Ross, discharged recently after three years with the U. S.

Army, always has sung to sell-out houses at the Eastman. His post-war musical career is now in full swing, and it was only a fortunate combination of circumstances that made it possible for the Civic Music Association to sign Ross for the opening concert. The tenor's radio work is increasing each week, and other plans may include Hollywood and Broadway. HELD OVER 2nd WK. DENNIS IRENE MORGAN-MANNING IKT.

Gillespie's young assistant, and in the new picture, "The Personal Touch," James Craig will take over where Van left off. Thia series has always proved popular, and nctors all like to play with Lionel Barry-more, whose Dr. Gillespie is noted. Lucille Bremer, who up to now has been in MGM's most expensive musicals, plays the femme lead, a neurotic society girl on the verge of insanity, who is cured by the young doctor. Carey Wilson is pro ducing and Willis Goldbeck is the director.

To Remake 'Down to Sen'? Once again "Down to the Sea In Ships" is being discussed. Cy Hurt le tt has come through with a script that' pleases Louis Lighton, Cy's first since he got out of service. Thousands of scenes of whaling taken in the Anarctic before the war, will be Utilized.

Besides, Betty MacDonald has short hair." Claudette looked actually 17 with her long hair, but when I talked to her she was home getting herself a nw hair-do. So it will all be changed.

Call mi uyi I.I. mfJlk 41 AllV'l 1 11 7 Says Lana By VIRGINIA MacPHERSON TIOLLYWOOD (LT) Hi is will come as some thing of a llov. fellas, but totlav we srivR you the new Lana Turner, supposed to acting. From now on you're concentrate on her The lady with the nultry charms announces she Is through with those pretty-pretty role. Heavy dranwner is her meat now.

And woe unto the first photographer who demands a cheese-cake shot! I finally got tired of making movies where all I did was wallt across the screen and look pretty," Miss Turner declared. "I got a big chance to do some real acting in i 'The Postman, Always Rings And I'm not going to slip back if I can help it." She isn't kidding, either. Even her bosses at MGM began to get idea after she turned down four "pretty-pretty" parts In a row. So they had another squint at the mighty fine emoting she did in ''The Postman" and sent her the script for "Green Dolphin Street." "The jmrt was originally intended for Katharine Hepburn," Miss Turner said gleefully. "And I guess I'm the most un-llepburnlsh actress on the lot.

But It was Just what I wanted to do." Seems the lady in the story strong-willed gal with a mind of her own. One who gets by on her wits instead of a body beautiful. Miss T. snapped It up in a hurry, agreed to lose about 15 pounds, and dyed her honey-colored curls a mousy brown. found her at work yesterday morning in a boudoir scene.

Wearing a nightgown, no less. But don't get your hopes up, boys. It was an 18.10 number and the Turner curves couldn't have been more covered up with a burlap bag. It even looked like one, except that it was all white. And she was enveloped modestly from throat to toe.

We guess even a burlap job would've been more alluring. At least, hrr legs would have peeked through, We'll have to admit It came as something of a shock. We're used to seeing Ih Turner all gussied up in form-fitting gowns with low necklines and slit skirts. But that. I she says, has been her trouble all i along.

"I tried to persuade the studio to give me somthing different," she explained. "But every time I went into my argument about how bad a picture vas they'd say, 'well, it's making a fortune. That licked me." The boys in the front office would thrust a profit sheet under hr nose. Those figures, argued, plus one Miss Turner had to offer, proved the customers would plunk down their 90 cents to see her on the screen even If she never opened her beautiful mouth. Except maybe to kiss the leading man.

X- "The Postman Always Rings Twice" Miss Turner had the profit sheets on her side. Look she told the powers that be, at the cash It's bringing in. That oughta prove she could handle a dramatic role, by golly. "So they're taking another chance on me," she said. "In 'Green Dolphin Street' I even go running around in the jungles of New Zealand in a dress that's filthy and ragged.

I don't wear any makeup and my hair's a mess." And she's never been happier. We had another look at that flow er sack nightie and asked if she was skipping glamour forever. "Well, no-o-o-o," Miss Turner said. "Let's not get too ambitious about this. Let's just say I'm past the leg-art stage.

And the roles where I don't do anything but dress up and walk in front of the camera." Brian Aherne Halts Runaway Horses Las Vegas, Nev. VP) Brian Aherne turned Western hero in the beet movie tradition yesterday to stop four horses running away with a stage couch In which were Mrs. Aherne, skater Belita and the hitter's husband, Joel McGinnls. No one was Injured, and to make It further like a press agent's dream come true- newsreel cam eraman Ralph Staub filmed the entire adventure. Aherne was on a saddle horee riding alongside the coach when the four horses shied and bolted The driver was unable, to stop them, so Aherne rode up beside one of the lead horses, jumped from his mount Just, his press agent said, like Roy Rogers does It onto the back of the runaway.

Many Night Scenes Shot for Arch' Hollywood Ex-swing-hlfter at war plants will find a nostalgic note in "Arch of Triumph," Enter prise's Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer co-starrers. Daylight scenes are few and far between, 96 per cent of the action taking place at night. To heighten the dramatic effect and reproduce with fidelity the low key necessary in nocturnal sequences. Enterprise has used one of Hollywood's best experts in that type of camera work Russell Mctty, Metty has photographed numerous sequences with a wide-open lens and the minimum amount of light necessary to project an Image on the screen. Advance glimpses of the "Arch" rushes have again demonstrated how Important the photography Is to creation of moods, it is said.

Vincent Price has flown to the bedside of his mother, who Is in a very serious condition Cleatus Caldwell and Bob Hutton told me at the Modern Screen party Ihnt they are postponing their marriage for a week because they cannot move into their new house.
