But there was an also-ran named Monetta Darnell, and RKO, which had first call on the contestants, didn’t sign her. Monetta, when RKO finally said no and didn’t bother about its option on her, was free to sign elsewhere. Monetta was taken immediately by 20th Century-Fox which liked her looks. They put her into the leading feminine role in a picture nobodv expected to be much—“Elsa Maxwell's Hotel for Women.” And they got from it, probably more to their surprise than anybody else’s— a new star: rechristened Linda, the Darnell girl is amazing, the way she carries off that first screen role, the way she photo- graphs as the prettiest bit of femininity to face the cameras since H Last year; two canneries operat- edy Lamary. ed and the total fall pack amount- ed to 27,409 cas In 1937, however, six canneries packed during the fall seascn and the output amounted to more than 75,000 cases.
