Eagle-Lion Producing Deal
One of the lost important producing-releasir ~ deals in recent years was concluded yesterday by Eagle-Lion Films, Inc., and Pro¬ ducing Artists, Inc.
The past, announced by EagleLion president Arthur Krim, pro¬ vides that Producing Artists, head¬ ed by Arthur S. Lyons, will de¬ liver to Eagle-Lion for release ever a three-year period a series of major feature pictures, each in the $2,000,000 bracket.
The major tie-up between the two organizations came after a series of huddles by executive heads of the companies following the recent arrival here from New York of Krim and A. W. Schwalberg, sales manager of Eagle-Lion.

ROLLING STONE
By SELMA STONE
Start ’em rolling ... To begin with, not being famous, even Sid¬ ney Skolsky doesn’t know whether I sleep in PJ’s, a nightgown or bare. However, we all have things to overcome in life . . . Let’s star¬ tle ’em dept.: Ray Bourhon is not only a FATHER but also a GRANDFATHER! He also ap¬ pears at Lew Leroy’s Cotton Club when he isn’t home diapering his granddaughter . . . Now that you’ve recuperated, George Tobias tells the funniest gags in the world. One night at the Tabu Res¬ taurant they even turned off the Juke Box so they wouldn’t miss a word (an unheard of occurrance)
. . . What made the women all swoon when Steve Crane walked into the Clover Club the other morning ? It didn’t bother me much, I just picked myself up off the floor and continued my break¬ fast.
Met Dave Dexter at last! He looks so young and he laughed when we asked how anyone so young and tender could be so bit¬ ter. He replied: “I still think three-fourths of the records made today STINK!” . . . “Make Mine Music” is a work of art. So re¬ laxing, and a sure cure for the blues. A little boy and his grand¬ father sitting at my right. The boy quietly enjoying the picture while the old man made delighted noises and guffawed all over the place. The little fellow turned to him and said, with a serious tone: “Please, grandfather, control your¬ self! . . . Lo and behold, John Hodiak, Anne Baxter, Ann Sothern and a blond mustached man, hav¬ ing a midnite snack at Dave’s Blue Room. Tried to see what they were eating but, not being a gi¬ raffe, gave up (we were on the other side of the room).
Aside to Lois Andrews: In your search for Marilyn MaxwellHave you tried Las Vegas? . . . Selena Royal gets all the breaks. Not only has she mothered Cary Grant, but now she has a chance to mother Van Johnson (in pic¬ tures, that is)! Both are on my “Boys I’d Like to Mother” list. . . . The vocalist appearing with Red Nichols at the Morocco on Vine St. is strictly in the drool dept. If you want to know why men leave home! — All I know is that, when said vocalist appeared on stage, the lady at the next table put a blindfold on her escort . . . Chuck Kay (the bartender at Vic¬ tor’s) claimed he would like to take a Gallup poll on the size of the average female bust in Holly¬ wood. How would you do it ? asks I (falling into the trap immedi¬ ately). I’d just stand on the cor¬ ner of Vine and Sunset with a tape measure and measure and measure.
KNICK-KNACKS
By JACK KENNEY
Well, let’s dish out a few stacks of musical knick knacks:
ETHEL SHUTTAE, that swell stylist of song who did such a grand job at the Florentine Gar¬ dens, is, at the moment, retired and living with her husband, who is a newspaper man in Houston, Texas. I just flew back from there with Leo Carrillo, where we spent four days raising $800,000 for the crippled children of Houston. We were nobly entertained by that grand Texas oil man, Glenn Mc¬ Carthy, who made this whole thing possible. We don’t realize how for¬ tunate we are until we see those broken little tots, trying to smile, fighting those dreadful diseases. They’d just tear your heart apart if you could have seen them the way we did. It’s a great country we live in, that’s why it’s a privi¬ lege to be able to do what we can for those unfortunate kids . . .
JACK HALEY says: “If it’s true that a sure cure for baldness has been discovered, somebody’d better start working on the unem¬ ployment situation.” He, of course, is considering all the Hollywood toupee makers who will be thrown out of work . . .
JACK HOPE, brother of Bob, has written a new song, entitled, “Love Makes the World Go ’Round.” So does some of the stuff we drink . . . David Rose, that young musical genius, is convinced that titles are extremely important in setting the mood for musical compositions. Consequently, Rose often spends twice the time dream¬ ing up a name for his pieces that he does in composing them. He’ll dash off a tune in an hour, but spend days creating a title, like, “Dance of the Spanish Onion,” or “Phone Me a Saxaphone City” . . . JUDY STEVENS, versatile young singer, has just been signed as the featured femme vocalist on the Frank Sinatra show. The pretty brunette is a former member of the original group of Six Hits and a Miss . . . LEO CARRILLO was kissed by Frances Scully, co-emcee of “Hollywood and Vine” 'pro¬ gram. Guest Star Leo gazed rap¬ turously at Frances’ golden locks and breathed fervently: “You know, I lova' all blondes — an’ I don’ta care how they get that way!”
IRENE RYAN, who got her start in show business at the tender age of 11, sang “Pretty B'aby” on an amateur night pro¬ gram in the old Valencia Theatre in San Francisco. She won the first prize of $3. Irene has come a long way and will now be fea¬ tured on the Jack Carson show (she’s a swell gal and a fine co¬ medienne). . . .
HI HO, KENNEY.
