NUISANCE VISITORS
PLAGUE * A T HOLLY W O O D. Myrna Loy almost jumped a foot into the air when a lady visitor on her set suddenly grabbed her arm, pinched it black and blue, and then explained. “Oh. I just wanted to touch you!” No wonder the studios are getting together to ban visitors to the sets. There are more of them this year than ever. Here's the sort of thing that has been happening lately: Clark Gable’s picture. ‘‘Comrade X " drew such a large crowd that shooting had to be suspended for two hours while the set was cleared to make way for the actors. And the Norma She;:: er picture. “Escape.” charged Metro's publicity department £360 for alleged time wasted due to visitors chattering on the set. One of them pocketed a cigarette case used by Taylor in the picture --as a souvenir. But it had already appeared in several shots.’ and was wanted for another. And the production was held up while they searched the town for one like it!
