Editorial Correspondence
HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Jan. 28. Nothing has changed more
in the movies than the directors. Our first visit many years
ago, all the directors wore riding breeches, carried sticks, and
yelled their commands thru megaphones very dynamio and
very tough. There were no doubt exceptions at that time but
that was the role, the style the approved manner, i
Nothing like that now. No riding togs, no megaphones, no
yelling, no cursing. The directors we have seen are the quietest
most unassuming individuals on the lot.' They do their work,
GENTLY, speaking to the various principals almost in whispers.
If any yelling or temperamental outbursts' are required, the
assistant does it.
Had a little chat with Norman McCloud, who hag directed
the Marx Brothers in all their films, and is now directing Alison
Skipworth, the "Woman Eacketeer," in a comedy, the "Woman
Professional." He thinks that's a terrible title so it may be
changed, but that is what it goes by now.
They were shooting a scene on a transatlantic liner at sea
Miss Skipworth just coming out of the steerage companionway
although a titled person, she had met with reverses and
invited to visit her brother in America had to travel third class.
Just as she steps on deck she meets another "lady" from
England, travelling FIRST class, and the dialogue that ensues
is very' amusing, Alison bluffing her way through that she is
travelling steerage to see how the "other half lives" slum
ming as it were, "don't you know." ,
Miss Skipworth never missed a trick, but the other lady
wasn't so hot. Did Director McCloud yell at her, and pull his
hair, and let out a few choice curses t He did NOT. He took
the lady gently by the arm, did a bit of pantomime, said a word
or two (too sotto voice for us to hear), and they tried it again.
Not so good this time. A few more quiet words, and another
try. So it went on, for half an hour or so. A doctor talking
to a very sick and very rich woman patient could not have
been more considerate and restrained. But in the end he got
just what he wanted. " ' ':
Judging by what we saw last year and this that is the
approved director technique now and needless to say it is as
great an improvement over the old technique, as present pic
tures are over their ancient and honorable predecessors. The
modern director is neither a prima donna nor a Simon Legree
he is an artist, endeavoring to get the best possible results with
his material, and he trpats his workers with ovary consideration
for that method brings the best results.
Showing how sensitive these modern recording machines are
an airplane flew over the set
while (ho scene was being taken.
everything started again, after
had died down. "That's a plane from R. K. 0." said the sound
machine man, and everybody laughed. "They worked a motor
horn on us yestferday, about this time."
McCloud would never be taken for a direotor, he is young,
good looking, dresBed in a becoming and inconspicuous business
suit, bare headed, a muffler about his neck. Nothing flashy or
theatrical about him. Would pass anywhere as a successful
and prosperous business or professional man. .
"I call this the pneumonia set" he said, "this deck is over
a big swimming tank they drained out the water, but it is wet
and makes everything damp and
"I hove a now pioture for the
it right over there on the street eurb, at the luncheon hour one
day, while wa were shooting "Horse Feathers." Groucho Marx
is a president of some imaginary Republio, and Cheko is a
peanut vender. The whistle on his peanut wagon so annoys the
president, that he hauls Cheko in and makes him his secretary
of state. It's nice and foolish
well. Yes, the Marx brothers
who is a naturnl born comedian,
off sparks all the time. I never
me, after it is finished I alwayB see where it could be improved.
Roland Young is in this picture, he hasn't been well and I
had to take him first, and only could have him three days. I
realize now, that I could have improved that part of the pioture
very much had I known wjiat I know now. It's always that
way. We start with a mere outline, then the thing grown, and
we add here and out there as the thing progresses. As a matter
of faot my work only begins when I get through here. I spend
nights outlining the work for the next doy but it's fascinating
work. I like it" (certainly not the popular idea of a director's
"NIGHT WORK.")
"From Hell to Heaven", a race traok comedy with Jack
Oakie as a radio crooner and announcer, was over on another
lot. Jack was before the mike, delivering the typical "blah
blah" of the professional announcer, "This is your favorite
announcer, folks, broadcasting the great Blah Blah Handicap
from the Blah Blah race track Jack Bayne, easy to remember
Jack Bayne 'Remember the Maine.'" Jack "just a minute
folks, something the matter with the air" wields an atomizer,
spraying his tonsils thoroughly, clears his throat and
sing "When the Moon Comes Over" in a throaty, inarticulate
wheeze "NO SINGING!" shouta the race track manager,
Jack claps both hands over the mike and looks very much hurt,
Jack Oakie is an extemporizer, they shot his scene four or
five times and his lines were different every time. Once he
pattered on about "looking over this sea of faces reminds me
of that little cabin down in old Kaintuck." Everyone laughed,
inoluding the director, and one of the extra girls, on a camp
stool, asleep with her head in her hands, woke up and blinked
pathetically.
Jack came tip and was introduced, talking all the time,
"yes they called it from Heaven to Hell, might as well call it
the "Ski Jump" yes, the wife is recovering from the flu,
much better, in fact almost normal" and Jack squared off
and did some shadow moxing o show what normalcy meant.
The youngest member laughed heartily at that A perfect
dynamo of excess energy which if you think about it, invari
ably accompanies good comedy work.
Returning to the main offices, ran into an interesting tab
leaux in the patio. Mr. Lubitz whom we regard as the master
director of them all certainly in smart light comedy had just
returned from a vacation and met Carole Lombard coming down
the steps. -
They rushed at each other like long lost lovers, arms around
about half a mile in the air,
Everything had to stop, and
the faint sound of the engine
chilly.
Marx Brothers, we outlined
and I' think will go over very
help me, particularly Grouch,
and has a brain that is shooting
make a pioture that satisfies
the neck, a smack and what
My Dearl My Darlingl etc., etc. Mr. Lubitz "broke" first and
taking the beautiful Carole by the arm, walked slowly with her,
immediately talking business and very earnestly.
"Now that scene is good" we heard him say, "but my Dear,
don't overdo it don't mug it, just be your sweet and simple
self now remember."
"You are telling ME" laughed Carole, and she blew him a
kiss, scampering off to her escort a young nice looking chap,
took his arm, and they continued down the walk.
"The two most popular people in all Hollywood" said. Mrs.
Wood, "everybody simply LOVES them. We would all get
down on our knees to "Luby" any time he crooked a finger
so kind and generous and clever and Carole simply a darling.
So full of the joy of life, such fun, and true blue. No her hus
band, William Powell isn't here, doesn't work for us anymore
Oh, yes, they are quite devoted but Carole, she just loves
the whole world and everyone in it, and everyone loves her.
If w can't find anyone here, we always look in Carole's dressing
room. She can never be alone but she loves it."
. Saw Jackie Searle and his Mama. He is a sweet looking kid
and she a very sensible looking woman. He takes sissy parts
in kid films, with Jackie Cooper and others, but he doesn't mind
that tho he is as manly bb they make them. Not a bit spoiled
or,"stagey" just a simple kid and his money all goes into
a trust fund, for his education. Smart too at the head of his
class in the movie school. Sounds like press agent dope and
it is. But after seeing him, believe it or not WE DOl

WATER IN THE LUNGS.
: The common belief la that the
cause of death In drowning 1b the
filling of the lungs with, water.
A a rule little
water la found In
the lungs of
person who has
died by drown
ing. " '
The most ctaar-
acterlstle finding
In a drowning
case is the pres
ence of blood-
tinged mucous
froth in the
windpipe and
overdistension or congestion of the
blood vessels of the lining of the
windpipe. The lungs are usually con
gested, too, and perhaps more sodden
than they should, be, but they float
In water and if the air spaces oon
tain any liquid at all It Is only a
spoonful or two, not enough to shut
out air.
4 What, then, oauses death In drown
ing? There are several theories to ac
count for It. Each of them may apply
In certain Instances.
1. Concussion from violent contact
of the chest, head or back with the
surface of the water, or with banks
of a stream or with rocks or the bot
tom of a shallow pool.
a. Exhaustion from prolonged vio
lent effort to keep afloat or to swim
against current, wind or wave.
S. Cerebral congestion from effus
slon of serum or blood In the brain
during tine first struggles for air.
4. Apoplexy (hemorrhage into the
brain) from the same cause.
0. Syncope (fainting, shock) from
fright.
5. Few physicians now give much
credence to the hypothetical "cramp."
The only "cramp" of which we know
Is that which occurs after prolonged
efforts In very cold water, and this
loss of power In the muscles Is only
partial, scarcely sufficient to account
for drowning.
7. Suffocation from spasm of
larynx produced by choking on some
water.
8. Air embolism bubbles of air oc
cluding pulmonary arteries or the
coronary artery (that supplies the
heart wall), the air being forced into!
the circulation either by violent con
vulsive efforts or, In some Instances,
by sudden compression of the lungs,
as by a belly splash dive or by a hard
blow over the solar plexls.
Recently Dr. Peter Karoo vl ten,
professor of physiology In Springfield
college found by experiment that rats
Invariably have water in the lungs
when drowned. !

Editorial Comment
"Breakdown" In Jackson.
There has come about, says Editor
L. A. Banks of the Medford Dally
News, a "complete breakdown of law
and order in Jackson county." Shall
we expect then, to see a long parade
of weeping and broken refugees
streaming In from the war-torn
southland?
Nonsense. There Is no more break
down of law and order In Jackson
county than there is in Douglas
county or In Lane or Multnomah.
What HAS broken down is Editor
Banks' sense of responsibility for the
genera welfare of his community. A
fruit-grower turned newspaperman.
he appears to have gone utterly wild
with his new found power the
"power of the press."
Agitation of any kind, even craey
wild agitation, gathers some sort of
following, but the Banks' "revolu
tionary" forces are very small. How
ever, as a small pebble cast Into a
large quiet pool makes ripples that
reach ever wider until they lap the
very shore, this trouble in Jackson
county, consisting In the main of
on man and some printing ma
chinery. Is far reaching in its effect.
People all over the northwest tri
aware that there is trouble in Jack
son county. They know but little
about It and may be inclined to be
lieve that chaos reigns there.
This has ft depressing effect upon
property values. Business of all kinds
naturally suffers. And what good

been assumed that the absence of
any water In the lungs Is evidence
against death by drowning, but In
view of the agreement of numerous
authorities that no water Is found In
the lungs In many unquestioned cases
of drowning this old principle has
lost weight.
In my opinion It Is Important to
permit drainage of the thick frothy
fluid from nose and moubb while
resuscitation Is being applied In a
drowning case, by placing the victim
In the position Schaefer alvlses and
NOT In the funny Red Cross position.
Anyway there la no good reason for
putting anything under the victim's
chin, face or forehead when applying
prone-pressure respiration.

Soda for Cramps

Answer Thank you. A number of
readers have reported similar relief,
usually from smaller doses, say 10 to
20 grains (less than half a teaspoon
ful) of sodium bicarbonate (baking
soda.)
Long, Long Way to Qutet Worry.
Since rest appreciation for fine ad
vice In your booklet, '"The Constipa

about my condition, and had tried
everything in hope of finding a rem
edy. Had always been told that a
tau person Is naturally constipated.
I am six feet four inches In height.
But thanks to your advice I am no
longer troubled In that way. A. K.
AnswerThe physio habit Is psy
chological rather than physical. If
there were some way to enlighten all
the wlrseacre victims of -the hab'.t
concerning the elementary physiology
of digestion, the correction of the bad
habit would be quite simple. But
try and teach a wiseacre anything
that doesnt Jibe with the bunk le
has already learned. Any corres

The Name "Medford"
To the Editor of the Oregonlan:
In the Monday issue of the Oregonlan.
January 23, in the "Those Who Come
and Go" column, I read the statement
that Medford, Ore., was named In
honor cf Medford, Mass. This Is a
mistake, as In the fall of 1883 I heard
the discussion between railroad of
ficials and Jacksonville people as to
ths name to be given the new town,
being located in the middle of the
valley. They decided on Medford,
meaning "the middle fort." The
Jacksonville people, being somewhat
Jealous of the new town so near,
called it "Chaparrel City' for some
time, as the location was overgrown
with the shrub.
EMU PETL.
Ashland, Ore.
Naming Medford.
Elsewhere on this page Is a letter
from Emil Pell, Ashland, Ore., mer
chant, who states that ho was present
when the naming of the town ot
Medford was under discussion, and
that Medford was chosen for Ita
meaning that Is, because he new
town was In a "middle" position in
the valley. '
This la in direct contradiction to
the ordinary version, which Is to the
effect that David Lorlng, a civil en
gineer engaged on the railroad con
struction through the valley, selected
the name in honor of Medford, Mass.
The latter version Is the one given
by Lewis A. McArthur In his "Oregon
Geographic Names," and he cites
Richard Koehler, long operating head
of the Southern Pacific In Oregon as
his authority.
However, it may be that both aides
in the discussion are right. In all
probability Mr. Lorlng did suggest the
name In the manner recounted, but
In talking It over between the railroad
officials and the Jacksonville folk, its
appropriateness was what was con
sidered. Whether or not the name
was finally chosen because of Its
meaning of "middle," the fact re
mains that someone must have
thought of It In the first place and
must have had a reason for calling It
to mind. The evidence la that Mr.
Lorlng was the one who proposed the
name and that he did so as a result
of his memory of Medford, Mass. The
name apparently was first used Just
before the railroad from Grants Pass
to Phoenix was opened to traffic in
1884.

Your Income Tax
A series of dally articles based on
revenue act of 1D32 and designed
to aid those required to file In
come tax returns for year 1932'
No. 2.
Forms for Making Returns.
Forms for filing returns of Income
for 1932 have been sent to persons
who filed returns last year. Failure
to receive a form, however, does not
relieve a taxpayer of bis obligation to
file his return and pay the tax on
time, on or before March IS If the
return is made on the calendar-year
basis, as is the case with most indi
viduals. Lowering of the personal
exemption will require many hun
dreds of thousands of individuals to
file returns this year who did not
do so In 1932.
Forms may be obtained upon re
quest, written or personal, from the
offices of collectors of Internal reve
nue and deputy collectors. Persons
whose net Income for 1932 was de
rived chiefly from salary or wages
and was not in excess of 99000 should
make their returns on Form 1040A,
a single sheet. Persons whose net in.
come was in excess of $5000, or, re
gardless of amount, was derived from
a buslnes, profession, rents or sale of
property, are required to use a larger
form, 1040. Failure to use the proper
form presents difficulties to both the
taxpayer and the bureau of Internal
revenue. Therefore, It is emphasized
that a taxpayer engaged in a business
or profession from which he derived
a net Income of less than $5000 Is
required to use the larger form.
The return must be filed with the
collector of Internal revenue for the
district in which the taxpayer has his
legal residence or principal place of
business on or before midnight of
March IS, 1933. The tax may be
paid in full at the time of filing the
return or In four equal installments,
due on or before March 15, June IS.

To the Editor:
Out In the five hundred block on
Palm street there are homes and dogs
and boys who-love them. Also one of
those INHUMAN brutes who scatter
death by way of poison.
We know some think there are too
many dogs, but is there no way out
except one paved with poisoned pet
and the grieving hearts of the neigh
borhood kiddles.
We have no Idea who Is poisoning
these dogs and we suppose he or sh
is sitting by a fireside In snug com
placency, thinking that NO ONE
KNOWS.
DONT KID YOURSELF, DOO
POISONER: Long ago tho maker of
dogs and boys who love them, prom
ised to care for all. This same ONE
stood upon a mount and said "Bless
ed are the merciful, for they ehoD
obtain mercy.
How much mercy have you shown?
We are glad tonight that SOME
ONE KNOWS YOU, DO0 POISONER.
