CONNORS MOTOR ‘CONPANY e Hollywood Sights 4nd Sounds } By Robbin Coons. HOLLLYWOOD, June 11.—Cuts from the newsreel: The Ritz Brothers, after squabbles at the U, have settled on “Argentine Nights,” in which the Andrews Sisters of disc, air and stage note will be their threesome. . . . Hollywood is launched on that South American way with this and with “Down Argentine W in which the film inseparables, Faye and Ameche, co-star. ast also has Carmen Miranda, the South American Way LY 5 LUBRICATION Girl Few knew it, but Anna Sten doesn't live in that very modern- istic beach house any more. Sold it, built another, a French provincial, in Brentwood. . . . The Fredric Marches, who built an elaborate Beverly Hills hovel before March got the stage yen, likewise have sold, are living in a smaller hut. ... Makes Broad way ocmmuting simpler, he says. . . . George Abbott, tall, gray, distinguished, in town for screen translation of his “Too Many Girls,” in time for final scenes of his “Boys from Syracuse.” . Kay Kyser returned for a five- week stint at Catalina Island, talkng over his next picture with David Butler, director of his first. . . . This time they won't make a story about an orchestra leader who hasn't a story for his first picture. . . . Says Butler: “We have a few ideas, but nothing PERCY’S CAFE OPEN ALL NIGHT s b & 48 STflP at PERCY’S ANY, TIME for Dinners ‘or Light Lunches that all Juneau is talking about. TRY OUR FOUN TAIN.

Says Kay: “We've heard we have Dorothy Lamour as’ tite leading lady—and several other leading ladies—but it’s the first we've heard of it. . . .” Will it be Ginny Simms, the Kyser band’s warbler, as it wus in the first picture? “That's right—you're right!” says Kay. y With the community full of honoarry mayors, fire chiefs and such, Hollywood has a real, bona fide city official. . . . Roy Sea- wright, the camera genie who made the dinosaurs tick in “1,000,000 B. C.” and supplied the “Topper” and “Turnabout” illusions, was elected to city council in his home town of Hermosa Beach—on a “reform” platform Danielle Darrieux Ls in‘town—but only in' a French movie. . It's been a long time since a Harold Bell Wright novel was screened. . . . Now it's to be “The Shepherd of the Hills,” with Bob Preston and that busier-and-busier Betty Field. . . DeMille finished “Northwest Mounted Police” ahead of sched- ule, but it’s doubtful that his next will be “Queen of Queens,” the story of the Virgin Mary, as previously announced. He would have to have an undivorced star in the title role, and Madeleine Carroll, who for technical beauty would be his first chofce, wouldn't qualify in that respect. Ingrid Bergman, another contender, prob- ably couldn't be borrowed. . . . D. Lamour and other stars are in for a roasting in the forth- coming Allan Jones-Susanna Foster musical. . . . Susanna is pre- paring several “imitations” of the Lamour style of song. Paulette Goddard is planning an eastern trip—to Denms M.ul —to play the lead in a “nnw hat” hrodnction of “Our Betters.” Tt'N be some time in July. .

GEORGE AP Feature Service Writer Z | WASHINGTON, — Republican | presidential lightning may strike | a long shot at the Philadelphia | convention, June 24, | Although political bookmakers give Dewey, Taft and Vandenberg preferred listing in the race for standard-bearing honors, G.O.P. dark horse chances are by far the best in 20 years, The scramble is the first real | contest since the Frank Lowden- | | Leonard Wood deadlock in 1920 | produced Warren Harding as a | surprise nominee. Coolidge in 1924; | Hoover, in 1928 and 1932, and Lan- don, in 1936, virtually had won before the conventions opened. Many Walks of Life Among the present group of so- called lesser contenders and dark | horses are a former President, Her- | bert Hoover; a Supreme Court Justice, Owen J. Roberts; two busi- ness men, Utility Chieftain Wen- dell Willkie and Newspaper Pub- lisher Frank E. Gannett; two Sen- ators, Charles L. McNary and H. Styles Bridges; and Republican House Leader Joseph A. Martin Jr. Gannett and Bridges have made extensive campaigns for the nom- ination and Willkie is a “recep- tive"” candidate and active speaker. Hoover has said he wasn't a candi- IT'S THEBEST YEAR IN | - 2DECADES FOR A LONG SHOTTO FINISH ONTOP date for any office, but he has a substantial following. Associate| Justice Roberts has stated he has| no political ambitions. Senator Mc- | Nary, Oregon’s favorite son, hasn't| taken his possibilities seriously and Representative Martin of Massa- chusetts merely chuckles at ‘men- tion of his name. Here's a brief appraisal by neutral observers of | the assets and liabilities of these' dark horses: WENDELL WILLKIE — Some| would put him in to expand the “Big Three” into a “Big Four.” He| has made rapid ‘gains in prefemnce‘I polls, Combines punch, home-spun logic and wit in speeches. . . . Has administrative ability and wide knowledge, . . . Credited with lib-| eral tendencies. As head of billion! dollar ' holding company, Willkie| would be open to campaign fire as a “Wall streeter.” Lacks delegate strength, was a Democrat unm' few years ago. Most “Willkie for| President” talk is in Pullman cars, little in the day coaches. HERBERT HOOVER—Rated high in" qualifications because he ha been President and because of his‘ knowledge of foreign affairs. Has improved considerably as a political | speaker since 1932, The severity of his defeat eight years ago still| hangs over his vote-winning abil- ity. FRANK E. GANNETT — Won| political spotlight when, as organ-| izer of the National Committee to Uphold Constitutional Govern- ment, he helped defeat President Roosevelt’s plan to enlarge the Su-| preme Court. Supporters cite his record as a successful publisher | with “sound social welfare out-| look.” Has ‘“poor-boy-makes-good” background, traditional Americani political asset. Is a comparative newcomer in national political field. | JUSTICE ROBERTS — Talk of the Pennsylvania jurist as a nom- inee started before the 1936 cam- paign and still "goes on although he stated last summer he was “wholly unavailable.” .
