CONTRACT CANCELLED
Officials of the Hal Roach studio announce they have cancelled their contract with the comedian, Stan Laurel, despite the fact that it called for two more pictures. Stan worked harmoniously! with the Roach studio for eleven years* but nothing seems to have gone well with] him since his divorce from his wife, Ruth, and his subsequent marriages—three of them —to the Russian singer, Uliana. He walked out before his last picture was completed, and was not on hand when another was scheduled to start, so the studio felt they were justified in calling off the contract. Roach is going ahead with plans to team his screen partner, Oliver Hardy, with comedian Harry Langdon in thei future.. •* • ‘ J.
