THE SPEEDWAY FLYER

Hr VIRGINIA VAX.E (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) WHEN you see Paramount’s version of Joseph Conrad’s “Victory” (directed by John Cromwell, co-starring Frederic March and Betty Field), you’ll see some of the most-traveled film ever -shown. Scenes were shot in Sourbaya, on the island of Java, in the Dutch East Indies; __ then the cans of film were transported by train, native boat, and finally by Chinese air line to Hong Kong. A Pan-American clipper flew it to Manila, and there it stayed; so many passengers were waiting to take the clipper home that there was no room for part of a movie. It came along on the next scheduled flight. Meanwhile the cast was working at Baldwin lake. The scenes shot in the actual location of

BETTY FIELD the story will be slipped in with the ones shot on the American location —and it won’t be surprising if the Baldwin lake shots are the more convincing. —* — More than 100 boys are being paid for having the time of their lives; they’re portraying real-life cadets in Columbia’s “Military Academy, 1 " and much of the action calls for them to disport themselves on the track and football field of a local military academy. They sprint, put the shot, pole-vault—and the checks come rolling in. Tommy Kelly, Bobby Jordan, David Holt and Jackie Searl are in the cast. \ —« — Four-year-old Dickie Lyon, son of Bebe Daniels and Ben Lyon, (and don’t tell me that you don’t remember those two picture stars!) is worried. He’s working in "The Howards of Virginia,” and doesn’t want his parents to find it out. "They told me pictures was bad,” he declares. Bebe and Ben have been starring in a stage play in London, and they sent the boy back to California to live with his grandmother several months ago, because of the war. Frank Lloyd, who’s directing "Hie Howards of Virginia," persuaded Mrs. Daniels to let Dickie take the role of the young son of Cary Grant and Martha Scott, and Dickie is doing remarkably well—except that he’s worried. He’s afraid of what his mother will think when she sees him on the screen. "Maybe she won’t like it," he says, ominously. But Lloyd’s not anxious. Some time ago he told Bebe that little Dickie was a good picture prospect, And she said, "I’d trust him with you.” —* — Uncle Ezra (Pat Barrett) of radio’s National Bam Dance is highly enthusiastic over making movies in Hollywood, but the most difficult thing he had to adjust himself ter was the delay in starting. He recently returned to Chicago from the cinema city after making "Coming ’Round the Mountain” with Bob Burns; later he’ll go back to Paramount and do two mo^e.

Virginia Dale and Lillian Cornell, whom you’ve seen or perhaps will tee in “Buck Benny Rides Again,” will supply the feminine interest in “Touchdown,” with Wayne Morris. * Frances Langford finished a broadcast, then drove 700 miles to the Navajo Indian reservation in Arizona to spend her second wedding anniversary with her husband, Jon Hall, who’s starring in "Kit Carson,” an Edward Small production. There are 50,000 Navajo Indians on the reservation, bat the role of Indian chief went to A 1 Klkumi, a fall blooded Hawaiian.
