PAGE EIGHT Prices Elevated For Hired Hands l(i Film World By Virginia MacFherson (United Prtms Hollywood CorrecpunJcnt) Hollywood, Jan. 21 Mi You think the cost of, living is high? Then be glad you're not a hired hand In the movies. Hollywood merchants have- a .double, price standard for those guys and gals. Let word get around you're con nected with some studio and zow ie the tariff goes up. And the big-money stars aren't the only ones who get nicked. The little guys get it, too. It works something like this: Joe Schultz, a mechanic at Al's garage, goes shopping for an end table. He finds the thing the mis sus has been yelling for to add a little class to the family parlor. For Joe, the price is $25. Price Goes Up But if Harry Schultz an assis tant director, wants the same table and the salesman knows what his job is there's a quick double-play with price tags and Harry's out $125. Our cleaner works the same way. He'll take the spots out of our new ballerina suit for $2.75. That includes hand-finishing all the way. "But for my movie customers," he shrugs, "well . . . it'd be any where from $10 to S30. You gotta charge what the traffic will bear." Doctors and dentists have it even better. Dana Andrews' first baby cost him about $200. That was before he got to be a movie heart-throb. His fourth offspring, he figures. Is gonna set him back a cool $3,000. ' Most of the big names write it off to the expense of being a star. But Actor Dane Clark thinks it's a dirty shame. Especially for the little guvs. Pay Not All High "It's not fair for stars and di rectors and producers to have to pay 20 times what an article is worth," he growled. "But at least with a couple hundred thousand a year they can make out. "But the trouble is, people on the outside think everyone con nected with the movies Is sprink led with gold dust. If you work Inside these sacred halls, presto you're loaded with dough." And it might surprise the fur niture dealers and the cleaners and the doctors, Clark says, to know that many a studio 1ob paws no more than $35 or $40 or $50 . a week. "Even the guys who make $175 a week aren't loaded," he pointed out. "Because movie work Isn't steady. Usually you only Ret those paychecks about 25 or 30 weeks out of the 52. About 80 per cent of the movie workers earn less than $0,000 a year." 87 Mines Found , In Pacific Lanes ' Seattle, Jan. 21 (IB Eighty seven mines were reported in the sea lanes of the North Pacific coast during 1947 and 57 are still at large menacing ships in Ore gon, Washington, British Col umbia and Alaska waters, the 13th coast guard district reported here Tuesday. Thirty of the mines were locat ed and destroyed by coast guard and navy personnel. But the re mainder are believed to be still afloat somewhere In the Pacific coast waters, coast guard offi cials said. According to the coast guard, the number of mines reported has taken a sharp drop this month with only three being sighted. Two of these were destroyed, they said. menace Not Over Howevei-i the officials warned that this does not mean that the mine menace is over In Pacific coast waters. More than 35.000 mines were planted by the Jap anese navy during the war, and many of them have never been found. Coast guard officials said they may be expected to break loose from their rusted moorings in storms and drift with the cur rents to the west coast of the American continent for many years to come. 1033 Brooks St. Phone 274 WKINGFKS, ROLLS ft PARTS I (lit A IX MAKKS Buy Where You Uut Service Maytag Appliance Store KLMEU HUDSON FUNNY BUSINESS "The zookeeper put the donkey ears on him he's a staunch Democrat!" .
