DYER CINEMATOGRAPHER Aerial Photography Since 1918 HEmpstead 8116 HEmpstead 1128 No. 659 Golf Tournament Reggie Lanning, Bill Snyder and Bill Foxall are engaged in promoting suitable links and general arrangements for the Local No. 659 Golf Tournament to be held soon. The trio has been instrumental in the promotion of many successful golf tournaments among Cameramen of the M-G-M lot and their agreement to manage the 659 affair assures its success. GAWLF BAWLS A man don't have to be crazy to play golf — but it helps. Nowadays one can find more prominent people in a sandtrap than they can in a bank. Forget your interlock and lenses for a few days and practice up on your golf — because you'll have to show three past score cards as well as three signatures of members of our Local signed to these cards in order to participate in this tournament. Cards must be on 18 hole course. This tournament is to be held on a Scotch golf course where they have a sign that reads: "Members wil! please refrain from picking up lost balls until they have stopped rolling." Gordon McLean please note. o Demand the Label When you demand the Union Label on the product purchased, the act not only protects you from inferior articles, but you protect the artisan who made that product by increasing the demand for Union Made goods just that little bit. Tec-Art Is Ready With the first of May Tec-Art will have completed its two sound stages now under construction, and will immediately go into action with two companies producing simultaneously, according to Al Mannon, president. The stages are designed and being built by H. Kirk Kellog, who also designed the sound stages for United Artists and RKO. Each stage is 75 by 100 feet and will have every up-to-the-minute facility. So far, no system of recording has been decided upon, but it is believed that four types of sound reproduction will be used in order to accommodate the desires of numerous independents who lease space at Tec-Art. The two new sound stages are in addition to three silent stages which have a floor space of 30,000 square feet. Tec-Art is the largest studio in the world catering to independents. Office space rentals and stage use options are near capacity, and with the demand of the smaller independent for use of recording apparatus, it is probable that work will begin in the near future on another sound proof stage. Companies who now lease offices at Tec-Art include Chesterfield Productions, International Productions, Smitty Comedies, Inspiration Pictures, Edwin Carewe Productions, Fontaine and Davis (De Moraes) Productions, Technicolor Productions, Burr and Hines Enterprises, Burton King Productions, Qualitone Productions, Hollywood Voice and Screen Test Syndicate, Cinephone Corporation, Vita-vox Pictures. PANCHROMATIC MAKE-UP Manufactured Exclusively by Max Factor The first major step toward the standardization of make-up. It will eliminate the use of gaudy, useless colors. Panchromatic make-up is used in every studio, and its success is an outstanding achievement.
