When the comedian finally raised : a third time and got the bill, the pro- 1 ducer gave him an anguished look. I “Partner.” he pleaded, "didn't you hear me keeping quiet twice?” Other Hollywood camera nuts will be green with envy of Katharine Hepburn. The R-K-O actress, using her 16-millimeter equipment, is photographing "The Little Minister" foot for foot with the studio camera crew When Kate isn't in the scene, she : shoots the action herself. Her pal. Laura Harding, steps in when lai Hepburn is emoting and an assistant director subs w hen both are before the camera. Not content with photographing what goes on. Kate has her daily rushes printed along with the studio footage and is cutting the scenes as she goes along. She and Laura Harding have a cutting machine at their home and do the work themselves. When all is done, the Hepburn lass will have a completed print of "The Little Minister" to start her film library. Ami. unless the hobby loses Interest, she'll do the same tor all her picture*.

The Geoige Hill home at Arrowhead. where the director plotted the tragic silicide that he finally accomplished in Santa Monica, has been purchased by Charlie Chaplin and will be used by the comedian as a summer hideout. > Charlie, Incidentally, again has delayed the start of his picture. The reason tins time is a change in some of the sets. The comedian will depart from custom in his new film and photograph some of the scenes on location.
