HOLLYOOOD Producer , Samuel Goldwyn soon will have to take up
tennis vo Keep in step wua ms stars.
The latest signature he coaxed upon a contract belongs to Francis X
Shields, prominent on the nation's c ourts, and before that he signed 16-year-old
Eugenia Falkenberg, who w ields a racket nicely, too, to build her
for eventual starring roles.
In neither ease, however, did Gold wyn get the bright Idea through be
ing smitten by bis prospects' athletic prowes. Sam goes to some sport
events, .In spectator's capacity, and h did meet "Jinx" Falkenberg at the
tennis tournament, but she was Just a spectator, too, on that lucky day
for her. As for Shields, who signed a
Metro movie contract six months ago
and never played a part, Goldwyn mot
him at a party, and says he didn't
even recognize the tennis name. That
being so, you can play tennis If you
like It, but don't count on It to put
you in the movies.
Eugenia Falkenberg, whose first
"part" under her contract Is that of
a showgirl In Eddie Cantor's "Shoot

erything she does not know about act
ing but she will work hard to learn.
If ahe hadn't come Into pictures, she
would have been going to school now.
She Is still going to school, of course,
at the studio.
"Jinx" (she has been called that
ever since she could remember) has
a life story that could be worked In
to a screen play. Her father, Lincoln
Falkenberg, an engineer, was sent to
Spain on a project and there met
Marquerlte Crooks, a Spanish-Eng
lish socialite. They were married and
Eugenia was born In Barcelona Janu
ary 31, 1910. Eugenia thinks they
might have nicknamed her "Jinx"
because an Infant naturally would
be a problem to an engineer whose
work called blm Into far parts of the
earth.
She Lived Around
She went along, at any rate, with
the family, and has lived In Santiago,
Chile; Sao Paulo, Brazil; Rio de ,1a

executive engineer on the Colorado
river aqueduct, the family came to
Los Angeles. "Jinx"-already had at
tained athletic laurels. In Chile, at
13, she had won a swimming cham
pionship, and her tennis was notably
superior.

RELIEF FINANCING
(Contlnuea From Page One.)
sues bear interest from Septerrfber
16. payable semi-annually.
If all the old notes are exchange
for the new the government win
save $4,180,000 annually in Interest
charges, but If the new bonds are
taken in exchange, the government
stands to pay out additional Inter
est charges of $1,045,000 annually
on the $418,000,000 Issue.
Observers noted that the interest
rates offered marked an at least
temporarily levelling off in a steady
decline which has been in progress
for many months.
The fact that the Interest figures
for the December offering are the
same as September's gave rise to
conjecture as to whether the low
point has not finally been reached,
with an upward movement possibly
In prospect.

Of the

Of Portland
Beginning today the Medford National Bank becomes the
Medford Branch of the United States National Bank of
Portland,
This change has in no respect affected the localized, interested
personal service to which you have been accustomed. It has,
on the other hand, increased the capacity, substantiality and
helpfulness of that service by a background of larger capital
and resources of over 100 Million Dollars.
As a pioneer Oregon banking institution, our interests and our
energies are directed toward the continued development of the
State and the activities of this Branch will be wholly employed
in support of the commercial and agricultural enterprise of
Medford and surrounding territory.

our broad and diversified loan service, or to utilize some

The rising taxes on food shrink every
family's income. (Actually, 53 separate
taxes are now levied on a loaf of bread!)
Who pays these food taxes?
The farmer pays a share.
Other taxes are payed by "processors,"
still others by transporters, and others
in addition by retailers.
But the farmer, the "processor," and
the retailer can't exist unless they pass
these taxes along.
So finally, it is you the consumer
who pays the bulk of food taxes. They are
"wrapped up" in the retail prices you pay.
Yet there is one relief. It is a waste-
cutting method of getting
food from farms to you
the Safeway method.
With food taxes added on
to your monthly food bills,
you ought to make the sav
ings that your neighborhood
bnjeieay grocer offers you.
When you save this way,
vou help the farmer, too.
Farmers get a larger share
ot your tood dollar
when you buy at a
Safeway grocery.
r- --
YOUR neighborhood S.Ucw.iy grocer is
not discussing here the tight and wrong
of taxes on food.
But with food taxes mounting so rapidly,
your Safeway grocer's efficiency in distribut
ing food is more than ever important to you.
He can help keep your food bills down.
He docs it not by skimping his workers
and not by pinching the farmer. He and his
workers cam more than other men doing
similar work. The farmer gets a l.irgcr slurs
of the food dollar spent at Safeway than he
docs of food dollars spent elsewhere.
Your Safeway guxer saves you this money
by clumxMiKg u .is:e and middleman expenses.
He could not do this alone. In 3 group

tood-buvcrs, ti

It is the family idea a group of men and
women working together for one purpose
that makes possible this aid to farmer and
consumer alike.
Because he belongs to a business family,
your Safeway grocer can help you offset
the skyrocketing taxes on food! . . . M. L
