SPORTS. Balky Denver Upsets Big Seven Circuit More Than War Secession Threatened Would Rob League of Best-Paying Gates By LOUDON KELLY. Associated Press Sports Writer. DENVER, Jan. 24—Threatened secession in their own mountainous backyard is doing a lot to take the minds of Big Seven Conference members off the war and its worries. The University of Denver an- nounced on December 23 it would pull out of the conference because of a fight over a home-and-home football arrangement the league adopted in November. Since Denver consistently draws the biggest gates, it's easy to see why the conference would hate to lose it. D. U. authorities argue they can't afford to play as many con- ferences games away from home as the new setup requires and would do better freelancing. The withdrawal is effective with the 1942 football season, but latest reports say the conference, at a spe- cial meeting today, will try to com- promise and keep Denver in the circuit. Spring Slate Not Menaced. So far no chopping of spring | sports schedules has been seriously threatened by war conditions. Only the four schools in the Eastern di- vision—Colorado, Denver, Colorado State and Wyoming—compete in basepall and golf. Colorado State, where Harry Hughes has coached football and track for 30 years, has decided to end classes May 15, two weeks earlier than usual and a week before the conference track and field meet at Salt Lake City. The conference may vote to move up the meet. Most Big Seven schools | are drafting plans for a 3-year col- lege course or even 2'; years, by continuing classes through the sum- mer. They also may vote on freshmen competition in varsity athletics at the spring meeting in May and al- ready are laying heavier stress on intramural competition and physical education. Harry Carlson, director of athletics at Colorado, said: Few Basketers Join Service. “Ever since the emergency began, we have redoubled our efforts to bring every boy in the university under the athletic program. Of the 2,700 men in school, only 500 parti- cipate in intercollegiate athletics and it's just as important to make sports competition of some - sort available to the rest.” So far first-string basket ball play- ers who have joined the armed forces are Jack Putnam, 6-foot-5-inch ‘Wyoming forward from Glendale, Calif.; Johnny Meyers of Colorado State; Clair Anderson of Utah and Bob Hogan of Denver. Hogan, a senior, was an all-conference foot- ball end for twosseasons in a row. Bob Doll and Leason McCloud, sharpshooters of the Colorado team that swept all Eastern engagements this season, and Walt Bergman, Colorado State forward, may be called before the season ends March 7. Utah Loses Court Coach. Bebe Lee, Utah State’s new coach, was called to Navy duty before he saw his team play a conference game. He was succeeded by Bob JlBumet.t. a teammate of Lee at Stan- ord. So far Huck Adelt, Utah's cham- pion touchdown pass tosser, and Vaughn Kimball, quartergack broth- er of Eddie Kimball, Brigham Young’s grid coach, are the only football players with eligibility left who have decided to sign up with Uncle Sam. Co-eds Lose G;IFTutor, -Entering Army at 35 By the Associated Press. ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Jan. 24, —The war has cost co-eds at St. Petersburg Junior College their eourse in golf. Instructor Norman Cameron, 35, has enlisted in the Army and leaves for duty with the coast artillery Monday. He will not be replaced, the institution announced. The course was started two years 8go with the explanation it was ideal for stimulating concentration and besides was an aid to the poise of girl students. Initial White Marlin Entered at Miami By the Associated Prese. MIAMI, Fla., Jan. 2¢.—First entry of a white marlin catch in the $10,- 000 Grealer Miami fishing tourna- ment was made by Howard Jacobs of New York. Jacobs pulled in a 98% pounder. This compares with a 161-pound white marlin landed by L. F. Hopper of Essex Falls, N. J, in the 1938 tournament, still the largest on rec- ord for the annual event.

There were 20 acres of good, walnuts, figs and vine bushes, and lovers. The house was strongly built, with cak beams supporting a living room that covered the entire ground floor. “When will your flancee be back in Hollywood?” the agent asked. “I have another prospective cus- tomer——" “She’s in Colorado now,” said Bruce. “But I know she’ll like the place. I'll pay a deposit now. Hold the property for me.” Bruce was due back in San Diego, but he stopped off at his bungalow to pick up some clothes. And found Livia! “Darling!” He held her close in his arms, kissed her eyes and hair, then put hel arms’ length to look at her. “I've just bought a house for you,” he exulted. “You're coming with me to San Diego, and we’ll be married tomorrow in Mexico.” “Sit down a minute,” Livia said. “I've something to explain.” “About Elizabeth?” he rupted. “How is she?” “No, not about Elizabeth.” “Father?” “No, not your father. It's me.” Bruce waited, his face still glow- ing with the surprise of finding her there. “I've just eome from Monarch Pictures,” Livia said slowly. She waited for him to grasp what she had said, but Bruce was still smiling, and she continued quickly: “I've just signed a contract with them. I'm not supposed to marry for three years.” “You signed that contract?” “We could be married—secretly,” she pleaded. “No one would have to know. Bruce, I love you. But this chance—" “Sure, this chance—okay,” he said suddenly. “Tell me about it.” She explained about Frank MacDonald, the talent scout. And she thought she had won Bruce over because he was silent. But when she said, “We'll get married tomorrow?” Bruce replied gently: “I guess not, Livia. T told you once before I don't like secrets. Have your movie career. I hope it makes you very happy.” He was gone before she could think of anything else to say. * x % % | There were five other girls under stock contract at the Monarch Studio. Anita Clark had been a telephone operator before a talent scout found her in Atlanta. She ‘was dark-haired and pretty in Ori- ental fashion. Doreen Grant had sung in a small night club in De- troit. Wilma Herman once played “Portia” in a little theater in Dallas. Blond, statuesque Bertha Kramer was an ex-model. Verne Arrowhead was a debutante with an indefati- gable mother. The drama coach, Edda Robin- son, a thin woman of 45, had taught some of the biggest names in the business the difficult art of being themselves in front of a camera. ‘When Livia had been a few days under contract, she was called to the publicity department of the studio and interviewed by Jack Tennant. Jack was bald, fat, had small, bright eyes which he closed when he spoke. He smirked ap- preciatively at Livia and motioned her to sit down. “Cigarette?” Livia shook her head. smoke.” “Drink?” “Very little.” “What are your vices then?” “Haven't any.” “Are you engaged—or anything like that?” “In a way I am—and in a way I'm not.” “Make up your mind, sweetie pie.” “Well, I suppose not,” she said finally. “Good, I have just the thing for | you,” he said. Livia was alarmed. “What do you means” she asked. “Don’t worry your pretty head about anything,” he said. After | & few more questions the interview | was over. A Lot of Publicity. | Livia watched the local papers after that, but very little appeared | about her, except in the Gazette, | where she was once again publicized | as the “Charm Girl” And now if | Bruce would only see her or merely answer the telephone, she could be | | happy.

Livia posed in every known gar- ment—from & swimming suit to a fur coat that didn't belong to her. She had to meet trains and put her arms around the necks of visiting male celebrities and attend con- ventions. Soon she was promoted to non- speaking roles in which the girls ‘were supposed to be cut above the extras. It was exacting and tiriny, and the girls must always be fresh, eager, and co-operative.

C., SATURDAY, JANUARY 24, 1942. Uck ham ~~ CHAPTER XVI. “I'd like Miss Clarkson to see it first,” said Bruce to an agent who had shown him a ranch in the San Fernando Valley. Bruce had visited Buck was dead and the last of his five widows had put the estate on the market. fertile land, with oranges, lemons, two magnolia trees that had been one of the advantages of being a stock girl was that the studio pro- vided clothes and tuition. At the end of the first week Livia accepted Bertha Kramer’s offer to share her $40-a-month apartment. Neither of them would have won a prize for good housekeeping. It was fun though to shop in the big market near the apartment and pretend to know the difference be- tween a tender and tough steak. Bertha collected men with the calm acquisitiveness of a stamp col- lector. She was generous and in- vited Livia to take her pick of the male battalion. “I'm not interested in men,” she told Bertha, who laughed inele- gantly and replied: “Nuts.” Livia Gives In. One evening Livia yielded to Bertha’s plea to join her with two men at Victor Hugo's. Livia had spent the afternoon posing for fashion stills in the studio gallery. She was tired and depressed. She had been under stock contract now for five months. There was only another month of her present con- tract. And would they deem her of sufficient importance to take up the option? ‘There had been disturbing rumors of an economy move at the studio. And the first people to go were always the stenographers s.ud the stock girls. Already Anita had been let out, and her empty chair in Edda Robinson’s drama class was a daily reminder of the ephem- eral quality of a film career. “You've been working too hard and playing too little” Bertha said when Livia hesitated, “a little fun will give you a better perspective on life.” So Livia went with Bertha. Their ecorts were two young actors who recently had come to Hollywood from the New York stage. One of them had divorced a famous film star and was enjoying his new free- dom by taking out a different girl every night. The other, with whom he shared a large house on a Bev- erly hilltop, was quiet and intelli- gent. “Let’s dance,” he said to Livia. He was a good dancer, and Livia was enjoying herself—until they bumped into Bruce. Bruce was dancing with a beautiful brunette who was the current sensation of Hollywood. He was formal and po- lite. He introdced her to the star. And Livia introduced him to her | partner. There was a slight pause, then Bruce inquired: “How is the career?” “Wonderful,” Livia said defiantly. “I'm glad,” he replied. The music had stopped, and with a polite in- clination of his head, he steered the expensive-looking girl back to the long table presided over by the Countess Saskia. Livia was miserable and left early. She hired a taxi to take her back alone to the apartment. “You should have stayed. We had fun,” Bertha said when she came in yawning at 2 o'clock. “Say, what's the matter?” “Nothing,” said Livia. She stayed awake wondering how she couid see Bruce. At breakfast the next day Bertha suddenly exclaimed: “Well, I'm damned,” and put down the newspaper she was reading. “Here—look.” She pushed the paper, open at a movie page, across to Livia. Livia reaa aloud: “‘Charles Fordyce has a new| heart interest—Livia Clarkson—and this time it's serious. Intimates predict wedding bells’ “But I don't know him,” Livia said helplessly. The afternoon papers carried the same item. And another column had it the next day. Fordyce was one of the best directors in the business. He had been married four times. His reputation with women was bad. At first Livia was amused. But as the item was repeated, she thought she saw a leer on the face of every one she met. And she worried about Bruce's reaction. “I'm going to stop this,” she told Bertha, and went to see Jack Ten- nant in his office. “I got you some swell breaks, didn't I1?” he grinned at her. Livia controlled her rising anger. She reminded him of the clause in her contract prohibiting marriage. “But this is only a publicity stunt,” he said. “Please stop it,” she begged him. “It's embarrassing—I don't know him.” “I can fix that, t00,” he said. “Heavens, no.” She left him and called Bruce. “Congratulations,” he said coldly | before she could speak. :“But I'm not—" she said. He can do a lot for your career,” | he persisted. | “But it's all a publicity—" “He’ll make you a star. He's| done that to all his other wives,” T've ever known,” stormed Livia. “I hope Fordyce." She slammed the receiver down. (Contlnued tomorrew.)

Eighty-six per cent of confessional clergymen are said to have been called up. The Catholic Universe of London reports that a total of 340 Roman Catholic priests in Germany are now under arrest. Many of these, the newspaper said, have recently been arrested in the Rhineland and in Austria. All priests under 45 years of age are being called for service in the armed forces. In regard to the occupied coun- tries, the Centre of Information Fro Deo, a Catholic group in New York having connections in Europe and Latin America, reported this week that the suppression of the Roman Catholic Church is now most com- plete in four European areas. These were described as: 1. In South Styria, a part of Slo- venia, where 91 per cent of the priests have been deported. No mass or religious marriages are allowed. All monasteries and religious houses have been confiscated. 2. In Poland, where it was said that more than 80 per cent of the priests have been {ll-treated, ban- ished or imprisoned. Confessions in Polish and marriages between Poles are forbidden. 3. In Alsace-Lorraine. Here more than 70 per cent of the clergy have been expelled, and bishops have not been permitted to return to their dioceses. 4. In Luxemburg, where all semi- narians have been imprisoned, all religious houses closed and 70 per cent of the clergy kept away from their parishes. The bishop is said to be a prisoner in his own house. It was also reported this week by the Religious News Service London correspondent that a “hate cam- paign” has been launched against anti-Nazi Dutch Catholics. The more extreme Dutch Nazis, according to| the correspondent, are advocating that Catholics in Holland wear a visible cross or other distinguishing badge, much in the way that Ger- man Jews are forced to wear a spe- cial emblem. New Nazi Church Plan. Details were received this week of 8 Nazi plan to unify the religious life of a number of occupied coun- tries in Eastern Europe and the Bal- kans. The plan calls for the creation of a unified Orthodox Church under Nazi protection and having its pa- triarchate in Breslau. The new church would weld together Russian Orthodox Churches th Paris, Jugo- slavia, Poland, Bohemia, Slovakia, | Hungary, Austria, Roumania, Bul-| | garia, the Ukraine and Whue{ | Russia. The Orthodox Church in Poland, | according to this plan, has been | | selected to form the rallying point for all other autonomous natioral | churches in Europe to bring them | under Nazi control. | The prime instigator of this uni- | fication movement is said to be the| orthodox Archbishop of Badin, Sera- phin, alias Alfred Ladde, described as the son of a German prison gov- ernor in Bavaria, who was educated in Russia and has a Russian wife. He is belleved to have been mixed up in & number of underground in- | trigues in the religious and political and are patting increasing pressure upon religious groups in the remaining neutral countries. This much was evident in reports reaching Religious News Service this week. As regards Germany, a Swiss source reported that the Confessional Church is practically without leaders. It was stated that leading mem- e Most recent action is that of the Swiss Protestant Relief Society of the Confessional Church which ap- pealed to the Reformed Churches of Switzerland to issue a proclamation outlawing anti-Semitism from the church. A few months ago the as- sembly of the Swiss Protestant Church Federation addressed an “urgent appeal” to the Swiss people to remain firmly united in its “will to resist both morally &nd militarily everything which menaces our most valued possessions, especially our freedom of faith, thought and re- sponsible speech.” ‘Woo South American Catholics. The Nazis are now wooing the Catholics of Portugal and of Argen- tina, Brazil and Chile, leading na- tions of South America, according to the Centre of Information Pro Deil. This group reports that many parish priests, editors of Catholic magazines and newspapers and Catholic megazines and newspapers and Catholic action leaders receive regularly a weekly press service from Berlin, Servicie Europee de Infor- mation Cultural. “Articles and news items, in ex- sellent Spanish, avoiding open prop- aganda, seek in many subtle ways to create the strong impression that Nazi Germany is in the vanguard of 20th century progress. This service is presented as coming from German Catholics who wish to become better acquainted with South American Catholics.” While at least one Cath- olic newspaper in Buenos Aires uses this service, as do some parish mag- azines, the C. I. P. states that most Catholic editors, “not so gullible,” reject the Nazi handouts. Canterbury Resigns. ‘The resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury, announced this week, has been expected for some time. The Archbishop of York is promi- nently mentioned as his successor, but other possible candidates are the Bishop of Winchester and the Bishop of Chichester. The Archbishop of York is well known to American church leaders through his active interest in the movement for closer co-operation among the non-Roman Catholic churches of the world It is believed that his appointment as head of the Church of England would be wel- comed by American church leaders and would help bring the British and American churches closer together. In announcing his resignation, the Archbishop of Canterbury said he was relinquishing his office to make way for “some one younger in years and more vigorous in mind and spirit, who will be better able to prepare now for post-war pians.” Observers recall in this connection that the Archbishop of York has been one of the outstanding :eaders in British church movements which have formulated the principles upon which the post-war social order should be based. He was the moving figure in the now-famous Malvern Conference which initiated discus- slon of post-war principles in churches throughout the world. He has also just written the introduc- tion to a new report on economic and industrial problems issued by the Industrial Christian Fellowship sphere. There is some doubt es m‘ whether his episcopal consecration and even his ordination has ever | | been recognized by the proper ortho- | | dox officials. | Meanwhile, evidence mounted that | the churches of the two leading Eu- | | ropean neutrals—Switzerland and | Nazi pressure, Neutrals Resist Pressure. For the first time in history the Swedish Parliament and the Church Assembly of the Swedish Lutheran Church recently met in joint ses- sion and issued an appeal to the| Swedish nation to reaffirm its love of freedom and to stand united in support of Christian civilization. In 8 joint proclamation to the people of Sweden, personally signed by rep- resentatives of both church and state, the participants declared that “Sweden’s line is the Christian line.” In Switzerland, the churches have taken a firm stand in defense of freedom and Christian principles. —_— e Tnees @hrifiti;n Srience Christian Science CHURCHES OF CHRIST SCIENTIST Branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ Scientist, Boston, Mass.
