"It's tough sometimes hot to bring up a new idea that just pops into your head about the job. But we have a special answer when one of us Starts to talk business. "We just say, 'It's after hours,' and that maens for the other to shut up and relax." Working together adds a new ingredient to domestic life. Miss Lupino says. But she added that if she and Young hadn'i thought they could intelligently weather all storms they never would have em barked on a business collaboration. ; The family sense of humor saves them, she confided, from many a serious quarrel. , "When I'm yelling and Collie's yelling," she said, "we suddenly both break up with laughter.

"Who ever refused to go see a girl because she was pretty?" she demanded.1 "If a girl has a good figure and shapely legs, she ought to be proud to show them." She added, further, that many a beauty has climbed to stardom on piles of cheesecake pictures. "Betty Grable. Ann Sheridan and Rita Hayworth became known for their beautiful figures before anybody noticed they could act," she said. In some quarters, they're still known for their beautiful figures. Double-Crosses Sister Right now Lola Is playing Evelyn Keyes' seductive sister in Colum bia's "The Killer That Stalked New York."

What does he get out of it? Nothing but a lot of money "There ought to be a Pulitzer Prize for radio writers," radio Writer Aleen Leslie says. "Anybody who can keen a radio serial coins indefinitely will walk away with any other kind of writing." Most daytime radio serial writ ers, Miss Leslie pointed out, have to create a good story In spite of countless ukases, tabpos, restric tions, "musts," prejudices, biases and other forces exerted by their advertising agencies, sponsors and radio stations. "There is a lot of kidding and complaining about the fact that soap operas have so. much agony and anguish and consist of an end less series of emotional crises, usu ally centering on, some arfgelic do gooder who lives in a small town," she said. Work of Genius '(But keeping the action within that frame and still turning out a radio show which has millions of people hanging on their radios every day requires nothing short of genius. "Any writer who has to do that indefinitely should find almost any other form of Writing feasy." '" 1 An indication that it isn't some thing just anybody can do is the extremely generous paycheck a good radio serial writer draws. Miss Leslie originated the radio perennial serial, , "A Date, With Judy," eight years ago and has written it ever since. She only has one show a week and she doesn't have to mold it to suit the spon sors, but it still isn't easy. Besides writing gther movie stories.

(International) Author Reaches His Goal By PATRICIA CLARY United Press Staff Correspondent HOLLYWOOD ' (UP) An author whose youthful aim was collaborat ing with George Gershwin has real ized his goal in spite of Gershwin's death. Gershwin died in 1937, when Alan Jay Lerner was a college freshman and before he'd done any writing. But now he is doing an original screen play to go with GershwiiVs musical suite, "An American in Paris." , After Gershwin's death, Lerner almost gave up his ambition to write musical shows. He collab orated on two of Harvard's Hasty Pudding shows, but after gradua tion he went to work writing for radio. .; His first Broadway musical he turned out in 1943, after he met composer Fredrick Loewe. Called "What's Up," and starring Jimmy Savo, it suryived two months. Two years later they turned out another musical, "Day Before Spring," which ran seven months and was bought for movies. But their biggest hit has been "Briga doon," which ran on Broadway two years and still is showing on the road and in London. Foreign Showings "We have three more companies opening in December," he added, "one in Australia, one in South Africa, and one touring England." Hollywood discovered Lerner after "Brigadoon." He did an orig inal libretto for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer entitled "Royal Weddjng," which will star Fred Astaire. "Two days after I finished it," he said, "I got a telegram from Ira Gershwin. He said Metro had hired him to write some lyrics for the POULTRYMEN GIVEN POLICE POWERS IN COLONIAL DAYS BOSTON (UP) A law dating from Colonial days gives Massa chusetts poultrymen unique police powers.
