Held As Too High
By Itohltlii Coons
HOLLYWOOD Aspersions
been cast on the fnlr face of movie
land before, but Philip Merlvnlo of
the stage Is due to rank high among
the aspersion-casters' of all time.
Ho Is stern and ho glowers as he
men t tons the name of Hollywood.
Come October, when he will be free
of his contract, and he will be gone
from these parts, he says, forever.
He has been here since February,
and to date has not made a picture.
"For two years," he storms quietly
and with dignity, of courso "I
fought against coming Into pictures,
and last year I finally allowed- my-'
self, against my better Judgment, to
be lured to Hollywood.
Endurance Contest
"What have I done since? Noth
ing. I am waiting. Watting. They
hope, I suspect, that X will become
tired nnd commit suicide. But I have
disappointed them, and am- still
watting. They tell me I am to play
In 'As Husband Go.' I am not keen
on doing It, but If I do I will bo able
to leave the sooner. Therefore Z wel
come it. The sooner I can escape
from this terrible place the less un
happy I shall be. I have tried to set
tle my contract, but we have been
unable to come to terms. So hero I
am. To save my sanity I havo usedi
the time writing a couple of plays.
They are not much, but at least they
kept me from going crazy."
Another "sanity-saver" Is his star
ring role for George K. Arthur In
"A Tale of -Two Cities" a play he
has considered, he says, taking to
New York in the winter.
By now you will have gathered,
as I did, that Mr. Merivale does not
like Hollywood. Ho does not like pic
ture, either, except for certain of
Charles Chaplin's. He goes to films,
he says, only when he is "caught In
the rain and they offor shelter." 1
Aside from a conviction that the
screen suffers from "Infantilism"
and has no stylo whatever "style
being the essence .of art" Morlvale
has no personal grievance against it,
except that it keeps him here. "And
after seeing my test," ho declares,
"I don't know whyl"
Merivale, one of Broadway's best
known actors, star recently of "Death
takes a Holiday" anfl "Cynara," Is
here on a two-nlctur rnntriict. wlt.1.
I Fox. He was originally slated to star
in "The Passing of tho Thtrdi Floor
havo!Back" but tho idea was discarded,
along with several others for him.

PELICAN FACING
FATE OF EXTINCT
AUK AND PIGEON
WASHINGTON, W) The fate of
that "queer old bird, the pelican,
whose beak holds more than his belly
can," Is worrying Uncle Sam. '
There is real danger, the national
park service has discovered, that the
ungainly, pouch-beaked bird may
follow the great auk and the pas
eon go r pigeon to extinction. 1
' A survey of the pelican population
Just completed by the pnrk sorvlco's
wild life division shows that there
are probably fewef than 50,000 of the
white pelican species loft In tho
United States and Canada. Once tho
birds Wero ' countless throughout
North America. ' ?l t ,
Generally Unpopular,'" ondi with
every man's hand against it, the un
fortunate pelican is losing out in the
struggle against the advance of civil
ization. Tho park service is trying
to save It by protecting its breeding
grounds not only rronx hunters but,
equally as Important; from mere vis
itors, who disturb the birds to such
an extent they break and abandon
their eggs.
The pelican Is one of the champion
fish enters of the United States, and
for that' reason has been ruthlessly
slaughtered in the post. Fishermen
believed the. birds Ayere seriously de
pleting the supply 'of; 'fish.-
A good-sized colony of pelicans may
contmme as much as 4000 tons of
fish in a season, the park service
points out, but these, they say, for
the most part are fish that are4 value
less as human food, and In some
cases are fish that cause real damage
to foodt fish.

Do you know this? An average size tirq goes round
395 times every, minute at only 35 miles an hour!
Think, what happens when you drive at tlis speed or
faster ! Friction develops scorching hcatj inside your
tires! In many tires other than Riversides this heat sepa
rates cords! It weakens the tire, forms internal hlistcrs!
When you hit a rock or a bump . . . BANG! A blowout!
who can Hgive His
a Vacation this Summer. . .
YOU can't quite manage it this
year? And she's being a good sport
about it? You be a good sport, too!
Invest a little money to keep her
kitchen cool and comforta.ble -.to
lighten her cleaning tasks, to free her
for hours of outdoor fun, j ..., , j
Install an electric range. Completely in
sulated. No air currents to flow through
the oven and carry heat into the room.
The heat stays in the range. Cook and
kitchen stay cool. The electric range is
clean. No blackened pots or pans to scrub.
Best of all, electric cookery is truly auto
matic. Your wife prepares dinner in the
morning, pops it in the oven, sets the
automatic control. Then she's free. For
resting or reading, golf or tennis, bridge
or shopping. .. . '. s .
Doesn't that sound like a sensible solu
tion to this year's vacation problem?
Won't you let us demonstrate the cool
less, the cleanliness, and convenience of
the electric range? .'
Down payment is low. Actual figures
prove operating costs in your own neigh-,
borhood less than you probably think.
You need the added protection Riversides, give you!
Riversides' Colds; the( heart the tirer-are made, iron)
extra strong, long staple, premium cotton. .Every cord
in every ply is dipped in LATEX 100 pure, liquid,
virgin rubber. This welds the cords into a .super strong
unit ! It gives Riversides the strongest tire carcass made I
It prevents cord separation . . . the cause of blowouts!
Why We Save
You Money
Of course Riversides are made
in one tof America's largest
and best tire factories. BUT
they come.direclt to, us-ri-minus
the manufacturer's selling and
g en e r a 1 ; overhead expense.
That's a savjng. ,Tlie secqnd
saying comes from Wards low
cost method of f distribution.
T h e 8 e .two , reasons expjain
why we sell high quality tires
for less." It's .simple to figure
out for yourself why River
sides, are better in quality,
mileage, and safety than any
other tire at the same price.
