HOLLYWOOD (AP) An array of brand-new personalities mads the big splash that means stardom with their dives Into the movie pool during 1932, and several others not so new to the fans chose this year to top prelimi nary attempt with equally spectacu lar plunges. The year brought to the screen for the first time the feminine find of the year, Katharine Hepburn, In "A Bill of Divorcement," the picture that made her the talk of film circles overnight. It brought sensations with Lee Tracy In "Blessed Event and Paul Muni tn "Scarface" two successes that were the most spectacular be cause both Tracy and Muni previously had been tried by Hollywood and found wanting. It sent the little known Ann Dvo rak from a movie chorus to a role In "Scarfaqc" that meant stardom In a rapid succession of films, termi nated, however, by her marriage to Leslie Fenton and desertion of Holly wood for the European atudlos. It took three stage stars from the footlights and made them screen famous In their first appearance Charles Laughton, Mae West and Her bert Marshall- and seized Johnny Welssmuller, whose previous plaudits had all been won with swimming, from civilian ranks to exploit his phy sique In "Tarzan" and make him an Instant success. The year brought, too, long-awaited opportunities to a former boxer and dancer, George Raft, and to a talented character actress from the stage. All son Skipworth. Raft, after several years of bits and parts in Hollywood, came through In "Scarface" and Miss Skipworth, after a few fairly good parts on the screen, reached stellar billing with "MadameRacketeer." Jean Harlow, who made a sensa tional debut in "Hell's Angels," found 1932 her year of opportunity, achiev ing name-above-the-tltle status with "The Red Headed Woman," and War ren William clinched his stellar hold with "The Mouthpiece" and "The Dark Horse." Aside from such stars as Leslie Howard, Fredrio March, Helen Hayes, James Cagney, Jimmy Durante, Joan Blondell, and others who only added new laurels to those gained last year, there were several outstanding "dis coveries" belonging- exclusively to 1032. They include George Brent, Cary Grant, Aline Macmahon. Tom Brown, Dorothy Wilson, Lyle Talbot an . Pres ton Foster. Several potential screen favorites await Judgment on Important features not yet generally released. Ethel Bar- rymore's talkie debut In "Rasputin" is awaited, along with hose of Ruby Keeler in "Forty-Seoond Street," Dl- ana Wynynrd In "Rasputin'' and "Cavalcade" and Boots Mallory in "Walking Down Brocktway."
