SHATTUCK AGENCY PHONE 249 Office———New York Life l Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbia Cooms HOLLYWOOD, Cal., April 17.—The Blackfeet Indians brought to town from Montana for Shirley Temple's “Susannah of the Mounties” are home again, but they have left their mark on film- land in story if not in song. The venerable Little Blaze, a redskin had never strayed far from the reservation until his introduction to Hollywood, carries with him memories of encounters with such appurtenances' of ‘“civilization” as swinging . doors, careless and speedy automobiles, and other annoyances. At first day's end he let it be known through Big Beaver, the interpreter, that he was very tired. “He says,” announced Big Beaver, “all day at him. Make him more tired than da ong hunt.” Pat Fitzgerald, unit mar of the production, has his own story to tell of Bull Plume, “medicine man” of the gentleman of 65 who things jump out the with whom he struck up a friendship during the visit. Pat was explaining to Bull Plume that one of a unit ager's chief worries is the weather, which he must predict ac- curately so that shooting on location can proceed on schedule. group, man- With “Susannah” going on location the next suggested he might “make medicine” for a sunny day. gerald was duly grateful. But next day a small gale was blowing—enough to make it difficult to hold down the set—when they went to work. Fitz- gerald looked at Bull Plume interrogatively. un shine,” said Bull Plume with dignity. spirits to stop wind.” At least that's how Pat tells it. . . . day, Bull Plume and Fitz- “Indian not ask Virginia Field is wearing a large engagement ring given her P e e PERCY’S “sniffertest®®—No.1... how's your “sniffer” today?

The doubles duty ring (supplied by Metro) is making its appearance also in the Universal picture, wHich shows a nice comradely spirit between the studios, or something. Miss Field, a good deal preftier and more streamlined than when she made her first movie (“Lloyds of London”), is shuttling the 25-odd miles between the two studios daily, finishing one pic- ture and starting the other simultancously. That's how hard she's working when she might be getting ready, if it weren't for pic- tures, to be presented at the royal court in England,-—formally, with feather in her hair. “But as a friend of mine says,” she sighs, “you can't eat feathers.” In “Maiden Voyage” also are Reginald Owen and Gene Lock- hart, who go through their acting chores with customary zest but immediately a scene is over repair to the sidelines—and a checker board. The checker feud between the two began several months ago at Paramount, continued through “A Christmas Carol,” and shows no sign of letting up. I doubt if Hobart Cavanaugh could give you, off-hand, the names of three Hollywood designers, but he still has 22 costume changes in “Rose of Washington Square.” Each takes one minute, —requires him merely to put off one necktie, put on another. And this goes on through 20 years of cinematic time, the various tie styles keeping him, for film purposes, in the mode! s e 5 R e e B e AT 230 | i ———————— The Show Place of Juneau | | ’ * ANTOINETTE” FEATURED NOW Norma Shearer, Tyrone Power eta or h The the told L gir be to'a moronic husband le su-| gklahoma.

It pays the wages of over 11,000 local workers and fishermen. Its purchases of coal, lumber, wire, many Alaska products help other industries to meet their payrolls. Its territorial tax payments help to provide salaries for Alaska’s school seachers and government officials.
