unless you nappen to Know Fred Astaire. He is making up a film like that for his private library. Quite a blow to Hollywood's conceit, but the only autograph Fernand Gravet wanted to take back to France was Tom Mix’s. Gravet was an officer in the Belgian cavalry, and always has admired Tom’s equestrian skill. Incidentally, Mervyn Le Roy’s new star sails for France on the 16th. He makes one picture and returns to Hollywood. Success hasn’t made Bob Burns forget. When the inventor of the bazooka was trying to make a name on the radio, he became friendly with Ted Dante, who had charge of the parking lot at the National Broadcasting studio. Recently, Dante ran into a bit of hard luck, and asked Bums if he could get him a job at Paramount "I'll make you my stand-in,” said Bob. And he did, although Dante is four inches shorter than the comedian. He has to stand on wooden blocks to bring him to the required height Here and there in Hollywood. . . .

And Jean Muir has moved out of her apartment rather than give up her dog, which the management objected to. Flash! Fencing lessons proved too realistic for Patrie Knowles, English actor, who just had the tip of his ear clipped off by a foil. Several years ago, the actor had the same ear cauliflowered and paid a big fee to have it repaired by plastic surgery.
