Now Cecil DeMille finally comes into his own. He will be the first director to receive the D. W. Griffith award at Screen Directors Guild dinner on Sunday night; and many believe "The Greatest Show on Earth" will receive the Academy _, Award. DeMille's picture, not including "Samson and Delilah" and "Greatest Show," have been attended domestically by 1,766,000,000 people. Foreign attendance was 1,448,000,- 000, making a total of 3,214,000,- ?Θ╝00 paid admissions. I'd like to see that equaled. fe?╟÷ I DON'T BELIEVE we'll be seeing Greg Peck for many months. He's at Lancaster Hotel in Paris, with Robert Parrish, discussing "The Purple Plain," for which he's wanted. I hope his wife, Greta, meant it when- she^jiaid she'll join him abroad. ?|tfehe doesn't, she'll be turning him oyer to all the hungry fCmaljp; m Europe. * BetmMJ^iOn's dding amazing businj^lat \ffir Curi$a Theater in San FssS^soo. She'll remain there four f^p&s. They love the gal. June Alryson, the gal who still wants to quit pictures, now has four on her schedule. June is as refreshing as a summer breeze in "Battle Circas." fe?╟÷ WHEN MARILYN MONROE sings "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend," she'll be against a back-^ ground of red velvet and on floor. She does the old burlesd bumps and grinds in "Gentlenil _ Prefer Blondes." The difference being in movies the bump is made backwards; in burlesque, it goes forward. Marilyn visited a burlesque show downtown, and when she came out, she said, "Just imagine. Some of those girls didn't have a stitch on!" When Bob Taylor appeared on "Toast of the Town," he broke the TV ban on MGM contract players. Now all MGM stars can appear on TV'iffltey help sell the films in which they appear. Walter Pidgeon's in New York now signing for a ra<g show. Jimmy Stewart bought back the plane in which Joe De Bona broke the transcontinental engine-driven plane record. They're getting the plane back in shape and Joe will again attempt to break the record which Paul Mantz now holds. Jimmy sold the plane to Jacqueline Cochran. DORIS DAY GOT a bruised nose' in "Calamity Jane." Howard Keel and she were supposed to ride toward each other in horseback and e^iss^)r a scene. Howard missed her Eps and banged Doris in the schnpzzle with his forehead. The heat's on our stars who are ducking income taxes by remaining abroad 18 months. In a sense you can't blame them. Their professional career is usually short. After all the law was made up for oil workers abroad.
