Clark Gable is not returning to work in September. He says he may never make another picture, which would be a terrible blow, not only to his studio, but to all his many fans.

Said Clark: “I saw so much death and suffering overseas that the movies will never appeal to me again, unless I can do something off the beaten path; something that is not conventional, but is important and significant. Otherwise, I don’t want to return to the screen. I don’t need the money. I’m not rich but I can live on my very little ranch and be happy.”

MGM already has announced “Lucky Baldwin” and several other pictures for Clark. (As we know, “Lucky Baldwin” was never made.)
