Cukor came from the stage a decade or so ago with a repu- tation for kngwing how. to direct women. Women alone, and women in job lots, were all the same to him. In recent months \e has more than justified his name, for he has come un- seathed through the temperamental pot-pourri that made up the «ast of “The Women,” and he has piloted Joan Crawford and a sredominantly femade cast through “Susan and God” without injury to any and with much benefit to all, including himself. True, he's now but a shadow of his former self, but that's due to rigid diet, not to ducking tempestuously hurled missiles. Cukor's next job is “Philadelphia Story.” And hat means hi® next problem is Katharine Hepburn, who used the stage play to confound her movie critics and charm even that small section’ of Broadway which had seen her earlier stage debacle in “The' Lake.” Miss Hepburn came along with the play and was tossed with it in the direction of Cukor. I gather that he reached out for the assignment. Miss Hepburn is an old story, and an old friend, and no problem at all to' Cukor. “Philadelphia Story” will be his fifth picture with Hepburn. It was he who introduced her to film in “Bill of Divorcement”; he who made her biggest sucdcess, “Little Women;” one of her | PERCY’S CAFE OPEN ALL NIGHT ST()P at PERCY’S ANY TIME for Dinners or Light Lunches that all Juseau is talking about. gg OUR E?UN TAINT worst flops, “Sylvia Scarlett,” _for which -both had - high hepes, and her-latest, “Holiday.” “I never had the qhghtest difficulty ‘with her,” he says, “and I'm not saying that to spread ‘soft soap.

Floyd Fagerson, concrete man, and Gail Osborne, night clerk at the Baranof, had tifat experience | yesterday and nearly lived the tale of Jonah. Taking movies of two forty-foot | humpback whales near Tee Harbor yesterday afternoon, Fagerson turn-| ed the bow of his little boat in pursuit and got several good pic- tures at a range of fifty feet or| less, Suddenly the whales sounded and Fagerson estimated where . they would come up. Hurrying to the spot he had calculated on, he and Oshorne watched gxpectantly for the beasts to broach. Suddenly the boat lifted under them, the little outboard motor was knocked half from .its fastenings, and Qsborne, pointing vertically, cried “There he is, there he is!” Fagerson, too busy trying to hang| on to.the hoat and a motor spin- ning wildly half out of water, didn't have a hand avajlable to get a movie, but the whale lay snugly beside them in the bright sunshine, black of hl@e \a.nd ponderously quiet. Tt ‘was with some relief, both men ladmitted, that the whale didn’t | blow and didn’t sound, but only sub- | sided easily into the . depths. “Weé could have stepped right "aboard,” Osborne declared, mopping his brow. And Fagerson can prove mast of the story with ;colored. mpvies L e MRS. EATON RETURNING HOME AFTER VISIT HERE | Mrs. E, J.

Jr ARFT LOCKWOOD J (F‘L f+ - Montagu Love ANK LLOYD "RULERS 0F SEA" IS AT (OLISEUM AS MAIN ATTRACTION When “Rulers of, the Sea” was presented ta local audiences for the first time Sunday at toe Coliseum moviegoers Wwitnessed a stirring motion picture, heroically conceived yet produced in believ- able, human fashion by that mas- | ter Producer-Director, Frank Lloyd. Concerned with the dreams and struggles of men who believed that the Atlantic could be conquered by ships powered with steam, Lloyd's new picture caps his career and comes to the screen as his greatest picture for many valid and indisputable reasons. His hand- ling of scenes on board ship, in which a sailor falls to death from a yardarm while trying to furl a sail in a gale, his handling of a threatened mutiny at sea, his pic- turing of the shy love of a young mariner for a spirited girl, dis- tinguish the picture, mark it in- delibly as the work of Frank Lloyd. “Rulers of the Sea” thunders underway with the sailing ship Falcon bound out of New York for Greenock, Scotland, in 1836. Fairbanks, young mate of the ship, is ordered by the captain to send the men up to take in sail despite the fact that the ship is straining under full canvas in a gale. One man falls from a yardarm, and is killed. When the ship reaches Greenock, Fairbanks resigns, re- senting the fact that the captain had no consideration for the sea- men, driving the ship so that the ship would arrive in port on time, and shippers would be satisfied.
