Peace will come over another
small corner of the world on Satur-
day. The corner is the one occupied
by Bernard Lust Of the Hippodrome
Theater and those moviegoers who
were incensed that the picture "The
Tawny Pipit" did not remain at that
house longer.
Peace will come with the return
Of THE Tawny Pipit" to the Hippo
drome this week.
According to Lust, the Hippo
drome's phone has done nothing
but ring since the picture disap-
peared a fortnight ago. Each call
brought the same expression Of
dudgeon that the picture was rot
held longer. Eventually they
reached a number that dictated the
rebooking Of the English comedy.
The Hippodrome's red-faced
manager thinks the public should
share a small bit of the blame for
the relatively short first 1un of
THE Tawny Pipit." 1t stayed away
in great numbers during the first two
days of the screenplay's run, during
which time the management simply
booked in a successor and could do
nothing about the subsequent mo-
mentum of THE Tawny Pipit."
1t will stay this time as long as
there are customers who want to
see. it-providing they don't again
pull the trick of thinking 1t will
be there forever.
1t is a strange business, this one
of operating motion picture

It'll Be Stewart
In Harvey" "
Not Bing
By SheiIoh Grohom

Rex Harrison has refused to star
In "The Gay Pursuit" because he
says IT'S a woman's picture. He was
supposed to have made it with Gene
Tierney, who refused to star with
Rex in "Unfaithfully Yours be-
cause it was a mans picture!
Jimmy Stewart is the not-too-
dark horse coming up the stretch
to beat Bing Crosby for the top
role in Harvey" Il had lunch with
Mr.. (John Beck" Jimmy explains,
and he told me that he starts
preparations on the Harvey" pro-
duction in a month" What Jimmy
doesn't add is that Crosby suddenly
decided to withdraw from the pic
ture. And with Bing out, Stewart
is very much in.
Howard Hughes won't be active
at RKO for another month. Then
he will move his entire personnel
including Jane Russell and Jack
Beutel-from his present Offices to
the RKO lot.
Ray Milland is out Of the run
ming for THE Heiress," with Olivia
de Havilland, because the powers
that-be do not think he has enough
sex appeal for the part!
Sonia Henie tells me that her
4-year -old nephew approached her
at lunch yesterday and demanded,
"Is it true that you're loaded with
money!" It's true, sonny!
Charlie Chaplin is moaning that
the lack OF American interest in
Monsieur Verdoux" will cost him
s1,000,00O! I don't know how he
figures this because the picture
cost him only $500,000. Now, how
ever, it is more than likely that he
will revert to his original plan OF
making his next movie in England.

idea that you were taking a two

How much you sounded like a dedi-
Gated man when you said:
See you in a couple Of years after

We met again, after that, for a
couple Of minutes between acts
when Olivier and the Old Vic Play
ers were doing Uncle Vanya" one
night in the spring of 1947. Wasn't
that a crowded lobby, and how could
any one seeing the Old Vic-even
doing Chekhov-talk about any
thing else?
I had this question. the one
am coming to, in mind that night
but even my sense Of the appropri-
ate kept me from asking it.
The morning mail suggests that
my waiting is at an end.
In it, I found a note from Lynn
Farnol with an inclosure OF several
pages torn from Golfers containing
the first installment Of THE Secret
Papers of Harry Hopkins" Appar-
entity Lynn did not trust me to find
1t on. the newsstand for myself.
Funny thing Is that he was right.
I guess have been waiting for the
book for so long that stopped look

It was not that I doubted your
ability to do a brilliant job, but
frankly. 1t seemed quixotic and a
little foolish Of you to undertake it.
After all. you have been creating
out of your own materials for a
lot Of years. You had escaped the
grubbing and the drudgery. the
f1eld-hand phase Of being writing

as the ivory tower sort, but we all
admired what we thought was a
kind Of Olympian calm you had
achieved living in world of your
own ideas, the ones out Of which
you made plays.
However. you went back on a

SALMON FISHING SET TO CONTINUE
 THIS WEEk-MAyBE
HamIfn and Morrison Catch 57-Pounder Yesterday
 But No Plymouth

Quite a number of persons in Ju- neau are mildly irked today because the second day Of the Salmon Derby was called off for Sunday, but Stan lev Hamlin and Lee Morrison had probably the toughest break of all. The men were set on fishing, and despite the derby cancellation they took the boat out Sunday morning just to stretch the lines and try the tuck
 By o'clock in the morning they were satisfied the fish were biting as three salmon were aboard which ln- cluded one weighing 25 pounds. Fish ing close to the shore in Tee Harbor, Hamlin then hooked what he thought to be the bottom but what proved 45 minutes later to be salmon weighing 57 pounds. Having only 300 feet of line on the reel, Morrison said that both men played the fish which took them nearly to Shelter Island before giving up the fight. Morrison said that the water was comparatively calm and except ing a few mild showers, the day was perfect for fish.
 Milo Clouse, chairman of the Der by said the Derby was cancelled Sunday following word from the U. S. weather bureau that conditions were expected very unfavorable with squalls and wind predicted for the second day of fishing. Winds rang ing up to 20 miles velocity had been forecast for the Aux Bay area, with 25 m. m.p.h blows being in store Tor the outside channel areas.
 Despite the fact that fishing be- came rather rough for the smaller boats Saturday afternoon, Bop Henry, Washington State College freshman from Seattle, came through with the largest fish of the day when he landed 37 pound and l3 ounce king Bud Phelps of Juneau brought the second largest back to the Judges stand and weighed it in at nearly 3l pounds. Dr. John E. Geyer of Juneau latched on to the third prize for Saturdays fishing with 25 pound 10 ounce king.
 Applying the theory that any fish would bring prize, one con- fident fisherman brought his one pound salmon to the weighing stands to compete with the 45 other fish caught during the day.
 Clouse said that approximately L. COG persons have registered and that the final day of fishing will be held next Sunday if weather conditions permit.

HEAVY DAMAGE DONE BY GOLD
 CREEK WATERS
Protecting Walls Torn 0uf- Home Is Threatened
 Saturday Night

Gold Creek went on a rampage late Saturday creating considerable havoc along the lower portion of the stream. City Street Foreman Bert Lybeck reported today that ap- .proximately l20 feet of concrete wall was torn out by the raging torrent which swept down from the moun- tains from a three hour period.
 Portions of the wall were torn out st Ninth Street and along the Ball Park by the swollen waters.
 The home of Herb Lenz, on Will loughby Avenue, was also threatened by the high muddy waters. Approxi- mately eight feet of dirt was washed away by the stream from under his home and another four feet was taken from the opposite side of the creek.
 A horizontal twelve by twelve beam, extending from the main part of the house, prevented small part of the house from dropping in- to the creek. The main part of the house was held up by single piling after the earth had been swept away from underneath.
