DEANNA DURBIN.
TO APPEAR AS JENNY LIND CHALLENGE TO GRACE MOORE Deanna Durbin will be challenging Grace Moore before she is seventeen. Her screen mentors, producer Pasternak and director Koster, are preparing a story about the early life of Jenny Lind. Jenny Lind, Sweden's nightingale, was brought to America by circus-king Barnum and became famous both for her singing an-d her charities. You may remember Grace Moore’s debut in the story—or you may prefer to forget it. Hollywood doesn’t usually care about digging up former failures, but the Pastemak-Koster-Durbin combine hasn’t put a foot or a note wrong yet.
