Even the actors who wear wigs for their roles-like Errol Flynn in Captain Blood"-don't call their hairlines their own. To wear a wig at all effectively the hair must be cut very short underneath. George E. Stone had close shave in order to wear the "cat-man" makeup of Sancho in Adverse"
 Of course the makeup men can and do repair slips of the razor and slips of memory. Oscar Polk, the negro Gabriel" of "The Green Pastures" didn't know about the no haircut without consultation rule.
 He appeared on the set one day with the evidences of a brand-new shearing. He always gets a haircut every two weeks, he explained when consternation broke forth. Perc Westmore, the makeup chief, rem edied the damage, but Oscar was reminded not to repeat during pro- duction.
 Your soul is your own, Oscar" said Director Marc Connolly, but right now your hair belongs to the studio"

HOLLYWOOD, March 17.-Males who are vain about their hair lines had better stay out of pictures. Signing a contract, for an actor, is. equivalent to deeding to- the studio all rights to his skull-cap.
 The actor has to silun the barber until he has talked over his pros pective haircut with producer, cast ing director and cameraman. Some actors go through picture after pie ture and never wear their own fla vorite trim.
 Dick Powell, for instance, has been himself-hirsutically speaking in only three or four pictures. For others he has let his hair grow long to be curled, had it cut short acording to Annapolis and West Point requirements, has grown side burns and worn it meduim-length- each time at the dictation of some body else. In case you're curious, the Dick Powell haircut of Col leen" is his own.
 Like most actors, Dick slaves himself, and he has to be very careful. A slip of the razor might

 Threatening weather after a steady downpour holds no terrors for the Hollywood star-gazer. The crowds were there for Chaplin's opening, long before the circus ringmaster otherwise called the master of ceremonies-was on the scene. They lined the sidewalks, both sides of the street, overflowed the curbs and cut motor lanes to creeping alleys. Extra traffic guards held back the crush.
