 Hollywood.-A few cattle run on Agoura Mesa. Wild barley grows on some of 1t. The rest belongs to grasshoppers and to history-n1ovie history, that it,
 Agoura Mesa is one of Holly woods favorite battlegrounds. Cae- sar's legions, Napoleon's cavalry, Cornwallis' redcoats, Grants Fed erals and Foch's poilus fought, bled and died there. The hills around have been charged by everybody from Attila to Teddy Roosevelt. Now the mesa is the scene of Gus ter's Last Stand.
 The place rents for $l0o day, very reasonable considering its scenic adaptability and nearness to Hollywood. It's circled by moun- tains, and today the Malibus are doubling for the Black Hills and the SierraS are considered satisfac- tory likeness of the Rockies. Not the least advantage is the fact that in no direction can the camera catch a telephone pole, railroad, gas sta- tion, or hot dog stand.
 IN FOG
 Persistent fog and Errol Hymns Strep throat have been making 8 lot of trouble for Warner Brothers and Director Raoul Walsh, but the delays also brought prosperity to just about every cowboy, stunt man, extra and Indian in town, together with whatever MeXi- cans, Filipinos and Hawaiians can stick on a horse. They get $11 day with an extra $35 for every deliberate fall.
 There are a few tirnid ones, such as the daredevil who always gall lops along about 50 yards behind the pack. Members of the company call him The Reluctant Dragoon.
 Two riders were killed in differ ent phases of the wild charge in which some 600 Indians sweep over the brow of a hill and encircle Custer and his troopers. Serious ac- cidents almost invariably occur in these big, violent super -doopers. On Q single day, 20 riders were hurt, four seriously, in deliberate falls. One of these died later. The pre- vious tragedy came when the stunt CT was impaled on his own saber.

Hardy Family enthusiasts have a new picture to cheer about in the latest of the group, life Begins for Andy Hardy" which opened this aft- ernoon at Warmers Strand theater as the headliner of the star-stud- ded program.
 Life Begins for Andy Hardy" strikes one of the most important notes ever to be introduced in these pictures, principally the problems that face the youngster upon grad uation from high school. whether to 90 on to college or to 90 to work Is the problem that faced Andy, as 1t faces so many other youngsters.
 Andy chose to leave home and work for Q month, to thus make e clearer decision. What happens when he cuts family ties to go to New York, get a job and 90 out on his own, makes for one of the most gripping as well aS entertaining films of the group.
 Mickey Rooney, as Andy, has his

best opportunity to date in his transition from the wisecracking, high-stepping small town boy, to a sober, serious young man who dis covers that life isn't at all what he had dreamed.
 For the third time Judy Garland appears as guest star with the Har- dy Family. All of the other favor ties are assembled. Lewis Stone is again the sympathetic, understand ing Judge Hardy, with Fay Holden as Ma Hardy. Sara Haden appears as Aunt Milly and Ann Rutherford as Polly Benedict.
 "Dr. Kildare's Wedding Day., lat est medical adventure in the lives of Lew Ayres, Lionel Barrymore, La- raine Day and Red Skelton is the co-feature of the program and is truly 8 treat not to be missed by anyone. Newcomer to the series is Nils Asther.

though, there has been a decrease in injuries because the riders have been reduced to less than 300 and most of the excitement is provided by a score of top professionals. NOISE NEXT
 The wlloops and shooting will be dubbed in later because it's neces- sary for Walsh's orders to dominate the current din. After a take, as the dust still swirls and fallen men get and catch their horses, the di- rector roars: TWO men are down out there. Get busy, you first aid crews!"
 Two anbulances streak for a cou- pie of small groups surrounding the casualties. Presently there's a re- port: "They're okay. Ones skinned up and a horse stepped on the oth- CT. Nothing busted. It's Benny Corbett. He says next scene give him q fall he can get paid for. This one he did for free"
 Walsh grins and says: Benny did that So I wouldn't overlook him. Know him l5 years. Toughest little cowboy in pictures. Okay, Russ give Benny fall next tiIne."

POLL

clark Gable and Lana Turner, who stand pretty well up in Holly wood circles when it comes to mas ctlline and feminine glamour" are teamed for the first time in "EzonlIy- Tonk," which opens four day en- gagement on Friday ct the Loew Poll theater.
 Gable plays the role of a two- listed ingratiatiSg card sharp in Q gaudy, slam -baSag gold camp, while Miss Turner appears as g prlrn Boston school teacher who came West to find her father, but instead discovered perilous adventure and romance.
 The swift-moving story of gum play, Gables battle for political power, and the highly uaconven- tional love story seemed to leave an emotional impact with critics who have previewed the picture. Judged from almost any angle the film rates tops in entertainment.
 Gable is reminiscent of his finest previous roles, especially those in "Gone with the Wind' and Boom Town" His part Is that of a shrewd rnanipulator of card games with keen political aspirations and a mcrdant, biting sense of humor. Some of the most hilarious scenes in the film emanate from his se- uuences with his side-kick, Chill Wills, as they are run out of one camp for fleecing the citizens and head for their last stand at Yellow Greek.
 An outstanding supporting cast includes such favorites as Frank Morgan, Claire Trevor, Marjorie Main and Albert Dekker.
 The second smash hit on the pro- gram is Man At Large" with Mar jorie Weaver.
 Attractions current at Loew's Poll include "Lady Be Good" starring Eleanor Powell, Ann Sothern and Robert Young, and We Go Fast" with Lynn Bari, Alan Curtis and Sheila Ryan. This program ends its engagement at Loew's tomorrow night, so if you haven't already seen 1t make plans to do so at once.
 Every Saturday morning an Early Bird Show for Defense Workers is presented at Loew's Poli theater. Doors open at 9:45 a. m. and the complete double feature bill Is shown at regular prices.

offering theatergoers a gay and sparkling comedy of marriage Rom aid Colman's new vehicle, My Life with Caroline" opened three day engagement at Warmers State the- ater this afternoon and according to reports 1t won instant nomination as one of the best audience pictures of the year.
 The star swings away from drama to sustain q delightful mood of to- lerant good hufnor through this en- gazing piece of screen fare, and 1t easily marks his best comedy char acterization to date. He portrays a wealthy but busy publisher who is unable to spend as much time as he would like with his lovely but flighty wife.
 Accordingly, the wife feels neglect ed and misunderstood ood-which makes her easy prey for the wealthy young men she encounters at fashionable resorts. Each of these gentlemen readily persuades her that the only sensible thing to do is for her to divorce her money y-grubbing hus- band and marry him, and several times she prepares to do so.
 Colman's ingenious handling of the situations, his adroit counter attack and his deft interference with the conspirators' plans, all make for the humor and the gay complications of the plot.
 Brilliantly aiding Colrnan in his portrayal is vivacious Anna Lee, English film favorite who makes her American debut in this offering as his scatterbrained spouse and who turns in charming performance Charles Winninger, Reginald Gar diner and Gilbert Roland top the splendid supporting cast.
 The greatest skating extravagan- ga ever staged comes to the screen during the presentation of the sec- ond big hit "Ice Capades" starring James Ellison, funsters Jerry Co., lonna and Barbara Jo Allen (vera Vague) Dorothy Lewis sensational skating star and featuring the Ice Capades Company with information al known skating stars.
