mist in the filmusical, 'Trocadero. !"
The story, they said, was all about
the movietown night club.
Fright down your alley" Pro-
dudcer Walter Colmes declared,
"A cinch. Just be yourself"
So we played the part and we've
been walking down alleys ever
since the pictures release. Not
to escape the autograph fans but
to avoid friends. Even strangers.
Yes, that's right. A star was NOT
born. Pat O'Brien anG those other
gents who play newspapermen on
the screen haven't thing to worry
about.
OLD LINE WITH NEW TWIST
After this we're goig to stick to
Shaving all day over a hot typewrit-
er instead Of makeup kit
But this acting" in the movies
was fun ia the time. Lots OF
laughs. The fun began when the
studio sent us, by special messen-
ger, the script of the picture. OF
course, the start of the film was
weeks away, but in Hollywood they
stamp RUSH" on everything.
We Immediately started rehears-
ing our lines around the house
driving Mrs. and the Riddles out
into the patio.
Our first scene. the script said
was with Ralph Morgan who
plays Sam, the veteran owner OF
the Trocadero. We come into hi:
cafe looking for column material
sit DOWN. at a table and order
a drink. Just then Sam walks by
and we say, "Sit down, Sam, and
have q drink"
Well, we rehearsed that lint
5000 different ways. BY night
fall we were saying sit down
drink, and have Sam"
Finally the greet day arrived
Mrs. j. thought we should put OF
dark glasses like all the movi'
stars wear on the way to work
We refused. "Ah," muttered Mrs
j. as we drove off to the studio
"temperament-already."
OF course the studio gatemar
didn't recognize us, and it took
six telephone calls to &c us inside
the studio. But then we didn'I
recognize the studio gateman
either
A makeup man slapped lot Of
yellow goo on our face. used a lot
of brown powder to eliminate an
extra chin, and said We were ready
for the camera. Producer Walter
Colmes met us ia the stage door
mad introduced us to Director VIII
liam Nigh.
NOT THE TYPE
This said Walter, us our
Hollywood columnist."
Director Nigh took one soul
look and siad:
He amt the type"
Nigh said he was only kidding
though. But I still doubt it.
So for three days we sweateo
under the hot lights, stumbled
through our lines, drank black
coffee, played gin rummy with
Morgan, Rosemary Lane anc
Johnny Downs between scenes. arlC
knocked out our column in a port.

Help of Public
Asked byOPA

The eigaret black market in Detroit is
growing worse, the OPA admitted today with
the revelation that smokes are selling in some
war plants for as high as 40 cents package.
James Woods, acting district director for
the OPA, said the OPA has received several
complaints about exorbitant prices charged by
shady operators in munitions plants but so far
has failed to nab single operator.
In an effort to eliminate the black market,
Woods suggested that compliments notify po-
lice Immediately when victimized.
The source of the operators supply remains
mystery, Woods said. But he recalled that only
last Thursday wholesalers and jobbers pledged
themselves to supply legitimate retailers with
60 per cent of last years quota.
Jack Starkstein, General Tobacco and Gro
Gerry Co., $3.50 Fourteenth; A. Haig, Advance
Tobacco and Candy Co., S740 w. Vernon; the
Charles Gauss Co., 2155 Grand River, and the
Highland Park Tobacco and Candy Co., Is Vic
tory, Highland Park, all insisted they selling
only to legitimate dealers.
They said they are limiting sales to old GUS
TONER'S however, to prevent the merchandise
falling into wrong hands

out the night club practice of having hired girls
