Dancers Wanted
With Show Boat and Caruso piling up record grosses across the nation, Hollywood's moviemakers are scrambling to get aboard the new bandwagon. By the end of this year the major studios alone will have produced 39 musicals (16 more than last year), plus a dozen more pictures with a yeasty leavening of singing and dancing. Among them: An American in Paris (with music from George Gershwin's suite of the same name), Texas Carnival, Belle of New York. One result of the new trend: Hollywood is running so short of dancing talent that the Central Casting Agency is canvassing all local dance schools, promising movie auditions to students between 18 and 28.
