HOLLYWOOD, April 28 (U. P.) —One of those: things that happen only in Hollywood made Mrs. Nora McGillacudy,

Curry, park corporation president,

‘| said today.

The pavilion renovation includes the laying of a new and larger dance floor and construction of a modern orchestra shell. Work also is under way on construction of tennis court and baseball diamonds east of the Broad Ripple pool. The 25-year-old roller rink is being removed and work on. a new one is to begin shortly. :

a serubwoman, a. motion picture director today. Mrs. McGillacudy, pail and mop in hand, came into Director Louis King’s office daily at Paramount Studio. They became - friends. Mr. King was assigned a picture called “Prison Farm” in which Shirley Ross, film star, and other actresses use soap and scrubbrush in an agricultural penal colony.

Both pictures have been reviewed and recommended here: “Rebecca,”

because Shirley Temple is a bigger

and slightly better Shirley, and sur-

. rounded by a first-rate cast; “Test Pilot,” because it is one of the best aviation pictures ever made. Its stars are Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and. Spencer Tracy, its subject - matter and treatment are absorbing, - and the air photography is an event in your scresn experience. Fine as the performances are, the photog-

raphy grows upon one in retrospect |

. (at least, it did on this spectator) once the excitement of the actual seeing has worn off.

Photographer Is Hero

Heroes of this camera achievement are- Ray June, the photoerapher, and Slavko Vorkapich, the montage-effect expert who saw to it that the studio magic became

reality on the screen. Part of the gir shots were taken at the Cleveland Air Races. (for the Thompson Trophy sequence), the rest at Army and commercial fields near Hollywood. Beside these, there are the “fake” closeups concocted in the studio. How they were accomplished Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer naturally isn’t telling. Certainly enjoyment could not be heightened any by knowing. “Test Pilot” was a year in preparation and three months in ‘actual filming. Six weeks of this time were taken for the location shots.

The net results are two hours of as exciting, satisfying entertainment as has come to the screen in many months.

Johhny Burke, Old-Timer

Meanwhile, at the Lyric, the stage and screen shows will offer something old and something new in the way of performers. Headlining the stage show will be Johnny Burke. And if your vaudeville experience antedates the talkies and the depression, you surely must have seen him. Shortly after the World War, Johnny came out with his humorous monolog of the dumb and bashful doughboy. It was modeled a bit after the “Dere Mabel” letter of wartime fame. At last report, not a line had been changed in nearly 20 years. _ The new attraction is Richard Greene, featured with Loretta Young in the Lyric’s picture, “Four Men and-a Prayer.”—J. T,

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES : Due Monday|

Fitzgerald Will Be on Screen And Stage Here.

‘On Monday and Tuesday of next week, Barry Fitzgerald will accomplish the commonplace paradox of being in two places at-once. As a Hollywood actor, he will be seen on the Lyric screen as a Cockney soldier in “Four Men and a Prayer.” At the same time, he will be appearing on English’s stage with his Irish compatriots from the Abbey Theater, his alma mater. Mr. Fitzgerald will be seen in Synge’s “The Playboy of the Western World” on Monday night, and in Sean O’'Casey’s “Juno and the Paycock,” which will close the brief engagement on the following evening.

With him in “The Playboy” will be Ria Mooney and Arthur Shields

when it played here 10 years ago.

to become her assistant director. The Irish actress remained in New York until 1932, when the Abbey company returned here. She left the Abbey the following year to become leading lady at Dublin's Gate Theater, and returned in 1935. Mr. Shields combines his acting duties with those of stage manager for the Abbey Players. He joined the group in 1916, and left it shortly after for a prison term in England, thanks to his part in th “Easter rising.” ’ The opening Abbey performance at English’s Monday night also will include. Lady Gregory's one-act “Rising of the Moon.” At the Tuesday matinee they will do “The Far Off Hills,” a comedy by Lenncw Robinson. One of Ireland’s bestknown dramatists, Mr. Robinson also

is director of the Abbey School of Acting in Dublin.
