Attack Second Une
SHANGHAI. Sept 14—(P—The
Japanese army splashed forward
through a torrential rain today in
a marred attack against Chinese
second line positions northwest of
Shanghai.
A Japanese spokesman reported
that the strong fortifications at the
Chinese civic center of Kiangvan
had been occupied and the Japa-
nese troops had pushed deep into
the delta The muddy roads were
jammed with Japanese reinforce-
ments moving up to bolster the as-
sault against the new Chinese line.
Heavy artillery and tanks slith-
ered across the country behind the
advancing Japanese infantry in the
flooded delta lands.
New horror was added to the
tragic stoty of undeclared war at
Shanghai when the Chinese Cen-
tral news agency reported 400 civ-
Ulan war refugees had been killed
or wounded by Japanese bombs
rained on the flimsy ratling boats
in which they were fleeing the city
Three at the boats were said to
have been sunk and six Uema—it.
After their four-mile retirement
last night, the Chinese forces took
up their new positions extending to
almost a straight northwest line
from Shanghai's north station for
30 miles to the banks at the Yangtze
River above Lhiho.
They appeared undaunted by the
strategic withdrawal which their
commanders explained was made to
afford better coordination of the
various Chinese units and to avoid
the heavy fire of Japanese war-
ship.
The tenacious Chinese, who had
fought the Japanese advance to a
standstill for almost five weeks, still
had three powerful defense lines

"My dear Mrs Martin: While

evenings ago, our hostess was very
rude to me. I made a perfectly in-

Mayer Company, foremost produc- •
tion organization, believe that to-
morrow s stars will come from the
ranks of America s "unknowns, just
as did Joan Crawford, Greta Gar-
bo. Norma Shearer and their other
great stars
In the hope that they may dis-
cover some new stars by this means,
the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Com-
pony has turned Texas into a pri-
vate hunting preserve to an inten-
sive search for new talent and has
asked the Record-Chronicle and the
iterstate-Texas Consolidated The-
atres. of which the Texas Theatre
is one, to aid them to discovering
persons with screen possibilities to
this area.
To Conduct Tests
To make this possible, M.-G.-M.
will make a series of screen tests
right in the state itself instead of
making the tests in the studio. To
accomplish this it became neces-
sary to send a full test crew to
Texas where they will make tests to
Fort Worth, Dallas, Houston and
San Antonio.
Equipped with the modern aids,
C Edward Carrier, M.-G.-M. test
director, and his crew of camera-
men. technicians and make-up ex-
pert will make 75 tests of that many
persons selected in advance audi-
tions to towns over the state. In
Denton the Texas Theatre will par-
ticipate by conducting “search for
talent” auditions Sept. 22 and 33.
Although the 75 tests will be for-
warded to the M.-G.-M. studios for
study by studio executives and tal- ,
ent scouts, four of those tested will
be selected by C Edward Carrier,'
M.-G.-M. test director, and sent to
the studio with all expenses paid
for further studio tests.
Presents Opportunity
“If you think you have ’what it
takes" to win a place in Hollywood
this is your golden opportunity,"
terstate -Texas Consolidated The-
atres or of the Record-Chronicle.
“And now, all that it is necessary
to do is to dip and fl out the ap-
I plication blank appearing on this
page, paste It on the back of a re-
cent photograph and mall It under
first class postage to the M.-G.-M
Search for Talent director at the

Women furiously resent being
called cats. Even the most feline
female will deny that she has one
I bit of cattiness in her make-up.
! Call it what you like, women
are capable at striking out swift-
ly, apparently without reason, giving
a dig for no other reason than
showing that they can. Maybe it’s
the reflex of a momentary impulse
maybe that is why women find
it so easy to forgive and forget
the digs their best friends inflict
Men never understand why it is that
women are continually off and on
with their affections for and friend-
ships with other women. Perhaps
nature never intended women to un-
derstand men, either, but they pre-
tend they do in order to impress
men with the value of their inner
vision or second sight.

Chinese warplanes and the guns
of Bocca Tigris forts at the entrance
to the Canton River were reported
today to have defeated a Japanese
fleet in what was described as a ma-
jor naval engagement
A spokesman for the Kwantung
provincial government said one Jap-
anese warship was struck squarely
on the bridge by a shell and an-
other was belching clouds of smoke
where it had been hit by a bomb.
The Japanese fleet of four de-

the Bocca Tigris forts, protecting
the river entrance and the route
to Canton, at 5 am.

/ It was a most unfortunate note
on which to end a pleasant even-
ning. If any apology is due. it is
due you. You were a guest in this

have rememberer that. Besides
which, it is not pleasant to be ac-
cused, justly or unjustly at dis-
loyalty.
Wait a while. If she values your
friendship she will eventually seek
you out. If you meet by chance, do
not be childish enough "not to
speak to her." Be politely casual,
if you like, but don't be foolishly
haughty.

ATLANTA, Sept. 14— (API-
Less than a dozen states permit cor-
poral punishment of prisoners, and
the um of shackles is on the wane.
This was shown today tn an unof-
ficial survey of prison systems of
various states as Governor K D
Rivers announced a plan to abolish
Georgia's chaingangs.
Authoritative sources said the
governor’s announcement meant
that Georgia would not restore the
lash for punishing convicts, as was
suggested by several prison officials
to curb widespread chaingang es-
capes.
Rivers said the plan, to be pre-
sented to the Legislature in Novem-
ber. also called for employment of a
trained expert to run the prison
system, conversion of chaingangs

PUNISHMENT FOR PRISONER S,
AS GEORGIA ABOLISHES CHAINS
The Denton public school system
will inaugurate a permanent book-
keeping system so *11 records of in-
come and expenditures can be kept
on file, members of the Board of
Education voted st the monthly
meeting Monday night.
D. P. McAlpine, auditor who re-
ported completing his 1937 audit at
the school’s recrods, said to be ths
first general audit carried out in
years, was authorized to do addi-
tional work to bring the report up
to the end of the school’s fiscal
year, Aug. 31, and after that to
set up the permanent record sys-
tem.
It was a move the auditor had
previously strongly urged to both
the trustees and the City Commis-
sion His present audit showed the
school’s status to be satisfactory, but
the lack of permanent books was a
handicap, McAlpine argued, and the
setting up of ths permanent system
was unanimously recommended by
the city officials in discussing the
matter with the Dallas auditor.
Provisions for keeping the records
have not been decided on by the
trustees, they said afterward, but
will be mapped out between now
and the time the extended audit re-
port is completed.
The matter was the only official
action taken at Monday night’s
session, and the only order shown
on the minutes.
Stadium Problem Walts
The problem of the newly-erected
high school football stadium re-
mained undisposed of after the
Monday night meeting, board mem-
bers said later.
A matter of untangling a dispute
over boundary lines of the football
field itself was laid before the
board, and must be presented the
City Commission for settlement,
and until that is straightened out.
the other matter will be left pend-
ing. Dr Spencer Stoker, board
president, said.
WPA officials recently assailed
the stadium as of unsafe construc-
tion. and definite steps the board
will take to move in the matter
