W in Hollywood - ■ y

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright King Feature* Syndic*M. Inc HOLLYWOOD, Calif., — Only 30 intimate friends will be allowed to see Joan Crawford’s footlight appearance in her own backyard theater. The size of the .audience will be limited not only by the star’s desire for the affair to be strictly invita-

ft Joan Crawford

tional but by the capacity of the tiny show-shop, which will accommodate less than three dozen spectators. Blue • prints for the theater already have been okayed by Joan and construction will start any day now. The star will be aided in her hobby by Franchot Tone, whom many expect her

to marry, and who was an enthusiastic member of the Group theater in New York. One of the hopes of the pair is to persuade Leo Strassburg, of this organization, to come to Hollywood and direct a series of plays. For the time being, Joan and Franchot are on the lookout for oneact dramas, particularly from the classics. They’ll recruit the casts from their friends and bids to the performances will be more difficult to get than tickets for the biggest premieres. Along with acting, both the stars want to try their hands at stage direction. They're as keen as a pair of children over their new toy. 1 happened onto a little comedy of the Boulevard the other night. A well known actor drove into a service station for gas. He had got caught with only a quarter in his pocket and was quite embarrassed to have to ask for a single gallon. Maybe that is what confused him. At any rate, he hurriedly passed over the coin to the attendant and shot the car into second and zoomed away from the pump There was a most awful clatter. The hose had not been removed from his tank It caught, pulled away from the container and gallons of gasoline commenced to pour upon the station driveway It was a hysterical moment for everybody but the actor and the attendant They started to argue, clinched and were still at it when a pair of radio officers showed up.

REGULAR MEETING OF EASTERN STARS The regular stated meeting of the Eastern tars was held in the Masonic Hall, Thursday night. A social meeting of the organization is being planned for April 12. MEETING OF LADIES AID Thirty four members of the j Ladies Aid Society of the Evangelical Church attended the meeting [ held in the church parlors, Thurs- , day afternoon.

Several members offered sentence prayers. The offering amounted to fourteen dollars and

After hearing both sides the officers grinned and refused to inter- . sere. The denouement of the little . comedy now will be argued out in . some stuffy civil court. The most unexpected people are , nervous over fire-arms. Arthur . Byron, who is the perennial selection for prison wardens, never tired a pistol until he had to do it for a picture. He emptied a revolver twice before he could pull the scene off with the proper conviction. Edward G. Robinson, the unforgotten “Little Caesar.” is another. He says he had been playing the gangster in “The Racket” for 20 weeks before he realized he was flinching every time he pulled the trigger. Seek the lesser figures in the Hollywood parade for your really picturesque stories. There is Leon Beaumon, now playing a bodyguard to Claudette Colbert in “Cleopatra.” Beaumon is the son of John C. Beaumon, a power in the U S. Steel Corporation. His brother is the Right Reverend Theodore Beaumon. bishop of the Diocese of Sinyan- ■ chow, China He himself is a grad- ■ uate of Cai Tech and the inventor ' of a tube lighting patent for mow • ing vehicles, which pays him $lO.- ! 000 a year. : Yet Beaumon is determined on a screen career—has been around pic--1 tures for five or six years now He says: > “I used to carry spears with i Clark Gable when he was an extra, i What Clark did, I can do. I don’t . think I could ever be an important ; figure in the engineering world, but I know I can become a great actor.” i So he plugs ahead, working for ■ $lO and sls a day when he can. and i waits for the big break.
