Show By INEZ GERHARD TsONNA REED and John Derek U make such an excellent team in "Saturday's Hero," a timely and truthful picture of college football, that Columbia promptly teamed them again in "The Dark Page." In New York to promote the picture they were being run ragged, what with meeting the mayor, keeping radio and television dates, and appearing ap-pearing at ceremonies all over town. At lunch Derek could hardly ' DONNA REED eat; the hardy veteran of those really tough football sequences was booked to appear on TV that night and was really scared. Donna wasn't afraid of anything except that her young family might need her before she gets home; her son's just a year old. Donna Corcoran will become Metro's new Margaret O'Brien, if the executives' wishes come true. The nine-year-old has appeared in two pictures, "Angels in the Outfield" Out-field" and "Young Man in a Hurry" and will star in her third. Maureen O'Hara must like costume pictures, she makes so many of them. Her latest assignment as-signment is "Against All Flags," for Universal-International; she'll play the leader of a band of pirates. In the 18th century. Here's something really new. Paramount will hold the first showing show-ing of "My Favorite Spy," new Bob Hope-Hedy Lamarr comedy, in the home of a movie fan, complete with guest stars and spotlights. Just write the winning letter stating "Why I would like to have My Favorite Fa-vorite Spy' premiered in my home," address it to Bob Hope Contest, Box 382, Hollywood, California, and if you win you'll get the works. Bob is publicizing the 'contest for the next few weeks on his new NBC radio series. Good luck! |
