Noisy Noise Annoys an Oyster,
Also the Movie Stars

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 8.-Living
in a domain Of silence, where the
slightest extraneous sound would
ruin half a days work, motion
picture stars are afraid Of sounds.
The noises that annoy oysters
have nothing on the squeaks that
bother celebrities.
They don't have to be loud
noises; in fact, some of the most
annoying Of all, to celebrities Of
the screen, are very tiny noises
indeed.
For instance, the slight noise a
pipe makes while being smoked
can almost drive Luise Rainer,
heroine of 1.-THE Good Earth"

generally taboo in Difference to the

It IS interesting to see how De-,
Mile shoots this.
In the old days, Cooper might
have come rushing onto the set
and cried. THE Indians are COM

But, after the modern manner
Of the movies, these actors play
the scene down. Their behavior
is not excited. From Is feet away
you couldn't hear the dialogue.
Yet the scene, as they play 1t.
has the punch Of drama.
DeMille okays it after only q
couple Of takes.
He comes over to speak to me,
and he pays Helen Burgess a COM
pIiment that should make her cut
this item out and paste it in her
scrap-book.
He says: THAT girl has more
poise, more sense Of timing than
any newcomer ever saw"
I ask him then If he doesn't
feel strange working in such close
quarters.

It is more fun watching Direc-
tor Jack Conway act than 1t is

While figuring out a piece Of
business he becomes Spencer
Tracy for the moment and strides
back and forth between a desk
and a window. The players
watch, but if they don't agree,
they all say so.
Conway is quick to admit it Il
he is wrong.
"I guess I'm pretty boiSterous,

about lines. In a scene we
watch, the script calls for Tracy
to say: I'D gamble on him to
beat anybody from Gandhi to
Garbo."
Tracy doesn't like the line.
"Can't I just eliminate that
about Gandhi and Garbo?" he
asks. "M-G-M doesn't need the
advertising, does it?"
After a moments thought, Con.
way saysi "All right, try 1t your
way"
The actors love this and Con
way gets results. So, apparently
there are lots Of ways to direct
a picture and still be right.

These Changing Scenes

Her courtesy Is not only for

the girls who can't leave their

caused gallons Of lemonade and
ice cream to be distributed.
Marion Davies is the most
popular star in Hollywood with

great time, for it is their

Dave Gould when he says
they are "the tops"
And speaking of "the
tops" reminds me that the
man who wrote that popu-
lar piece of music, Cole Por-
ter, has written six songs
for our picture, and every
one of them sounds like d
sensation. 1 especially like
them because they give me a
grand opportunity to try a
lot of new ideas.
I'm just getting settled
in my new Beverly Hills
home, but I won't get a
chance to finish it until after
the picture. 1 like the set
that we're using for the

well that I'm making a deal

I'm going to take the rugs,
drapes, ping pong and pool

basement, which will be con-

tion that the studio doesn't
have much faith in my BIZ

we're filming the picture,
