A magazine ran a page of pictures of notable men and Mitchell was there. He says he was amazed—“as amazed as the maga- zine readers probably were.” In 1928 he wrote “Little Accident” and the literary world “unearthed” him as a coming genius. In 1929 he was discovered as a great stage director, and shortly after that the movies discovered him-——as a scenarist They bought his play, “Cloudy with Showers,” and took him to Hollywood with it but didn't make the picture . After 10 months he went back to New York and was discovered again as a stage director. So he came to Hollywood to act in “Lost Heaven” and has been here since. He's discovered for keeps, this time — since “Stagecoach,” “Swiss Family Robinson,” “Three Cheers for the Irish,” and “Our Town.” He is one of the most-in-demand actors in town. Shaw.

EIINIIBRS MOTOR Awaiting discoverey on the Warner lot is an actress to fit the role of “Tugboat Annie.” Funny thing about “Tugboat Annie.” Norman Reilly Raine, he cerator, once knew a woman tugboat owner and wanted to write a story about her. In life, however, the woman was too gentle, lacked the robut color Raine figured he needed. Then he chanced to see Garbo in “Annie Christie,” the picture in which the late Marie Dressler played. So Raine modeled “An- _.nie”on the Dressler pattern, and so successfully that the magzazine ““iftustrator sketched a Dressier-ish Annie, and the movies; when - they bought the screen rights, bought them for Marie Dressler.
