Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbis Coom July 14.—Tt's first fiasco that nobody cared to release it at the old Unive as one of a number of moppets. HOLLYWOOD, C: lywood known to very few in Hol- but Temple screen aj Shirley earance was such a She made it sal lot, not as the star but merely The little picture, a short sub- lay on the shelf for years and may be there still The new Universal now has its own potential Shirley, and her director is, by coincidence, the same Charles Lamont who steered Temple through her first successful camera chores—the Baby Bur- lesks. Sandy Henville, 16 months old now, has had a more dis- tinguished and ballyhooed launching to stardom than was Shirley’s lot 5 Lamont undertook the Baby Burlesks and broadcast a call for juvenile talent. Among the hundreds who came, each with a mama, was Shirley.” The hundreds were weeded to scores, the scores to a dozen or so of the most appealing—among them Shirley. For three weeks Lamont coached the lot in talking, walking, dancing—and finally the burlesque of “What Price Glory?” was released, with Shirley as Charmaine—and charming. Two Burlesks later Lamont was sure something should be done about Shirley. He enlisted Gene Mann, an agent, to “peddle” the child among the major studios. Mann got one turn-down after another, nobody being interested in “another kid actor,” until the old Fox company saw the light and took a chance on her. Mann can tell amusing stories about his interviews with the ject, o “Come and Get It Has a Special Meaning . . Tasty food, efficient service and an atmosphere truly home-like sound - the old call of “Come and Get It” . . . | “PERCY’S | L studio bigwigs. self was, at first, He doesn’t tell (naturally) how skeptical he him- of “another kid actor.” Sandy Henville, daughter of milkman Roy Henville, lost no time in grabbing stardom. Sandy’s mother had read of the search for an infant to play with Bing Crosby in “East Side of Heaven,” and one of Daddy Roy’s customers was Charles Previn, the U's musical director. Roy left a photo with Previn's milk one morning, and Previn showed it to Director David Butler who was instantly smitten. Sandy was cast, in a boy’'s role, and there was a flurry of excitement when Sandy was discovered to be an abbreviation of Sandra. Nobody had bothered to ask, but Butler didn’t care by then. Sandy, for picture purposes, is still a boy and a full fledged star in “Unexpected Father.” Lamont is director of the film—but actually Sandy’s cuteness (her chief asset is a big-eyed grin and enthusiastically grasping fingers) is evoked by practically everybody on the set. Allowed on the stage by law only four hours a day, Sandy’s appearance i under the lights is preceded by a dmthly hush, Lamont, and Mischa Auer (Sandy's co-star), and Dennis O'Keefe, Shirley Ress, Anne Nagel, Joy Hodges and Sandy's mother, the hairdresser and the assistant director, Gil Valle—in short, everybody—concentrates on the golden mite, and the baby talk is very, very silly. The script, in its closing scene, had this plaintive note: “At this point Sandy (please God!) takes a step.” Sandy, please God, is taking steps, having learned to walk as well as gurgle a few words during production.

Irene Dunne Though McLaglen's portrait of Marty is the hlight of the film it is not just a solo triumph.
