San Francisco Women Form Film Colony Club Under the leadership of Paula Grubstick, acting president, the Film Colony Club in San Francisco has resumed activities. The group, which represents several hundred girls employed in theatre offices, film exchanges and affiliated industries, suspended activities during the war. The club plans to rent offices and club rooms in a centrally located building, and will also engage in local civic betterment movements and tendering aid to European and Filipino children. Possibilities of establishing similar Film Colony Clubs throughout the country are being explored. The club is also affiliated with the Federation of Women's Clubs. The first meeting, November 8, will be a buffet dinner party at the offices of the California Theatres Association. Western Hemisphere Films Handling French Product Western Hemisphere Films, Inc., has been organized, and established offices in New York City to distribute French films in North and South America. The company is headed by Emil Bourcourt, president, and Maurice Lev, general manager. They will import 18 French pictures, editing and titling them in English in New York. The first of the series is "Clandestine," glorifying the role of the American G. I. in the liberation of Paris. It will be shown in New York in December. Legion of Decency Reviews Six New Productions The National Legion of Decency reviewed six new productions this week, approving all but one. In Class A-II, unobjectionable for adults, were "Lady in the Lake," "Man from Morocco," "The Razor's Edge," "San Quentin" and "The Time, the Place, the Girl." "The Verdict" was placed in Class B, objectionable in part, because of "light treatment of marriage ; suggestive lines ; suggestive dance."
