MOVIE ACTORS WORK IN 110 DEGREES TEMPERATURE ON DESERT.Five hundred actors and technicians from the Paramount studio In Hollywood crossed the burning sands, while they made a Sahara desert picture.Working in a daily tomperaturo averaging 110 degrees, the company filmed scenes for Paramount’s Beau Sabrour in Red Rock Canyon on the ..Mojave desert, two hundred miles from the movie centre.Ice packs were used to prevent the camera from becoming too hot and injuring the celluloid film.This spot on the Mojave is the only one yet found that duplicates the Ibra Pass on the Sahara desert. This pass is a narrow defile in the midst of rock, sage brush, and sand dunes. The Mojave location was selected by Lieut. Louis Van den Ecker, technical advisor to director John Waters, who was for seven years a member of the Foreign Legion, stationed in the locale of the Beau Sabruer story.Gary Cooper plays the title role, and Evelyn Brent, Norah Beery, William Powell.
