The town is getting ready to greet David Niven (now out of uniform), his wife and baby when they arrive here in December. David will make more movies for Goldwyn. Oh Danny Boy: If anyone doubts the natural spontaneous humor that is a part of the many-sided Danny Kaye let him ask us. Our sides still ache from the antics of Kaye at a recent luncheon given by Sam Goldwyn in honor of actor Clarence Kolb’s seventieth birthday and fifty years in show business. The party was held on an empty sound stage on the Goldwyn lot. All the actors from Kaye’s picture, “The Kid From Brooklyn,” came over from the next set to join those of us who had been invited by Mr. Goldwyn. We’ve heard a lot in our time about the cantankerous Mr. Goldwyn but if ever a man took a ribbing good naturedly from one Kaye it was producer Goldwyn. The quiet director Norman McLeod came in for his ribbing. “Here’s Norman getting mad,” Danny said, and proceeded to raise his voice an octave higher than a henpecked professor. Double talk with Cal tossing in his share went on between Danny and Mr. Moran the writer. Even Mr. Goldwyn began looking bewildered at the three of us. Kaye is funny, he’s childlike in his desire to perform, he noisily begs for notice and he’s that rarity of rarities — a natural-born comic who needs no help outside himself. And we for one would pay to lunch with the blonde and blue-eyed buffoon any day. Cal Visits Leo: Even brokers from Tucson are curious about movie mak In another corner — Dick Byron, Suzie Crandall and Steve Duiihill catch the fun mood at Leslee Gray’s soiree ing so Cal took his friend Frank Stone (back in civvies after nine months in an Army hospital) to lunch and to pry around Leo’s huge cage known as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Cal waved to little June Allyson at a table in the commissary, her hair almost straight as a poker, which made her look even more like the kid next door. Peter Lawford came flying over to thank Cal for a written word or two and Tom Drake’s cinnamon brown sport coat whizzing past held us all speechless for a second. The set of “This Strange Adventure,” closed by order of the front office, was miraculously thrown open for our short visit. On a steep incline built to represent a street in San Francisco, a yellow taxi seemed to hang by its teeth. Inside sat Joan Blondell and the gentleman grabbing open the taxi door with a nasty snarl was Mr. Clark Gable himself — movie (Continued on page 19) The gob and the gal who gave the party — Guy Madison, actor-sailor, with his pretty blonde hostess Leslee Gray 16
