FLORENZ ZIEGFELD is planning to return immediately to New York, where he will put a new stage show into immediate production. "Ziggy" isn't afraid of the talkies andsoundies. "I think they are the best thing that ever happened," he smiled," — to run people back into the theaters.

The only originally handled revue number I have see in any screen musical comedy is that melting-igloo number of the Eskimo girls in ' Sunny Side Up.' "
So far as the HollyAvood beauties go, Ziegfeld feels that the producers overlook some of their best numbers. His personal preference has already gone on record. He also believes that Lois Moran has a splendid stage presence.
