Maria Montez . . . the feminine Victor Mature.

2 8 #

By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Hollywood Correspondent . HOLLYWOOD, ‘Aug. 14—What Miss Maria Montez can’t understand is that when 10,000 soldiers write for her photograph, 9999 of them instruct her to: pose in as few clothes as possible.

She said so today on the pink sands of Universal Studio’s Araby, where she was wearing as little as the law (and the Hays office) allows. Miss Montez, who comes from Puerto Rico and who is regarded here-

“Those soldiers,” said Miss Montez between sinuous wriggles on the burning sands, “must be sculptors at heart. Else why would they want pictures of me without clothes?”

Don’t Tell Her

We could-have told Miss Montez why, but we didn’t. We just stood there, dumb-like, looking at the proceedings, which were as torrid as they were technicolored. ‘The opus. in production was titled “Arabian Nights” and all we can say after a long glance at Miss Montez and her assistant dancing beauties is that it is not intended ‘for juvenile matinees. Not if producer Walter Wanger can help it, it isn’t. Miss Montez, wearing a filmy white nothing with gold edges, and plenty of Miss Montez in between, had just ‘given the bogus sultan, Leif Erikson, a beaker of poisoned wine. Now she was going to entertain him while he died. The set out on the back lot was a little whizg-ding. A year ago it would have included ' towering minarets and marble statues and mysterious grilled doors leading to the harem. The government ended that kind of business with its edict limiting set costs to $5000 for new material in any one picture.

Sand Dyed Pink

So the boys got some sand, dyed it pink, and sprinkled it on the ground on the back lot. They built some tents of canvas, which had been dyed gold and baby blue, in front of the tents they installed a portable bath tub, lined it with fur (honest) and filled it with water with blueing in it. Then they put some parrots around on perches, placed the dancing beauties and the Nubian slaves where they’d do the most good and came up with a movie setting which probably will knock your eye out. It cost only a few hundred dollars and indicated once again that war-

{time restrictions probably will do

Hollywood more good than harm, simply by forcing the picture makers to use their ingenuity. Anyhow there was Erickson getting ready to die on his jewel-stud-ded couch, while the slaves fanned him with egret feathered wands.

| The fanning didn’t do much good.

Dream It Yourself

Between each take the ‘makeup department had to mop the sweat from beneath Erickson’s turban. “Also,” he said, “I have on an oil oth vest to keep the sweat from g through these pretty clothes. ight for the clothes; not so good for 2 « And that brings us to Miss Montez and her dance. You might as well shut your eyes and dream. up the scene yourself. Make it good and sultry, while you're about it.

VOICE from the

by RICHARD LEWIS

That Faint Applause

I'VE OFTEN WONDERED how it feels to stand up Fthors in front of: the audience, tell a perfectly funny gag and then receive applause so feeble that it hardly drowns out the whir_of the air-conditioning pumps backstage. It must. be worse than getting the hook. ‘Little John Leonard got that treatment at Keith's first show

yesterday, but he showed himself able to take it.

fellow .drew himself up to his full 300 pounds (net weight) returned the cold shoulder from whence it came. © And made ‘the audience like it.’ It is true that Little John’s humor is new to the:stage of Keith’s. That is to say, it is good. It's a little sharper, more original, more pointed than the broad slapstick variety vaudeville fans are accustomed to. But it’s all there. = Maybe the audience wasn’t really apathetic. Maybe it was amazed, thrown off stride by Little John’s change of pace. He’s m. ¢. and pulls gags all through the show. His gags are so smooth that they tend to rell off, unless you're fully awake to catch them. When one misses, as several good ones did, Little John stops, fixes the front row with a baleful glare and commands those three people who giggled to sit together. “Now,” he“said as he ‘went into his own act, “I'll sing a few songs from two Broadway shows I'd like to be in.” Introducing the Youman Bros. and Frances, Little John began giving them the usual build-up. “You've heard of the new musical picture, ‘Tales of Manhattan’?” he asked. “Well, these three saw it.”

Skippy Connects

THE YOUMAN BROS. are Skippy and George. Frances is the girl violinist in the act. She plays very well. George plays the accordion, very well. Skippy’s clarinet is sensational, as good as I've heard anywhere. The . acrobatic - comedians this week are Emmet & Oldfield, a couple of real professionals. The six Brucettés are shapely girl acrobatic’ dancers. Chained to each other's ankles, Jim Hess and his girl partner, Chuckie, do tap dances. The Niess trio have a graceful, well-timed trampoline act. On the screen, Keith’s is showing “Prisoner of Japan.” Worthy of attention is an unusual short subject, “Hidden Hunger,” with Walter Brennan dramatizing the significance of the food we grow.

BOOTLEGGERS USING

HONEY FOR LIQUOR |;

CUSHING, Okla. (U. P.).—Oklahoma’s bootleggers have. found a substitute for sugar since rationing went into effect. The substitute is honey. A Payne county officer thinks it is a good substitute, too. Officials recently raided a still in an abandoned farmhouse and found many honey containers lying around. The mash smelled and “looked” even better than mash made with sugar, one deputy said.
