He Makes Miniatures.
One of Hutton's hobbies is making
miniature furniture, to exact scale.
Hutton was born Bob Whine, in

others.

read the script and is crazy about it.

HOLLYWOOD.
A new musical trick, calculated
to give the same emotional impact
to scenes which the piano player
at the local movie house used to
give back in films early days, is
being used in The Crimson Ca
nary" The underscore, as they
call it, will be all in jazz for this
mystery thriller.
Noah Berry, jr., musician in
the story, woos his lady with
trumpet, and whenever the love mo-
tiff enters, the underscore carries
the trumpet notes. Fear is empha-
sized with a tenor sax growl. De-
spondency is underlined with a low
alto sax wall. When the lovers
quarrel, the whole band bursts into

Bob Hutton's success story is that
Of a film fan who has entered the
magic circle on his own divinities
and can't yet believe his good luck.
Since childhood Bob has viewed
film folk as gods, and treasured
every personal contact with them.
"Other boys at Blair Academy, in
New Jersey. dreamed of football
fame, of travel, of the Army or Navy,
or of business careers. I dreamed
of motion pictures" Bob says.
"All the time I was in class, ]
dreamed of acting in films. Sounds
sappy, doesn't it?" he added. grim
ming. Naturally, I didn't do too
well in my studies"
You might think from this that
Hutton is vapid, self-centered. Not
at all. He's genuine. friendly, has
no false modesty, talks about his
success as very pleasant joke. He
has a gentle personality and his
earnestness and ambition are I'M
mistakable.
Visiting him in his dressing room
is good way to meet every one else
on the set, for they all seem to drop
in to sit and talk, and enjoy soft
drinks, which he always has handy.
He Has Real shyness.
On the screen he has a resem-
blance to Jimmy Stewart, but physi-
cally, there's little likeness; in man
ner, there's none. What the two
have in common is certain charm
ing shyness.
Hutton has light reddish blond
hair, very blue eyes, fair skin and
regular features. He's 6 feet 2 and
his movements show a well con-
trolled body. His nervous energy is
clearly perceptible in his quick
movements and rapid speech. He
works hard to put his point across
He's sensitive; worries about his
work great deal, suffers from the
typical actors complaint, stomach
trouble, which keeps him out of the
services. He had hoped to be a
flyer.
When he played in stock he had
prayer he used to repeat before
he went on stage, 'Oh, God, don't
let me forget my lines, cut a cue or

NEW YORK.
Among the regulars at all of
Broadway's first nights are two dig
nifed. expenSively- dressed couples
who are quite unique in that they
actually pay for their tickets and
are there only because they love the
theater.
These four are present even more
regularly than some $50 of us who
attend out of professional necessity
They attend out of sheer, untram-
meled love of the theater.
This fashionable foursome are the
Jules Brulatours and the Ira Kat
zenbergs. Mr.. Brulatour is a fab
ulously wealthy importer; Mrs. Bru-
latour is the former Hope Hampton
erstwhile screen actress and opera
singer. Mr.. Katzenberg is retired
flnancier.
Both the Katzenbergs and the
Brulatours reserve their first night
tickets far in advance. AS soon as
q new play is announced, then
standing order is handled by boz
Office treasurers, who make sure that
their tickets are put aside.
Both couples have front-row seats
for every performance. The Kat
zenbergs have aisle seats as a rule
The Brulatours like theirs smack IN
the center of row AA.
They Never Walk Out.
Unlike fellow first nighters, with
whom they have cordial, and II
some cases even very friendly rela-
tions, they never walk out on q
show, however sad it happens to be
They sit quietly, do not talk during
the performance and always arrive
on time. Neither couple takes part
in the extrovert curbstone antics Of

society who will do anything from
