Rita Hayworth wants a man-to
dance with her in Cover Girl"
That's what is holding up the pic
ture. She requires a man to help
her out on some of the four or five
dance numbers.
1--WE. don't want a 'name,'" Rita
tells me in her dressing room at
Columbia. Just a man who is tall,
and can dance. It's a girls picture
but can't dance all the time by
myself. And we're having the hard
est time finding a man." Which are
words never expected to hear from
Miss Hayworth's rosebud mouth.
With an eye to doing the boys
favor, and to save thousands from
heartbreak and a fruitless trip to
Hollywood, ask Rita if there is
anything else the boy must have to
be her partner.
eyes," says Miss Hayworth, "there
is. He must have dark hair. like
only men with dark hair" With a
lead like this. I hastily drop the
dancing partner for the man Rita
hopes will be her partner for life.
the one and only gorgeous hunk of
man. You said it, Victor Mature.
II hear from him frequently" Rita
tells me. II can't tell you where he
is but he's somewhere on convoy
duty and seeing plenty of action. I
don't know when he'll be back in
this country again, but We'll be mar
ried just as soon as it is convenient
for us to marry" Rita has ring
from Victor, and even behind the
dark glasses she wore for our chat,
I could see her eyes light with love
at the mention of Coast Guardsman
Mature.
Lately Rita has dined tete-a-tete
with that other brunette hunk of
man, Orson Welles, who is a glut-
ton for glamour gals. Rita assures
me there is nothing to the current
talk that she has ditched Mature
for triple threat Orson.
1--WE only seen Orson a couple of
times" she says. 1--WE enjoy talking
together. No, he didn't ask wheth-
er Victor would mind if we went
out; in fact, he hasn't mentioned
him. But Victor wouldn't mind, I
know that"
Welles is the only man with whom
Rita has been seen in public since
the departure Of Mature.
Most evenings" she tells me, II

, Mrs. Rose" (The companion with
whom she lives) Mrs. Rose is a
friend of Victor's, and 'tis rumored
locally that Rita asked her to live
with her so they could talk all the
time about Miss Hayworth's hance,
and to prove to Vic that If she
| couldn't see him in Hollywood she
| wouldn't see any other man with
the exception of Orson apparently.
The two girls live in a small apart
ment to which Rita moved when
she gave up the house she shared
with her ex-husband, Ed Judson.
Miss Hayworth was recently sus-
pended by Columbia Pictures for
her refusal to star in MY Friend
Curly" Every one walked out of
this except dancing caterpillar"
she says with small giggle. Dur
ing the time of Rita's pout with the
studio the girl who has done the
singing for her in all her musicals,
Nan Wynn, was signed by Columbia.
And 1t was sort of understood by
the people who were supposed to
understand that unless Rita re-
ported back to work pronto, Miss
Wynn would not only do the sing
ing but bring her face and figure
along with tin Rita's pictures. AS
was saying, Miss Hayworth is now
back in the studio for "Cover Girl"
However, the publicity anent her
singing ghost irritated Rita and
put her on her mettle. In future
she says she will sing all her own
songs, and to this end she is taking
lessons two hours a day.
So unless there is switch in poll
cy, from now on, the voice warbling

from Rita's mouth will actually be
hers. As we said before, the real
problem Of her next picture is to
find a personable dancing partner
for the girl. I suggested her IA
ther, with whom she used to dance
in pre-movie days.
But I've outgrown him." says
Rita. Hes too short for me now.
I'm S feet 6 inches tall"
The first film on Rita's schedule
after the war is a musical with
Mature. II don't care whether I
have to 60 to his studio or he comes
here" says Rita with firm clos
ing Of lips. "Al I know Is, We'll
get together"
And that, boys, regret to add,
Is that.

Saroyan.
Incidentally, this department s
passion for keeping up with Saroyan
has endowed it wit ha remarkably
teise line to bring it up to date
on what the Army and marriage, his
latest adventures, have done to
him.
The line is that of a remarkably
able young Army captain who just
ran across Saroyan-an old &C
quaintance-in the course of their
common military duties.

meatless dinner, has happened to

Fstabrook will have done when
people say such things is to have
been the fellow who took up the
writing of The Human Comedy
where Saroyan left Off He did the
treatment, the adaptation, Of the
story for the camera. He kept the
spirit of Saroyan and Saroyan's re-
markable characters alive during the
always difficult, sometimes impos-
sible process of transfer from the
written page to the people who sit in
movie audiences. He is truly re-
markable fellow in the collaboration
of genius which created the most
human, humanly proportioned and
moving movie since Hollywood be-
came the cinema capital.
Estabrook is no stranger to ex-
cellence in movie writing. Out of
a feeling for life as deep, If not so
eloquently simple as that Of Saro-
yam, he did rather spectacular
Job some IL years ago in "Cimma-
ron" After looking over all the
movie writing for that year, the
Motion Picture Academy of Arts
and Sciences decided his was the
best work, gave him its writing
award. Everyone agreed that it
was a fine piece of judgment on
the academy's part.
After putting his Oscar on the
mantel at home, Mr.. Estabrook went
right on writing. Through the years
he has been associated with some
rather excellent later pieces of
screencraft. Always he has kept
the human touch, an artist always
able to limit himself to proportions
that enabled him to write of people
as people.
Writing dramatically, however, is
not nearly SO arresting as living
dramatically and by avoiding the
latter, Estabrook has not attracted
the attention he deserved. At least
not general recognition, although
his fellow artists and his employers
in Hollywood have always known
him to be man Of great skill.
One of his finest pieces of writ
ing since "Cimmaron" was Shop
worn Angel" Of few years ago. 1t
was a picture Of great sentimental
worth, its people the right size to
appeal to the people who saw it as
millions did.
Associated with it were such
names as James Stewart, Margaret
SULLIVAN and Ernst Lubitsch and
they rather over r-shadowed the name
OF Estabrook
Now, quite unjustly, the names of
Saroyan, Mickey Rooney, Jack Jen-
kins, Frank Morgan, Clarence
Brown and several other people will
do the same in The Human Com
edy.' That, of course, is only so
far as the general public is con-
cerned. When the academy gets
around to awarding its writing prize
at the end of the year, he may re-
trieve part of his deserved distinc-
tion by sharing another literary

Cheesy Column

II has a wide sale in the West,
which always has been domesti-
cally inclined when it comes to
cheeses.
Wisconsin is another great
cheese producing state with
types OF its own that have no
superior anywhere, though OF
course cheese making is an in
dustry that flourishes in almost
every state.
The difference is in the skill
in making the cheese.
A new subject of much argu-
ment among gourmets in this
country is the quality of the
cheese of various sections of the
land.
OUR Italian-American popula-
" ton. always great consume
ers Of cheese, find the domestic
reproductions of the cheeses
they used to get from the old
country the equals of the origi-
nails except sometimes in the
matter of age.
There are Italian cheeses that
need whiskers before they taste
like anything but cardboard.
The French and Holland and
German and Belgian cheeses
and even the English are being
duplicated and / will bet IL you

ference, except perhaps on lin
