There are two reasons for the backstage gossip: First, in the face of open de- | mands that the party revamp its Yet he didn’t know they were one and the same — bis wife! JOSEPH M.

Second, there was evidence of dissatisfaction among some House Republicans in the last Congress over Snell's type of leadership. The muttering was confined to the ;cloak-rooms ‘however, and no move to oust him ever was made on the floor. | | | HOUSE REACTION POSSIBLE | | House observers admit the pos- | sibility of the present division and |discord in the party as a whole, finding a reaction in the House.

Century: 'picture Theatre alsa' marks the first time | the ' opportunity of portraying two | distinctly differeni characters in one picture. From start to nnisn, “Moulin Rouge” deals with the highly dramatic and entertaining episodes | which develop from her adoptipn of |a disguise and a French accent, involving the disbelieving husband in situations that bring him peril- ously near the danger line leading to the divorce court. Franchot Tone plays Connie's husband. | The second male lead 1s played by Tullio Carminati, who will be |remembered for his outstanding !success in “Strictly Dishonorabie’ and “Music in the Air.” Much of the droll comedy falls to the role of Mrs. Morris, plaved |by Helen Westley, considered one of the American stage. Miss West- ley is one of the founders of the New York Theatre Cuild and is frequently cast in its productions. She accepted this, her first film role in a spirit of adventure, large- ly because she and Franchot Tone |are old friends, and she has |known Miss Bennett since the lat- was a child. “Moulin Rouge” is a presentation |of Joseph M. Schenck and Darryl F. Zanuck and is released through | United Artists.

Playing the starring role him- self, as well as directing the picture, Sherman, together with the execu tive staff of the Tiffany Studios, made tests of the majority of available actors and actresses in Hollywood before they settled on the final cast of “False Faces,” a cast which includes approximately twenty-five important motion pic- ture names. With Peggy Shannon, Lila Lee and Geneva Mitchell playing the | leading feminine roles opposite Sherman, the supporting roles are handled by Berton Churchill, Os- car Apfel, David Landau, Forrest Stanley, Harold Waldridge, Purnel! Prat, Edward Martindel, Nance O'Neil, Olive Tell, Joyce Compton, Miriam Seegar, Barbara Bedford and a score of | others of equal importance. “False- Faces,” a gripping, tensely interesting story of an unscrupu- lous plastic surgeon, is from the vivid pen of Kubec Glasmon, of | “Public Enemy” fame, and is a KBS production. consular service in Maracaibo, Venezuela, but soon gave that up | to do exploration work for an Am- ‘erlca.n oil company in the Cordel- !leras. ] Then he went to Mexico where | of Connecticut from the position of | bushy hair, rarely is mentioned in |for a time he was in charge of a floor leader and took over the job himself.
