nights' this week to put the

they had taken as their project
in the volunteer work of erect

Chester A. Keirsey directed the

Miss Robbins, a singer, gave
up night club jobs so she could
go out with her man.
She gave up contracts with
New York model agencies and
Hollywood producers to stay by
his side.

when she quit to wait around

The starlet who doesn't care
about stardom is making a
comeback now in 20th Century
Fox's "Oh You Beautiful Doll."
That's the studio where she was
working when she gave it all up
to stay with her husband, Lt
Bob Olson.
Miss Robbins met Olson at a
school dance in Chicago when
she was 14 and he 16. Two
years later, when she was a sue
cessful model and he a college
student, they got engaged with
the understanding they would
nt get married until he was
graduated.
Powers and Conover were al
ready calling Miss Robbins to
New York. She wrote and said
no, thanks. She wouldn't dream
of leaving Chicago.
When Gale was 18 she made
her singing, debut at Ernie By
field's Pump room. She got of
fers to sing at the Waldorf in
New York and at swank night
spots in Florida. She said no
She sang with such bands a:
Jan Garber's and the late Hal
Kemp's, but only when they vis-

And then she- dropped singing
with bands entriely.

she and Olsen were married at

"When I came back," she re
called, "Mr. Zanuck told me he
was going to star me in 'Green

Grable and Alice Faye were
having babies. And he was go

She got fired and went to be
with her husband until he was
sent overseas.
Since the war, the Olson fam

Olson has made a half dozen

"I thought we were all set,

LANGUAGE CHANGES
Chinese Language Soon to
Be Dominent in Shanghai
By FRED HAIUPSON
Shanghai, June 27 W) English for years the secondary
language of this great port city is fast falling into disfavor now
that the communists rule Shanghai.
The stress now is on Chinese. Foreigners who have lived in
Shanghai for years without learning any more Chinese than ne
cessary to direct a ricksha boy.i
are now feeling the lack.
Some Chinese firms whose
businesses were mainly interna
tional trading, once used English
almost exclusively. It is startling
nowadays to telephone such a
firm and get a reply in Chinese.
This makes it necessary to ob
tain an interpreter to carry on a
conversation with a Chinese
manager with whom you have
spoken English for years. '
Letters to government agen
cies, and in some cases even to
private companies, must now be
written in Chinese, despite the
fact that many of these agencies
and companies are mainly con
cerned with foreigners and have
staffs that can read and speak
English better than Chinese. If
you insist on writing in English
your letter must be accompanied
by a Chinese translation. To in
sure delivery, the address must
be in Chinese.
Use of Chinese in Shanghai is
particularly difficult, because
the Shanghai dialect is so differ
ent from Mandarin, the official
language.
There are some Chinese of
considerable education who can
read and write two or three for
eign languages but cannot write
their own.
Shortly after the communists
took over, students at the American-endowed
St. John's univer
sity demanded that "English be
banned from the curriculum."
Salem Delegation
Overcomes Opposition
After strong opposition had
been overcome, a resolution
presented by the Salem delega
tion at the Oregon State Fed
eration of Labor convention In
Eugene for liberalizing social
security was adopted.
The resolution went on the
floor with an unfavorable com
mittee recommendation.
It favors, said F. J. A. Boeh-
ringer, district representative on
the executive board, 5 per cent
contributions by both employer
and employe.
