DEANNA DURBIN
Deanna Durbin, the gifted young star who soon makes her film debut in Universal's "Three Smart Girls," was fourteen years old on December 4. Deanna Durbin's next picture will be a musical interest story especially written for her. Hans Kraly, one of the screen's top writers, has been engaged to write the story and has already started work on it. Kraly is the author of more than two score screen plays, among them such outstanding successes as "Broadway Gondolier," "Private Lives," "The Last of Mrs. Cheney," and "The Patriot." The latter received the Academy award for writing. Universal , considered Kraly the ideal writer for the assignment, for he was .an opera singer before he turned his talents to \ writing, and thus is thoroughly familiar with both the scope and limi- i tations of his story. As with "Three , Smart Girls," . the picture is to be E directed by Henry Koster and pro- : > duced by Joseph Pasternak. ,
