Topping all Hollywood-made pro-

Elaborately engraved diplomas of
honor issued in favor of Orson
Welles and Walt Disney, respec-

by Manager Max Gomez on behalf
of R-K-O Radio as the distributor Of
both prize winning films, which had
the distinction of being the only

His Home Is Gone

News that the stone house in
which he was born has been blasted
off the face of the Island of Malta
has been received by Joseph Calleia
on the set of Paramount The
Glass Key" in which he plays an
important role.
Calleia, contrary to popular belief,
is not Italian, but the son of Eng
lish and Spanish parents, who, ac-
cording to the cablegram received by
the actor, have fled to the famed
catacombs deep in the island. Calleia
was born in the town of Notable on
Malta.
The actor is head of the Malta
War Relief organization in the
United States, he disclosed. There
are approximately 10000 Maltese in
this country. They have raised
more than SIS 900 to date for the
relief of the island folk. Malta , is
under almost constant lombard
ment from the air, with most of the
population of the island living in the
catacombs in which the Phoenicians
hid from the Turks centuries ago.

Artists Sketches
Help Directors
Plan Film Scenes

The talents of many varied ex-
perts are required in the making
of a motion picture. But offhand
you might be excused for wonder
ing what business a free-hand artist
might find to keep him busy day in
and day out at a movie studio. Still
he does. Many free-hand artists
do. in fact.
This fellow is not the one con-
But he is on hand all the time.

who wants help in vSuaGzing a
scene about to be filmed
When the director calls for aid
the studio artist whips out his pen
Gil and dashes off an atmosphere
sketch" in the manner of the two
shown on this page. And the di-
rector then has better-than-fair
notion of what his scene will look
like after the camera has recorded
it on celluloid
Such sketches also prove a great
aid to the cameraman himself, on
many occasions, giving him a visual
idea of just what it is that the di-
rector wants him to get into that
particular scene of the photoplay.
Artists at some of the major Hol-
lywood studios often turn out COM
plete scripts of atmosphere sketch
es," illustrating the entire action of
a film, before shooting starts.
And at least one Hollywood artist
makes mis- living as a gag man"
Sketching the action of the comedy
scenes he conceives instead of writ
ing them.
Recently the Hollywood Society of
Motion Picture Artists and Illus
traitors held an exhibition of "atmos-
phere sketches" many of the items
displayed winning high praise from
critics.

wicked hussies had to be brunets.
Remember Theda Bara? Nita

Later dark hair came into good
repute. The movie makers decided
that brunets and redheads could
be nice girls, too. Miss Colbert. Miss
Shearer, Frances Dee, Dolores Del
Rio and others proved it.
But today's list indicates that the
current crop of stars is predom-
inantly blond. Out of some 40
name" actresses. more than half
are blonds. There are 10 brunets
and 7 redheads.
Beauty experts admit to a real
shortage in blonding materials and
are convinced that brunets through
out the Nation, as we'll as in Holly

girls won't be dyeing-for their

Glen Echo Park
Opens New Season
Next Saturday

Spring is here, all right. If you
have any doubts left, you can cast
them aside. The first bulletin from
Glen Echo Park has arrived, an
nouncing the opening Of the popu-
lar resort for the new season next
Saturday afternoon at l o'clock.
The bulletin reveals that the
more than so grand amusement at
fractions at Glen Echo Park, includ-
ing nine thrill rides guaranteed to
produce thrills" have been polished
and oiled and are ready again for
the crowds they always attract.
Despite an increase in the cost of
operation, the park management
announces, no increase in prices fol
any of the attractions is contem-
plated.
In the Spanish Garden Ball Room,
which opens for the season Satur-
day night, Paul Kain and his or
chestra will be on hand for a third
season. His featured singer this year
will be Iris O'Brien.
In addition to other attractions,

All old-timers. Not down and

their reunion evoked exclamations

So Hollywood Doesn't Talk.
Every studio has several still on
its rolls. Nearly every director has
several regular pensioners he tries
to work into pictures wherever he
can. The studios give them bit
parts whenever they can. Some are
informally guaranteed so many
weeks work every year, enough to
keep going, and draw pay checks
every week whether they are used or
not

to cadge from their old friends, have
been found panhandling for nickels

familiarity from movies of a few
years ago.
Hollywood is busy place. Every
body is preoccupied carving out a
career for himself. If you're not in
the swim, you're soon forgotten.
That's why Hollywood doesn't talk
about its has-beens.
Another reason is that nobody who
