Miss Sullavan, reckoned among the stars who will advance in the cinema this year, is given to sud- den departures that sometimes keep her studio guessing. Between pic- tures her time is her own, and so there’s no complaint on that score. She thinks nothing of a flight day hop to San Francisco, just for a ride, or a quick aerial journey she is due back for a picture on Saturday. It's wanderlust—and perhaps, as her confidants herg say, a dislike for Hollywood or a vigarous prefer- ence for New York, which amounts to the same thing. Her loyalty to the stage is protected by contract. CAMERA ANGLES The notable triple-play which bloughl Blossom.

It was that old problem of cam- |era angles that caused Corinne to {give up the part opposite Otto |Kfuger and laok elsewhere for a | comeback vehicle. One of the lovelier silent screen stars, Corinne never kept it secret that certain aengles favored her more than others—which is true| of most stars.

You gather as much from May's re- marks. “It is often difficult,” he says, “for a butler to keep a straight face, especially if he is employed in a newly-rich home.
