STARTS TONIGHT | | with JUNE TRAVIS LUCILLE BALL Stupor Visor—Pathe News What Do You Think SHORT Town Jailer Angus McSween at Glace Bay, N.

Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. 4—In a town that bristles with con- flicting ambitions, where that more or less “divine discontent” is a staple crop, I've found a man who is satisfied . . . a man who doesn’t want to change his life, who doesn’'t want to go on to bigger and higher places. And that, friends, is News. His name is Arthur Treacher. You know him as a movie butler, mainly. (And he doesn’t even care to change that, although buttling is generally regarded as one of the deadlier forms of screen-typing.) You know him as a comedian, too, for Treacher's butlers are teddibly British, Treacher being the same, although l I do believe his throat is clearing a bit lately in the California climate. b Not long ago the bosses called the elongated Arthur in for an 5 assignment, and they were flushed with apologies for the dastardly humiliation they w about to inflict. They felt awful about it 3 asking their Mr. Treacher to take a one-day’s role in a Jane ‘Withers' picture. When they finally let him in on the secret, their Mr. Treacher was not at all dismayed. “Why,” he said cheer- fully, “you’re paying me, ah’'nt you” And he’'d have done the part if it had been but five minutes’ work. He likes his weekly pay check, and—alas!—he cherishes no dreams of aht. o It was not always thus. When our Mr. T was a chorus boy, in ye merrie Englande, he had a dream. Ah, he thought, if he . . . . . —— outside the movies. A radio contract, a stage show, a triumphant personal appearance tour. ¥ Our Arthur, wide and happy, looks on from the safety of his content. He has had enough of the stage, where he learned his i tricks. He “guests” on the air, about once a year, and that is all “The face, the figger were not so designed. I am resigned.” Other players, high and low, scheme and dream of conquests could but be like that bloomin' chap who starred in the revues, that debonair Beau Brummel for whose smiles the London debs ° = on a nippy evening==-- there's one sure way to get warmed up, inside you and out, drop into fought! “But it was not so written,” the dreamer philosophised sadly.

If it is not just right, they take it again, If Mr. Zanuck thinks a re-take will bring out just the shadings he wants, I am recalled and there, in the peaceful sanc- tuary of the sound stage, it is done again—and again if necessary.” Treacher, topped by a beautiful finger wave, was “doing it for retakes on Miss Shirley Temple's “Little Princess.”) (Mr. again” Mr. Treacher has no desire to return to England, not when he has a home at Encino, not when for $16 a month he can enjoy the privileges of four or five golf and athletic clubs, not when life is rosy and the goose hangs high.

I should pick out a couple of this town’s funniest men, like Tom Dugan, and I should let them do the work. Treacher would merely stand there—for ten minutes, no. more— and in that manner, because Tom Dugan would be funny, no one would suspect how unfunny Treacher is—and Treacher would be a triumphant success. Ah, yes, that would be no risk!” Stage? ®|MISTAKEN IDENTITY | TR A Joe Penner, Lucille Ball | portant bank secrets to a trio of | ner is quickly suspected of the crime. \pmducuon by Robert Sisk for RKO | W.
