The Out-West Boys Go South: Whoopee, Cal goes cowboy for the sake of the Marines. Figure that one -out. It happened the Sunday before Gene Autry and Smiley Burnette, the funny man in all Gene's pictures, left for Eastern personal appearances. Gene was going down to San Diego to visit his brother Dudley of the Marines and put on a show for the boys, assisted by Smiley who kills 'em with his monkeyshines. So Cal was invited to go along. We rolled along in a three-car caravan. Gene, his wife, sister and Mary Lee in one car; Cal, Smiley and his two-man troupe in another, and the Melody Ranch boys in the third, leaving right after Gene's afternoon broadcast. You never saw boys happier to see Hollywood folk than those Rifle Range Marines who whooped at Smiley and cheered Gene's songs. Afterwards we all had special supper in the big mess hall and then wandered through the enormous kitchens. Smiley almost got lost in the huge potato masher and had to be dragged out backwards. When it comes to downright genial fellow-to-fellow friendliness you've got to hand it to these Western players. Seems they knows just how to reach every boy's heart. And as long as there's a heart beating for Uncle Sam, Gene and Smiley will reach 'em. Cal's Answers to Your Questions: The original Navy Blues Sextette is still in Hollywood, but Peggy Diggins is the only one to remain at Warner Brothers. Lorraine Gettman, Marguerite Chapman and Georgia Carroll are at Columbia Studios; Claire James is married to director Buz Berkeley; and Kay Aldridge is Republic's new serial queen. Bob Stack is not in the Army due to a knee injury. Yep, you're right. It does place young Mr. Stack in an embarrassing position indeed, especially since he has no dependents. Fink's flash bulb picks off another celebrity at the fights: Margaret Sullavan. Admirer is husbanri Hayword Flower-Fresh the Arthur Murray Way ...
