FILM COURT CASE.
FREDDIE BARTHOLOMEW’S FUTURE.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11
His aunt, Miss Myllicent Bartholomew, has filed an answer to the suit brought for a restraining order against Freddie Bartholomew, the young film actor. She alleges Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer engineered the smuggling of Freddie from England in 1934 because his proposed employment in the movies violated tfie British child labour laws. She chums that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer promised a new contract if the film “David Copperfield” was successful, and adds: “Freddie was offered 7500 dollars a week by rival companies.”
