Big Theater For Shirley's Shows Here
She's a Big-Time Star
Now, and Will Be Seen At Indiana.
By JAMES THRASHER Movie-goers intent upon seeing Shirley Temple in “Heidi” this week will have to drag reluctant feet past the Apollo and continue around the corner to the Indiana. This isn't going to be easy. Seeing Shirley at the Apollo is more than a habit in Indianapolis. It's a tra-
dition. Ever since the world's No. 1 cinema prodigy was a 3-year-old in two-reelers, her accustomed haunt has been the cozy little Illinois St. theater. Now, star, Shirley theater, For child actress’
perhaps as befits a big-time is moving to a bigger “Heidi” marks the second excursion into those dramatic realms where the star must pluck the audience's heartstrings with pathos instead of simply delight the spectators wi ith “cuteness.” Stories Grow Up, Too In “Wee Willie Winkie,” Shirley's mployvers took a familiar Kip ory. changed the hero into a heroime, and spent a million dollars to show the world that they intended keeping pace with the inexo process of growing up. Now once again, Shirley as a prime fixer-upper movie.

Having considered some of the recent changes in the Temple ca- | reer, it might be well to ena this| story with mention of one constant factor. That is Col. Kenneth T. Collins. It's good to know that Col. Collins is continuing as Shirley's exclusive Indianapolis impressario. For seven vears he managed the Apollo and showed you all the Tem- | ple pictures within reach. Now he has moved over to shepherd the Indiana's current progress. | So when you see Shirley's name up in lights on the Indiana marguee, and the Colonel standing be1eath, vou'll know that everything's going to Ye all right.

STARDOM SLATED FOR EX-I. U. COED
By PAUL HARRISON HOLLYWOOD, Oct.
20.—Of the | new order of movie actresses, Mar- |

Al
people on the 20th-Fox lot have |
criticized Miss Weaver, gently, for being too doggoned purposeful. That also is the impression an interviewer gets until he suddenly realizes that her disconcerting honesty is the biggest dif-

ference between Miss Weaver and a |
lot of other ambitious
young |
In less than a year she seems to |
have taken Hollywood's measure.
She has figured out its “angles,” its |
phoney aspects and its vulnerable points. She seems as wise as a Crawford or a Lombard, but much more frank.
Acting Is a 24-Hour Job
Sitting at lunch with Marjorie

“You wouldn't believe the hours
I've spent, late at night, figuring on
every detail of the next day. Think-
ing of the people I'd meet, how I'd |
act, what I'd say. Mentally rehearsing every move I'd make, the clothes I'd wear—the angles on everything. And there is an angle to everything. “A player's first year in Hollywood is not the time for temperament or squawking. Whatever I was asked to do, I never complained. I wouldn't have opened my mouth in protest if they'd decided to chop me in little pieces.”

merchant. All through school she promoted, directed and starred in plays. At college she was the leading lady in annual musicals for three successive years. She belonged to one of the leading sororities—Kappa Kappa Gamma— but sang with a band at university dances for $5 a night.
For four successive years she was voted the most beautiful girl on the campus. She has licenses to teach French and English. Her colijege roommate, Judy Park, (now her stand-in), sent Marjorie’s picture to a fan magazine in New York which was conducting a beauty contest. She won it, together with a dance scholarship and a movie contract. During 11 months in Hollywood she has appeared in 18 pictures, but never in good roles until recently. The entire 20th-Fox lot is talking about her now: Weaver—she’ll be a star in a year.” Her part in “Second Honeymoon” was rewritten for her and enlarged in recognition of her talents.
