She has since ap- peared in Vanity Fair, Vogue, Stage, the New Yorker, and has written skits as well as adapted one play from the French, pro- duced tunsuccessfully, she hastens to say) by the Theater Guild.
 Bette Davis didn't know it at the time she got herself loaned to Goldwyn for this picture. but it's bringing her back to the studio that effected her release from in- genue bondage at Warner Bros. Goldwyn now releases through RKO, where Bette's acting career had it's first real impetus with "Of Human Bondage
 Playing the role Talluiah Bank head had in the stage version, Bette looks like the Gibson girl popular in the period (circa 19OO) with her upswept pompadour, pinched waist, high-necked shirt waists. If, on the set, she looks startlingly ghost-like Gregg Toland, the cameraman, can explain it: "She has to look like a woman of 3S or 40, trying to preserve her youth. But we don't want her to look unattractiye. The white make up gets over the idea and yet keeps her fairly good-looking on the screen"

Hollywood Sights And Sounds
By Robbin coons :

HOLLYWOOD, June 6 Some years ago I read a little sketch called "Only Thirty Seven" the pity-stirring account of fading stage actress trying to reassure herself that with makeup she could play that ingenue role she needed so desperately.
 I've never forgotten it, partly because you see the tales proto- types constantly in Hollywood, mostly because Patricia Collinge wrote it memorably. I think the piece should be required reading for every stage or screen-struck girl.
 Well, Miss Collinge is in Holly wood now, but she's not at desk typing out further gems of back stage life. She's in makeup, on the set of The Little Foxes play ing the part of Birdie which she created on Broadway-Birdie, the slightly neurotic, secret drinker of the decadent southern family which Lillian Hellman's play and picture exposes for inspection.
 She was an actress before she was a writer, New Yorker via Dublin, her birthplace, and - as her satirical and "faintiy factual' literary pieces would indicate-she is a woman of fresh, rare humor
 "A long time ago. she says, T was invited into pictures. That was when I was secretly playing in the old Kalem films on the side, before players were dis graced by being billed in the movies. They told me then that pictures might grow into some thing big, but I thought, "Gra- cious, my art!" When was play ing in 'Pollyanna' had another offer, but George Tyler, my pro. ducer, didn't approve. And that was the last time anybody asked me until now. z
 Sam Goldwyn brought her out with other members of the stage troupe, to support Bette Davi. and Herbert Marshall in the filn version.
 Until The Little Foxes" sht had been in retirement at hel home in Hartford. Conn. for eigh years Her husband is Jim Smith a business man.

M The Local Theaters
STATE

Capacity attendance at Warmers State theater viewed the opening performance of the great air thriller T Wanted Wings" starring Ray Mil!and, William Holden, Wayne Morris and Brian Donlevy, and in- troducing with stirring effect the new sensation of the screen, Ver- onica Lake.
 With American air defense up- permost In our thoughts, T Want ed Wings" could not have come at a more opportune time. Besides of fering us first quality screen enter tainment, the picture gives us our first authentic glimpse of how American youth Is being trained for roles in the sky by the Army Air Corps.
 Exalting the' spirit of flying, the film takes us through the step-by- step method by which three young men, coming from different social levels, become army fliers. This is the core of the story, and around 1t Is built the drama and comedy of their private lives and their mixed- up love affairs.
 The film has been made with such astounding realism, that one actually has the sensation of flight during some of the flying sequences. Of such power and authenticity has this picture been created, one has the feeling that all these thrilling things going on before our eyes are real, not phony. Never has the screen been able to achieve this bet- ter than in T Wanted Wings"
 So, if you want thrills, romance, and drama piled breathlessly on each other in the greatest aviation story ever filmed, be sure to see T Wanted Wings at the State before the closing performances Saturday night.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents sure- fire laugh hit "Trhe Great MT. Mo- body" with Eddie Albert and Joan Leslie in feature roles supported by such favorites as Alan Hale, Will liam Lundigan and John Lite.

POLES

When William Powell and Myrna Loy are billed together, audiences are sure of laughs. But never was the promise of laughs more bounti- fully billed than in Love Crazy, their latest man -and-wife' adven. ture, which opens a four day en- gagement on Saturday at the Loew Poll Theater.
 Miss Loy becomes Jealous of Powell and decides to divorce him. Powell discovers that 6 wife can't divorce her husband If he's crazy, so sets out to convince her and all and sundry that he's mad as a March hare.
 His method takes the form of a series of screwball antics such Al chewing up photograph records and digging 6 hole in Fifth Avenue. But when the alienists are called in, the antics fool them and they take his craziness seriously and commit him to an asylum. Then Poweli'S struggles to extricate himself from his own web of deceit make him look all the crabier, until he finally escapes, dressed as & woman, to work out his salvation and be rec- onciled to his wife.
 Powell's debonair handling of the situations is engaging and hilarious, and Miss Loys performance as the wife, as usual, leaves nothing to be desired. Gall Patrick plays the "oth- CT woman" convincingly, and Jack Carson adds comedy as the rival for Powell's affections after his sep- aration. Florence Bates also will garner laughs galore for her per-
