Deanna Durbin Risks
DIVING Scene in Film

Jumping fully-dressed into chilly
waters meant more than Just a
comedy scene in Universal's IT'S
a Date" for Deanna Durbin.
1t was the first stunt ever per-
formed by the star. whose exploit
is now on view at the Beverly
theatef.
Deanna and Waller Pidgeon,
both attired in evening clothes,
spent halliday in the cold water.
AS a precaution in case Of re-
takes of the scene, four identical
evening gowns were designed for
Deanna. and Pidgeon had three
additional suits ready. However,
one change was all the actress and
actor required for the stunt.

Garner Wants
No Part Now
Thinks Stage Set
For F.D.R. Again

WASHINGTON Vice president
John n. Garner was reported today
to have told friends that he wants
no part of the Democratic national
convention which opens in Chicago
week from Monday.
Garner. il was said, expressed
the opinion that the convention
would be "cut and dried" for
third term for President Roosevelt
and that he preferred to stay in
Washington. provided congress did
not adjourn. II congress does
adjourn. he probably will go to
Uvalde. Tex. his home.
Gamers reported reluctance to
attend the convention led TO specu-
lation on whether he would permit
his name TO be presented as a can
didate for the presidential nomi-
nation. Some OF his close friends
said that the decision might be
left with the Texas delegation,
whose as members were instructed
TO vote for Garner but to refrain
from joining any stop Roosevelt
movement.
Garner recently was reported to
have expressed the belief that Mr..
Roosevelt would be a candidate for
a third term and that it would be
useless to try to stop him. He was
understood TO have conveyed his
views to Postmaster James A.
Farley. who Is also seeking the
Democratic nomination.
