Show ! STAR DUST 1 $ Movie Radio $ By VIRGINIA VALE SAMUEL GOLDWYN is taking tak-ing bows again for succeeding suc-ceeding where many other motion picture producers have failed. He has made a new version of an old picture that is even better than the old one and the first "Stella Dallas" was the best picture of its year, some twelve years ago. This picture is frankly a tear-jerker, the story of a millhand's daughter daugh-ter who married a gentleman, but could never become a lady. But "Stella Dallas" was fine and courageous cou-rageous enough to see to It that her daughter had a chance to become be-come one of her father's set rather than hers. Barbara Stanwyck give3 a sincere and gripping performance as Stella. K . If you would rather laugh than cry, Paramount and Twentieth Cen- L tury-Fox are all ready for you with two mad musical ' extravaganzas. Par-amount's Par-amount's contribution contribu-tion is "Artists and Models" and it stars Jack Benny. Twentieth Twen-tieth Century's new one is "You Can't Have Everything," and In it the Ritz Brothers are madder mad-der and merrier than ever, Alice Alice Faye 1 T r aye sings saa Bunya aiiu uun Ameche is a pleasant hero. Funny part about this picture Is that you will adore Phyllis Brooks who plays one of the most unpleasant parts you have ever seen a soubrette whom everybody In the cast loathes ' with good reason.

Buck Jones hasn't fallen for vocal lessons yet, but he has hired a heavy for his new picture, "Sudden Bill Dorn," who can warble war-ble Western ballads with the best of them. His name is Harold Hodge. Anna May Wong, who will re'-jrn to the screen this fall under the auspices of Paramount, playing a sort of female Charlie Chan, spent her time meanwhile playing summer sum-mer theaters in the East. At Mount Kisco, where Frances Farmer had made a tremendous hit, Anna ?.Iae ' made a decorative and charming "Princess Turandot" in a piny adapted from the opera cf that name. Dorothy Day, one of the famous clothes models who worked in Walter Walt-er Wangcr's "Vogues of 1P33" came to New York for a brief vacation, and when she returned to Hollywood, Hol-lywood, she learned that she had a brand new name. Mervyn Le Key, who gave her a contract to make pictures for him decided that Dorothy Doro-thy Day was not a good name be- . cause there are several actressos and two authors already using it. lie is going to bill her ns Vicki Lester, Les-ter, the name of the character that Janet Gaynor played in "A Star Is Born."
