Every visitor to “Tobaccoland” |finds a tour through these factories |an adventure in American manufac- | turing ingeunity, and he never for- gets the bright golden color and rich fragrance of the newly-opened hogshead of tobacco fresh from their long mellowing in storage. | “Tobaccoland, US.A." is also the | story of a typical Southern tobacco- growing family, showing how the family’s life revolves around the progress of the tobacco crop from sedson to season.

G. (Buddy) De Sylva now has William LeBarons old job at Paramount — manging director ¢l production — but you can find a bet among those who spend time worrying about such things that he won't be staying there forever DeSylva doesn't do things the customary Hollywood way He has even walked out on success — after “Bachelor Mother for instance. He finished producing it with every assurance of a hit, then packed for New York. “Usually people wait till they get into trouble, then away some place,” he says. “I like to go after a good one.” What he has done in New York is theatre history now — he has three hits running concurrently: “DuBarry Was a Lady,’ “Panama Hattie,” “Louisiana Purchase.” He came back to produce the Bob Hope picture, “Caught in the Draft,”” and another for Bing 'Crosby and Mary Martin, “Birth of the Blues.” That's to be the story of a band-leader down in New Orleans, about 1905, the first to play blues music . DeSylva celebrated his 45th birthday with a little busi- ness deal — sold “Panama Hattie” to M: M for $150,000 as an Ann Sothern-Shirley Temple vehicle.
