY. These shoes consist of men's boots and ox- fords, boys' oxfords, growing girls' oxfords, women's oxfords, pumps, sandals and ties.

Bill Before Congress Hit by Two Societies that Are Involved WASHINGTON, Nov. 9. — The American Forestry Association and the Society of American Foresters joined today in opposing the gov- ernment reorganization bill pending before Congress. The Assoclations based their op- position to the portion of the bill which would authorize the creation of a Department of Conservation under that section. They contend that all conservation activities, ex- cept those of army engineers, could be grouped. The Forestry Assoclation state- ment sald that such action was “a reversal of those administrative principles which have been the foundation of a forestry since the days of Theodore Roosevelt.” A MECSERSCHMIDTS SATL A Mis.
