When she returned to the camp last month, after a trip to eastern United States, she found everything the same except that she “had 19 dogs instead of a dozen.” Today, Mary was conferring with movie producer Norman Dawn over the projected filming of “Golden River,” which picture will be film- ed for ‘the greater part around her Jlodge—and which, of ‘course, Mury Joyee will play a large part in. Mary Joyce, Mrs. Norman Dawn, Mrs. Bob Webster, (Patsy Lee), and Dawn’s son ‘Forrest, are going up to the Lodge today or-tomorrow. Bob Webster, “sourdough” of the 1ilm, well-bewiskered now, is going out with Lou McFerrin aboard the latter's gasboat to attempt to pro- cure two cub bears for the film.
