Foreign "Movietime" Likely New York — As a result of action taken last fortnight by the MPAA’s Interna¬ tional Film Relations Committee, a sub¬ committee headed by Lawrence Lipskin, Columbia, was named to adapt features of COMPO’s “Movietime, U.S.A.” to the foreign field. On the sub-committee are Davis Blum, Loew’s International; Ger¬ ald R. Keyser, Warners, and Harry Stone, MPAA. Carl York, association interna¬ tional representative in the Scandinavian countries, told the committee that, in his opinion, “Movietime” would prove effec¬ tive in Sweden. Konecoff (C otinued. from page 8) titled the holder to free admission to the Mayfair. . . . Photoplay fashions on “Belles On Their Toes” are out to stores for pro¬ motional follow-ups. On that film, the Roxy on its opening day offered to admit free all families with 12 or more chil¬ dren. With that many kids, they deserve free admission once in a while. Also on “Belles On Their Toes”, 20th-Fox ran cute teaser ads featuring the youngsters on different pages of the local papers. MAIL: Montague Salmon, in telling us of his new release “The Pride Of St. Louis”, reported on the feature which just finished at his Rivoli as follows: “Incidentally, it might interest you to know that I had contemplated a tie-up for ‘Valley Of The Eagles’ with the Brooklyn daily paper, The Brooklyn Eagle. I thought that in that borough I would advertise the pic¬ ture as ‘Valley Of The Brooklyn Eagles’, but then I decided that it wouldn’t be fair to the Bronx, and so I dropped the thing.” To all this, we think that Salmon is a card, in honor of his next, “The Pride Of St. Louis”, which deals with the St. Louis Cards. Okeh, doc, we’ll go quietly. MORE MAIL: From the Motion Picture Association comes this: “Dear Mel. Here’s a peachy little pamphlet we just got out on the award given the industry by the previewers groups. “Obviously there are no news nuggets in the contents of the pamphlet, since you already covered the award luncheon. How¬ ever, we thought you might like to see what a fine job the pamphlet itself is. “We plan on giving it wide distribution to pix editors, film industry people, and various women’s organizations and com¬ munity groups all over the country. “Sincerely, “TIM THE CLAG (correct).” To all this we merely add: The pamphlet referred to the preview com¬ mittees of 13 national women’s organ¬ izations reviewing pictures, representing 40,000,000 women, it says here, and the award was one of merit for the entire industry from the women’s clubs. AND AWAY WE GO to Haiti. Fabian Sets Circuit Drive New York — A meeting of Fabian The¬ atres managers was held here this week. The circuit will hold a drive during June, July, and August, with managers par¬ ticipating in increases in grosses over 1951. WILBUR HILL /S IMPORTANT/ SEE PAGE 15 May 7, 1952
