Released by Western Newspaper Union By VIRGINIA VALE RACE MATTHEWS, the J new "Big Sister" star, began her radio career with a bang; a graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, in London, she was accustomed to the stage's broad gestures, and in one expansive sweep she knocked the script from the hands of her fellow actor at the mike. Last year she won three of Canada's top awards to radio actors; played op--I posite Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Ralph Bellamy and Charles Boyer, among others. Her first part on an Ameri- - LssV GRACE MATTHEWS can program was on a CBS sustain-ing show; Ted Huston, the "Big Sister" director, heard a general audition she had then, and ten months later she got her present role. Warner Bros.' "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" may be known as the father-and-so- n opus. Humphrey Bogart is starred, of course, but Jack Holt and his son Tim, who has a leading role, appear in it. And Walter Huston is featured, and his son John not only wrote the story and directs the picture, but also ap- - pears in one sequence. May be the start of a cycle; after seeing his son's debut In "Pur-- I sued," Henry Carey began writing a screen play of early Nevada days for his offspring. When Jane ("The Outlaw") Rus-sell did a guest singing appearance on the Kay Kyser show she launched her new career. She's signed for 13 weeks with him, and several sponsors want her for a half-ho- program of her own. She says she's developed her singing style by listening to jive recordings had signed up to do an album of songs for a major recording com-pany. The largest mob scenes photo-graphed since D. W. Griffith made "Intolerance" were made for "Keeper of the Bees" at Columbia's Sunset studio where Griffith shot those Babylonian sequences. But the mob John Sturges directed was 60,000 bees! Columbia equipped a complete ship's galley for "Assigned to Treasury," fed more than 150 ex-tras with food cooked there, and then burned the whole set to the ground for one of the climaxes in the Dick Powell-Sign- e Hasso star-rer. Anne Baxter, who can act rings around most of the Hollywood ac-tresses, certainly deserved that Academy Award for the best sup- - porting actress. She'll be in 20th Century - Fox's "Letter to Five Wifes," and will probably walk off with the picture. Now that little Marlene Aames ("Cookie Bumstead" on the CBS "Blondie" show) has appeared in the last two Academy Award pic-tures, she hopes she's started on her third. With "The Lost Week-end" and "The Best Years of Our Lives" on her list, Ray Milland asked for her presence in "The Big Clock," starring him, Charles Laughton and Maureen O'Sullivan. Burl Ives has wandered over the country collecting folk songs; now Maylia, Hollywood's new Chinese actress discovery, is teaching him some of her native ditties. Burl's stealing a march on filmdom's pro-ducers, who don't know Maylia can sing. When Jack Barry invited little Robin Morgan to Join his "Juvenile Jury" he didn't know that she Is the busiest child model in one of the big model agencies. Candy Jones dis-covered her last year and gave her expert training. ODDS AND ENDS The sponsors of "Ladies Be Seated," "Give and Take," and "Meet the Missus" are consider-ing another radio program of the same general type. . . .
