something of cinema legends.

Today Hollywood has most of the entertainment capital in its own coffers. The stage has been brought to heel, and few of its stars can hold out long againét the enticing salaries for camera appearances. Radio and movie stars can dicker. in terms of four-figure weekly salaries for ap-

pearances in rival branches of the “i-ocacaiament art. : < Proof enough of the changing order is found in the cast of “The Life of the Party,” which opened at the Circle today. Of a half dozen principals, only one, Gene Raymond, is known principally as a film star. The others built their reputations in radio or on the stage.

Penner an Example

Joe Penner, the picture's star, has come up the hard way. For years he banged about in burlesque and vaudeville, then finally in musical comedy. One evening Rudy Vallee

Hot? Here's Nice Cool Data on Ice.

By GEORGE ROSS

EW YORK, Sept. 10.—On the prowl for a hot weather piece; your correspondent has learned all about ice. His authority is a Jamaica Negro, named Theodore Roosevelt, who is an ice artist by trade. Up at the Rainbow Grill in. Radio City he fashions statues of willing patrons out of the ice from the refrigerator. And, appropriately enough, he

took an order for an ice statuette of Sonja Henie the other day in honor of her film, “Thin Ice.” The statuette survived two hours. It was then chopped up for Scotch and sodas.

first official act is the an-|

nouncement of private auditions, to be held at the theater on Sunday and Monday nights between 7:30 and 11

o’clock. Anyone interested in taking part in the forthcoming season's plays may attend, but applicants will be seen by appointment only. A time for auditions may be secured by calling the Civic Theater office. The new director has asked that each candidate be prepared to present a short scene of not more than five minutes’ length. “It is suggested,” Mr. Etcheverry said, “that actors do not impose on themselves the burden of too many The audition is designed to determine, in as far as possible, acting talent rather than memorizing ability.” Copies of several suggested scenes may be had free of charge at the Civic office. These, however, are not

‘required. Candidates may bring ma-

terial from any play of: their own choice, or they may present original scenes. :

White,” more than 50 radio stations were combed for the heroine's voice alone. Hundreds of auditions were held for all of the characters and most of the names of those supplying the voices for the “Snow White” cast are well known to stage and motion picture audiences. In the case of such established old faithfuls as Donald Duck, the Goof, Pluto, and Clara Cluck, the individuals who lend their voices to these characters have heen under contract to the studio since the characters first saw celluloid. Walt Disney himself is the voice of Mickey Mouse.

“SONG OF THE “WILD HORSE ROUNDUP”

Mr. Einstein. He came from the advertising business to Eddie Cantor’s show, with a dialect as his chief recommendation. That's all he needed, apparently, for he clicked with Cantor and is now making his third picture. “The Life of the Party” also marks Harriet Hilliard’s third screen ap- - pearance. Like Dorothy Lamour, _ Miss Hilliard started out as a radio singer with a dance band, married her boss and then was drafted to the West Coast.

Beauty Contest Winner

In private life, Miss Hilliard is married to Ozzie Nelson, while Miss Lamour is Mrs. Herbie Kay. There is one difference, however. Miss La-~ Zz mour came from a business school ‘to the footlights via a beauty contest, while the Circle picture’s ingenue had the proverbial wardrobe = trunk for a cradle. Her father was ~. a stage manager and her mother sn = actress. Victor Moore and Helen Broderick, - who round out | the featured cast, = have come to Hollywood after a long i. line of musical comedy and dramatic ‘successes.

Anyway, Theodore Roosevelt : i unday __ . 5 knows about ice. So coc! off, if you : a like, with the following facts:

On high mountains, ice sonietimes acts as a sun glass and starts fires. (Frost fires no doubt.) The best way to remove chewing gum from carpets and clothing 1s to apply ice first.

ICHIGAN STATE College has L found that ice is the best remedy for bruises in football games. When the French built the Eiffel Tower in 1882, the Russians decided to top them. In St. Petersburg, the Russian capital, they built an exact replica of the Eiffel Tower—made entirely of ice! (It lasted five years.) Because she fainted twice from the heat during the filming of “Camille,” Garbo now has 2 portable cooling system on her set at all times, consisting of an ice chest with a suction fan run by a silent electric motor. The latest wrinkle in cooling devices is a strap loaded with dry ice which is worn around
