Dan Rorimer. settling down at the desk In hi tiny offlra and staring out of the window at a drlule ot rain, look ad back on two weeks ot Idleness and (errantly hoped there would ba work for him In the forthcom ing production. Kren It a lot of changes In the script were neces sary, be wouldn't mind not un less thry changed the framework of his story. It would at least make hlm feel like an essential part ot the ma chinery of this organlia.km In stead cf a human fifth wheel, for gotten In a little coop of n office wllh a typewriter, a desk and a couple of chairs, and a window that looked out upon numerous parked automobiles. . Whan Continental Pictures bad bought bis story the executlTe t the New Vork office had In formed him that the atudio con templated Immediate production. Rorlmer had thought "Immediate production" meant just that, and was surprised to find on his ar rlral that nothing had been done beyond the preparation ot the cenarlo. He had read that, had been Impressed by lis technical chartsmanshlp. Looking back orer those two weeks. Rorlmer smiled a little bit terly at the recollection of his re ception at the Continental lot. He bad been Introduced to ihe pro ducer, no less, and tha Important an,j busy Individual had ordered that Rorimer he shown the sights. The studio manager had invited him to lunch, introduced him to various directors and scenario writers at the table, who had greeted him plsasantly, pausing long enough in their game of throwing dice to see who should be stuck for the meal checks to bid him welcome to Hollywood. One of the directors said. "If you're not doing anything this af ternoon, come over on Stage Five. Were shooting some Interesting stuff." Photography in natural color. Bunding beside the director, Ror imer, who never had been inside a moving picture studio before, watched with keen Interest, and was informed by the director that the lights used In color photogra phy were several times as strong as those for black and white. "Hotter than the very devil, too. I understand they'e working on s cold light now. It'll be great It they perfect It This morning 1 was shooting a restaurant scene. $5-00 Values to 112.75 $7-75 Values to $19.75 $9-75 Values to $24.75 . $14-75 Values to $36.75 There's Chic Comfort in Cool Prints Slashing Reductions on Every Summer Dress in the house.

Well, the table had been under the liglita for a little while and did she drop thai tray! It was hotter than fire. She said a few thing, too." What caused Dan Korlmer to smile now was the (act that after three or four days of being treat ed like a veiling celebrity he bad been abruptly (orgotten. The scen ario chlet, showing him to the lit tle office, had said. Well, Korl mer. this 1 yours. I'm sending In a bunch ot scripts: you can study them to see how it's done. We'll be making ou work pretty soon and (bis is a tine little place to sweat. Rorlmer now looked about hlm. A fine place to sweat! A fine placo to sit and wonder If I hey ever expected to use you! Four Plain walls, adorned with a few framed pictures of movie celebri ties. A door al ono end. a win dow at the other; beside the win dow, his desk. Someone now stuck his head In at the door. It was Gregg, the scenario chief. He said, "I aappose you're ready to give them a band you knew that Murray was sic' t" "Yes," said Rorlmer. "I'm darned glad to get to work." Gregg smiled. He was gray and well groomed, with a lined cheek and a perpetually worried look In his eyes, from (requent tilts will-, the studio manager. "You may ge more than you're loosing (or." he said. "I Just wanted to warn you about one thing: don't get sore If they ask yon to make changes in your story. Maybe I dont need to tell you that." "I hope not." said Rorimer. "Well, it's not pretty to write a nice magazine story, or a book, and have somebody kick it all around for you.

Collins was the director who bad been so Pleasant to him his first day at Continental, When he makes a suggestion. " Ores said, "it's usually a sound one. "I've hoard he's very good." said Dan. "I've got only .mo kick; why " tlreicg Interrupted with a pa tient smile. "Why ilhl they give your story to Atwood? lletuceu the two ot. us, even Collins squawked a little when A.lamson did that. But Atwond's got a cost ly contract. 'and we've got to keep him busy. Besides, he won't he as bad as yon think: he's a trooper, whatever thev sav about him." By mid-afternoon Rorlmer had reason lo Ihink even more highly of Collins' ability. Several times durlug rehearsals the director had stopped everything and .turning to Dan, had shown where (he changing of a line here and there would Improve the dialogue. Once it had added a laugh to a scene in which a laugh was needed greatly. It had relieved the tension ot a long, nerve-wracking sequence. Collins said he delieved In long nd thorough rehearsals. "It cuts Iowa the retakes." he explained. Me prided himself a little on his reputation fr quick n- "!n -Hons. weeping clmenca More people are changing over to Cjenerals than to any TWO other makes of tires IN every part of the country, thousands of safety-seeking motorists are replacing their present tire equipment with the new Blow-Out Proof Dual-Balloon. Without qualification, it is the most important safety advancement in tire history. You can't see a blowout coming. It hides under rubber that still looks good and "blows" when you least expect it. A sudden swerve a minor break in the pavement ... a quick, hard push on the brake . . . it's that split second of tremen dous strain that brings a blowout and a crash. The very moment you have to trust your tires is the moment they fail you. You never need risk your life again on doubt ful tires. General's perfection of the Blow-Out Proof Tire gives you the absolute safety of freedom from blowouts . . . and far more. The lowest pressure ever known, plus built-in rubber shock absorbers, give you easier riding with softer, closer-clinging traction. Skid-safe anil Blow-Out Proof means full protection that lasts throughout the whole lifetime of its big mileage. .... And Now A SPECIAL TRADE-IN Proposition!

'Collins remarking t h:i t he was quick and Intelligent, and faclln. once voiced his approval. "You seem to know whnt It's all about." ha said. "Hood dialogue's the thing. Kver write anything for the stage?" "The stag doesn't know It yet," Dan smiled. "I wrote a play, but that's as far as II got." Collins nodded. "Maybe It help ed you more than you know."

He smiled, thinking of the! pleasure he would take In tolling Collier about Anne Winter. "So i you were out of town In case she had a friend, eh?" I But Anne didn't have a girl friend: she lived alone. This he had learned upon taking her home Saturday night.
