privilege of playing Juliet in New York during the coming World's Fair, A talent search is being conducted by Frank Lea Short, who feels that it is a mistake for actresses from 30 to 50 years old to play the famous Shakespearean role. He also feels a young actress, not over 22, could create the part as Shakespeare intended when he wrote of Juliet being 14. Director Short already has interviewed many applicants at his New York office, but so far has failed to find a suitable actress.

'‘Romp-With' Is New Studio Aid

Times Special HOLLYWOOD, July 1.—To the stand-in, Hollywood has added the “romp-with.” When Ray McCarey began di- | recting “Life Begins With Love,” he drew Douglass Montgomery, Jean Parker and little Edith Fellows in his cast, as well as two canine stars, Jerry, a huge St. Bernard, and Squeegee, a tiny Peke. They naturally became company pets. Everybody wanted to play with them. That was all right, until McCarey cast 22 children for an orphanage sequence. Within an hour the dogs were too tired to stand up, to say nothing of act. It was impossible to control the children, and McCarey needed his dogs through the whole picture, so he took a unique step. He had Rennie Renfro, their owner, bring in another dog from his VanNuys kennel. It turned out to be a frisky little mongrel named Spooks, the kind of dog anv child would love. Now he is tied outside the stage for the youngsters to romp with, and havpily “takes the rap” far Jerry and Squeegee.
