LAVISH SETTINGS
IN GRAYSON-LANZA
PICTURE AT CAPITOL
A total of 35 sets was required for 1
the filming of M-G-M's picturesque
and lavish new Technicolor musical,
"The Toast of New Orleans,” star
ring Kathryn Grayson, Mario Lanza ;
and David Niven at the Capitol j
Theatre. The new picture marks the
reunion of Miss Grayson and Lanza,
who scored a big hit together in
That Midnight Kiss.”
For the picture’s opening se-1
[juences, three adjoining sound stag
es on the Culver City lots were com- !
bined to house one of the largest
indoor sets ever constructed for a
film musical, that of the Bayou |
country of New Orleans in 1905. The
set comprised a Cajun fishing vil- I
lage, a complete shrimp fishing
fleet and the reproduction of a
fishing village carnival.
Other colorful scenes duplicate
the romantic French Quarter of New
Orleans, a highlight of which is a
reproduction of New Orleans’ famed
French Opera House, one of the
country’s show places before the fire
which burned it to the ground in
1919.
“The Toast of New Orleans” plays
at the Capitol for the last times
tonight.

ance of the program, receiving ap- 1
preciative applause from the aud
ience.
Another highlight of the evening i

audience was indicated when, after
two selections, they, by demand of
the audience, played five stirring
marches before the crowd would
let them stop.
Parents expressed their appre
ciation of the open house which
gave them opportunity to meet and
talk with teachers of their child
ren and see, at first hand, progress
made in the various classes.
SEDUCTION SUIT
STARTED AGAINST
FILM ACTOR FYLNN
AIX EN PROVENCE, France,
Nov. 7—-tffl—Errol Flynn’s new wife
today joined her husband in calling
a Monaco seduction suit against
the actor “ridiculous.”
Reached by telephone at Ville
france, Patrice Wymore Flynn, two
weeks a bride, told reporters Flynn
had told her about the “incident”
before they were married in Monte
Carlo on Oct. 23. The "incident” was
a charge filed by the parents of
19-year-old Danielle D- (name
withheld by the court) that Flynn
had seduced her aboard his yacht
in the blue waters of the Mediter
ranean 18 months ago. They asked a
million francs ($3,000) damages, to
be given to charity.
Hearing on the case is scheduled
for Wednesday but Flynn said he
was trying to have it postponed until
the end of November.

In Juneau Now

frosty Juneau today, at the Pan
American World Airways ticket of
lice in the Baranof Hotel.
Swaying palms, a green grass
carpet, Hawaiian furniture, and
tropical flowers—fresh, too! Soft
Hawaiian music, canned tropical
sunshine, make a background for
Manager Fred Dunn and his staff,
gay in aloha shirts serving pine
apple juice and murmuring entlc- j
ingly, "Yes mam, only $339, plus
tax, round trip to Honolulu from
Juneau by way of Seattle.”
Don Pegues made the set up and
Nancy Cameron of the Juneau Flor
ists, did the flower arrangements
, which include an exotic Bird of
j Paradise flowers.

/ Milestone in a Career!
i We see it happen over and over again—and it’s one of the
greatest satisfactions we enjoy in this happy business of
selling Cadillac cars.
It’s when a man comes into possession of his first
Cadillac—and we see the wonderful things it does for him.
We see his happiness as he places his order—not as the
k. result of a sudden inspiration, but because he has gradually
reached the conclusion that he has earned the right to
enjoy the unquestioned best.
And then we see him on that happy day when his car
is available for delivery—and he settles himself so proudly
behind the wheel.
He’s a little quizzical, we sometimes note. Could it be,
he wonders, that he has been anticipating a bit too much?
And then he’s out in the street—headed for home the
long way 'round.
Those are thrilling days that follow.
There’s the first long ride with the family . .. the first
trip to the office . . . and the time he learns, in an emer
gency, that his car is worth its whole price in safety alone.
And then, almost before he knows it, the odometer
registers a thousand miles—and he’s back to tell us all
about it. And, perhaps, to grumble a little bit at giving it
up—even for a little while!
Yes, it’s a priceless privilege to watch all this. Makes
a man feel that he’s doing good.
