ART LESSONS FOR SCREEN ROLES
Sally Eilers and Preston Foster had to take several drawing lessons in order to go through their routine in some sequences of RKO Radio’s “Everybody's Doing It.” a State attraction next week. Both are commercial artists in the picture, and camera close-ups show them sketching models from life. That could, of course, be faked, but the- stars insisted that they do it themselves, and studio professional artists were called in to instruct them. In one scene Foster draws a complicated puzzle on a bedroom wall, in full view of the audience. He studied assiduously before he could draw it sufficiently well to make it look like a professional job. Foster’s stand-in and close personal friend, Harry Mayo, is an artist in his own right, and gave the actor many tips.
