The most recent “gala premiere” was attended by only a scattering of recognized stars. There was an abundant crowd, the usual old time horde of autograph seekers, the fans who had begun congregating during the afternoon for choice po- sitions along the “line of march.” But their fervor had scant re- ward, except in the customary bus- tle and ballyhoo, for most of the inveterate premiere attenders were missing. They're Still. There The phenomenon scarcely can be held to denote a considerable change in the personnel of the stellar ranks. Many whose absence was noted are still in Hollywood, | still active in pictures, certainly still able to meet the reduced fees for first night tickets. Rather, it may indicate a change in star psychology, a growing away from the period which found de- light in the parading of ermines and sables and jewels, in the hom- age and cheers of a crowd with|, nothing better to do than render homage and cheers to movie stars. Perhaps those stars who always groaned at the thought of payinz titled prices for .the privilege of fighting crowds and being stared at, who always threatened to rebel and stay at home, are casting aside old fears and actually staying at home. 1 On The Other Hand— And then iagain all these con- clusions may be 1t may have just happened. Still, it's an- other occasion to herald the pass- ing of the Hollywood premtere with its “stars, lights, flowers.” This has been heralded before, often with result that the premiere backers have bestirred. themselves and lured out more stars than ever. But if the premieres fade into memories of the Hollywood that was, a gaudier Hollywood, they will not be alone on their journey out. The economy wave is hitting: at showy, expensive automobiles, too, whereas once no stellar equipage was complete without a couple of motors from abroad. A writer reports that his boss actually offered to trade him a high-powered limousine for his modest coupe. The offer was re- N c‘an'l afford,” the writer said, “to buy a gallon of gas every time I shift gears!” Neither, it appeared, could the executive. —_————— Effective May 2, coal will be sold for CASH ONLY.
