Studios Become Proud
OF Bogus Sets
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Once shy to admit makeshifts
studios being forced by wartime con.
ditions to revert to the use of mini
atures, are giving them a publicity
buildup.
One such, described as an 18-day
chore to build, is used to stage a
bombing scene. The miniature is
125 by ITS feet, shows miles of noun
tains. dotted with farms, an airport
and an administration building, with
a military road.
Electrified toy trucks, with head
lights burning, run on concealed
tracks on the highway. Tiny search
light batteries signal the approach
by the Bits, the headlights 60 off
and the bombers, manipulated by
wires, bomb the field. Time fuses
supply the bombing, and the tiny
buildings go up in realistic flame
Helped out with double exposure
process shots and probably mirrors
the whole thing will look quite rea,
when you see 1.-THE studio hopes.

IA Stokchole
In a Studio
Can Be Trying
by HAROLD HEFFERNAN.
HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
Temperature on stage at the
Samuel Goldwyn Studios must have
been 100 degrees or more-and from
the looks of the actors it could have
been even hotter.
william Bendix and his stoke
hole gang, wet and filthy. are SHOW
cling ton after ton Of coal into the
roaring furnaces for a scene in "The
Hairy Ape" film version Of Eugene
O'Neills play.
More steam," yells Director AL
Santell, turn up those flames and
blacken Bendix up some more" The
steam pours in and a makeup man
hurries to apply more glycerin and
coal dust to Bendix's face and body.
This is one Of the films key scenes,
where Susan Hayward, spoiled play
girl returning on a freighter from
Lisbon, insists on seeing how the
men in the stokehole work. She's
dressed in an immaculate white
dress and is accompanied by John
Loder, who plays the second en-
gineer. She stands all day in the
grimy set and is Mortified by the
brutality Of Bendix. you ape-you
hairy ape!" she screams at him and
runs from the stokehole.
Over and over again the scene is
rehearsed and photographed and at
4 o'clock every one appears ex-
hausted. Another rehearsal is called,
but this time Susan's high heel
catches in the stairway and she slips
and falls. A possible accident is
averted when Bendix rlshes in and
catches her.
There's a sigh Of relief from Jules
Levey, who is producing the picture,
and from Director Santell - until
Miss Hayward stands up again. The
| glycerin and cork dust from Ben
dix's body have made a neat black
design on her white gown. There is
a moment of silence and then Sam
tell whispers: 20. K, every one,
we're through for the day."
Gregory Peck is playing Father
Francis Chisholm in the film version
Of A. J. Cronin's The Keys of the
Kingdom and this is one Of the
early scenes of the story being pro-
duced on a Goth Century Fox stage.
The scene is a small room at Holy
well University, which Chisholm is
attending. He realizes he is too
much in love with Tynecastle lass
named Nora to spend vacation time
away from her, as his aunt has
suggested.
Chisholm is pacing the floor,
thinking of Nora. The far-of1
whistle Of train-same train that
Evening star., 1944-02-25

runs past Noras door--isn't helping
the emotional situation any. He
confdes TO his pal. Angus Mealy
Vincent Price, that he Is about
to 60 AWOL, or reasonable fac
simile Of same.
I'm going home!" shouts CHS
holm. He dashes into furious ac-
ton, seizes a suitcase from under
the bed, wrenches 1t open, rushes
to the bureau, snatches up some
shirts and begins to cram them
into the bag.
Take it easyl Take it easy,
man." chides Director John Stahl
II don't want you to catch this
train: The next one will do"
Lovely Lynn Bari thinks Benny
Goodman Is great guy and he
has a wonderful band and he blows
a terrific trumpet, but as a dancer
phooey!
You'd think man who can
pack SO much rhythm into q
clarinet would save a little for his
feet" Lynn tells her audience of
cast and crew on the set of Sweet
and Low Down." which picture
also stars Goodman and his band
"But that's not the case. Those
brogans Of his just don't under
stand the meaning Of the word"
Lynn, who's dressed SO as to make
anybody's glasses seem rose-tinted,
goes into a Leon Enrol, rubber
kneed walk, while her audience
roars. "See what dancing with the
King Of Swing did for me?" She
demands. I'VE danced only 10
minutes, but for Of them Benny
used my toes as a jumping of
point.
Remember the dance contest for
orchestra leaders at the Palladium
10 few months ago? Benny chose
me as his partner. We won q prize,
all right, the consolation prize. A
loving cup. I use it for . thimble. {"
Goodman refuses to be ungallant.
Bowing low, he says: mo man
could keep his feet on the ground
when he was dancing with Lynn

That is the substance Of a late
breakfast conversation with War;
rant Officer Ben Washer whose
Job for the last two years has been
traipsing up and down the world
with This Is the Army"
w. o. Washer, one of the more
suave practitioners of the art Of
promotion and a modest man,
makes no pretense Of being an ex-
pert on world geography. But there
is eXpertness, nevertheless, in his
talk of what American drama
writer's refer to broadly as "the pro-
vinces" in England, also Scotland
and Ireland. Place names in the
English country come to his tongue
as readily as once did Columbus,
Ohio, Denver, st. Paul and Spokane.
More readily, indeed, since his as
sociation with Irving Berlin and the
$50 other members of This Is the
Army abroad have made the
homeland stopovers seem far away
and long ago.
This Is the Army" will leave
w. o. Washer an even more in
formed man before it's tour, and
his, reaches an end. At an un-
specified date, it will travel what
he calls "the North African circuit. "
The date of the journey of the
troupe is no more unspecified than
just what is included in the North
African circuit.
That whole lack Of specificity is
one of the amazing contrasts in
ones new and old experiences in
talking with former press rep
resentatives who find themselves
in the armed services and suddenly
home again. They once were the
glibbest fellows in the world. Now
they ask the questions, most of
them related to what has been
going on in the theater-in which
their interest seems alternately
academic and defensive against
having to answer unanswerable
questions.
Whatever questions are answered
are the ones they ask!
When it opens its Washington en-
gagement on Monday, "Jacobowsky
and the Colonel" will have a CO.
author listed with Franz Werfel. He
will be no less person than S. N.

Clare Stays In ItoIy

Washington, Dec. 21-CUP)-Fif- teen weary and sniffling congress men, home from 8 tour of European battlefronts. reported today that the war is "a good deal tougher than the American people think it iS."
 The Is congreSsmen, all suffering from colds, sore threats and ex- treme weariness, were part of IT, member group of House Military Affairs Committee members who went abroad to survey the war situ- ation at first hand.
 Two remained in Europe. Rep. Matthew J. Merritt, D., N. Y, act ing chairman at the beginning of the the trip was left in Paris with an attack of pneumonia, and Rep. Clare Boothe Luce, R., Conn, stay ed in Florence, Italy, reportedly suffering from ear trouble. Com mittee members said Merritt's con- dition was good.
 The returning members withheld formal statements pending a full report to Secretary of War Henry L.. Stimson and Army Chief of Staff Gen. George c. Marshall. However, they told reporters on their arrival home last night that the army was doing an exceptionally fine" over all job in Europe.
 The group toured western Eu- ropean battlefrontS prior to the present German offensive and then went to Italy.
