The war, oddly, may be the cause for the rush to youth, and for two reasons. First, there’s the war-born desire for light, sweet stuff in the films, and youth supplies the demand. Second, the war and its direct efféct on the studios’ foreign markets makes the culture of “new blood” of vital interestt. With lessened revenues the lots will find it harder to meet the “fortune a picture” demands of the top names. With upcoming youngsters in reserve (at comparatively small salaries) they can beat down.the de- mands or, failing this, can thrust the newcomers upward to take the choice spots. The trend is especially noticeable at 20th Century-Fox, where Zanuck's oldest feminine star, Alice Faye, is 22. Zanuck has 4 been giving newcomers unusual opportunities right along, and has red in handsomely already on Linda Darnell, stands to win n on Mary Beth Hughes. Lynne Roberts (who was Mary PERCY’S CAFE OPEN ALL NIGHT sTOoP at PERCY’'S ANY TIME for Dinners. or Light Lunches that all Juneau is talking : t. . TRY.

And Betty Grable, rejected by Paramount but a quick come-back after a Broadway click, is showered with star- ring opportunities — first in Alice Faye's role in “Down Ar- gentina Way,” which Alice left to get a restt, then in the Irving Berlin musical, “Say It With Music.” The lot also has ‘Gene Tierney, only 20, but already big-time because she arrived via a Broadway hit in “The Male Animal.” So “Youth Will Be Served,” which is a Jane Withers mavie title, is going to be more than that.
