Shubert and Erlanger offices to book them, It will be Impossible with their 1931-1832 schedule to entertain any other suggestions or offers. With twenty-five or more Ideas appearing in the Fox theatres and with twenty-five, or thirty to get ready to piny the recently contracted theatres beginning next month it will require every minute of their time as well as the experts in their recently opened Hollywood studios, together with an extra number of employees, to have the productions completed in time to send to the different cities to open.

Fanchon and Marco recently turned down an offer from an English syndicate to start a production plant over there, and while it was most tempting, they felt they could do only so much and they prefer to put forth their best efforts in the good, old United States. In September, when the producers have their Ideas moving along smoothly, they will begin drawing plans for the Chicago 1932 World's Fair Spectacle, for which they were awarded the contract recently.

It was announced for her under the title, "The Lady From New Orleans." James Cagney Is going to remain in the movies. Various Broadway producers have tried to tempt the hard-boiled young man of "The Public Enemy" and "Smart Money" back to the footlights; two attractive offers have been made since the beginning of this month of June. But Cagney and Warner to whom he is under a long-term contract, have waved them aside. He is now making a new picture, "Larceny Lane," with Joan Blondell, at the Warner studios. The Sacramento River, used as scenic background for the memorable screen version of Mark Twain's immortal story, "Tom Sawyer," which served to inaugurate the present vogue of Juvenile stories, is again to furnish location for a Twain classic, "Huckleberry Finn."
