Lamarr Wanted To Play

HEDY LAMARR, the

screen's "Glamour Girl" who has made three films during her short stay in Hollywood, became involved early this winter in a boxing match with her employers, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

Hedy led in round one by announcing that she pro- posed to tour in Oscar Wilde's stage play, "Sa- lome." M.G.M. carne back at her in round two with a court order which restrain- ed her from doing any such thing.

Round three found Hedy still fighting grimly, either for an increase in salary (from G$500 a week to G$6,000 a week) or the cancellation of her contract. The match was fought out round by round, but Hedy is now back in the M.G.M. studios.
