BOY STAR’S CONTRACT EXPIRES
Freddie Bartholomew’s contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer has expired and will not be renewed. Freddie is standing this shock well. “I don’t mind,” he said to an interview-
er recently. “But it’s the worry to poor Aunt Cis that gets me down.” The lad has £12,500 in his bank, but Miss Bartholomew says it will all have to go in income tax unless Freddie is signed by another studio. At the moment he receives £25,000 a year from Metro, which is a lot of money to do without at short notice.
