lives.
Everybody agreed it was the
most exciting literary event in
Oxford. in fact in the whole South.
in years."
Oxford is an old, tightly con-
tanned Southern town which
might have been suspicious OF
Hollywood intruders come to make
picture with the flavor of race
in it. Somehow or other, Director
Clarance Brown, a Southerner
himself, expected no such thing
and was deeply gratif1ed to find
his assumption correct.
After all, Faulkner, a home town
boy. wrote the story and this pro-
vided Metros location forces with
an entire.
Outside of writing the original
novel, Faulkner had almost moth
ing to do with making the picture.
He watched it being made, of
course, and went to the parties
where the visitors and the natives
found each other socially exciting.
He lent his Tennessee walking
horse to Director Brown to play
the equine role Of Highboy and
the Metro people were impressed
that he himself stayed up to take
the horse home after nighttime
shooting.
Director Brown and his writer's
on the story made one change in
the Faulkner narrative, a sort Of
basic change in a major melo-
dramatic point. Faulkner did not
mind at all. agreed even that it
strengthened the script.
The picture, made in the early
spring months, had its world pre-
miere in oxford in August. Kies-
ling thinks there never has been
aworld premiere like it.
"The theater has only 500
Seats" he says. land 527 of them
were occupied by Oxford citizens,
white and colored, who worked
in the production as actors. Il
guess there never has been such
a happy bedlam. Afterwards there
was dancing in the village square,
and splendid parties in the great
houses.
These marked the end of the
several months of contact and
while neither Of us felt that our
mutual adventure had made his
tory, each of us learned a little,
and maybe even understood a
little more, when it came time to
say goodby."
Kiesling. a great disciple Of
travel, feels that Hollywood will
move around more hereafter and
that it and the towns it visits
like Oxford-will be broadened at
least little.

luncheon. 1t no doubt will get
back to that picture in plenty of
time, hence his willingness to dis
cuss Intruder in the Dust" fash
ioned from William Faulkner's
novel.
Kiesling was in on the making
OF the latter, too, and he found it
a fine intellectual adventure since
it was made right in Faulkner's
home town of Oxford, Miss. He
thinks Mississippi and Hollywood
learned lot from being intimates
all those weeks, a couple of dis
similars who met in a mood of
lively curiosity but without hos
tility.
GAS a matter of fact" says Kies-
ling, 1--WE found everything we
wanted in Oxford, the dramatic
realism not only of the actual
scene but of SGT Oxford human
types whom we used in the pic
ture. LOCATION shooting is not
new. of course. but think we got
something different using it to
this degree. Not only will we do
1t again, but so will the other

real when you turn a camera di-
rectly on 1t, a new reel realneSs.

Working in his home town,
among the people he has written
about after growing up with them,
Faulkner was right there when
the picture was being made u
mostly as spectator.

It was Gen De Gaulle, as head

treason.
Doctors recently reported that
Marshal Petain is showing a

Hello Again

 MIRA Headquarters Los Angeles, California

day. You cans imagine how over whelming birthday can be until you've had one with this MIRA family.
 Mine began in the hills over looking Hollywood at the home of Mir. and Mrs. George L. Eastman. He is the president of a building materials company, and past president of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. Their gift to me was an exquisite handker- chief which they'd brought back from Switzerland last year. They went to Switzerland to attend the World Assembly for Moral Re- Armament which was held at Caux. AS you know, the Nugget carried news of that Assembly and of delegates who attended-repre- sentatives of government, indus try, labor, press, education, the theater-from fifty nations. One of my birthday greetings came from Caux Switzerland where the cast of the musical re- l vue, "The Good Road," has gath cred in preparation for the film ing of the revue. Many of the cast were with us in Los Angeles year ago. Now they are preparing 10 make full-length motion picture of "The Good Road" A number ! of Hollywood technicians have gone to Switzerland to give their services. They are experts in their fields and obtained leave of ab- sence from their studios in order 10 go. l hope next winter you will see the film in Nome.
 The surprise of the day was tea given for me by the chorus twith whom I sing>, the "Mackinac Singers" There were spec a songs and poems, climaxed by crown of flowers. When I think back to my birthdays in Nome and remember the honeycombed drifts as the first heraldS of spring, it seems incredible to have had sweet peas and daisies placed upon my head.
 One of the delights of the day was tbe large representation of Nome at dinnertime. There were five of us. including Dave and ] Kay Walsh Farley, and Norma and Bob Scott. II was great to see them again after several months, and as you can guess, we talked much of our years in Nome. The family here was intrigued by the tale of Nome's one cow-and Kay to prove it! Both the Farleys and the , Scotts had seen "The Good Road" here last year. Also at the party was secretary from the Holly wood Bowl with whom we worked when the revue was presented l there a year ago.
 The birthday cake turned out to be Baked Alaska-the first I'd ever eaten. It was constructed by three of the fellows-a Scotsman, Ca nadian, and an American from New Jersey. And I do mean con- structed. You know how they're made-cake with ice cream on top covered with meringue and then Drowned in the oven for a few breathless minutes. One of the fel- lows thought their product better
