 He has the craziest sounding, yet the sanest philosophy of anybody in Hollywood today It's his theory that it doesn't take lot of money to make a good picture, buy rather the opposite, because he fells that as big money is spent on a picture, it is taken out of the directors hands and put into the public's. They cast it and dictate what should go into it. He'd rather make a picture for less money, the way he wants to do it, than make it for more money, the way the business office wants.
 Hecht doesn't believe in long shooting schedules. We can shoot 8 picture in htree weeks where it

eration is buzzing around town in lately. A hot-rod that's a cement mixer with squarrel tails.
 The benzedrine buggieS seem to be the rage throughout the coun- try and all the teen-agers enjoy nothing more than diSmantling perfectly innocent automobile and painting it with jazzy slogans such as, 'This end up" :. ''Backseat drivers not allowed . we have no back seat" and Beware of soft shoulder" I re- ceived all this detailed informa- tion from my brother he's been riding the rods for years.
 The "souped-up" jobs are held together with bottle tops and if you use the clutch you're a sissy. It really has the motorcycle po- lice in dither e.. they don't know whether to give the kids tickets for speeding or fine them for transporting scrap-iron with out a permit.
 Things certainly have changed. Now when the old man buys his son shiny new automobile the kid is likely to say, But Pop. it's got fenders!" So, if you let junior borrow the car for the evening, make sure you hide the tool kit he's likely to bring the car home stripped in more ways than one

would take any other studio three months. We've got it planned be- fore it starts and the only thing VIC have to do when shooting is to aEs range the lights and figure out the camera angles.
 Instead of getting a salary foe "Specter," he's sharing in the pros fits. Herbert J. Yates, president cn Republic Studios, agreed to make the picture because Hecht was the first person who had ever tried to sell him an idea without predicting it would make million.

The Danbury Fair, Conn, follow ing eight days running from Sep tember 29th to October 9th, inclusive, hit a new high in attendance record, both in the overall count and actual paid.
 The attendance for the eight days reached a total of l63,456 that ln- cludes the press, exhibitors etc. This figure tops the former record set in 1941 by some 22,00O. Actual paid at- tendance also chalked up new re- cord over the 1941 paid admissions with 128,325 for 1946.
 In checking the parking area, it was found that visitors from nine states travelled to the Fair.

 AS Sheila O'Monahan, Miss O'Brien plays her first Irish role. Although she has appeared as an English child, French youngster and an American small fry of 1903, she was never before called upon to deliver her lines in an Irish brogue.
 Heading the cast of the prologue is Cyd Charisse, lovely star of the Ballet Russe, who made her screen debut in "ziegfeld F'ollies of 1946' and scored in her first straight dramatic role in "The Harvey Girls" Others in the cast include
The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-10-08

of the screens most popular stars, I'll agree that she rates lush con- tract-but I'm wondering if she wouldn't have been smarter in the long run to insist, not on participa- tion in the profits, but on a clause protecting her from such cheap ex- ploitation as she received in connec- tion with the picture. "Gilda."
 Trade papers report that 2Oth Century-Fox has purchased screen rights to a new novel, Nightmare Alley" which book reviewers assert is even more malodorous in it's ex- ploitation of sex than the much censored best-seller, Memoirs of Hecate County" Since neither the Johnston Office nor the various state and municipal censors could permit the exhibition of a picture faithfully adhering to the plot of Nightmare Alley" it follows that studio bosses plan a complete re- writing job such as they undertook in cleaning up Forever Amber" In short, they plan to capitalize on the sensational publicity the novel is sure to get, while retaining only the title. To some minds that may be good showmanship"-but I can think of number of other descrip- tions that fit it better. I hope Nightmare Alley" leaves a big bou- levard of red ink on the studios fi- nancial records.
 In Hollywood there are two fa- nous male stars, whose activities during the war are in sharp con- trast. One of the two is Bob Hope While the fighting was on, he made overseas tours of every battle front, visited almost every training camp

ip the United States, and, in all, en- tertained an estimated total of more than 10,000,000 service men. The other star is Charles Chaplin. Dur ing the war his only personal ap- pearances were series of speeches criticizing the direction of the fight by the governments of the United States and Great Britain. It's nice, now that the shooting's over, to see Hope honored by the American Le- zion with its highest decoration. It will also be nice, in my own personal opinion, to see Chaplin properly rewarded" for his inactivities, when his current film is released.
 
 A local cOlumnist's report that Marie Mcdonald, who used to be billed as "The Body" will get a brand new publicity build-up from MGM as ''The Mind," is being yer flied by the studios current press releases which pass up no oppor- tunity to acclaim her fondness for heavy reading. I certainly have no desire to cast doubt upon Miss Mo- Donald intellectual attainments, but I can't resist at least one quip. Con- sidering her special qualifications for her former tag, press agents can congratulate themselves. if they sell the public the switch, on accom- plishing a real triumph of mind over matter"
 Speaking of books, I'm told that Audie Murphy, the war hero who's now embarked on a Hollywood act ing career, makes a practice of gift ing his dates with tonnes instead of bouquets. Perhaps he's already dis covered that Filmville glamour girls like books, can't be safely judged by their covers"

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 8-I attended luncheon the other noon, at which several of the movie industry's lead CTS made brief speeches. One of the most eloquent confined his remarks to the subject of Hollywood's influ- ence on the post war world. Through the powerful medium which we control" said he, i've must, in the interests of interna- tional peace, show the other nations of the world the American way of life"
 As he spoke, the bitterest jurisdic- tional strike in Hollywood history was raging in Filmville. Nearly five hundred pickets, in open defiance of law and order, had battled that same morning with sheriff's deputies and police. Nineteen men had been seriously injured. Cars had been wrecked. Long standing personal friendships had been turned into violent hatredS.
 Hollywood, the most spotlighted community on earth, talks to the rest of the world not only through the pictures it makes but through another medium-the medium of it's own conduct. I shudder when I think of the message it is commun- icating at the present time. Can 1t expect its pictures to offset the inn pression of "the American Way of Life" that other peoples are sure to get as they read, in the factual news of the day, about film workers turning Hollywood streets into a bloody mess in the course of fight, not for better pay or better working conditions, but for union power?
 Time enough for Hollywood to dream about world missions-after it has achieved unity in its own house.
