NLRB AREA CHIEF
CONDUCT IN TRIAL
Washington, Dec. 19. (P
A regional director of the na
tional labor relations board con
ceded today his conduct at a
trial examiner's hearing showed
a lack of proper separation of
the board s judicial and prose
cuting functions in the Cincin
nati Milling Machine company
case.
Appearing before the house
committee investigating the la
bor board, Philip G. Phillips,
regional director at Cincinnati,
saw N.L.R.B. records introduced
which showed that while he was
acting as attorney at the hear
ing he was also relaying to the
trial examiner, Harlowe Hurley,
instructions from the board.
Hurley upheld Phillips' con
tention on the point covered by
the instructions, the evidence
brought out, and the case sub
sequently was dropped because
of Phillips conduct at the hear
ing. Groceteria Sends
Cakes As Holiday
Gifts Says Gates
Gates & Lydiard's widely
publicized Mother's Day cakes
of recent years have stepped
into the list of Christmas gifts,
according to W. A. Gates, who
has just received an order from
a Quincy, Illinois firm for 17
cakes. An official of the Illi
nois manufacturing concern
happened to taste a Mother s
Day cake about a year and a
half ago and decided to send
similar cakes to customers in
17 cities, widely scattered
throughout the United States,
Mr. Gates said. As usual, the
cakes will be shipped in shred
ded cacoanut to assure arrival
in perfect condition.
Gates & Lydiard are able to
telegraph fruit d a s k e t s and
other fancy food gifts, through
their membership In Telefood
Service, anywhere In this coun
try, Canada, France, England
or Ireland right into the war
zone, according to Gates.
The way it works is that
Gates & Lydiard can wire the
order to the superior quality
store in the town where deliv
ery is to be made, This ser
vice Is restricted to only a rela
tively few of the finest stores
in the world, according to Mr.
Gates.

Eeek! It's the "Cat," about
to wreak its blood-lust on beau
tiful Paulette Goddard in the
super-thrill mystery - laugh hit,
"The Cat and the Canary,"
which comes to the Craterian
theater tomorrow for a four
day run. For sheer, shuddery
shock, the neat and nasty bogey
bundle called 'The Cat" is said
to be the killer-thriller of all
screen terrors. Whoever he is
and there's a mystery of its
"Bright Boy"
Jackie Cooper is starred op
posite Freddie Bartholomew as
friendly enemies in their dra
matic "Two Bright Boys, which
opens a two-day run today at
the New Rialto theater with
Alan Dinehart and Melville
Cooper in support.
Told In the colorful atmos
phere of the Texas oil fields.
Two Bright Boys ' pictures the
swift tragedy which may come
when one places confidence in
dangerous companions.
"Kid Nightingale, the ae
tlonful story of a singing slug'
ger, plays as the companion
feature with "Two Bright
Boys." John Payne, Jane Wy
man and Walter Catlett have
featured roles In "Kid Nightie
gale."

In Mystery Hit
own concerning his identity
"The Cat" is a real meanie, a
monstrous marauder with an
unreasoning lust to kill.
To relieve the tension that
mounts until nerves are ready
to crack, flip, wise-cracking Bob
Hope relies on gags instead of
guns to crack the mystery of
"The Cat," while others in the
cast include Gale Sondergaard,
John Beal, Douglass Montgom
ery and George Zucco.
Roxy Sleuth
John Howard again portrays
handsome Bulldog Drummond
in "Bulldog Drummond's Secret
Police," newest of the detective
series to play at the Roxy thea
