GRAND CENTRAL MURDER-DRAMA AT THEATRE WED. Some 500,000 people pass through New York’s Grand Central Station daily, including 100,000 communtters and through passengers., The remainder are non-passengers, many of them from sulbbways opening in the Terminal. Approximately 500 trains enter or leave the station each twenty four hours. ; Because of the human interest it 'holds, the Terminal has become the setting for many stories of fiction. More recently, Hollywood has contributed “Grand Central Murder,’ a picture with most of its action occurring in the underground passage As the setting for a murder mystery, the Terminal is ideal. There in arthor con bring together characters from every walk of life without stretching his imagination, In the new film, a private detective and his wife, a beautiful: showgirl, her maid, and her understudy, a_ railroad worker, a stage producer, a “blackmailer, a young society couple an escaped convict and a railroad president all are found in a single spot one evening, and thus become suspects in the murder. The Grand Central Terminal probably the only place in the world where such a situation could exist. The Terminal itself is one of the architecural marvels of the age, covering, seventy nine acres in both its upper ond lowel levels. It is at the same time one of the most efficiently designed and most beautiful structures in the world. The Terminal ‘boasts a remarkable history dating back to 1871, when it ‘was ‘built through the initiative of Commodore (Cornelius * Vanderbilt. Then itiwas demolished to make way for the new Terminal. The wrecking took seven years, starting in 1903. In 1912, the suburban level of the present Terminal was opened, and the upper level was completed the following year. The third rail and electric interlocking switch and signal system by is whrich trains are controlled are shown in ‘“‘Grand ‘Central Murder,’’ both figuring importantly in the crime and its solution. In writing her novel from which the picture was adapted, Sue MacVeigh was given the ‘run of the Terminal, assuring an au. thentic story of life within its structure. The studio’s main difficulty was in providing trains. The war had tied upall locomotices in Southern California for army use. Only after a wait of two weeks could MGIM obtain a late model engine, and. then it could be kept for but one night. The players worked almost until morning to complete the sequences requiring it, so the locomotive could be returned to its yard the following day. ie RAY WILDE AT CAMP ROBERTS A letter from Ray Wilde, now at Camp Roberts, to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Wilde of this city, states that he is pleased with his new life, environment and activities.

He said that during the continual battle of the Marines to force the Japs farther and farther from Henderson field, he and his buddies found the bodies of two marines, ‘whose tongue had been torn out, apparently while they were still living, and their bodies then used for bayonet practice. The marines, he said, learned through bitter experience to trust only a very dead Jap. Wounded Japs on the battleield would turn on the (Marines seeking to succor them, and with any weapon at hand kill them. He described the methods the Maatic enemy is dead. No attempt to succor, the wounded is made. The Marines after a battle run their tanks over the quick and the dead. EARLY TO WORK FOR STATE EMPLOYEES j SACGRAIMEINTO, Dec. 14.—(UiP)— State employes in Sacramento will have to arrive for work an_ hour earlier if a recommendation sulbmitted today by a committee of department executives is adopted. The committee recommended that ‘working hours for all workers possible be set at 8 a. m. to 4:30 p. m. as part of a citywide plan to stagger working hours to ease transportation shortages. The committee said that the law requires that many departments maintain 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. office hours, but said that skeleton crews could be used to conform to the rule.
