In Hollywood

HOLLYWOOD. June l2 = The corn grows tall in the movie fields these days, tall and ripe for golden harvests.
 To be labeled "corny" was once movie dread. Stars who basked in the glow of capital-A art would have no part of picture that sug- gested the maize. Its pure corn was a devastating comment on a picture or a performance.
 Judy Canova is pure corn-and that's a compliment. Some of the big cities haven't caught on yet, but in the towns where they know what corn looks like in the fields Judy is as welcome as corn on the cob, dripping with butter, sprinkled with salt.
 Francis Lederer is Judy's lead- ing man in "Puddin' Head" When Iederer came to town, in a deli cate corn pudding He d "Au- tumn Crocus," he was all art and charm and romance. Most of his movies, even the comedies, were compounded of the same. His last film until now was "The Man l Married" in which ne played a character. Then he went with Cor nell in No Time for Comedy . From Cornell to Corn, logical step. Cornell to Canova.
 Ample quanties of corn" he says happily, produce healthy hog" (And make good ham, to boot)
 Corn is in, all right. Abbott and Costello are wholesale dealers in the old reliable staple. How are they doing? They're cleaning up. If Deanna Durbin hadn't lifted the Us mortgage, these corn cures would. After the preview of Buck Privates'' everybody said corn. 7 Some said it with a sheer. But why? Whats better than c-on-th-c, dripping with butter, sprinkled with salt?
 Ted Lewis is helping the boys dish out the corn. "Oh, Charlie" was their third picture. When the bosses looked at the crosses cn Buck Privates" they padded the budget on "Oh, Charlie and sent for Ted Lewis, merchant prince of corn. Ted says he's corny. He says he plays a "corny clarinet His specialties, his acts, all have the aroma of the golden grain, but they don't bring in chicken-feed.
 You'll find the corn in some of the smartest movies, too. Love Crazy (William Powell Myrna Loy) is loaded with it. So is One Night in Lisbon"-for what's cor nier than sex?
 Whats cornier, indeed, unless it's Mother Love ("Stella Dallas') or Courage C"Gone With the Wind" - North West Mounted Police" Sergeant York" "A Tank in the RAF,7 etc) or A Little Child Shall Lead Them (as in Penny Seren- ade,' and a hundred other movies) ?
 A fellow slips on banana peel, and it's corn-and funny.
 The villain runs off with the papers, forecloses the mortgage, and robs Mother Hubbard's cup board. The widder- woman sews late in her attic room, young love buds, and Junior needs shoes. It's all corn, a staple everybody knows and understands, and what would the movies do without it?
