QoesUeas and Answers
F. L. writes that her azaleas
grow well but do not bloom.
Wants to know reason.
Ans.: : With that meager infor
mation, I could only venture to
guess. Perhaps the bushes were
set too deep. This will frequent
ly prevent bloom. Professional
azalea growers will tell you that
the bushes should be aet no deep
er than they were growing in the
nursery row. If the soil is too
stiff, blooming will not be plen
tiful. Plenty of leaf mold, peat
moss or decaying leaves should
be used as a mulch.
C. A. L. writes that her tulips.
pianiea last year, Tailed to come
up this year although they bloom
ed very well last, year and she
had been told they were hardy
nere. -
Ans.: Perhaps moles are the
answer. Moles, seem exeeDtionallr
fond of tulips. Of .course we are
told it isn't the moles that eat the
bulbs, but the mice which follow
in the runs provided by the moles.
But I trust neither moles nor mice.
It is usually safest to lift the tu
lips, remove the offsets and store
until October and then replant.
u you can, plant the bulbs in wire
mesh baskets buried in the gar-
aen. ims win tend to keep the
rodents from destroying the bulbs.
T.AJL. asks if aucuba will grow
In the shade or If It' must have
sun.'., .
Ans.: Aucuba is usually listed
as .growing in either sun or ahade
and will grow quite well In a sha
dy spot. Mexican orange grows
well in such a location also but
fail to ,bloom. Our native salal
makes an attractive shady-spot
low shrub.

Stock Average
Hits Record
Low for Year
NEW YORK, April l-VPi-
Stocks this week suffered their
sharpest relapse in better than six
months and today hit a new aver
age low since early December in
the broadest and livelist Saturday
market since March 8.
Selling in the final. session, rel
atively heavy for an. Interval,
dropped , leading steels, motors,
rails and industrials fractions to 2
points.' From Monday oh, with the
exception of a slight recovery
Thursday, liquidation was blamed
mainly on the stalemated tele
phone strike, chances of a walk
out in the steel field at the end of
April, generally- confusing wage
price situations and doubts re
carding business prospects and
tax relief.
Extreme declines were reduced
in the majority of cases at the
close. Transfers of 630,000 shares
compared with 270,000 a week
ago. For the six sessions the ag
gregate was 4,633,910, largest
since the period concluded March
IS. In the preceding 5-day week
the total was 3,120,490, a low
since October 14, 1944.
' The- Associated Press 60-rtock
composite was off .7 of a point
at 62.7 on the day, a bottom since-
last December 3. For the week
the drop was 2.4 points, which
was the widest retreat since the
period of last September 20. Both
the rail and utility indexes re
corded new lows.
Ten f Fred Astaires9 Cavort in

Just to prove that the movie camera is quicker than Xhe eye.
Paramount introduces a new wrinkle In trick photogrsphy in Irving
Berlin's "Blue Skies," the lively Technicolor musical bow playing
at the Elsinore Theatre. The picture, featuring 33 Berlin tunes, star
Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire and Joan Caulfield.
In the film Astaire does a super-fast tap dance to the tune of
Irving Berlin's "Futtln' on the
Ttitz." Clad in top hat, cutaway.
striped, trousers and white spats,
the famous hoofer twirls through
the first half of the dance all in
one. piece. Then he seemingly
splits into ten Astaires, each tap
ping like mad and twirling tiny
editions of that famous Astaire
cane.
Nat Dene With Mirrors
And." states Director Stuart
Heisler, "we didn't do it with
mirrors. It was done -by means
of a variation of the split-screen
process, but Just how is going to
remain Paramount's secret"
Gordon Jennings, Paramount's
special effects expert, explains
that he "split the screen" nine
times to accomplish, the feat of
showing the star dancing in front
f a chorus of nine identically
dancing selves. Ordinarily the
multiple illusion effect is achiev
ed through the use of a series of
mirrors and the simple split
screen technique is employed in
showing an actor playing a twin
role.

'Astaires . very closely," Heisler
said, "you will notice slight dif
ferences in the action which
proves" that mirrors weren't used.
As a matter of fact; the type of
set used and the effect desired
made it impossible to use the mir
ror method.
Other Technlqaes Used
This new secret split screen
technique wasn't the only inno
vation in movie making used by
the Paramount experts working
on "Blue Skies. Art Director Hal
Pereira devised a new system of
making the set models of luctte
instead of the usual wood and
paper mache. Because the hicite is
transparent, Pereiraj Director
Heisler and the photography di
rectors, Charles Lang, jr., and
William Snyder, were able to
study every camera angle and
lighting problem with ease, thus
saving days of production time.
"The costs run toi about $4,000
an hour when a picture like 'Blue,
Skies" Is in full production," Pro
ducer Sol. S. Sieget said, "so it
can easily be figured out just how
much money was saved.
So successful were these lucite
model sets thaftthey will be stan
dard from now' on for every im-
4Xrtant picture at Paramount.

Grain Market
On Downswing
CHICAGO, April 12H43)-Corn
paced a moderate downtourn in
grains today. Smaller June- ex
port allocations, weakness in
cash wheat and a slump in -securities
combirled to exert a depres
sing influence on futures contracts.
Deferred corn futures lost more
than 2 cents. This was the weak
est grain, and the selling con
tinued to be based mainly on April
1 farm stocks. Supplies of 1,295,
000,000 bushels were, with 4he
single exception of 1943. the larg
est on record for the date.
Final prices were, somewhat
above the day's lows as a rally
developed in the last half hour.
Wheat finished unchanged to li
lower. May $2.57-S2.S7H, corn
was 2xi lower to V4 higher. May
$1.754-1.76. and oats were i
