stuck.2.No hard evidence exists to support that tale,but in any case,by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934,a Hollywood columnist used the name in his column.3.Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated feature Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.4.If the statuettes don*t meet strict quality control standards,they are immediately cut in half and melted down.5.The large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices via air express,with no identifiable markings.The Oscar statuette,designed by MGMs*chief art director Cedric Gibbons,depicts*a knight holding a crusaders*sword,standing on a reel of film with five spokes,signifying the original branches of the Academy:Actors,Writers,Directors,Producers,and Technicians.Born in 1928,years would pass before the Academy Award of Merit was officially named Oscar”.Industry insiders and members of the press called the award the Academy statuette*,Hthe golden trophyH or Hthe statue of merit*.The entertainment trade paper,Weekly Variety,even attempted to popularize the iron man.The term never stuck.A popular story has been that an Academy librarian and eventual executive director,Margaret Herrick,thought the statuette resembled her uncle Oscar and said so,and that as a result the Academy staff began referring to it as Oscar.No hard evidence exists to support that tale,but in any case,by the sixth Awards Presentation in 1934,Hollywood columnist Sidney Skolsky used the name in his column in reference to Katharine Hepburn*s first Best Actress win.The Academy itself didn*t use the nickname officially until 1939.Since its conception,the Oscar statuette has met exacting uniform standards-with a few notable exceptions.In the 1930s,juvenile players received miniature replicas*of the statuette;a ventriloquist*Edgar Bergen was presented with a wooden statuette with a moveable mouth;and Walt Disney was honored with one full-size and seven miniature statuettes on behalf of his animated featureSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs.Between 1942 and 1944,in support of the war effort,Oscars were made of plaster.After the War,winners turned in the temporary awards for golden Oscar statuettes.The traditional Oscar statuette,however,hasn*t changed since the 1940s,when the base was made higher.In 1945,the base was changed from marble to metal and in 1949,Academy Award statuettes began to be numbered,starting from No.501.Approximately 50 Oscars are made each year in Chicago by the manufacturer,R.S.Owens.If they don*t meet strict quality control standards,the statuettes are immediately cut in half and melted down.Each award is individually packed into a Styrofoam*container slightly larger than a shoebox.Eight of these are then packed into a larger cardboard box,and the large boxes are shipped to the Academy offices in Beverly Hills via air express,with no identifiable markings.On March 10,2000,55 Academy Awards mysteriously vanished en route from the Windy City*to the City of Angels.Nine days later,52 of stolen statuettes were discovered.For eight decades,the Oscars have survived war,weathered earthquakes,and even managed to escape unscathed*from common thieves.Since 1995,however,R.S.Owens has repaired more than 160 statuettes.HMaybe somebody used chemicals on them to polish them and the chemicals rubbed right throughthe lacquer*and into the gold,explains the company president.HOr maybe people stored them someplace where they corroded.Although he stresses that the statuette is made to endure,Siegel offers this sage advice to all Oscar winners:“If it gets dusty,simply wipe it with a soft dry cloth.Exercise A Pre-listening QuestionEvery January,the attention of the entertainment community and of film fans around
