Getting Job Is
A Cinch

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 2.-The
folks back in Granville, Mich,
will never again believe those
stories about Hollywood being a
land of barred gates.
Into the cinema capital last Sat
urday came William Wells, a
young actor with a modest stock
background and with letter to
John Cromwell, R-K-O director.
Fate being in a smiling mood,
Cromwell was in, and consented
to an interview.
That was Saturday.
Young Wells must have done
some fast talking, because Crom-
well told him to come back on
Monday for a screen test. He
took the test and Cromwell prom
ised to get some of the executives
to look at it.
On Tuesday, they looked, and,
on Wednesday, the unbelievable
happened. Wells signed a long
term contract. A grand total OF
five days and smooth sailing all
the way. The folks back in Gran
vile, Mich, will never think about
the 999 other newcomers who are
doomed to haunt studio casting
offices until they become diScour'
aged and move into other fields,
or are finally absorbed into Holly
woods extra ranks,

Mae West Is
OFF Horses

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 2.-Turf-
dom's new craze of naming race
horses after screen stars is due
to be a short-lived one. Many
of the players, prominent among
them Mae West, are bowing out
Of such honors.
Mae, who has been beset by
breeders of fine horseflesh from
all over the country, looked up
the records on ponies named after
living celebrities.
None of them, she claims, has
amounted to much.
And, if it's proof you want,
she'll cite you the track history
of such animals as Bing Crosby.
AL Jolson, Damon Runyon and
others.
The only good one, says the
star, was a horse named John
P. Grier, and it ran it's heart
out trying to catch up with
Man o. War.

Fashion Plate
Mr.. BeeY

Adolphe Menjou's reputation as
Hollywood's leading fashion plate
has been challenged by no less a
parsonage than Wallace Beery,
with whom he appears in Twen-
tieth Century's 'The Mighty Bar
num-" showing February Z and
at the Avenue Grand Theater.
In the title role of this Joseph
M. Schenck-Darryl F.. Zanuck pres
entation Beery blossoms forth in
unprecedented Sartorial grandeur
Taking time off from his midgets,
giants and the rest of his side
show exhibits to court the beauti-
full Jenny Lind, "Barnum" Beery
dons frock coat, silk topper and
long, satin-lined Inverness cape,
and even wields a gold-headed
cane. Add to this a pair of care,
fully cultured silky sideburns, and
you have completed the dazzling
spectacle.
Beery'S challenge was the more
spirited since the film, which Wal,
ter Lang directed for release
through United Artists, offers
Menjou ample opportunity to com.
pete in the sartorial lists. But
Adolphe's off-screen standing as
Hollywood's best-dressed star re.
mains unaffected, as a hurried
checkup when the picture was
completed found him two dozen
suits, IL hats, nine robes and sew
eral dozen Sundries in the lead.
