Producers travel on the assumption
that each new face Is potential star, II
that face is accompanied by talent and
personality which registers and appeals
In view of this fact, newcomers to the
screen are receiving the most careful
consideration, in order that their initial
appearance before the camera may be
in a role best suited to present qualities
for which the public is waiting and
eager.
On Paramount lot, for instance. while
the closest attention Is being paid to the
selection of vehicles for such players as
Marlene Dietrich, the four Marx broth

Charles Laughton, Richard Arlen, Carol
