Experiments Seeking
Disease-Free Plants
Berkeley, Calif. (U.R) The
University of California is ex
perimenting with a new way to
produce disease-free strawberry
plants.
The process, now in its exper
imental stage, is to put one glass
house inside another glass house
to keep the tender plants warm.
Prof. Stephen Wilhelm, of the
department of plant pathology,
now has 200 plants growing in
side an electrically heated green
house inside of another green
house. The plants are grown for two
weeks under 100-degree temper
ature, Wilhelm said. The high
temperature gets rid of viruses
that cause heavy losses in '.3
strawberry industry.
"If the small greenhouse
works as well as we think it
will" Wilhelm added, "the uni
versity will be able to provide
nurserymen with basic stocks of
virus-free varieties every year."
Phoney Orders Placed
For Radio Shop Here
Robert D. Edwards, Jackson
ville, informed city police Fri
day that an unknown person
had placed a number of fictitious
orders in the name of the United
Radio Supply company, 301
South Front st., by which he is
employed.
He said the orders were
placed after someone called him
by telephone concerning a radio
repair job. Edwards.' told the
caller that his firm did not do
repair work and that it was not
the policy of United to refer
repair work to any particular
shop. v
Following that plumbers of
four different shops called at his
place of business. A Pierce
Freight truck stopped and
a grocery store Drought a deliv

Hollywood (U.R) Jack Webb,
the hero of Dragnet who catches
the criminal but never a girl,
gut ins J. 11 9 b
screen kiss
yesterday in
the fervent
hope his TV
fans wouldn't
mind.
As Sgt. Fri
day on his TV
series, the big
eared Webb
Aline Mosby has remained
the steely-eyed cop whose mind
is on crime angles instead of
ankles. Like the western star
who's allowed to kiss only his
horse, Webb's companions could
only be his trusty pistol and side
kick Ben Alexander. -
But for Webb's first non-Friday
role in five years, as a jazz
musician in a Warner picture,
"Pete Kelley's Blues", he was
summoned to weather four siz
zling love scenes with curvaceous
Janet Leigh. ,
Lore Sequences
"The fans of Mickey Spillane
stories will like this picture,"
grinned Webb as he rested for
the, big moment. "Racy, swift
dialogue and a couple of pretty
torrid love sequences."
Only once did Webb introduce
sex apeal into Dragnet. Sgt. Fri
day dated a girl friend on four
programs. In one Webb gave her
a good-night peck and the mail
man arrived with bagfuls of com
plaints. "Fifty per cent of. the letters
thought it was splendid but 50
per cent thought it was bad to let
love creep into Dragnet," Webb
continued.
"In 24 minutes you can't tell
a love story, anyway, so we cut
it out. It's bad enough to resolve
the mystery in that time."
Dragnet draws about 1,500 let
ters a week and most of them
are, curiously, from women, de
spite the loveless dialogue and
Webb's emphasis on a poker-face
instead of passion.
"Why we get so manv letters
from women is as big a mystery
as some of our plots," added
Webb.
Enter Canary
The actor, who's also directing
"Pete Kelly's Blues," then
walked back to his set to guide
himself through his first love
scene in a movie (in earlier film
roles he usually played a heavy).
Webb made this scene more com
plicated by casting a pet canary
named Fred to perch on his
shoulder and then fly away when
Janet threw her arms around his
neck.
After eight tries, the canary
finally made it.
"We were both so nervous,"
Janet said later. "This is my first
adult love scene, too. I've always
just had young, tender ones be
fore. Jack is just great! I don't
think those women who write
him will be disapointed."
As I left the set, a box of
flowers arrived for Janet from
Webb with the card, "Fred sends
his love."
