wood lived up to its reputation
Of being the moSt-talked-about
place in the world in 1885. And,
correspondingly, more false ru-
mors were circulated about the
film capital and its people than
about any other community.
Studios and stars were daily
called upon to deny reports of
deaths, kidnapings, feudS and
every imaginable disaster.
Number one false rumor (but
it might really have happened)
was that the motion-picture in
dustry was going to move to
New Jersey or Florida.
Most frequent fake rumor, as
usual, was of the deaths of
various stars. Such as the time
Claudette Colbert was reported
killed in a motor accident be-
tween Hollywood and Palm
Springs.
For months, it was whispered
that Joan Crawford was a pa
tient in a New Hampshire hos
pital. And Metro oldwyn-Mayer
has denied a dozen times that
Jean Harlow was kidnapped.

Dramatically delving into a

Warner production of Ceiling
Zero" ICONS forth to a decided
hit position, and it nicely clicks
along, amid a VORTEX of snappy
situations, with all the rapidit.
Of a whirlwind motor.
Fast-talking Pat OBrien, as the
division superintendent. and the
irrepreSSible James Cagney, as a
mail pilot, daredevil and genera
nuisance to any set routine anc

And a mighty swell screen dur
they make. It's cinch there arr
no dull moments with these twt
lads as pals and nearly Away
at odds with each other.
Director Howard Hawks. a b
of birdman himself, has injected
his love of aviation and his en-
thusiasm while putting the play
erS through their PAGES. The at
moSphere is constantly spirited,
full of fun with bit of romance
here and there, the trials and
tribulations of flyers combating
the elements, their petty argu-
ments, their never know-what-will
happen-next attitude and, in fact,
the life of an airport and the men
that make the wheels go around
has bee., brilliantly transferred to
the screen.
You'll like this adventure tale
not only because it strikes a new
note as far as movie stories go,
but because it has been done in an
excited, suSpense-filled manner.
Another thing, one of the haZ
ards of winter flying is the ice and
snow which collects on the wings
and downs the poor aviator. A
device called a "de-icer" plays a
most important part in this.
Aside from the performances Of
O'Brien and Cagney, Isabel Jewell,
with but a brief scene, does some
Of the finest work in the picture.
She depicts the grief-stricken wife
of Stuart Erwin, who is lost in a
storm. Others who lend support
are Barton MacLane, June Travis,
Henry Wadsworth, Martha lib
belts, Garry Owen, Addison Rich
ards and Ed Gargan.
Ceiling Zero" is crammed with
human interest, packed with
thrills and new twists. Another

hard-to-kill Eastern report that
Shirley Temple was a midget.
Even Hollywood fell for the
rumor that Bing Crosby, Gary
Cooper and Mae West were going
to withdraw from Paramount and
form a producing company Of
their own. The reported signing
of Jimmy Walker to head a film
organization received credence
here, too.
The most unfair rumors were
those concerning Loretta Young

And the story still crops up that
