Well, they'll round it up for you. Did I tell you what happened to mine? Yeah, found it a while ago. That bag the airline gives you for overnight stuff. Mine never shown in Fort Worth. Checked everywhere, no soap. Up t'the hotel room in Dallas a while ago the airline agent comes in and I tell him about it, and Ed Schallert of the L.

Amon Carter of Fort Worth, “where the West begins,” says Dallas is “where the East peters out” but that's the way it goes. Oere in Dallas, where they've more people than Fort Worth, they pretend not to notice the “feud” — much. Maater of fact, Dailas does seem a bit more conservtaive than its sister towns — but probably that’s because we saw Fort Worth a-whooping for “The premiere and Dallas for the “second pre- miere. Hold on tight, we're off, we're up. There goes Bob Hope, bee- lining it for his berth and some sleep — and does he need it!

That Gary Cooper’s his own best endorse- ment. Did’ja see him lead the Conga at that charity ball last night? Say, that hotel in Fort Worth had something — giving each of us a boy to look out for us. Mine, named Fred, musta come straight from “Gone With the Wind.” What's life going to be like without a valet now? Saw liitle Doris Davenport dead on her feet at the Varsity Club party this afternoon, but she wasn't giving up. She was bright as any of 'em at the premiere, and I bet she signed as many autographs as the next one. She never did see the picture. Gotta give a hand to Walter Brennan, too — they love that boy, don't they? And Edward Arnold . Say, something's funny. Sam Goldwyn's been making im- promptu talks for two days and he hasn’t pulled a Goldwynism, not one. Bet Sam never did pull a Goldwynism. Fact is, T bet Sam’s work on this junket has done more to blot out the cari- catures of movie produces than all the words you could wflte about 'em. And when Sam and Bob Hopeg ot down on ‘the floot, on the premiere stage, and wrestled for the mierophone man, it was funny. Great act. Maybe Sam ought to be in pictures. Say, d'Ye suppose Amon Carter would give out with his recipe for those rancho beans? I'm gonna quit eating — just gonna spend the rest of my life dreaming about those BEANS. . . .

Finally, when his useless werk is completed and he is almost crazed by the realization of | the broken lives that lie in shreds about him, the merciful curtain of | white lies and conventionality again | cleoks the characters and the truth| of the anclent adage is proved No Hero-Heroine Strictly speaking, there is neither hero nor heroine, but Frances Wor- obee, who formerly played in Bel- asco productions on Broadway, car-| ries the leading feminine role. Even | in bleak, business-like rehearsals, she clutches the heart strings of| the other players and what she will | do to an audience in more faorable | conditions, can readily be imagined. | It Is safe to say that the memory | of her hauntingly beautiful voice wil |linger long after the rest of th play is forgotten. Other Characters | Edith Danielsen, who formerly played for several years with a stock company will have the role of the straying wife. She has de- lighted audiences in the past and will do so again. Elaine Housel, as “Betty,” another spoiled young wife, holds the key to the difficult sit- uation. During a year spent re- |cently in a southern university, Mies | Housel was elected to membership | in a Mummer’s Club and her in- terpretation of the role shows why |she attained that honor. Bess Winn, |who has appeared in numerous local dramas, will fill the role of| |the successful authoress, secretly suspicious and prying, but stand- |ing in awe of her more worldly com- | panions. | the NE A COLISEUM Juneaw’s Greatest Show Value Last 'l'u Tolik! A Poromouns Picture sarring Bob Hove - Paviette Goddard | ALSO MUSICAL CARTOON—NEWS PAULETTE GODDARD, BOB HOPE STAR IN MYSTERY AT COLISEUM Despite anything ‘Bob Hope, at his gagging best, can do about it, lovely Paulette Goddard falls into the clutches of “The Cat,” murder- ous, claw-handed creature, in the ! course of Paramount’s great new mystery-comedy, “The Cat and the Canary,” which ends tonight at the Coliseum Theatre. The events leading up to Miss Goddard's encounter with “The Cat” include the arrival of seven persons at a haunted, spooky man- ion in the Louisiana bayous to ear the reading at midnight of will of the deceased owner. Following in quick succession are the dimming of lights, whining noises, the tolling of seven mys- terious bells, and the announce- ment by the deceased’s housekeep- er that one of them must die be- fore morning. As she predicts, one does die—murdered by “The Cat!"
