By HARRISON ( AKKOLL Copyright, 1537 King Fruturro syndliolr, lie. HOLLYWOOD - Wonder what Hepburn thinks of Bill Fields now ? At the Bel Air Country club, Paramount's "Big Broadcast" company
was working on the thirteenth green, while the Hepburn troupe from R-K-O had cameras set up on the thirteenth tee. Every few minutes, Fields would make some loud comment about Hepburn. Such as: “Yea sir, I
Katharine Hepburn
knew Kitty when she was a little girl—before she ever wore a pair ot slacks or one of (hose funny hats.” Climax came when the Hepburn company moved to another spot. Fact sometimes outdoes the fables of Hollywood press agents. Up at Big Bear lake Ginger Rogers and Maxine Jennings are both on location for R-K-O's "Having a Wonderful Time”. The I other day Miss Jennings’ brother, Don, paid the company a visit. With him was his wife, the former Babe Cowart. She was the girl whom Ginger , Rogers defeated 11 years ago in ' the Charleston contest that sent the redheaded star on the way to screen fame. The tw’o had never met from that time until the other day. Must carry Clarence Brown back to the old days to be directing Jack Gilbert’s daughter, Lea- j ■ trice, in “Benefits Forgot”. Some i 25 years ago Brown and the late star worked together as assistant directors to Maurice Tourneur, one of the big shots of the time. Tourneur had another assistant, Charles Dorian. Until the other | day, Dorian was assistant to Brown. Now M. G. M. has made him a director on his own. Nice break for Katherine De Mille and Anthony Quinn. As 1 soon as "The Buccaneer” is finished, Cecil B. De Mille is lending them his $250,000 yacht for a , honeymoon cruise. Hear that Lon Chaney, Jr., and Robert Kent are going into the daughter Mary Lou and Mrs. Emma Tellehoe and son George have returned to their homes in Reading, Penn., after a several days’ visit with Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Steele of east of Decatur. C. E. Bell has returned from a business trip to Homesdale, Pa., and New York City. The La Fontaine Handle company mill at H.aiesdale is running full tilt. It is ■ operated by Verne Bohnke, formerly of this city. While in New York. Mr. Bell saw one of the world series baseball games. o PASTORS CLOSE ICXINTIN U El 1 y »!' > '? 1 ** *7 ' - with hate in his heart, although all his other relations with his fellow beings be pure.

Reading up for “Jezebel”, Bette Davis has unearthed an early eighteenth century treatise on the art of kissing. The author, name i of Nyrop, lists 84 types of oscula- i tion. "The sound of a kiss,” -he observes, "either resembles the soft ' splash of waves against the pebbles of the beach or the noise of a cow's hoof being dragged out of a swamp.” Nice romantic chap. Beverly Hills police got quite a shock. ... A switchboard operator reported the telephone receiver had been knocked off the hook in Rosalind Russell's home and that , she could hear a lot of commotion and a dog whining. But when the gendarmes arrived, Miss Russell ; was safe on “The Four Marys" set I at M. G. M. Her wire-haired terrier was the culprit.
