HOLLYWOQOD; Cal., Feb 27.—Maybe we don’t go to the right places, but it seems a long time since we've heard one of those strum-boxes so popular in the twenties — the ukulele, or “uke.” Playing some old records the other eve, we came across one called “Singing in the Rain,” sung by one Ukulele Ike, who did the same in the early filmusical called “Hollywood Revue of 1929 It was heavy on the “uke,” and we got to wondering what's happened. Well, Ukulele Ike is still around, but his ukes are laid away. Cliff Edwards, who once made the strum-boxes and his curious voice earn him plenty, doesnt play ’em *any more — not much, and not often. About once, he says, in four or five pictures. The last time was in “Flowing Gold,” but even there Ukulele Tke wasn't featured. It was Edwards, the comic. “Theyre mostly memories, those boxes,” says CIliff. changed man.

Arlen, the star, operates a flying school at :the-Metropolitan airport out in the valley — where many another aviation picture, including “Hell’s Angels,” has headquartered. He can arrange shooting time free from overhead interference. You'll have to look sharp, but you can see a movie star play- ing extra in one scene of “One Nigh in Lisbon.” As star, Made- leine Carroll plays a chauffeur to Edmund Gwenn, a British diplomat, driving him up to a unidentified number on Downing Street in London. Then there’s a close-up of Gwenn in the back seat — with an atmosphere crowd in the back ground, passing by. “T walked down this street in the first picture I ever made,” shhe said.
