Rainfall Fails to End Drought In East, South Damaeed Crops, Low Rivers, Forest Fires Are Products of Dry Spell By Associated Press Drought conditions prevailed in much of the east and south today despite generally heavy rains that in some places amounted only to temporary relief. Damaged crops, low rivers, forest fires and shortened supplies of farm and city water attested to the severity of the spring dry spell which Ohio ranked as its worst in 25 years.

Governor J. M. Broughton of North Carolina said the three inch rain that ended a 30 day drought was worth a million dol lars a county where the fall was heavy. It checked forest fires, the worst in years there, and helped tobacco, peach, strawberry and cotton crops. The weather bureau said the light rains relieved conditions in South Carolina but were not enough for farms, drinking water and industrial water supplies.

In West Virginia the continuous downpour caused flash floods that washed out numerous crops while heading off water shortages and forest dryness. The delta district of Louisiana foresaw the "best prospective cotton crop in three years." Additional rain was needed in eastern Pennsylvania, where the drought followed the driest April since 1888, in eastern Missouri and central Illinois where crop conditions improved but water supply conditions remained serious in some cities.

From time immemorial which means way back in the dear days before sound Catalina Island has been used by the movies as a locale for sea stuff.

Long John Silver, in the person of Wallace Beery, has clumped its pebbly sands in "Treasure Island." Off its shores Captain Bligh, in the person of Charles Laughton, has trod the quarter deck of the Bounty and snarld commands to Mr. Christian. On its blue waters Fredric March has been "The Buccaneer," and a heroic gunner Beery again has manned Old Ironsides almost single handed. Now a new sea captain, Walter Brennan, has heaved to or is it lias hove to? in Emerald Bay, and John Car roll, a gallant voyageur, is playing tag with slender Carol Bruce among the hills and woods along the shore. The tag playing and ho heav ing is all for Frank Lloyds big movie or John Jacob Astor fur business in Astoria, James Lewis." That isn't the title the film wall be shown under; it's the of Gilbert Gabriel's novel from which the picture is being made, and a new one will be chosen from 200 suggestions, including 'I, Frank Lloyd." A location story is always more interesting than a set story, for all a reporter has to do on a set is sit.

At Catalina you see the ambitious things the movies can do when they put their minds to it. Universal Pictures has moved a company of about 200 to a cabin resort on the Isthmus. It has rented from Paramount, for $1000 a day, the square rigged schooner Metha Nelson and has made her into J. Jacob Astor's fur boat Ton quin Lloyd bought her, incidentally, several years ago f6r 'Raiders of the Sea." Soon as she finishes James Lewis" she'll go to C. B.

de Mille for "Reap the Wild Wind." Universal has rented, also for a pitty penny, a seagoing tug to haul Metha around, and a half dozen big spedboats at $100 each to ferry people and films to and from the mainland and to be generally useful. Lloyd is confident of two things that Walter Brennan's line, "Get off my quarterdeck!" will become as famous as Laugh ton's "Mr. and that, in Carol Bruce, he has a film find. Miss Bruce attracted attention in the New York musical, "Louisiana Purchase." Lloyd took a chance in giving the young lady the feminine lead, since she knew nothing about movies. The first week's rushes indicate that, as well as being beautiful, Miss Bruce has a vivid personality.

Evenings when shooting's over she goes fishing for sea bass. Speaking of fish, the publicity department had a discouraging time trying to plant a yarn that Brennan got knocked out by a flying fish. No Hollywood correspondent would take this one because it was plain silly. But I found it reaelly happened. Bren nan was taking a boat ride one night and there was a light on the boat.

Any kind of fish will gather around a light A flying fish took a jump topside to see what was up, collided with Wal ter's skull and put him out for the count. Witnesses say that Brennan knocked the fish out, too. Lloyd has had no problems with his actors, who also include Nigel Bruce, who has become a fishing nut; Franchot Tone and maybe 100 Indians.
