Aug. 23. Charging that widespread employment of child labor here was developing vicious gang- habits among hundreds of youngsters, Judge William Andrews today launched a drive to keep children off the streets at night and end the evil. He is seeking the co-operation of officials here and elsewhere in the campaign.

The judge blamed lack of proper parental supervision, partial failure of police co-operation, and the absence of social consciousness for the evils he is fighting against. Children are being employed in various capacity at night, including the selling of newspapers, a shirt. It seems that Miss Harlow got Gable so -excited that he forgot he had put on a shirt already.

Yet, looking through the window of the auto, says Peter Colone, it is a bright sunny day and people are seen walking without their coats on. This is an instance, probably, where the transparency shot didn't their feet at midnight. The Judge said that ir his drive he was recognizing the economic necessity of minors to work in whatever gainful occupations they could find, but added that moral and health interests necessitated match the scenario. Mr. King and Mr.

Heggie sat in the auto on the set as the scenery was projected on the screen behind them; only it seems, according to Peter, that they got the wrong scenery.

After leaving the party with Walter in "Alice Adams," Katharine Hepburn wears the long raincoat while walking from the truck to the front door of the hoase. Miss Hepburn opens the door, writes T. Taistra, and as she steps inside, the raincoat ham disappeared and she's wearing only the very short jacket. This scene was shot on different days. The rain sequences were done onm day and her entrance into thm house on another.

Miss Hepburn forgot aboat the raincoat and the script girl did also. But Miss Hepburn didn't forget to give great performance. DICK POWELL is a stowaway on an ocean liner, sailing for Italy, in "Broadway Gondolier." William Kitay claims that the flash of the boat starting and the flash of the boat docking make it very evident that Powell arrived in Italy on a difFerent boat from the one on which he sailed. This is not unusual in flickers. For scenes of boats sailing or in mid-ocean stock shots are used.

The director uses whatever stock shots are available in the studio's film library. These shots are necessary only to continue the action; the director doesn't believe the movie audience will inspect the boats hut many of them do. Again, in "Broadway Gondolier," B. Arthur is amused by that sequence in which Adolphe Menjou drops a coin into the telephone, calls Western Union, and sends a cablegram to Italy. What amused Mr.

Arthur about this scene was that Menjou could do all this for a nickel. Many flicker fans have written in to tell of the boner in "The Call of the Wild," when Jack Oakie walks along oing-' ing, "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More." They believe that this is strictly a modern song that came in after the period of the flicker. However, the Twentieth Century-fox research department says that this ditty, as rendered by Oakie, was sang by the miners during that gold rash. Therefore, it is not a movie boner. In fact, according to the research department, there were other lyrics to this tunm which were sang by the miners bat the censors wouldn't permit those lyrics the screen.
