HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP

Hollywood - Randolph Scott is still in pretty vile humor after something that happened while he was driving to Palm Springs the other day. He ran out of gas and had to walk two miles in a blazing sun to a filling station.
 Nobody offered him a lift, and the station attendant didn't have 8 car handy. So Scott walked back. carrying a heavy can of gas and getting @ little dizzy with the heat. Lots of cars whished by but none of the tourists recognized the dusty pedestrian as a movie star in dis tress.
 Finally he completed the return trip, and poured the fuel into the tank. Then he walked around to get in and drive on his way. Sud- denly his sun-baked mind focused on a terrible fact-his own auto- mobile stood a few hundred yards up the road. He had poured the gas into somebody else's car. Fast Work
 Two women were browsing in 6 boulevard bookshop the other day when one of them held up . copy of Anthony Hopes "The Prisoner of Zenda" and exclaimed: Look. Helen-the picture isn't released yet and already they got 1t out in book form!"
 Pound Foolish
 And on the same day, swears Harry Morse, Q chorus girl angled into & drug store and evidently was making for the soda fountain for a sandwich-asld-sunda CT something when she passed Q weighing machine.
 She stopped, considered for a moment, then fished a penny from her purse and got on the scale. The needle Tipped to l2s pounds--too many pounds, as her look of con- sternation showed.
 But she wasn't licked yet. She took another coin from her purse and held 1t between her teeth. Took her furpiece from her neck and draped 1t over her left arm. Next, she removed two heavy brilliaxlt-studded bracelets and dropped them into her purse.
 Holding purse and furpiece, she stepped on the scale and deposited the penny. The needle revoived to i2S pounds.
 She stared at it dejectedly, sighed, and returned to the boulevard without any lunch.

Here's a Movie Within a Movie;
 Even The Actors Are Bewildered
Stars Cast As Exas Extras Cast As Sta Even Music Making k Purposey Inaccurate And Two Directors Add To The Confusion
BY PAUL HARRISON

NEA Service Stan correspondent
 Hollywood-It's very confusing, the situation on the set of Music for Madame" the Nino Martini Joan Fontaine picture. For there's a movie within the movie; one camera crew shoots second camera crew in the act of shooting some sequen- ceS in musical
 Visitors and technicians and even the players themselves have Q hard time remembering that when the dummy director yells "Cut"l it's just part of the story, and that the scenes are supposed to continue until the real director, John Blystone, says, "CutI" Several takes have been ruined by prema- ture outbursts of laughter on the Sidelines.
 Equally bewildering is the
 fact that Martini and Miss FOn-
 taine, the stars, are playing the
 roles of movie extras. But the
 roles of the stars are being
 played by obscure character
 actors.
 One phase of this movie of movie-making is deliberately in- accurate. When you see the pie ture you will see an orchestra on the sidelines, and it apparently will be accompanying the singing of George Shelley as he warbles in Q balcony scene.
 But that isn't the way songs are recorded in Hollywood today. They're recorded in advance, and for the actual filming, the players go through the action in time with the music which is played back through loudspeakers.
 Indeed, that's the way this par ticular scene is done. The orches- tra you'll see will merely be going through the motions. The accom- paniment, and Shelly's singing, al- ready have been recorded. But in this case the trick is justified be- cause the off-stage orchestra is ne- cessary to the story. It is conducted by Alan Mowbray.
 One of the supporting actresses in this picture is Lee Patrick, who's well known to Broadway audiences She was hired by RKO when she was appearing in Stage Door," RKO also bought the screen rights to that stage hit.
 But now to her astonishment Miss Patrick finds herself working in Music for Madame" while Stage Door" is being filmed on an adjacent sound stage. Holly wood is like that.

JAPANESE OPEN
 BIG OFFENSIVE
tcontinued from Page D

(Continued from Page D machine gun nests hidden thickly in the forbidding peaks Of the mountains.
 Military communiques intimated that the biggest offensive operation, for the present, would center north of the Nankow Pass. Japanese as. serted that they had men not only at Nankow, where the i6.mile pass through the mountains starts, but at near Huaiai, i0 miles northwest of 1t. This meant that big forces of Chinese in the mountains were in danger of being trapped and over- whelrned if they were defeated.
 From the Kalgan area, reports showed, the Japanese already were moving southeastward along the Peiping railroad, moving fast, with their first objective as Hsuanhua ie miles southeast of Kalgan, thence they would continue down the rail. road another 70 miles to join their men ct Hualai.
 There seemed no doubt that jap- anese thought they were about to win c big victory in the Nankow area.
