to delay a picture. Take the case of “Listen Darling’’ at M-G-M. Marv Astor’s fall from a horse may hold up production for days, even weeks. When Producer Roach tried to get Carole Lombard for “There Goes My Heart”, David Selznick asked a penalty of $15,000 a day. ’ The deal fell through. The big grosses run up by "Algiers” prove that even the smartest studios make mistakes. M-G-M paid $50,000 for “Pepe Le Moko”, the French picture from ! which “Algiers” was made. They sold it to Wanger and arranged for him to borrow Hedy Lamarr. Now Wanger has a smash hit. On the suggestion of both the studio and his mother, Mickey [ Rooney’s orchestra, “The Swing Six”, will have to get along without Mickey in the future. Film [ work will keep the boy star plenty j occupied, they figure. Few people realize what a veteran Rooney is in the show business. He made his first appearance at the age of 15 months when he was carried onto a vaudeville stage. Is it true that peacocks are better insurance than watch dogs against surprise visits by burglars ? Mary Carlisle has bought one partly on this theory. She has to work so many nights at Paramount and her mother is left alone. You seldom hear of peacocks these days. Isabel Dawn, the ’ writer, is one of the few Holly--1 wood celebs besides Mary to own one. Harry Richman is packing them in at the Clover club. On opening night, he got an ovation such as Hollywood has seldom given a case entertainer. The usually 1 poker-faced Louis B Mayer burst out with an “Attaboy, Harry!” Everybody was yelling requests for songs.
