Vallee, the crooner who hit pay
dirt in the 1930's as America's
favorite male vocalist, has gone
the way of all early film fav
orites. A book on his life is in
its final writing stages and plans
for a motion picture based on
his life are being considered.
"The "Vagabond Lover," who
completed a successful week's
run at a plush Miami Beach ho
tel, said that he has written an
autobiography, "My Time Is
Your Time." It will be publish
ed next spring by Henry Holt,
and Co. of New York.
Newly-discovered by the teen
age set, Vallee left the Miami
area for a series of club dates
around the nation. He'll appear
in Springfield, Mass., and he said
he has dates scheduled through
out the Midwest, in New Orleans
as well as a return date here
this fall at the height of the tour
ist season.
"As soon as the book is pub
lished," the graying Vallee said,
"I expect the motion picture on
my life to begin filming."
He said definite commitments
for the motion picture have not
yet been made but that 20th
Century-Fox and Metro Goldwyn
Mayer studios are considering
the picture.
Vallee will not play himself
in the picture, but will record
the music from his many famous
songs. He has selected James
Dean, who achieved stardom this
year in "East of Eden," to play
the part.
Vallee, who says he is not "an
old man," has been drawing rave
notices during his Miami engagement.
Sideline Pcfs Off
Better Than Regular Job
Buffalo, N. Y. (U.R) Swedish-born
Per E. Aden is doing
so well at his sideline job that
he may have to give up his reg
ular one. ..
Aden works days as a ware
house foreman for a builders'
supply firm. In his part-time
home basement business he turns
out a new' type of sump pump
casing he developed and pat
ented. He's had so many orders
for the device, which simplifies
the installation of a sump pump,
that he's- putting up a small
plant.
The company he works for
also works for Aden. It now
distributes some of the casings
which the 55-year-old inventor
turns out by himself at a four-a-day
pace.

Penny, a candy store owner

regular full-length movies and

"When I first came out here,"
he explained, "there wasn't any
place for the kids to go, nothing
for them to do."
He said, "every time you'd
turn around they'd want to see
a show, but there wasn't any
theater."
Penny arranged with a local
film rental company to show the
films at his own expense."
"They aren't the latest Holly
wood productions and the sound
track is sometimes rather
scratchy, but the boys and girls
don't seem to mind," he said.
Between 250 to 300 young
sters, "from babies on up," us

and overflow on the lawn for
the outdoor shows.
"The kids took to it right off,"
Penny said. "All I'd have to do
was tell four or five of them
there was going to be a show,
and they'd all come."
