Closeups in Hollywood By Milton Harker (Copyright, 1938, by International News Serrice) Hollywood, Dee, 15-Having terminated their contracts with Warner Brothers by mutual consent, Dick Powell and Joan Blondell leave Hollywood for a second honeymoon shortly after January 1, Married two years ago last September, they have never been able to take a vacation together because if one were free the other was working. They'll go first to New York to take in all the shows and then to Miami, Dick informs this reporter. He finishes his last picture for the studio, "The Professor Steps Out," on Saturday. Joan won't be finished with hers, "Broadway Cavailer," until just after Christmas. "We have never been able to get away together since our honeymoon and believe me, we're going to take a good long vacation now," Dick said.

He's worried because Joan has been working with a fever. She's refused to go home and go to bed. She's that anxious to complete her picture. Their children, Norman, 5, and Ellen, 7 months, both are laid up with colds. Dick was Ill with the flu recently, so the whole family has had its troubles.

Norman and Ellen will remain home with the nurse when Joan and Dick go east. They figure that if either the children were taken ill they could get home by plane in less than 24 They're too young to travel. Dick revealed the possibility of his quitting the movies to this correspondent a couple of weeks back, as duly recorded. This reporter also informed you two months ago that Joan would make no more than three pictures next year. All Dick wants to return are better stories.

The remark which angered Errol Flynn the most in the battle in which he knocked out, Aidan Roark, international polo player, the other day was one from another guest. As the scuffle began someone called out to Roark, "Don't hurt him, he's in the middle of a picture." That's when Flynn really cut loose with his fists. Fee for Atlantic City Visits Now Proposed Atlantic City, N. Dec. 15 (P)- The executive secretary of the Chamber of Commerce says: Can you stand the shock- that Atlantic City has too many visitors and maybe should be charged for the privilege of coming to the resort.

The secretary, Thomas L. Husselton, writing in the chamber's official bulletin, conceded that "crowds of visitors are our life blood." "But," he added, "when those crowds become so dense that even the most gregarious individual has difficulty enjoying himself, then the saturation point has been reached." Mayor C. D. White, a hotelman, joined Mr. Husselton in advocating the fee idea.

In the mayor's view, that would be the only fair way to deal with families who drove in on A Sunday morning, paste paper over their car windows 60 they can don bathing suits and leave the city nothing to remember them by except sardine cans and cracker boxes scattered over the beach.
