The film used will be 65 millimeters wide rather than the usual 35. This method is expected to eliminate the blur and fuzziness sometimes evident in other wide screen processes. The company producing the picture is headed by notable show business names: Joe Schenck, Mike Todd, Oscar Hammerstein, Richard Rodgers, and Arthur Hornblow Jr. . . . Teresa Wright will go to England next month for a picture'titled ^'Monsieur Ripois," which has as its male star the French actor Gerard Philipe.

This six feet-four irich, 210 pounds 'ot maili^broke in there as a reservation clerk. Later, in I New York's French Casino, Carl Snyder made Jack a floorman f and then assistant manager. And it was 4&Mhis capacity he attracted1 the i attention of the fabulous Sherman Billingsley. As a result, Jack was made host at the Stork Club in 1938 and that was when he gained-the attention of the nation's outstanding personalities. Johnny Ray, Frankie Lane, and Martin and Lewis have all paid off as night club stars through the astute handling of Jack Entratter when they were obscure beginners. Jack invested his faith in these people and it paid off handsomely. ^1J|RLENE DEITRICli AND "BIG JACK" TodaJjOiis boldness in daring to try something new has attained foic^ackja brand new reputation.
