the goal of eag- • r producers when he was out here with “The Barretts of Wimp o 1 e Street." the young Irishman temporarily gave Hollywood the slip. His return here day before yest e r d a y . however, found him , talked into submission. He has signed that Paramount contract and
starts to work opposite Marlene Dietrich in “The Song of Songs” a . week from today. Fredric March, 1 thus released, will be asked to play one of the leading roles in “The Story of Temple Drake." Shy of publicity and rather fearful of Hollywood, the tall Ahearne is the object of much interest among the film folk. When he came into the Paramount lunchroom with Marlene Dietrich and Director Rouben Mammoulian, dozens of stares were leveled at him. Besides Miss Dietrich, he’ll work in his first picture with the veteran Alison Skipworth and with Hardie Albright. Os course you’ll not need remindI ing that Ahearne played Robert Browning to Katharine Cornell’s Elizabeth Barrett in the stage version of the love story of these two I —poets. ' His younger brother, Patrick Ahearne. made a recent trip to Hollywood to test out for Connie Bennett’s lead, but didn’t fit the | role. Small David, son of Director Howard Hawks, has never been allowed to see anything but cartoon comedies. The other day he made his first visit to a motion picture set. Howard introduced him to Joan Crawford. "Who is she. daddy?” he asked. “Miss Crawford is an actress,” I explained Howard. The youngster looked at Joan i dubiously. “You mean like Mickey Mouse?" ' he asked.

— < And did you hear what they’re calling Walt Disney these days? “The old mice-tro.” HOLLYWOOD PARADE. Hollywood’s jungle epics disturb George Arliss very much. The English actor is a great lover of animals. During the filming of ‘rhe King’s Vacation,” they had to put up a long argument, to get him to okay a shot of two dogs hitched to a milk cart. In the script of his new picture, “The Adopted Father,” he came upon a fishing scene. The returned script bore these words in Arliss’ handwriting: “It is understood that no fish will be used in this shot, and no animals, whatsoever, in the picture." After reading my story that R-K-0 plans a picture called “Radio City,” William Rowland wired me from New York that he and Monte Brice already have made arrangements to feature Morton Downey in a film of the same name. What looked like a swell argument fizzled out when I called R-K-0 and they said the title was unimportant to them—in fact they were afraid people might think they were exploiting their own project. All that talk of loaning Warner Baxter came to naught. He is headed for Havana and a vacation. . . You hear around that Joan Bennett will be leaving the Fox company when her contract is up in March... . Someone saw Polly Ann Young dancing with John Wayne at the Beverly Wilshire and started a rumor that he and Josephine Saenz were calling it off. If they’d only used their eyes.

The company already hud i borrowed $15,000,000 from the It. i F. C. and had asked tor more. “Representatives of the Federal corporation were in Detroit going over the assets and were prepared i to loan an additional $23,000,000. This loan, however, would have still left the Guardian company about $2,000,W0 short of paying all depositors." HOOTER SPEAKS IN NEW YORK CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Some party leaders thought Mr. Hoover might have a sensational j answer to reports of a movement ito unseat his supporters iu the party organization, and replace them with old guard party leader.; who were sympathetic with Me. Hoover.

NEW OWNERS TO ANNOUNCE PLAN AT MEET FRIDAY CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE ing of agreements to raise beets will begin Friday at the Hireling here. Mr. Calland will be in charge. It is the desire of the operators of the mill to secure the acreage in I a territory w ithin 30 to 35 miles of Decatur so that the beets can be I trucked here, reserving small territories in several counties beyond' the 35-mile radius. Closed Since 1930 The sugar factory has been closed since 1930 and efforts to open it last year failed. The mill has a capacity of slicing 1.200 tons of beets a year and when running it is one of the busiest places'in the state. It operates 21 hours a day and seven days a week, employing between 250 and 300 men in the mill and yards. During past campaigns more than 100,000 tons of beets have manufactured into sugar and production of sugar has run as high as 21,000,000 pounds. Plan For Meeting A meeting of a number of local business men was held last evening. pre iminary to organizing the community to assure success of Friday's gathering. Ferd CGriste, former county agent here and for the past several years with the publicity department of Allied Mills, attended and advised with the Deca- . tur men. who will have charge of the job of getting a crowd here, arranging for he building and as sisting in details for the event.
