 Starting Wednesday at the Poli are stars, songs, and laughter ga- lore in Easy to Wed" the new tech nicolor musical hit. The laugh damned story of lady-killer whose amatory exploits land him with two wives furnishes a sparkling vehiclt for the talents of Van Johnson, Els ther Williams, Lucille Ball, and Keenan Wynn in Easy to We'd.
 The easy-to-look at Miss Williams and the increasingly popular Van Johnson, who scored together in Thrill of Romance" again prove themselves an ideal couple, this time not only in their romantic scenes but in their first song-and- dance numbers on the screen. Miss Ball and Wynn, completely at home in the comedy field, were never fun nier than in their present roles as respective dancer and newspaper reporter whose appearance at the altar is constantly interrupted when Wynn gets himself into jams.

STRAND

Bringing to full and thrilling screen life ore of the most fascinat- ing stories ever to top best-seller lists, Daryl F. Zanuck's eagerly awaited presentation of Anna and the King of Siam" starring Irene Dunne. Rex Harrison and Linda Dsrnell, opens tomorrow at the Strand Theater.
 No fiction tale spun out of ina glnation, Margaret Landon's un- usual biography captivated millions oi readers with it's exciting story of the adventures of an English wom- an who came to the exotic Siam o1 l862 to serve as a teacher to the scores of wives and children of King Mongkut. cv1l before publi- cation, however Daryl F. Zanuck, reading the galley proofs. foressw " Its unlimited screen possibilities, and out-bid all competitors in secur- ing the film rights for 10th Century, Fox. .
 Here was all the intrigue of the royal palace, the loves and-ieal- ouSles that rose out of the passions ana furles of the harem, the oreathtaklng spectacle of people who reveled in pagentry, and a Srocklng barbarism that ran parallel Tn strange paradox with an age old culture of wisdom and beauty. And woven in brilliant relief through this exotic background the story of Anna herself, Who brought her western beauty, fiery courage and Keen wit to win triumph no wom- an ever knew before.
 From the beginning, Zanuck along with Producer Louis D. Lighton (of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" fame) cor Human Bondage" and Since You Went Away, as well as we'll as thousands of movie-goers, could picture only Irene Dunne as Anna. Producer was delayed three months so that she could play the role. More glamorous than ever and looking like valentine in her crinolines and 1860 vintage bonnets, Miss Dunne. welcoming a change from the comedy roles she has been playing, brings Anna to the screen in her first historical role in 10 years.
 For the part of the moody, tem- peramental King Mongkut, Rex Harrison, England's most famous screen and stage actor, came to Hollywood for this first American film appearance. But Harrison is no stranger to the American screen he won wide acclaim here with his outstanding portrayals in Night Train" "The Citadel Major Bar bara'' and, more recently, in "A Tank In London" and "Blithe Spirit"
 Lovely Linda Darnell is seen as the voluptous Tuptin, King Mong- kuts favorite wife One of Holly woods most glamorous stars, Linda, who rose to the top by playing bad girls after having started her career in ingenue parts, brings to her cur rent role all of the intense fire and vivacity of the Tuptim who defied the King and customes of that era.
 The supporting cast of Anna and the King of Siam" includes such outstanding players as Lee J. Cobb, Gale Sondergaard, Mikehail Ras- ummy, Dennis Roey, Tito Renaldo and Richard Lyon. The companion featureis Strange Triangle" starring Signe Haase and Preston Foster.

most as much from the public's con- viction that she is a down o-earth, regular" person as it has from her great acting talent.
 I'm impressed by my one meeting with Betty Macdonald, author of the best-seller, The Egg and I.' Knowing that her earnings from the book ($50,000 for movie rights plus royalties on more than mill lion copies sold) must be enormous in the aggregate, I asked her what changes her suddenly acquired for tune would make in her style of living. None at all,' she told me and said it with such surprise that it was impossible to doubt that she meant exactly what she said. What difference between her reaction to wealth and that displayed by most of our Hollywood stars, few o1 whom manage to salvage enough out of their s5000-a-week paychecks tc see them through rainy day!
 Among other movie mysteries that puzzle me Is the fact that even pic lures in which the cast are garbed throughout in the commonest kind of work togs, the name of a fashion designer appears prominently on the credit title. Consider, for instance 'Ramrod," a period western epie now in production. When it is screened, audiences will solemnly be informed that costumes are hv Edith Head. Maybe they are, but certainly Miss Heads assignment Tor film of that kind could hardly De considered strenuous. All she needs to do, if the duds are to he authentic, is to copy the desiens of Sears-Roebuck or Montgomery ward catalogue of the proper year
 Speaking of easy jobs I'm re. mlnded of the fact that Johnny Welssmuller has signed a new con- tract to play "Tarzan" for three more years. It's highly improbable that ne Il ever win an Academy Os- car in the process, but he can con- graduate himself on one of the greatest sincecures any actor ever mas had.

BACK FROM TOUR

Well, here I am safely back in Hollywood and the day I re- turned will long be remembered .... The sun was shiningi If I say so myself, my tour was a great success. The fact that I'm safely back in Hollywood proves that.
 It was a great experience to be able to travel over the country and meet my wonderful fellow Americans. Les sir, the American pubic IS very close to my heart. Right next to the bullet-proof vest.
 l received wonderful recep- tlon in Milwaukee. As soon as my plane was sighted there was great display of fireworks. I didn't mlnd the flares, but the ack-ack got awfully close But as soon as I did one show for them. they were convinced of my talents It seems they like eggs in their beer.
 l, they declared holiday But l wonder why only the banks closed? There's no doubt about it, the American public loved my show. They really ate it up. ...- In fact, guy in Chicago took bite out of me
 Seriously, though, the success of my tour was due to the unselfish efforts of my talented troupe They did a grand job and I'm seriously considering paying them. l also want to thank my studio for being kind enough to loan me five starlettes for the show. Then, again, why shouldn't it have loaned them to me shot five sevens in a TOW!

"oAA1 NVooDs "oAy ~o OP~NN Letter to Eric Johnston, President of the MPAA. Dear MT. Johnston: Ever since those ultra-sexy bill- boards, exploiting Howard Hughes film, Tine Outlaw" began to dec crate American roadsides, there's been much talk elnanating from your office about the need to clean up" movie advertising. Was it just talk, and nothing more? If motif you and your cohorts actually mean business-Wl1en are you going to start translating the conversation into action?
 Let me, call your attention to newspaper ads which are being used at this moment to exploit Night In Paradise a film produced by Wal ter Wanger and released by Univer- sal It urges the public to SEE PAGAN REVEIS IN A PALACE OF PLEASURE A LIFETIME OF LOVING IN ONE EXCITING NIGEIT!"
 By comparison, MT. Johnston, the Outlaw ads that I've seen are mir acles of good taste and refinement.
 I believe that you are entirely sincere in your declarations of pur- pose. I believe that the various gro1ps which are vitally interested in seeing you carry your cleanup campaign into effect also credit you with complete sincerity. But confi- dence is bound to suffer before long unless something is done about such llrid advertising as that cited above.
 Your association is now using its power to punish Howard Hughes for bad taste in advertising. With out condoning his exploitation meth ods in the least, I want to ask a question: Is there one rule for him, and none for the company that con- cocted the Night In Paradise" cam paign?

 Local cOlumnist Lee Shippey re- ports that the English Parliament, in TIT, enacted the following law: All women of whatever age, wfe- ther maids of widows, that shall impose upon and betray into matri- money one of His Majesty's sub jects by scents paints, cosmetic washes, artificial teeth, false hair, iron stays, hoops, high-heeled shoes or bolstered hips, shall incur the penalty of the law against witch craft, and the marriage, upon con- victlon, shall stand null and void" It occurs to me that such a law, here in Hollywood. would certainly play hob with the earnings of the di- vorce lawyers

Two Characters, No Action

on their wedding night the couple
start squabbling about him until
the husband hauls off and belts his
bride in the chops. This doesn't
make her stop loving him, oddly
enough; in fact, she loves him
while she's right in the midst of
little extracurricular romance with
old Moneybags. But the groom
eventually drops by his house one
night and grabs him lethally by the
windpipe.
I thought the play was ending.
albeit a little early, when Rathbone
told the little woman all about it,
but there is the matter of sustain
ing the action, or lack Of 1t, until
around II o'clock. This latter re-
quirement necessitates good deal
of padding so that the general ef-
feet Is an intolerable wait. The
main effect Is summed up neatly by
that song In "Call Me Mister" about
the pain in the back Of my sacrol-
Lac. II you didn't have it before
sitting through this one, you surely
will afterward.
There Is one more producer than
actors to share the blame for this
dreary standstill. Homer Curran
produced In association with Rus
sell Lewis and Howard Young. The
play was adapted by Jane Hinton
from the French original of Louis
Verneuil.

which subsequently saved them from
malnutrition. When o. and j. left
town, they stayed. And walked the
streets. Finally, they landed minor
chore at a small studio, sold tune
to Capital, and landed a six-month
contract at Paramount.
Two months before that option
was to expire. they wrote ITO Each
His Own" And nothing happened.
They were literally packing their
brief cases to move out when sud-
denly the song began catching on.
Since then they've written Golden
Earrings" "A Coach and Eight

for the Hope picture, Monsieur
Beaucaire"; Beside You," wen
Drink Every Drop in the Shop and
Warm as Wine," all also for the
Hope picture, and a provoking thing
called "On the Other End of Kiss. =

Movie prop men had to clean

of old silent film days which were
necessary for use in Merton Of the

For example, a dozen silent movie
cameras were needed for one scene
in which Red SHELTON and Virginia
o'Brien cavort in a 1915 vintage
Hollywood set. John Arnold, cam
era department head at M-G-M,
finally located them, dust-covered
and forgotten in a storehouse.
Several oldies, including Peggy

edification of the cast, wardrobe,

In each instance the film had
to be screened twice. Observers, it

the antique productions they forgot

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK.
The names OF Basil Rathbone
and Eugene Leontovich carry a high
degree Of sparkle and whatever ap-
plause can be given a talky two
character omelet called "Obsession, !"
which opened Tuesday at the Plym-
outh Theater, must come from ad-
mirers OF this normally talented
twosorne. I'm afraid only Rathbone
and Leontovich zealots will be able
to find any worth in this play which
sounds like an afternoon suds opera.
There may be some attraction In
the fact that all the conversation is
carried on by the two stars, although
a two-character drama is by no
means unheardl Of. In fact "Obses-
sion" was produced on Broadway
once before, In 1928, with Fay
BANTER and John Halliday starred,
its title then being Jealousy"
There even have been 4 few one
character plays, notably, although
not for its high theatrical stature,
"Courtesan," by Elsa Schelley.
The largest hurdle for q drama Of
this sort Is its complete lack of
visual action. AL the movement is
implied, through telephone calls or
lengthy descriptions Of offstage
events. Even the last climax, or
as 1t turns out in this overly
stretched affair, the last anticlimax,
is a sorely put-upon situation in
which the police who arrive to cart
Rathbone off to the Jail and ulti-
mately the guillotine are a silent
band Of patient nonexistent offstage
ghosts. They utter not a word as
they take the prisoner away, a most
uncommon forbearance among DO
licemen and particularly French
detectives.
There is lavish and handsome
cutaway apartment set by Stewart
CLANCY, who dreamed up a similar
fiat for "The Voice of the Turtle. /"
There are some lovely gowns from
Adrian's niftieSt needle and Regi-
nald Denham supplies the staging,
putting his two social lions through
Partisan capers in a sorry caricature
of slick continental manners.
The story Of "Obsession" con-
Germs a young lady of Russian orr
gin who marries a Partisan who
seems beset with all sorts Of sus-
picions-particularly about a mil
lionaire who remains unexplained
to the groom's satisfaction. Right
