By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright, 1937, King Features Syndicate, Inc. I HOLLYWOOD—There’s a first ! class side show going on as we watch the “Walter Wanger’s Vogues of 1938” set. Almost as good as the picture itself. It has all that it takes: comedy, romance, thrills. Comedy is supplied by two of Hollywood’s craziest set jokesters, Alan Mowbray and Mischa Auer. Today, they have Director Irving Cummings al.iost frantic with their ribs. So far the score is: Mowbray putting pepper on in ostrich feather Auer uses in the ritzy dress salon, shooting seltzer water as Cummings and Auer rehearse a close up, pinning an “I Can’t Act” sign on Auer’s back for him to tote into the scene. Score for Auer is a fake coughing fit while Mowbray is doing a scene, dropping rice on cellophane to make a sound like rain when Mowbray walks down the long flight of stairs and says, in the picture, how dry the weather is. With enough to worry him on his first color film, Director Cummings gets back by having Auer do a long scene before an empty camera and by rehearsing Mowbray up and down the long flight of stairs 25 times before the comedian discovers it isn’t in the script. Romance is supplied by the dozen handpicked Wanger models. Every leading man on the lot .s playing hookey to spark the beauties on the set. The thrill comes when a red hot carbon drops out of an arc lamp on one of the elaborate, pastel drapes and the sparks fly up. What was a scene of orderly drama in front of the camera breaks up into a suddenly tense, anxious mob as the actors watch the crew swarm up those ritzy stairs to put out the fire. Warner Baxter stands by to give aid. With a serious face, Joan Bennett’s maid hurriedly leads the star over the tangle of cables and props toward the door of the sound stage. But the blaze is soon put out and the show, in front and behind the camera goes on. Lubitsch acts when directing a scene as much as four actors put together. He is directing Marlene
’ tion of Miss Mildred Worthman, Miss Eloise Lewton and Mrs. Hugh Holthouse, members of the faculty. At 11 p. m., the floor show was announced by Bud Anspaugh, master of ceremonies. A novelty tap dance by Dixie i Miller was followed by dance and song number by Noreen Fullenkamp and Billy Howell. Jimmy Brennan was next with a song and dance number. Gretchen Stuckey, of Geneva, returned to the floor show by popular request and played and sang two numbers. James Krick gave a monologue in dialect. The program was closed with an artistic dance by Donnabelle Fenimore. The dancing was resumed after the floor show. Mne. D. O. Feagler and eon David returned to their home in Mt. Clemens, Michigan, yesterday after a several weeks’ visit with the former's parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Harkleee. The Rev. Misses Laura Cline and Ethel Hollingsworth of Winona I Lake were guests Friday of Mrs. Jesse Swartz, who is ill at her home on North Second street- The two ladies, who were former pastors of the Union Chape.! church near here, report that they are serving two :-fine congregations near Warsaw
Dietrich, Herbert Marshall and Melvyn Douglas in one of those quiet, "dynamite" scenes where the drama lurks under the airy dialogue as we watch the making of "Angel”. As he steps back to watch a rehearsal, we ask him how he keeps up his interest in every little word spoken. His eyes smile wisely as he answers, "You can’t afford to let your enthusiasm drop in this business". The scene hasn’t quite got the Lubitsch touch yet, and he steps in to show how the lines should go. The scene calls for Douglas to hide the fact he has clandestinely met Marlene, Marshall’s wife, earlier in the story. He is describing the girl. "She was radiant, exciting, mysterious —’’ prompts Lubitsch, putting his soul into the words, his heart into his facial expressions. Suddenly a carpenter up in the runways pulls out a long nail from a two by four, slowly, with a sound resembling a Bronx cheer. Lubitsch stops, turns a reproachful look up at the workman, shrugs his shoulders and goes back to his director’s post to call "Quiet. We'll take it”. An “after the ball was over” atmosphere clings to the big masquerade set for M-G-M’s "The Emperor's Candlesticks". The boxes and floors of the ballroom are littered with festoons of confetti and jovial debris. And it is after the ball for at least one of the players In the picture. A belated group of revelers art dancing and making merry in a corner of the ballroom in front of a box where Robert Young, masked as Romeo, Maureen O’Sullivan as Juliet and Frank Morgan dressed as a Capulet are playing a scene. . One of the set assistants calls to an extra, clad In the raiment of revelry, and late getting to Her place in the mob. “Hey, what’s your name?” The music seems to die down In the playback hem as she tells her name. She turns around and we see it Is Kathleen Key, who once basked her time In Hollywood’s starlight. She takes her place. The musle, ■The Blue Danube” goes on. But it might just as well ba "After the > BaU Was Over”, ,
