The man who has plundered your SHOW PLACE OF JUNEAU TONIGHT senses now wrings Your heart! Directed by ANATOLE LITVAK RXO-PADIO PICTURE SHORT Produced by ALFRED LEWIS from the novel, "' L'Equipage,” by Joseph Kessel. Publiked bk Librairie Gallimard. Mickey's Magician—Hollywood Party—Universal News Billy Bletcher Sells 1 Voice; —That Sttll Lea ves H im 999 By ROBBIN COONS HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Nov. 29 The man with a thousand voices has just signed away one of them. For 15 years—in vaudeville, on the air, in pictures—Billy Bletcher has been in show business. His weird ability to mimic anybody or anything practically stole away his own identity. He found himself beccming a “voice”—or many voices. Once on the air, he sn}.bsu- tuted for a fa- mous comcdmn and hslcnsrs never knew the difierence. When Hollywood’s ani- talk, for | to spoke § began Billy cally, he has been pig, frog, % dog, rabbit, cat, ANNABELLA mouse, horse, practically all the creatures of the animated screen. In spare time he has played parts in feature pic- tures, sung on the air. His tenor is trained for music, too. Metro was launching a new se- ries of talking cartoons. “The tain and the Kids.” For it, BILL- cher was signed to a contract. He will speak for the Captain—and he cannot use that voice for any other purpose. But he is still free to use the other 999 voices in his repertory. He calls it the ideal contract. Perfect Make-Up Annabelle from France spent two days, soon after arrival at 20th Century Fox, undergoing the usua Hollywood routine of experimental hair-dress and make-up. Each of the experiments required from one to two hours to apply. “May I have just one test of my- self as I like to look?” she asked. Request granted, she spent 15 minutes with comb and her own vanity case, and stepped before the camera. Next day, when Production Chief Darryl Zanuck saw the tests, had the film stopped on a certain frame. “That's the makeup,” he said. “It’s perfect.” It was—ofcourse Annabella’s own. She'll use it in “Jean’ oppo- site William Powell. Auto Graphs Sally Eilers was “abudcted” the| other morning. Emerging from her home, she was; surrounded by a gang of boys, ages 14 to 17, and ushered solemnly to the curb. There stood a worn old vehicle, once an automobile. “Your autograph, please,” com- manded the gang leader, offering a brush dipped freshly in paint. Sally effected her ransom pay- nient smilingly. Her name went on the car amidst others which kept it good company; Lombard, Gable, Richard Dix, etc. The youthful leader had a list of other names. He showed it to Sally explaining: “We paid $35 for this old bus. When we get all these autographs on it, we can sell it for $175.” Joyous item from the “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm” act relates Mrs. Temple's pleasure that Shirleys curls will be on view through most of the picture, instead of hidden in pigtails. Quote: “I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have that little head of hair to curl every day!” Shi Enthusiasts ' Find Snow Muggy | Devotees of the hickory slab found skiing on Spaulding’s Trail| “not so hot” yesterday.

Only 21 years old, he is exceptionally strong, has stamina, shakes off the effects of a punch well, and rallies best when he has been stung by an |opponent. OPEN Under the Management of MRS. H. L.
