roil tor nearly six months. I don’t know what Joan's exact salary is, but SI,OOO a week is a fair guess. Twentyfour weeks off the screen means a loss of $21,000 to the star. In addition, Joan and George Barnes are remodeling their

bouse to put in an elaborate nursery. Then there ire doctor and hospital bills, which, ft the case ot a film celeb, soar > enty high. Say the baby weighs seven pounds. Tat much gold is worth about 13430 (according to my figures). But Joan and George's baby will represent an investment ot over JJO.WO. And worth it, too, to them. ti Carte continues to unbend, rw the first time during her contract at M. G.

amusing comes to light with every dialect picture. When an English story is announced, every voice on the other side of the casting window has a British accent. If the picture be a Scotch locale, as R-K-O's "Little Minister", the burrs are so thick you can hardly understand them. They are the same extras applying for both Jobs! Funniest story going the rounds concerns an important picture with a lineup of stellar names. At the outset, the director called the cast together, explained the cast of the production and begged that «ach star come promptly when called, because an hour’s delay might cost the company thousands. Several days later, the setup for a shot was ready, but the director was missing. Someone discovered he was in the studio barber shop. It was a male star, noted for hit caustic wit, who observed: "Oh, I suppose he is getting a SIO,OOO hair-cut.” What blonde star, with a reputation for temperament, has put her- • self definitely on the spot by walking out on a local newspaper Interviewer an hour before they were scheduled to do a broadcast together?
