Dahl, American aviator captured by Insurgent forces in Spain, said to-, day she could ‘"only hope for best" when informed her son is a “prisoner for life" of generalissimo' Francisco Franco. “I'm resigned to whatever happens," she said.

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright, 1938 Kins teuturcn byndhate, Inc. HOLLYWOOD—Lights! Camera! Action! Anything can happen on a movie set Out at Twentieth Century-Fox, Bill Powell, who is one of Hollywood's highest paid stars, Is playing a butler who goes into politics and

makes speeches denouncing the rich. The picture is "The Baroness and the Butler” and the baroness is played by I Annabella, the I French star. We watch DlI rector Walter Lang shoot a 1 scene between the two.

wfc" I jj Annabella «*•

In this particular shot, the game of love and not the game of politics is being played. Powell and Annabella are facing

each other across a small table. He la wearing white tie and tails. She a black evening gown. He is a butler in her father’s home but. this night is attending a party as a political personage. She loves I him but isn't ready to admit it. I They are fencing with small talk. Annabella offers Powell a cigaret. He remarks that it is an expensive Turkish brand with a rose leaf tip. This is no fake. The cigarets used in the scene really do have rose leaf tips and cost $5 a box. Powell smokes only a few puffs in the scene, then hands the cigaret to an assistant director. He passes it around the set as a curiosity and the electricians sniff | it and make faces. After the last take, however, Powell comes off the set smoking the cigaret. This is unusual, for Powell, whose finesse in lighting a , cigaret is equalled by few actors, doesn’t smoke off-screen. If you notice, he always holds a cigaret away from him. Otherwise the smoke gets in his I eyes and bothers him, like any' amateur. Walking over to another stage, we find Dolores Del Rio, George Sanders and Leon Ames doing a scene for "Shanghai Deadline”. This thriller, dealing with the munitions racket, has several claims to distinction. It is the only Shanghai picture Hollywood has made since the war that actually takes place in Shanghai. Others have been on trains going to Shanghai, or it has been explained the heroine has a cousin living in Shanghai, but this I

Cruisers followed the dreadnaughts and de- ; stroyers were called from their' tactical maneuvers to rush ahead of the larger craft. Dozens of small surface vessels,' tenders and launches, moved out en masse. ■lt was the most extensive search ever undertaken off these shores. In command of the lost plane was Lieut. T. E. Carpenter, of Possumpsic, Vt. His crew included: Cadet Philip O. Browning, Lee’s Summit, Mo.; Edgar Anglin,, aviation chief machinists’ mate,' Norfolk. Va.; G. A.

one really takes place in Shanghai during the recent siege. The picture Is reticent on only one point. No mention is made of the Japs at all. The enemy remains anonymous. Another of the film’s claims to distinction Is that the heavy gets shot while sitting down. It Is an established rule in Hollywood that all heavies get shot standing up and do a tumble to the floor. We watch the scene leading up to where Heavy Leon Ames comes to this unconventional end. It Is in a ship's cabin and the hero, George Sanders, has come to retrieve a money belt containing a million dollars. When Ames refuses, his long suffering wife, Dolores Del Rio, whips out a pistol and compels him to surrender the money. Right after this In the story, Ames is killed. There Is no use waiting around for this scene, however. It has been shot three days before. A confusing business, the movies.

Many a Hollywood star will get a laugh out of R-K-O's "Joy of Loving”, for Irene Dunne plays an . actress who supports all her relatives. We watch Director Tay Garnett shoot a scene of the family circle. It Is before breakfast and Miss Dunne is receiving the advice of her loved ones. Alice Brady and Guy Kibbee are her mother and father. Then, there are her sister, Lucille Ball; her sister’s husband, Frank Milland, and her five-year-old nieces, the Steiner twins. It is evident that Miss Dunne is doing all right

tine of these three actresses and ask them about it. Miss Dunne and Miss Brady always eat breakfast in bed. Miss Dunne is apt to wear the same kind of a robe she wears in this scene. Miss Brady favors a furlined jacket. Lucille Ball says: “I eat breakfast in bed when I can, but it isn’t often. What do I wear 7 Well, nothing like this. When I get up, I often jump into an old broken I clown bathrobe ”

i machinists’ mate, 3rd class, Rich- ' land, N. Y., and L. Peace, chief machinists’ mate, San Diego. The plane was flying alone, observing ships that passed and making reports on them by radio. That was what the navy called “security patrol." Object of these man- > euvers, which began mysteriously - five days days before Christmas, ■ never was explained by naval auth- • orities. Numerous theories were ’ 1 circulated. One, published last I week, was that the navy was aid- ! ing the coast guard in hunting ■ boats owned by foreigners and ilt legally registered under the American flag. Coast guardshmen 1 seized one Japanese fishing boat • and announced that many other ! foreigners were using American f porst illegally. As evidence that ■ the navy was cooperating, naval • launches armed with machine guns ■ patrolled San Diego bay nightly, • and bluejackets halted and board- ■ ed numerous fishing boats to examine the papers and question the >! crews. California newspapers printed 'other rumors; that the navy was I concerned with a spy scare; that papers containing secret information on the Brenerton, Wash., navy yard had been taken from a Japanese liner; that a “fleet of foreign submarines" had been sighted off the coast. None of these rumors got any congrmation, and navy authorities continued to state that the maneuvers were routine. They began with an emergency mobilization that recalled many seamen from holiday leaves ashore. The last word from the lost plane was a radio report Wednesday afternoon, when it was 200 miles northwest of Point Loma, which is across the bay from San Diego. The message reported no trouble, indicating that the bomber was cruising smoothly. Prevailing opinion was that the plane struck the sea and sank immediately. A similar bomber nosedived into the bay here a few months ago and six men were killed, as evidence that the airboats were not fool proof against emergency landings. o HIRSCHEY CASE the state. He denied, on cross examination, of having been Intimate with the girl, at which point the state finished its examination. The state this morning called Dr. Eicher, who testified that Mrs. Hirschey had said, "John doesn't want any trouble and will pay the doctor bill.” This was a statement i she had denied on cross examin--1

In his opening argument, Arthur Voglewede pinned great Importance on the testimony of the girl. I which he said was not shaken in; the cross examination because it, I was the truth. He said that the ■testimony of Dr. Daniel should be counted more highly than that of. Dr. Eicher, because Dr. Daniel was | not the personal physician of elth'er of the parties.
