Spring Near,
Signs Tell
Hollywood
Stars Are Portents
More Infallible
Than Groundhog
HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
It doesn't take the groundhog's
shadow to announce spring Is well
on its way to Hollywood. Other
signs, more infallible, are present
In abundance. For example:
James Cagney is back from a
vacation on his Marshals Vineyard
estate. He spends the coolest months
Of the year in frigid New England
and is away ahead of the first thaws.
Which leads some observers to sus-
pect that is his secret method of
staying tough.
Bette Davis station wagon has
a fresh coat Of paint and q new
set of tires.
George Brent sails for Honolulu
and Pat O'Brien is spending week
ends at his Del Mar hacienda.
Out at Warner Bros. studio they're
planting a banana plantation on
an outdoor location for "Torrid
Zone," in which Ann Sheridan re-
joins James Cagney and Pat O'Brien
for their first picture together since
Angels With Dirty Faces" Twelve
hundred bananas trees are being
moved out of the greenhouse into
the open fields in defiance of pos
sible unusual weather"
Priscilla and Rosemary Lane are
studying seed catalogues and de-
batting whether 70 plant double
petunias or tulips along that south
fence where the winter stock has
stopped blooming.
A thousand swimming pools are
being cleaned and repaired. Sports
shirt sales are up 80 per cent in
the toggery shops.
Miss Sheridan is taking sun baths.
Marriage proposals are beginning to
swamp the studio fan-mail depart
ments.
