Wednesday, September 30, 1936 MOTION PICTURE DAILY Guests From All Sections Were Present (Continued from page 12) credit for the good this industry has done. By its foresight, Metro has set new standards and it is a great thing for all of us. I want to take this opportunity for thanking M-G-M. It is only by cooperation for good that we can benefit." Lichtman, in part, spoke along identical lines. Rodgers echoed the sentiment and made several references to points expounded by Warner earlier. Weisman gave Rodgers a scroll presented by Will Hays. Sam Dembow, Jr., turned over to the guest of the evening a check for $2,000 with a promise that more was to come. It represented part of the proceeds of the dinner which will go to charities, largely within the industry, in memory of Felix F. Feist, whose successor Rodgers is. A solid silver tea service was presented to Mrs. Rodgers through her husband by Brandt. Rodgers paid tribute to the memories of Feist, Irving Thalberg and Jack Springer and declared each one, prominent in his own branch of the industry, will be missed. From 11 o'clock the speeches were broadcast over WHN. The attendance included : Louis Allerhand, Edward Ansin, Mike Alperin. Louis Astor, E. Aaron, B. Abner, Peter Adams, Adam Adams, Parke Agnew, P.

The crowd gave evasive answers, and the stranger became vexed. "Don't you fellows ever discuss politics?" he asked. "Well, you see it comes at rather a bad time," one of the boys explained, "right now there's the start of the football season, soon it will be time for the World Series, and before we can get around to it, the election will be M.
