V Itll OK PARTIES LONDON WV-The prince of Wales is not' likely to become a wail flow er thrbugh being a back number. Recently he has added to his parlor accomplishments the trick of, stand ing on his liead. ; It is done 'only when he Is in a cir cle of, Intimates, from whom has come the information tjiat he does It rather well. ' Removed Qf The Vatican VATICAN CITY W The Venus of the Vatican has lost t,he" bronze skirt she wore for 125 years.' The marble life-size figure Is known as the Gnldian Venus, an early Ro man copy of a work by the Immor tal Greek sculptor Praxiteles. ' When It was brought to the Vatl cart galleries more than a century ago the theti1 pope commissioned the Danish sculptor, Albert' Tlforwaidsen, to mould bronze draperies to cover tlie lower half of the statue, down . to 'the feet. : " , From then until a few days ago the muater piece occupied one or the most prominent points In the Vatl . can galleries at the head of the steps near the entrance to the EtniB cun museum. This position was sim ilar to that assigned to the Venus di Mllo in the Louvre museum at Paris. ' Here millions of tourists have viewed the goddess of love most mod estly garbed. Many of them, how ever, puzzled over what seemed a garment of painted tin. Artists and sculptors for genera tions have complained bitterly against the bronze clothing. Finally their pleas were successful. Nothing was said about iti but one day recently the skirt was taken1 away. ' But, . her skirt gone, the beauti ful goddess lost her prominent posi tion. She now presides over a small room called the " "Cabinet of the MaBks," because of a mosaic taken from Hadrian's Villa, depicting Greek masks and fitted Into the center of the floor. 1 Tho Vatican gallery authorities, however, have made another conces sion. They have, taken from the storeroom a group by Praxiteles, "The i Three 'Graces,1' half-life-size, and ' placed It alongside tho Gnldian Ve nus. This 1b composed of three initios. " ' J at Last Party By bobbin toons HOLLYWOOD The desparatlon of hungry men eager to risk thelij lives for a few dollars and a meal has thrown movie stunt men Into com petition as fierce as it Is pitiable.' It has also retarded schemes for an organisation in the perilous craft to standard lee wages and assure com petence, ' thus lessening danger ' to life, ' ' ' " ' ; . Harvey Parry, who for several years has jumped from cl'lffsj wrecked auto mobiles, walked airplane wlngB, dan gled from skyscraper roofs or taken beatings from film heroes in prize rings, was called the' other day to skid ah automobile . for a movie scene. When he reported he found five 'other men waiting In line for he assignment. " ' "One poor fellow begged for the chance, asking only a' meal' and five dollars," says Harvey.' "The regular price for the Job is $60, and tills man never had skidded a 'car and had no idea' how we protect o6r selves. 1 ' ! Want Llreiwea - ' "When I first starred stunting, I got $1500 for walking the wings and taking a parachute Jump. 'Now the price Is down almost to the ground." Parry and othei leading stunt mien advocate licensing of their profession, not only to maintain standards ' of pay, but to safeguard the desperate from their own folly. The times, however, veto the idea. ' Incidentally, from Parry I 'learned a few odd fodts about movie prize fights, in "Winner Take All" you'll seo James Cagney fighting for tlie "title" with Parry, and Parry will ap pear to be the bigger of he two. The first day they work on the fight scenes Parry weighed In At 139 and Cagney at 152. (The second day Par ry was the same, but Cagney had lost eight 'pounds. ' So they' really work, these movie fighters. Tricks Of The Camera How docs It happen that a man, actually smaller, looks bigger on the screen than his adversary? It's oil, partly, says Parry, oil that makes the muscles stand out photographically and, of course, camera trickery. ' ' Fdr once the movies failed to-bite when a beat-selling novel was of fered as bait by a haughty author. Tho scornful Utoratus demanded $00, 000 for his work, which even movie executives; usually impressed by sales reports, oould seo would make only a fair picture. The author, refusing to compromise, hied himself and his book to England for celluloid em balming. And the studio Is Just as happy. French Completing Plane For flight Into Stratosphere BILLANCQURT, Franco (P) Franco hopes within six months to enter the raco for the conquest of tho strato sphere. In tho Farman airplane workB, on the banks of the Seine, behind bolt ed doors and pledged to secrecy, en gineers and skilled Workmen are put ting the finishing touches to a huge 500 hi p. monoplane. ' " Goal Is flO.000 Feet When it Ib completed, tho strato spheric airplane will bo taken to tho airport of Toussus-le -Noble where the first! test flight will take place. It will be followed by other experimen tal flights aimed at attaining a height of 50,000 feet above the earth's sur face, A feature of the now aircraft Is Its enormous wing area and Its all metal air-tight cabin which can ac commodate three to four persons. Its circular conntng-tower sur mounting the air-tight cabin gives it the shape of a submarine. Insidd the cylindrical cabin Is an' Instrument board and a doftMi gadgets all sug gesting the interior of d submarine. Whig Hurrare tinnrmnu In building ah enormous wing sur face, the designers had in mind the fact that In the thin stratosphere where the propeller and Wings are much less effective than at heights of 6000 to 10,000 feet a good deal morb lifting power may be required for successful operation. If all the hopes of the designers are fulfilled, the machine, when at an altitude of 48,000 to 60.000 feet, will develop a speed of 480 miles on hour, which will bring New York within eight hours of Paris.' ' Take-Off lUffirulty Hecn It Is pointed out that owing to its cxcesslvo load It IS equipped ' with five radiators-1 the new Farman may experience some difficulty In taking off. The ascension to the thin cold areas Is not expected to begin before six months, as the new machine will bo subjected' to various tests and al terations made accord l ngly . STHIPH PIN AM.
