Behind movie headlines: There's
formula for Hollywood which says
a neglected actor must go East to
win success in the West-and today
it's clicking on all four.
AS the Broadway show season hits
top speed, a plentiful number of
Movietown's so-called down and
cutters appear to be finding the road
back to prominence on the screen.
At least, most major studios are to-
day bidding for the services of a
group they once had on their door
steps and who are now going great
guns in New York shows.
Topping the field, of course, is
Frank Fay, whose smashing sue
cess in Harvey" recalls the fact
that 10 years ago, as the ex-husband
Of Barbara Stanwyck, he couldn't
get even the most minor sort of a
film role. Today they're all trying
to coax him back, and at staggering
salary offers. Fay was as funny a
decade ago as he is today in "Har-
vey," but 1t took the Broadway
showcase to turn his tide.
Current, too, is the case of Ruth
Hussey, co-starring with Ralph Bel
lamy in State of the Union" Miss
Hussey was under contract to MGM
for six years, but got little chance to
show her worth as an actress until
the Big Street called. Now they're

and still stay out Of jail. You can
be paid for 1t, as well, If you're good
enough at 1t. Joseph Macmillan
johnson, mild-n1annered planner Of
all sorts Of violence, works for David
o. Selznick at a pleasant salary. AL
the blood and thunder in Duel in
the Sum-" even couple of murders,
are the work of johnson. So clever
is his planning, that the Hollywood
censors rejected one plan he had
for showing a train wreck; 1t was
simply too good, being simple and
workable, and might too easily be
copied by some irresponsible.
johnson, who did the dirty work
in Gone With the Wind" "Rebec-
ca" "Intermezzo, "I'll Be Seeing
You," and "Spellbound," got his
basic training as an architect at the
University OF Southern California.

rediscovered her.
Universal would like to forget
about the experience two years ago
with Maureen Cannon. They
brought her out from New York,
gave her a contract and then de-
cided she wasn't their type. So to-
day Maureen is back where she
started-but a bigger personality
than ever. up in Central Park" Is

Reversing the Horace Greeley
line, the formula still is go East,

Hollywood's mo good" list. It's a
case of the screen being so surfeited
with talent that it's humanity i'm
possible for all the deserving ones
to be ferrted from the grist. And
film producers have never got over
their awe of Broadway hit. It's
an unbeatable showcase, as this sea-
sop's crop Of "go-easters" bear
ample proof.

The War Department today gave
advance warning to the families of
American troops, sailing from New
York on April 18 to join husbands
and fathers in Europe, that they will
be leaving behind them most of the
comforts of home" and practically
all luxuries.
While they can depend upon their
health and safety being carefully
guarded" officials said, most of
them must prepare to face living
under "unattractive conditions" from
the viewpoint of comforts and con-
VenienceS.
Coupled with this unrosy outlook,
the LAS dependents, including 60
from this area, were told not to look
for luxury liner" accommodations
on their trips. Three Army trans
ports now engaged in bringing war
wives to the United States, will be
placed in the reverse role of servic-
ing what has become known as
"Operation Reunion" in Europe.

First priority in sailing has been
given 538 dependents who will leave
for Bremerhaven, Germany, the port
of debarkation for most of the fam
lilies. Among them are Mrs. Mark
w. Clark, wife of Gen. Clark, who is
Joining her husband at his Austrian
headquarters, and Mrs. Lucius D.
Clay, whose husband is deputy COM
manding general of the American
zone in Europe. Mrs. Joseph T.
McNarney, wife of the European
theater commander, is not going to
Join her husband until later.
The transport Henry Gibbins
with 454 women and children, will
leave next on April % and the
George w. GoethalS, carrying the
same number, is scheduled to sail
April 26 for Bremerhaven.
After unloading their American
passengers, the transports will go
to other ports to pick up English
or French war wives for the return
voyage
Special trains will be provided at
Bremen for the American depend
ents bound for various Army in
stallations in Germany, with sleep
ing cars for all overnight trips. An
Army nurse and a hostess will be
assigned to each train to help moth
ers care for children. Facilities for
warming milk bottles will be avail
able, the Army said, but no mention
was made of dining cars. The few
