 Just before the camera was ready to grind again, Director Ford Step- ped into the scene where Shirley already was sprawled across the lap of Miss Lang. Over them hovered a microphone. He gave Shirleya a single, brisk spank. "Okay fp1 sound?" he asked the technician al the control board.
 "Okay," said the sound man.

 The camera rolled, and Miss Lang began to spank. She was a little more used to it now, and fortified by the reassurances of Mama Tenn. pie. The Lang wrist was not lirnr this time. She really laid it on As she counted the blows, Miss Temple added couple of heartfelt oucheS.

Tomorrow brings to the Poli thea ter, 8 duo of stars, each the most popular in their own sex, and ap- bearing together for the first time together. We are referring now to Robert Taylor, the secret heart throb of millions of American wo- men, and Jean Harlow, the one and only platinum blonde.

HOILYWO co
By Paul Harrison

Hollywood = Strong men stood tense, hands clenched, mouths grim. Women twisted their handkerchiefs, nervously patted at their lips, watched in awed fascination. As tress June Lang, her face mask of almost desperate resolution, raised an arm, brought it down smartly, palm first.
 Whack!
 "Ouch!" yelped Shirley Temple.
 The Wonder Tot was being spanked. It was an epochal moment in the history of the cinema. A block away, in his slick Sanctum, Daryl zanuck may have been pacing in a torrent of apprehension. But no telephone tinkled on Stage 12. < There was no reprieve.
 Smack!
 It was a sound such as will be heard around the world. Probably ssit will shake the very foundations Nof celluloid idolatry.
 Thwack!
 What will the millions of moth- CTS say?
 Whack! s'as"'
 What will the millions of chil- , dren think?
 Twelve times the hand of Mise Lang rose, hesitated in split instant of reluctance, then de- scended on the sturdy little derrierc of the Movies Marvel Moppet.
 "Cut!" commanded Director John Ford. The camera stopped. Miss Lang stopped. The onlooker S breathed again. Miss Temple e 'wriggsAi off the elder actress lap and giggled.
 A Crisis for June
 June, dear" admonished MT. < Ford, in sarcastically patient tones, what were you doing-dusting her of? Your wrist was as limp as s though you were waving goodby to someone. Now let's try it again and spank as though you meant Mit."
 g It was terrible experience for Miss Lang. Why, Astrid AllWyn, ], in "Dimples" had jeopardized her career merely by calling the Z Charm Child a brat and threaten ing to box her ears. And Sara < Haden, in Captain January" re- signed herself to the loss of most of her fans before she dared to ! give the Magnificent Mite shaking. So you can imagine how Miss < Lang felt, having to spank, and spank hard, the No. Box-O Office Star of the World. It was, indeed, a rather difficult decision for everybody. When Big Boss Zanuck saw the rushes of Wee Willie Winkle," he pondered Z over sequence in which an intract- able and evasive Miss Temple, hav- ing fallen in a mud-puddle and trampled petunia, bed, was merely reprimanded by her screen mother, Miss Lang. Doesn't ring true. Do something about it." said zanuck.
 Do something about it." echoed { Zanuck assistant.
 Do something about it." ordered Producer Gene Markey.
 Gotta do something about it." mourned Director Ford.
 T know what I'd do about it." volunteered Shirley Temples moth- CT. "I'd turn the child over my knee and give her good spanking" Spank Her!
 So they put it up to Zanuck. He said, "Okay, spank her" "Spank her." echoed his assistant. Spank her." said Markey to Ford.
 Spank her." said Ford to June Lang.
 So June spanked her. It was agreed that there should be l2 y smacks, with the Super Mite count ing them aloud, thus: ". six, ven-ouch!-nine ouch! - ten, eleven, twelve"
 Of course there were no rehear- sals. It was assumed that Miss Lang knew how to administer a spanking, and certainly Miss Temple knew how to receive one. She has had her share of them. Mrs. Tenn pie makes no secret of the fact that Shirley, "iust an ordinary little girl
