HOLLYWOOD, March l8.-postal authorities in Flickerville have been uttered by long practice to for ward all letters addressed simply to Tt, Hollywood, Calif.,7 to Clara Bow, who also gets those marked "Redhead."
 But that by no means solves their problem of handling freakily ad- dressed mail intended for movie stars
 From Houston, Texas, recently came letter for "Booh-Pooh- -Pah- Da'-one guess on who got thatl
 One addressed to The Virginian' of course reached Gary Cooper, who played the title role in that talkie
 Another came addressed only to "The Sweetest Girl in Hollywood That was a poser, but it finally reached Mary Brian, who is publi- cized as such, and when opened sure enough. the missive began: Dear Mary"
 It's all game, and to play it with the fans, who like to test Un- cle Sans ability to solve postal puzzles, the authorities have to know their movies.

THE CREMATION KID"
 AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

Douglas MacLean steps out in a new production tonight at the Coli scum and a very fast and action able cne at that-after consider able absence from the screen. He was last seen in Soft Cushions" a fantastical romance with regular Arabian Nights setting, and now he steps out in something radically diff ferent in The Carnation Kid, which has dark plot, full of dra- ma and thrills, located in the un- derground society of big city.
 MacLean is one of the stars who has been counted on for stan dard entertainment for quite a number of years in the movies. His film career dates back to those successful light comedies, such as Twenty three and Half Hours Leave" "Mary's Ankle" and others. A little later he went in for farce and light comedy, such as "The Hottentot," Going Up," Never Say Die" and long string of catchy pictures.
 More recently he appeared in Let It Rain" and Soft Cushions" for Paramount, and still under the Paramount banner will film two pictures this year, the first of which is The Carnation Kid" The new picture goes more into the dra- matic side than the comedy for it's contains all the clements of melo- dramic story, with thrills, a little romance, and lots of fighting of one kind and another.

Note for Mothers

Everyone knows the familiar sight of small boy whiningly do- ing his piano lesson under the watchful eye of mother. Paul Koh- ner, now director and head of a studio foreign department, was one of those boys.
 Today, like many Hollywood mu- sicians and linguists, he is grateful to the mother who made him con- tinue his study of music and Ian guages. Music already has proved it's priceless worth to cinema folk and the knowledge of foreig T tongues, the more the better, is be- coming increasingly important.
