 Hollywood, VI All of 8 sudden, 1t seems, yesterdays child stars have grown up. Matured, at least, into . bunch of ingenues and juveniles, and the startling thing Is the sud- denness of their transitions.
 Stubborn studios will keep @ girl in short skirts and hair ribbons as long as possible, even resorting to camera tricks to make her appear smaller than she is. Then one day her type is changed and In her very next picture she's Q cigarette-smok- ing divorcee or a curvesome cutie in the arms of some aging matinee idol.
 Deanna Durbin, now Mrs. Vaughn Paul, is one who has been brought up, cinematically, a great deal more gradually and gracefully than most. It was only couple of years ago, after long deliberation in the high councils of Universal, that she was allowed @ chaste kiss from Robert Stack in "First Love-" By the time 'Nice Girl" came along, the studio was willing to add & provocative question mark to the title. to reveal her as e glamorist, and to let her have c sip of champagne.
 But the Scenarists for her current production, Almost An Angel" went out of bounds when they wrote in Q sequence requiring Miss Durbin and her co-star, Charles Laughton, A.s s.nk Sl,u,t,k %aoaAl,a., n,4 a ta,,.e aF Manhattan night clubs. "Tipsy" was the term used, but 1t was too strong for the studio and the script has been changed.
 JUDY LEAVES MICKEY
 And look at Judy Garland. It seems scarcely any time since she was little" Dorothy in "The Wiz ard of O." even though Metro inagicians nearly went crazy trying to make her appear sufficiently childish. Launched as an oomphy deb after that, she still caused plenty of headaches by rapidly out growing Mickey Rooney. Each of their pictures together was reported to be their last, and Judy's own im- patience indicates that the team really will split when they've fin- ished Life Begins for Andy Hardy"
 Meanwhile, Judy has been getting around. Her engagement has been announced to Musician Dave Rose, ex-husband of Martha Kaye.
 Being only 5 feet 2 inches tall, Rooney still looks reasonably ad- olescent, but he doesn't behave that way. Smokes big cigars, has lots of dates, and once competed for the favor of Diana Lewis, who married William Powell. Rooney writes songs, knows the movie business inside out, plans to become e director or pro- ducer. or maybe an agent. when he stops acting.
 BIC BOY NOW
 Jackie Cooper is e juvenile who's generally supposed to be older than he really Is because he has had such c long career at the top in pictrre".

In Hollywood

Also because he Is poised and nat. ural youngster with more perspec- tive than a good many established adults. Cooper will be 1S Sept. IS. Apparently he will move into the ranks of leading men and probably several years earlier than most. His best gal, Bonita Granville, already has proceeded him in Movietown's realm of romance.
 Miss Granville is an ingenue now, and so is Jane Withers, who sud- denly seemed to toss off the char. acter and contours of Q chubby kid comedienne. Like Miss Durbin, Jane has gone through Q first-party -dress and first-kisS progression, but the proof of her development is that the other day her name was added to the list of 20th-Fox actresses who are eligible for publicity leg-art and glamor pictures.
 Freddie Bartholomew, who bean- poled to an astonishing height, Is a character Juvenile these days. And he has won what seems to be 6 final lawsuit which will allow him and his Aunt Millicent to keep all his earnings hereafter.
 Hollywood -- Behind the screen l: When torrid love scenes are required in pictures, an actor and actress who are already married in private life always are more embarrassed than players who re virtual strngers. That's the way 1t Is with Jeanette Macdonald and Gene Raymond in "Smilin' Through" Other day Di- rector Frank Borzage impatientiy broke up a clinch and said, Don't kiss her as though you were already married; kiss her as though you were in lovel"
 Dalton Trumbo sold his new novel, "The Remarkable Andrew" to Par amount and then was hired to write the Screen-play. At first, that seemed e great piece of luck because authors seldom gte 6 chance to adapt their own stuff. Trumbo, how. ever, has been ordered to knock out all the war business and the delightfully."- presented isolationist philosophy. He's sweating blood. . After Steve Fisher sold T Wake Up Screaming" to 20th-Fox that studios first move was to switch the locale from the movie capital to New York. It seems that murders can't happen there.

BILLY THE KTD'
 AT LOEW'S POLL
TechnicOIOr Western Starr ring Robert Taylor Starts
 Tomorrow

All the action of the best loved picture of them all-the western plus the beauties of the finest tech- nicolor production to reach the screen and an outstanding por- trayal by Robert Taylor, make Billy the Kid" one of the most remark. able bits of film entertainment viewed this year. The Metro Mayer hit opens Q four day engagement tomorrow afternoon at the Loew Poll Theater.
 Taylor's horsemanship and easy manner in the outdoors give cree dence to the stories of his riding exploits since boyhood days in Ne- braska. He Is playing the kind of role that he has been begging to do for years, and he shows It. Brian Donlevy, too, performs brilliantly in his role as Taylor's friend, who ultimately is forced to q showdown with him. It's easily his best work since "The Great McGinty".
 Taylor, in the title role, enters the story with 8 record as a killer, and his first thrilling act Is to free 0 guitarist and singer from jail. He considers the fellow good luck and from that point on takes him every- where with him.
 Tn making the jail-break, how ever, he has out-maneuvered the sheriff, Q tool of Dan Hickty, boss fone of the range gangs. Hickey immediately persuades Billy to join his outfit. After his first "Job," starting 8 stampede of an English rancher's stock, Billy quits Hickey and swings over to the Englishman.
 Donlevy, as foreman for the late ter, and Mary Howard, as Donlevy's fiancee, have much to do with the reforming of Billy that follows. But when Hickey's men shoot Billy's guitarist and then kill his English boss, he goes wild in his demand for revenge.
 Donlevy and the girl try to curb him, even having him thrown in jail, but Billy escapes and succeeds in getting" all the Hickey gang concerned, ending up with Hickey himself. Donlevy, meanwhile, has been sworn in as Q deputy to halt Billy's laWlessness. In Q showdown between the two, Billy, slow on the draw for the first time in his life, is killed.
 Highlisht scenes are many. but the stampede of l,500 wild cattle is one of the masterpieces of the screen.
 Miss Howard, Ian Hunter, Gene Lockhart Lon Clancy, Jr. and Henry ONeill give Taylor splendid support and turn in fine perform. ailces.
 On the same program Is another smash hit, "The Bride Wore Crutches" with Lynne Roberts and Ted North.
 Tonight is positively your last chance to see one of the greatest pictures of all time, the reissue of 'tMata Hari" starring Greta Garbo as the Temptress of the Secret Serv- ice. The second big hit is the first run showing of "The Big Boss" starr. ing Otto Kruger, John Litel and Gloria Dickson.
 A congag championship contest vii lbe held on the stage of the LoeW Poll Theater on Wednesday evening. Any teams wishing to enter the competition may do SO by filling out an entry blank ct either the box office or managers office. Tn addi- ton to the contest there will be an all.star vaudeville program featur- ing senor Castalda and his orches.- tra.

 It'll be all over between Sonia Henie and 20th-Fox with the wind- up of "Sun Valley serenade." No quarrel: it's just that her contract, If continued, would call for more money than the studio will pay. A few close friends of Bette Davis believe she's going to have baby, and that's why work has been held up on "The Little Foxes"
