Georges Benoit, A.S.C, is nappy that these are the days which are not preceded by alcoholic nights that bring "the morning after." For, if such. were the case, Georges might well question the accuracy of his sight — if he had imbibed
too persuasively the preceding night — when he steps on the set for the filming of his current production at the Metropolitan studios. Be it known that it is the duty of Georges to shoot a banquet scene in which the guests partaking of food are not only Harrison Ford and Phyllis Haver, who head the cast, but embrace, in addition, one lion, one Kangaroo, one horse, one cat and one dog. Fortunately, no pink elephants or ring-tailed leopards are included. The picture is "No Control." Harry Myers is also one of the principals.
