caution to watch internationally

night about a fragment of dialogue
or the lighting of a set.
Cary Grant, one of the best
actors IN the business, as well as
most charming personally, took adj
vantage of a historic studio stale
mate to invent a mythical picture
company that first enlisted the en-
thusiastic cooperation of Ingrid
Bergman Gust before she decamped
to italy,, Alfred Hitchcock and
Joe Gotten, and then bloomed pro-
digiously all over Hollywood.
THE OBJECT of this intriguing
time killer was to people an imagi-
nary studio with characters whose
names were most appropriate for
their assignments. From a list sub
mitted to me by Cary and his
acoomplices, l have selected the
following outstanding examples:
Dolly Shot: the heroine
May Cup: her mother
Lee Dingman: the hero
Mike Shadow: the villain
PAN Ova: a ballet dancer
NANNY Takes: the director
Mimi O'Craph: the script girl
Phil Mer: the cameraman
