eHOLLYW Nov, IL
Charles Laughton no more than
announced his intention OF becom-
tng an American citizen than
M-G-M handed him the most typi-
cal American role he's had in
sThe Snatching of Bookie Bob by
that outstanding Yankee, Damon
Bunyon.
: The idea of Laughton as a
bookie is a laugh in itself and
there is quite a story behind the
scenes in this purchase. Earl
BALDWIN dramatized Damon's
famed Broadway fiction charac-
tiers in The Snatching Of Bookie
Bob" for a stage show. But II
won't reach the footliehts because
M-G-M "Snatched' IL first - and
Earl, TOO, for the movies.
The idea is very funny. "Bookie
Bob" is kidnapped by his sporty
friends 10 get money 10 pay him
what they owe him. While he is
keing held for ransom he makes
book for his kidnaperS, and in the
end they again owe him all the
ransom money.
Sam Marx is elected 10 produce
and il rolls Immediately.

NEVER A dull moment In
Hollywood. Now it's Bud Abb
bolt and Lou Costello who are
declining to make lost In n
Harem" at M-G-M. The boys
say the script was never sub
mitted to them, only the idea,
and they don't want to make IL.
They feel IL Is not their type of
picture.
was amused TO hear that
Lou said IL would be more suit
able for Laurel and Hardy. Bud
and Lou feel they do better for
themselves Mt Universal, their
home lot, because they were dis
appointed In ''Rio Rita"
don't know how the argyll
ment Is going to come out, since
I haven't heard his side of the
question, but the boys maintain
that Universal did not have the
right to make a second deal for
them without their permission.
Do I hear Leo the Lion roaring:
TOP ASSIGNMENT
LOTS OF praise has come to
Sam Wood during his career as a
director of top pictures, bat MOTH
ing has ever given him as much
happiness as the telephone order
from Washington. He has been
assigned TO make a government
picture with Congress as the SUBJ
ject.
Sam has been commissioned to
show that Congress is dignified

laws and how it functions. He
has asked William c. Menzies to
aid him and they will 60 TO Wash

AID TO WAR EFFORT
THRILLING TO meet Lieu
tenant Commander Thatch at
the home OF Joan Bennett and
Walter Wagner last Saturday.
The commander Is interesting
but modest and has to be cross
examined before he will talk
about his valorous deeds. He
wears the navy cross, the dis
tinguished service cross and
many other decorations, one

down between 20 and 80 Jap

.FOr Turn
To Musicals
By CHARLES GENTRY

PAkAM(JCNl - lhlO Oh lyIl-
cal treats. Crosby, Hope and
Lamour, are hitting the road
again. this time TO an appropriate
spot, Morocco. in The Road 10
Morocco, which comes 10 the
Michigan.
The Fox. al the same time. will
take us on a musical visit 10 a
colder climate where there seem
to have been a number of armed
American visitors lately. Ice
land.
We doubt very much IL our
expeditionary forces will encoun-
ter anything like Bing and Bob
do. but who expects anything
factual when these two get to-
gether?
Ten years ago an easy-going
singer with a deep dish quaver in
his voice was signed for a fea-
tured role in The Big Broadcast"
When they saw the first "rushes,"
Hollywood was certain somebody
had made a big mistake and it
wasn't until the returns came In
from the box office that they
changed their minds.
THE BIG SHOT
Today Bing is the big shot on
the Paramount lot and one of the
best-liked persons in the industry.
Not only has he risen from
comparative obscurity. but he has
helped a number of others. includ-
ing both Hope and Lamour, TO
achieve fame.
Hope came from where vaude-
vile went, and didn't amount to
much of anything until he struck
a friendship with Bing, who liked
Bobs corny gags.
OUT OF THE JUNGLE
Miss Lamour, fresh from sing
ing with hubby Herbie Rays band,
got into movies through the en-
ployeS entrance. At first II
looked like she was doomed to be
wrapped up in sarong and de-
livered TO the second-runs, until
Bing and Bob thought she would
make a beautiful "stooge" in
more ways than one.
So Lamour emerged from those
B-picture jungles and stepped into
Grade-A-Technicolor with Bing
and Bob beside her; and the three
have been together ever since.
In Road to Morocco" they
have the extra aid of Anthony
Quinn and Dona Drake. who used
to be Rita Rio of girl band notes.
The companion picture will be
Wings and the Woman" in which
Anna Neagle, the English actress.
will impersonate the famous
woman ffier, Amy Moliison.
SONIA AT FOX
It's been some time since Sonia
Henie skated across the cinematic
horizon. but here she is back on
her blades in picture called
Iceland" in which she gives the
American forces something to
dream about. A marine, in this
case John Payne. captures her
heart and provides the romance
which goes with all this spectacle
set 10 music.
The music, incidentally, Is pro-
vided by Sammy Kaye and his
swing and sway orchestra and the
numbers which they feature in the
film are pretty well known to the
Sharp set.

1941 Fuel Oil Sales Set
554 Mi|Iion-b Barrel Mark

BY the Associated Press.
Domestic sales OF fuel oil reached
the record figure Of 554, $40 900 bar
rels during l941, the Bureau of Mines
reported yesterday, q gain of II per
cent over the previous record estab-
lished in 1910.
Kerosene sales in 1941 also set q
record, 6s,s96, 900 barrels, though the
increase over 1910 was only z per
cent.
The increase in fuel oil sales was
attributed directly to demands of
railroads, gas and electric power
plants, smelters, mines, manufac-
turing industries and the armed
services. .....
Sales Of heating oil, however, were
shown to have gained only per
cent in 1941, compared with an ex-
pansion of IS per cent in 1910 over
1889, because of an unusually mild
winter in some areas in 1941.
