She is "Mrs. Hollywood" for the next twelve months. But she hasn't made a movie for a year and a half. And she hasn't got one in mind, either. Not because nobody wants her. As of last Thursday night, when Hollywood passed around its golden doorstoppers for bang up jobs in 1949. Miss de Havll land's market value on the movie block went up SI million. Practically every producer in town would give up two or three "yes-men" to get her on his payroll. And she is anxious to get buck to work herself. "But I can't find a story," she said. "My room upstairs is piled high with scripts and nov els and plays. I read at least three a week, hoping maybe this will be it." Getting Eyestrain So far, all she's getting is eye strain.

She can af ford to let some other movie queen make with the funny wisecracks. "A play I would love, though" she added, "as long as it's some thing dramatic." Roomful of Gilts But something better not pop up in the next few days. Miss de Havilland is still digging herself out from under a living room full of congratulatory gifts and flowers and wires.
