In proof of this, drivers are ’ asked to take note of some of their i fellow motorists on curves, near the top of hills, or those who cut in and ; out of traffic, —the drivers who rush ■ the light or fall to slow up or stop at stop signs. * Such acts distinguish the indifferi ent or dangerous driver from the i good driver. Not all the million drivers who were Involved in acci- ■ dents which killed more than 36.009 • and injured around a million last 1 year were of the so-called smarty type. Many ot those who drove i through the red light, on the wrong I side of the road, passed on curves, or operated recklessly were persons i otherwise level-headed and considI erate. _

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1936

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright, 1936, King h'raturci Syndicate, Inc. HOLLY WOOD — These Changing Scene*- The most Important Chinaman on “The Good Earth” sot is Major General Theodore Tu, a medium tall, chunky

army oftk-er on loan to tell Metro. Goldwyn* i Mayer where to trend carefully in filming the Pearl Buck classic. Una bright morning, ve stand with General Tu, overlooking one of the most amazing movie locations in Holly-

I’varl Buck

wood history. It is the farm village of Wang Lung, a cluster of thatchroofed huts surrounded by cultivated fields that extend up the slopes of the hills which almost surround and make this valley into a natural pocket. Cultivation of these fields was started almost a year ago and has been carried out in authentic Chinese fashion. The hillsides are terraced, and the valley fields are divided into rectangles walled in by dykes to retain the water. Wheat, rice, leeks. , Chinese greens all are flourishing, i An artificial stream flows through the valley, pigeons (at home now after a year on the location) flutter around the huts, a Chinese water wheel, brought all the way across the Pacific, Is in operation. Even the water buffalo whose circular plodding works the pump came from China. He and his mate cost the studio SI,OOO, but, happily, there are six water buffalos now, so the investment was a good one. ♦ We see some action this morning, ■ too. It means a climb, for the troupe is working halfway up a slope that must have had fat cameraman Karl Freund putting heavily before he finally took his post amidst knee- ! high grain. Director Sidney Franklin is shooting a comedy scene. Paul Muni, the Wang Lung of the story, and Luise Rainer, the faithful O-Lan, are I standing on the hillside amidst a I group of 10 or 12 people, all Chinese I except Charley Grape win* who plays Muni’s aged father. The makeups are remarkable. Luise Rainer's high cheek bones giving her face an especially Oriental cast. Everyone is dressed in rough blue two-pieced garments, which Muni says are either too tight or too loose and are ! the most uncomfortable clothes of any human race. The scene is quite simple. A Chinese character actress, sitting beside Director Franklin, screams, and Walter Connolly, the sponging uncle of the story, stands 10 feet behind the camera and shouts: ••It’s gone! The tooth!

la gone! The old woman ha.« swallowed It!" Then everybody In the group aiiwwe breaks Into laughs and shouted comments Bnt the thing doesn't go oft correctly. Director Franklin tries a couple of more takes, then says: “All right, children—after this is lunch," It Is what they need. Th* take is perfect, the company breaks and. with .Muni, wo go scrambling down the hill towards the mess tent and the hot lunch that has been brought 30 miles from Hollywood In caterer's wagons. The picture. "Three Cheers for Love” Is the second in which Elea- , nore Whitney has Injured herself. She sprained her ankle in “Millions In the Air", but this time she jumped from a chair and did something to her spine which virtually paralyzed her legs for three days. Her back Is still taped up when we go on th* set to watch her do the same routine. It's very cute and a bit reminiscent of Astaire's dance over the furniture In “The Gay Divorce”. Bob Cummings and Eleanore start a tap routine on a stack of books, then dance over a chair, another chair and finally Into a davenport, where she ends up In his lap. The number. “Where Is My Heart?” is a honey, but doesn't tax Eleanore's speed. The little Whitney can really step if she has to—ls taps a second. A machine gun shoots only five bullets a second. Out at M. G. M„ Jean Harlow- has started a new picture, “Susy", and we arrive on the set just as she and Franchot Tone are standing up In a car of ancient vintage, frantically cheering the running of the derby at Epsom Downs. It's always funny to see actors cheering something that Isn't going on. and It's particularly funny seeing Franchot cheer a horse race because he Is about the one actor in Hollywood who didn’t get out to Sama

Anita thia season. We go over to talk to him about it after the take is over and run into a story. A tall, middle-aged man with Tone is C. P. Franchot. New York attorney. He is Tone’s cousin and he gave the actor his first Job

in the theater. It was back in 1927. we are told, after Franchot had graduated from college. The job was assistant stage manager with the Gary McGarry stock company in Buffalo. Mr. Franchot, who is seeing Tone act for the first time on a Hollywood sound stage, observes, with a smile, ihiit tilings have changed a lot. For Franchot’s first job. he telle us, paid exactly SIS a week.
