He was an enthusiastic supporter of the politi- cal concepts of Woodrow Wilson. Upon his return to Germany in 1917 the Foreign Office desired him to give his views before the gen- eral staff of the army, but General Ludendorff declined to receive him on the grounds that he was too “red.” Count von Bernstorff began his career in America auspiciously, being materially aided by the fact that his wife was an American. In the course of time he received hon- orary degrees from several Ameri- can universities and there demand for him as a public speaker. The latter fact became irksome to e e e LA LOCAL 514 !

Tem- udv, Hollywood Sights And Sounds ~—eeeeBy Robbin Coons HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Oct. 7.—Peace, it's wonderful The peace of Dietrich, Mar-lay-nah the happy, the gay, the working girl Alter a year and a half, she’s making another picture, She's wearing her honey-gold hafr curled and frizzly as well as cov- ered with its usual gold dust for sheen. She's wearing a short, spangled pale green frock, with spangles in her hair, spangles on her slippers. She’s Frenchy, the dance hall queen with the heart of gold. At least it turns out to be a heart' of gold, if they stick to the story outline they have for “Destry Rides Again.” Marlene isn't the girl she used to be. If she was‘very happy on the sets at other places, she didn't show it. She was the aloof one. But a year and a half on the sidelines, a trip to France to make a movie that wasn't made, a chance at a role that’s like her first hit in “The Blue Angel"—these have changed her. Or it might be that she's showing appreciation for her new American citizenship, for the chance to be in it all over here and away from it all over there. Vernon Keys, the assistant director to George Marshall, wears a fancy whistle around his neck. On its face is a tiny watch, and engraved on the reverse, “I come.” Gift from Mar-lay-nah, Gift with a chuckle in it. When Vernon blows Mar-lay-nah comes running. This new Dietrich is laboring on a set that is more than vaguely familiar. It is a saloon and dance hall of the wild west of the 1880's. It has the inevitable long bar (presided over this >, s HEICOME! charming hostessess give thoughtful guests who bring gifts of delicious Van Duyn Candies. Little NOW AT Thust come" gueste. Try fus Percy’s FRESH fl ” (/] exclusivel a ” C”()Czrfifl y VAN DUYN CHOCOLATE SHOPS time by Billy Gilbert, the rotund sneezer), the usual abbreviated stage, on which Mar-lay-nah will throat through some western vippee tunes, and the customary games of chance. Almost equally inevitable is Brian Donlevy, in the role of the side-burned, suave guy with the heart of brass. (This role is getting to be a habit with Brian—bet he could play it in his sleep.) But there's one thing different: a fellow named James Stew- art. For more than a year this picture has been on the Stewart schedule. Now that he's making it, his box-office value is sure to have been stepped up by the yet unreleased “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,” the Frank Capra film. * A quieter, less puenacious cowboy hero you couldn’t imagine. The lad of the underslung lip and bewildered yokel air is going to be the most distinctive western hero of the films, who fights with words and calms things down, when possible, by appeals But when he gets aroused, wow! (With Stewart in the role, the thought occurred that “Destry Rides Again”, might be an attempt to satirize the familiar rootin-tootin theme, but Director Marshall says no it's going to be played straight.) Joe Pasternak, the produs when asked how Dietrich was persuaded to play in a western, says: “Why, she WANTED the part!” But there’s one thing mysterious about this picture, for all that. A careful reading of the synopsis reveals that Stewart, who does the riding, is tagged Tom Blake—and nowhere in action appears a character named Destry. Destry, it seems rode again— but right out of the screenplay. e ettt 52855 I s b st
