Weath's | Screen Dancers THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, APRIL 1 Win Rights By Sit-Down Strike Threat BY the Associated Press. HOLLYWOOD, April 1.—The blond benuty suggested a sit-down strike among—of all people—a group of Hollywood chorines. The scene was a huge sound stage where the chorus girls were re- hearsing an oxtravagant dance num- ber for a huge musical picture, “Broadway Melody of 1937.” The director and straw-bosses had not returned from lunch. The chorines were idling about. Betty McMahon, petite dancer, men= tioned that the recent importation of 12 lovely models from New York for & musical film did not seem quite right. “Why do they bring these girls in from New York when right here in Hollywood are girls prettier, more talented and needing jobs bad?” asked Miss McMahon. “These New York models haven't anything we haven't got. They haven't as much. We've had experi- ence. They're just clotheshorses.” A brunette dancer made the broad statement that all New York girls looked pretty peaked and listless, as This is the week fo gef your new —and Bond’s is the place!

At this crisis Dance Director Dave Gould came upon the scene with & call to arms, legs and rhythm. He could, Gould said when the im- passe was explained to him, avoid { hiring any New York models for his shows. There would be no need of a sit-down strike. The chorines would not enjoy it much anyway. 8o that movement died down in stage number five and gave way to another in two-fourths time. {BISHOP N. S.

And most retail prices are up! > But all this excitement has so far cost Bond customers not one cent extra. True, we spent more for Spring woolens.
