OLLYWOOD, Jan. 4 (U P).— Ingrid Bergman, Swedish actress, today cabled acceptance of the role of Joan of Arc.

In accepting Producer David O. i

Selznick’s offer, Miss Bergman said she will leave Stockholm within a few weeks for Lisbon and fly to America on a Pan-American Clipper. Upon leaving Hollywood for home last fall, Miss Bergman agreed to return if a suitable screen role were found for her, Her only previous American screen appearance ‘was in “Intermezzo.”

RELEASE TITLE

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 4 (U. P.)— Blond and shapely Lois Hall, a- 20-year-old actress who caught a film producer’s eye while on the stage with John Barrymore’s show, was in Hollywood today with a chance for overnight stardom. The girl, who had no previous screen experience, was brought here by Producer Sol Lesser to be tested for the role of Emily in Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer - Prize play, “Our Town.” Mr. Lesser saw her in Chicago where she was appearing as one of Mr. Barrymore's daughters in. the play, “My Dear Children.” He in-

Or, as Mr. Coyne more specifically states it, the stars, if torced to use their true names, “would not want to disgrace their tamilies by getting so many divorces.” : 8 #8 & SO THIS YEAR Mr. Coyne appealed to a fellow Democrat, James Roosevelt, to support the bill as a “moral and civic duty.” Mr. Roosevelt politely declined to win friends and influence people in its favor. In his letter of reply, Mr. Roose-
