Hollywood Day by Day But, Hall didn't yell "Cut!" And, for three minutes, Mae and Paid stood, toe to toe, in oscillatory embrace {some fun, kids'). It might have lasted a lot longer, too, if Mae (and here's where she disappointed us) hadn't finally pulled out of the clinch, glared at the absent-minded Hall and demanded to know "what's the idea?" So, our fedora's off to Cavanaugh, who instead of being carted away, feet first, merely lighted himself a smoke and strolled off, nonchalant as you please! Ah, there, Paul. . . . JOHNNY MACK BROWN happened to *-* be just around the corner, the other night, when his five-year-old Jane Harriett, was saying her prayers. Full of paternal pride, Johnny stood by until the child said her "now-I-lay-me" and finished by blessing everybody in the house. Then, turning to the Brown police puppy who had been watching the proceedings with great interest, Jane Harriett said: "You better pray, too, 'Baron'. And you better pray hard. 'Cause I promised a kid down the street a couple of puppies, and if we don't get 'em pretty quick, he'll pull my hair"! ANN DVORAK and Leslie Teuton are ■**■ taking a course in German. And you'd be surprised at the reason. Coming into possession of a strange and rare animal, called a ivire-haired dachshund, the kids discovered that he would take orders from no one unless said orders were given in German. So, Ann atid Leslie dashed out to the nearest deutschmeister for instructions. Ja, das ist ein schnitzelhund ! 'TpHIS seems to be . a very doggy A month. But, dogs . . . horses . . . what's the difference, as long as I like pink giraffes? With Alan Hale's police dog on the job the family should give a care about bodyguards. Every night, "Ringo" plants himself right by the front door, nor will he budge until every member of the Hale household is in for the evening. Then, satisfied that all is well, ''Ringo" stalks out to his kennel, stretches out on the mink coat he dragged from the scene of the Voltaire apartment fire and goes sleepy-bye with one eye open and one ear cocked for marauders. /JND, speaking of marauders . . . ■" Douglass Montgomery got the scare of his life the other night. Doug was lying in bed talking to a friend on the phone, when he noticed that the bedroom door knob was turning . . . slowly. . . . Breaking off his conversation in the middle of a sentence, he gasped: "Call the police! . . . Call the police!!" into the phone. The knob flew back into place, there was the sound of scurrying footsteps and, by the time Doug could leap out of bed and yank the door open, the place was as empty and quiet as a tomb! Upon investigating, the police discovered that there had been a prowler in the neighborhood but were unable to run the fellow down. Next morning, bright and early, Doug got a license to tote a nice little gun. And now, even the house boy had better watch his step! OTILL, it might have been the same ^ ghoul that ha'nted Dorothy Tree's new house the first night she spent there? Right in the middle of the night, Dorothy was awakened by a terrific crash when a picture in the library mysteriously unhooked itself and fell to the floor! Then, next morning in the bathroom, a bottle of double-strength ammonia slipped from her hands, and, before she could get away from there, Dorothy fainted from the strangling fumes. Luckily for her, however, her maid happened to come in before she was thoroughly asphyxiated and dragged her to safety. We don't know how Dorothy feels about it, but, personally, we'd have a moving van backed up to that house r-rr-right now! 1DACK to the dog house. And Clark ■*-" Gable so tickled over that litter of fourteen Irish terrier pups that he's passing out cigars! Which sorta takes the starch out of Cora Sue Collins, who's been gloating over the five baby kittens that arrived at her house, via the kitty stork. But, at that, she has an edge on. Clark who's going to have a tough time digging up monickers for his brood, while Cora Sue has her family all nicely labelled already. And what high-powered names, too! They are "Garbo," "Shearer," "Billie Burke," "Pat" (O'Brien) and "Mayer"! Take a bow, Louie! VOU'LL be seeing the Crosby twins in the new Fox picture, "Redheads on Parade." Or rather, you'll be hearing 'em, which will give you all a chance to decide whether or not the youngsters have the makings of potential crooners. It all happened when the kids' mama, Dixie Lee, and John Boles were going through a love scene in a synthetic movie theater, surrounded by hundreds of extras in the roles of spectators. During the height of the action, Philip Lang and Dennis Michael Crosby, visiting the set with their nurse, interrupted the proceedings with what might be called crooning, or just plain bawling, it all depends on the way you look at it. Anyhow, instead of tearing his hair, Director McLeod said: "Swell! We'll leave it in. I've never been to a movie in my life that some little bundle from heaven didn't set up a howl right in the middle of the most interesting action. That's realism!" hf/P spotted Norma Shearer at the Cocoanut Grove the other evening and, so help me, Norma never looked more beautiful. Dressed all in white, she was, and looking utterly radiant as she sat between hubby Irving Thalberg and boss Louis B. Mayer. Much as it pains us, it's our bounden duty to report that the Bill Powell-Jean Harlow romance looks very much as though it may have struck a snag. Across the room, at a secluded table, we spied Jean with a good-looking chap who was a perfect stranger to us. And the guy was that attentive! T OOKS like Cupid must have got his *~^ ' wires crossed this month? Dick Powell, who has been a one-woman man, lo, these many years, has suddenly switched out on the Mary Brian angle and is paying heavy court to the delectable Virginia Bruce! And Mary (for goodness sake!) is trotting hither and yon with the attentive Guinn (Big Boy) Williams, apparently not missing Dick for a split second.
