Dream Pre-Vues
HOLLYWOOD STAR-LITES
By Chuck Cochard
Although the famous Motion
Picture Academy of Arts and
Sciences’ annual banquet has
been called off this year—the
picking of the best pictures and
performance* will be conducted,
as usual at Grauman’s Chinese
Theatre in Mollywood on March
2. ' i ' :
All studios are getting out
their best entries and dusting
them off for the voting. About
1200 Academy members vote.
Pictures which played in Los
Angeles theatres during 1943 are
elegible.
Top condenders for the best
picture—we believe, will include
“Casablanca” and “Watch on the
Rhine” from arners. M-G-M
has ‘‘Lassie Come Home,” “The
Human Comedy” and “Madame
Curie.” At 20th Century-Fox
there is “Song of Bernadette.”
At RKO it will be “North Star."
From Columbia will come “The
More the Merrier,” and from
Universal “Shadow of a Doubt."
There were many good pic
tures, of course, and the result
this year might see a ‘‘dark
horse" first under the wire as a
photo-finish. Paramount’s "For j
Whom the Bells Toll” is another
likely candidate. For the fem
inine honors—from our corner
it’ll either be Greer Garson re
peating or Ingrid Bergman. For
the males it looks like like
Mickey Rooney or Humphrey

Bogart. And for the dog—Los
sie without a doubt.
The public has always been
barred from the annual banquets
as there is no banquet spot in
this .pity large enough to hold
all the industry members who
want to attend annually.
But this year the awards will
■be given out in Grauman’s fam
ous theatre—home of world pre
mieres—and 700 seats will be
sold tu the public for the big
event.

“Mr. Co-Ed” are reflected in
their own glory. There are 200
tiny mirrors on each of the bath
ing suits worn by the swimmers
in the water ballet. These min
iatures represent all the defec
tive mirrors and mirror orna
ments found in the studio’s ware
houses, which were cut into the
required size. We watched them
shooting the number—and can
vouch it is one of the most beau
tiful ever photographed for any
musical.
She didn’t want to be an ac
tress—Seven years ago, when
Deanna Durbin was being test
ed for her first Universal pic
ture “Three Smart Girls,’’ she
gave Director Henry Koster
plenty of trouble. Terrified by
the camera, she wept copious
tears, hen Koster asked her if
she widn’t want to be a star,
Deanna wailed, “No,—I just
want to sing, that’s all.”

NEW PLANE
IS SUCCESS
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7—(AP)
—Whole, new vistas of rocket
plan travel is opened by disclos
ure of a fighter plane using ‘‘jet
propulsion". The plane has been
developed and pronounced a suc
cess.
The new plane, visions of which
were awakened by scientific re
search years ago, was announced
jointly last night by the Army
Air Forces and the Royal Air
Force.
It has already completed sev
oral hundred test flights without
mishap and quantity production
will begin soon.
Today’s planes of orthodox de
sign, have about reached their
speed limit. Jet propulsion is re- i
garded by engineers as the logi
cal next step. Jet propulsion,
commonly called rocket propul
sion eliminates the propellor.
Instead of the propellor "bit
ing” the air to pull the plane
forward, jet propulsion is a ser
ies of powerul explosions.
The new plane uses engines de
signed and developed by a grpup
under Capt. Frank Whittle of the
RAF. who as far back as 1939
was reported working with blow
er type rotary compressors call
ed rotars.
The bearing of the compressor
is liquid cooled. The kind of fuel
the Whittles engines use was hot
disclosed.
AIRWAYS

Captain Herman Joslyn arriv
ed yesterday noon with Lt. Col.
R. H. Hackford and Capt. H. F.
Bell aboard. Mrs. Roy Valdez and
her little boy, Roy J., were also
aboard. The plane left immed
iately for Fairbanks with mail
and C. K. Carlisle, field exatwi- j
ner for the Department of the
Interior.
