Imagine having a big, husky giant saunter up to you lalsurely and say, "I guess you don't remember me, but I'm the roy you bayoneted during the battle of Premzy!" What would you do? Would you greet him like a long lost brother? Or would you run?
Such an experience actually lap- pened, recently to Alexander Kahle, Will Rogers' pet cameraman during the Alming of one of the sequences of the latter's intent Fox starring pic-1 ture, "Ambassador Bill," which opens nt the King's Theatre next Sunday. Lahle was a sergeant in the German during the war, and the other arniy man had been a Russian captain.
Such incidents, are by no means rare in Hollywood. It is veritably a refuge for the "once-grent" of all the nation of the earth. An CX-
president of Mexico, for instance, now teaches singing to aspiring warblers of the screen. An ex-ballerina, who once ranked almost with Paylown, is glad for occasional bit parts and extra work. An ex-Austrian ambas sador in a dirvelor of "quicktie" ple turen. And no it goen.

In "The Beggar Student" an udup- tation of the Viennese operetta Curl Millocker opening on Sunday at the Queen's, Shirley Dale plays the leading role. She is one of the few lucky girls who have literally won fame "overnight," for though she has had considerable, stage and operatic experience she had never appeared on the screen until a British Lion off- einl invited her to the studio for a test.
Miss Dale has an excellent singing And speaking voice, and is blessed with more than her share of good looks. She now lives in Batterien, but was born in the Fiji Islen.
