Hollywood Really Needs Those Technical Advisers The butcher, the baker, the Candlestick maker--and about everyoo« else--watch Hollywood closely to •ee that they are done right. Let a movie maker show as little as 90 feet of film wherein a plumber, doctor, dentist or bricklayer uses the wrong tool «nd he will get • stack of mail. That's why hardly • movie U made these days without at least one technical adviser, and sometimes three or four. In "A Streetcar Named Desire^* one scene briefly shows a machine shop where some welding is going on. That was the signal, then, for Warner Brothers to call in Arthur Johnson, a veteran welder. He went on the pay roll as technical advise^, to be sure all scenes pertinent to his craft yrefe correct. Plumbers are the most sensitive craftsmen, according to studio executives, and next come doctors and dentists. That's why you seldom sef Jokes in pictures any more about plumbers forgetting their tools, over* charging, hooking gas lines to water «r cold water to hot.

Night traffic accidents cost the nation more than daytime crashes -- 20,000 lives, 740,000 injured people and $2,041,000,000 in economic loss per year--in spite of the fact that only a third as many vehicles are operating* at night as in daylight. » The essential difference in night traffic is reduced visibility because of insufficient light. • Experience reported by the National Street and Traffic Safety Lighting Bureau shows how adequate lighting reduces night accidents^ Mi NIGHT TRAFFIC DEATHS Year Year Befor* After VJfM» ViatMIity taprmuM in* 5 improvements 16 4-mile stretch of main thoroughfareJZi rh- * -K In* 2 * 2 16 . 78 4-mile stretch of highway entering city...~. 14 31 miles of streets.-- 11 10 improvements 11 4 improvements 7 20 intersections 11 1/3 mile of thorotlghfare ..... 15 Totals 94 LIVES SAVED _ Edmond C.

Maybe you found some that you're still planning to wear, but you're awfully tired of looking at it. Then it's time to do some remodeling, says University of Illinois clothing specialist Fern Carl. A little remodeling can make a big difference in your wardrobe. Try on each garment and look at yourself in the mirror so that you can see just how it fits. If it needs some altering, make the necessary notations or pinnings. Check the seams, the length, the style and trimmings. If your beige silk dress is too tight, write down the amount you'll have to let out the seams so that you won't forget, and if that red denim skirt needs the hem taken up a couple of inches, make a note of that too. Perhaps you have some clothes which will need to be completely made over. If a dress has worn out under the arms, why not make a sun dress or a pinafore out of it ? Sometimes you can make a skirt and a short jacket or bolero from a dress. Maybe you can change one of your dresses simply by adding pockets, collar and cuffs, or an artificial flower. New buttons can often perk up an old dress or suit. Or you may want to change the color by tinting or dyeing. You can make dickies, aprons, trimmings, beach bags, and play clothes from your old clothing. And don't forget the children! Miss Carl reminds you that all kinds of clothes can be made for the children from your own clothes which you no longer plan to wear. Newcastle Dlsfets* A veterinary medical bulletin iv ports that research Veterinarians In Egypt have had encouraging results with a vaccine treatment for chickens sick with Newcastle disease.

Edison isn't one of mankind's greatest benefactors, pull the master switch in your home tonight for a few seconds. Suddenly your living, laughing home will seem dead -- there win be darkness -- no television electricity, and within five years he had built a complete prototype of the electrical industry and established it as an operating utility in a section of New York's financial district. This proved a great undertaking since it was necessary for Edison to invent various devices including junction boxes aiid terminal devices needed to complete the installation as the need for them arose. or radio -- no hum of the refrigerator -- nothing -- merely an awesome silence. It will take only a few seconds • of darkness to appreciate more fully the genious of Edison whose name is associated not only with the invention of the first practical incandescent lamp seventyfive years ago, but linked to the amazing total of 1,097 patents granted him by the U.S. Patent Office during his lifetime. It is understandable that the birthday of electric light on Oct. 21 was an appropriate choice around which to commemorate all of Edison's contributions to mankind. Almost everyone has heard and read thevstory of Edison and his lamp, and how, after more than 1,600 tests of minerals and plants, a cotton thread from his wife's sewing basket, carbonized and bent in horseshoe form inside one of his sealed glass tubes, was the key to success. Many may not know that Edison wasn't content to ,r§3t on his lamp invention laurels.
