inside Stuff STAR CANDIDS [Continued from page 33) she squealed. “When I was a school girl in France, I won zee prize for my breast stroke!” The entire set collapsed. Round-Up: Ray Bolger who can afford to be independent, wouldn’t appear at the new Hotel Sahara in Las Vegas ’tis said, unless he received more than any other performer. The show went on to capacity business. The dancer supposedly received 120,000 per week for his talent . . . Plaudits for his fabulous performance in “The Thief” were short-lived for Ray Milland. He has to sing to Jane Wyman in “Love Song” and the poor guy’s scared silly . . . Jeffrey Hunter’s first gift for his new son was a letter-man sweater with big 1971 numerals on the chest . . . With Hollywood necklines plunging lower than ever, Doris Day receives hundreds of letters from masculine admirers who laud her for leaving something to their imagination! . . . Joan Crawford buys Rosemary Clooney recordings by the dozen and hands them out as door prizes. Studio Stuff: Susan Hayward is now one up on Anne Baxter, who currently loves to smoke small after-dinner cigars in public. Susie girl smokes a corn cob pipe in “The President’s Lady” and loathes it . . . Peter Lawford, who wasn’t a bit happy when Cary Grant got that role in “Dream Wife,” probably won’t be with M-G-M by the time you read this . . . This is the story of the three Johnnies! Director John Ford was so enthusiastic over actor John Russell’s performance in Republic’s “The Sun Shines Bright,” he called his good friend John Wayne to come see the rushes. Prodigal Son: Usually there are two sides to a story. This time we heard — three! Farley Granger was suspended by Sam Goldwyn recently, when he refused to make personal appearances for “Hans Christian Andersen.” According to friends he wanted to go. But they wouldn’t tell him where he was going or for how long. The star is doctoring for a stubborn virus, he’s building a house and is needed here. Also, the studio supposedly knew Farley would protest; he wasn’t working, and by suspending him they saved his salary! We just calls ’em as we hears ’em! Chuckle Wagon: Red Skelton said it after seeing Marilyn Monroe for the first time in a film : “She has the kind of voice you usually hear coming over transoms!” . . . “Tony Curtis,” says a producer (who is mad at him), “is so good in ‘Houdini,’ he’s even making his best friends disappear!” . . . Vic Mature, refusing to fly to the “Baptism of Fire” location at Ft. Leonard Wood in Missouri, insisted on taking the Super Chief. “It doesn’t go that way,” the studio explained. “That’s your problem!” answered the inimitable guy.
