August Drake did nc leave New

agents and producers, or with play
Wrights, they Were reading scripts
with frenetlc absorption.
After two weeks of that compact
schedule Anette began to learn
that a Drake-Peyton hit was no
simple matter. Those incredibly
CLASSY plays that moved with
sophisticated and apparently effort
less gliding We're practically non
existent. She learned also, of the
deep respect the two actors held
for each other beneath their petty
pickering. If a part featured the
woman, August objected; if it fea-
tured the man, Larry was the first
to favor rejection.

She was right. The blond heiress

spent in the luxurious comfort
of a Manhattan apartment
where she had the expert care
of a nurse" She was bathed
every day, fed on schedule and
in general, got as much attention
as a newborn baby.
Then Kukuna was given to the
zoo. Keepers felt. that they just
couldn't let this little jungle lady
down and, although they weren't
pleased at the idea of a daily
bath, they agreed that her Sat-
urday night plunge would be
given all the trimmings right
down to a hair-set and a general
super-grooming.
AS these pictures clearly show,
Kukuna loves it once she over
comes her initial reluctance and
gets in the tub. She would stay
in the warm soapy water for
hours If the keepers would allow
it. On this score, she's different
from her fellow-chimps who shy
away from water, and regard IL
as something for drinking pur-
poses only. Bathing the other
chimpanzees on Saturday night
usually boils down to a merry
chase between the keepers and
their chattering and reluctant
charges.
Perhaps it's the novelty of
having a chimp that doesn't take
it on the lam when the baths
are ready that has made Kukuna
such a favorite among the Off
Gals. Zoo officials can only at
tribute her unusual love of water
to the pampering of her early
life. Whether she. too, viii be-
come a Saturday night revolter
when she grows a little older
remains to be seen. although the
keepers are inclined to believe
that her enthusiasm for q good
scrubbing will stick with her.
And, although the beauty-bath
of Kukuna may be bit of gag
among the keepers. the weekly
cleansing of the animals is not.
That Saturday night dousing is
as vital to their health as their
carefully watched diets. The
biggest irritation of Gagged ami
mails is fleas-and there's moth
ing like a good Saturday night
plunge to wash them away.
Although animals are not nat
urally addicted TO shower baths,
they are, nevertheless, extremely
clean. BY licking and pruning,
they are able to keep themselves
presentable.

producer wanted 10 offer a typi-
cally American setting. II is so
typical that one wonders if it is
honest to goodness American
after all.
Perhaps l should explain that
the entire script was written at
white, heat in less than six weeks,
and was put before the cameras
in another six weeks. Working
at such speed, it was probably
difficult TO achieve anything
other than an accepted idea of a
wealthy household.
Most of the scenes were shot in
Washington and the script was
begun on December 9TH, which
was Fay's birthday in real life as
well as in the motion picture.
The War Against Mrs. Had
ley" was intended as a bitter pill
10 be taken by what's left of the
isolationist ivory tower set. If
the set can be persuaded TO see
the film, they may see just how
the cure can be accomplished. 1t
is to M-G-Ms credit that with
this film they are undoubtedly
aiding in strengthening the home
front. Take my word for it, it's
a picture to see.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-09-27

the war is not against her, but
for her, and all she loves. is as
moving a bit of acting as we've
seen in many day. Mrs. Had
ley becomes a new woman and
the Axis has another active
enemy.
Part of her change comes
through the wisdom of Sara ALI

marries Mrs. Hadley's daugh-

OF course, the laurels go to
Fay Banter, who plays the part
to the hilt. The picture and the
dialogue may seem somewhat
styled in the beginning, but it
runs full speed ahead.

Hadley family is cut pretty much
to a pattern. The Incorporate

IE-~HE WAR AGAIN T
MRS. HADLEY" is a
] motion picture which in
many respects resembles Mrs.
Miniver" in that it deals so force
fully with the awakening Of the
"home front" TO fight and win
the war
Mrs. Hadley is scarcely as
winning a personality as Mrs.
Miniver, but she undergoes a
transformation that will make
her one of the most widely dis
cussed screen creations of the
present season.
To M-G.M goes the credit for
a novel departure in wartime
photoplays, and if there are any
American women left who be-
lieve the war can never spread
10 their households or affect
their personal lives, they'd better
be forced TO see The War
Against Mrs. Hadley."
Mrs. Hadley is portrayed by
Fay Banter who does an excel
lent job as q vain selfish society
woman, a wealthy Washington
widow secure behind a barricade
of family devotion, afternoon teas
and society gossip.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-09-27

Mrs. Hadley's birthday falls on
December 7, 1871, and when the
news Of Pearl Harbor comes over
the radio, she cannot understand
why she still isn't the focus of
attention from her friends and
family.
Like Mrs. Miniver, Mrs. Had
ley has a son of military age,
whose relationship to the war is
the dramatic springboard of the
story. 1t is interesting that
Richard Ney, now in the u. S.
Navy, plays Mrs. Hadley's son
with the same praiseworthy skill
that he brought to the part of
Mrs. Miniver's son.
Mrs. Hadley's son is drafted
and her debutante daughter,
played by Jean Rogers, marries
a tough Army sergeant, brought
10 the screen by Van Johnson.

Jean and they're tops and

4 YArURALNEss, which at long last
IN brings good looks out from be-
y hind a cloak of artifice and
affectation, is a style trend of the
times. Pretty soon every woman who
wants to be in the swim will be trying
it out in front OF her mirror.
If you shiver with fear that this
new look is going to strip you of all
pretensions to loveliness. look at
Dorothy Mcclure. Naturalness won
this young actress the coveted theat-
rical role of the naive girl-wife in
Claudia" one of this seasons out
standing theatrical hits.
Moreover. as vitamin-fed, pink
scrubbed, lean-limbed, sweater-and-
skirt girl, Miss Mcclure has cap
tivated Broadway, which usually pays
its homage to sophisticated glitter.
What is her formula for natural
ness? A well-thought out simplicity
from top to toe, which gives the real
you chance to come through, she
says.
For that, hair strikes the keynote.
But simple hair-do is like a simple
DRESS Lack of detail puts it severely
on its own. That's why Miss MCGUIRE
ducks her head into a basin every
three days. 1t takes that to preserve
clean blonde color and bouncing fresh
ness. The style other hair-a shoulder
length bob and pert bang - is ac-
tually no more pretentious than a
child's. But she goes to the best hair
dresser she knows to have it thinned
out and trimmed; to have weightiness
shipped out when feathery fluff is
imperilled; to have that little bang
shaped into a double-duty master
piece.
The bang can be brushed back into
the rest of her hair. or it can be curled
and run out over her brow like be-
witching awning. At night, when she
steps out, her hair does a Cinderella
act. Wound up fifteen minutes before
hand on jumbo curriers' - she fishes
out dozens of these from her enormous
carry-all bag her childish bob is
converted into mass of curls that go
in a pile to the top of her head.
