Authentic to the last sack of rice, Elstree has become a mud-and-plaster copy of the ancient valled Chinese city of Wangoh--g. It's all for 'The inn of the sixth happiness' the Ingrid Bergman film being made by twentieth Century -Fox, and it's all to cut the cost of going to Formosa, as was originally planned. Yesterday Miss Bergman dressed up in Chinese fashion rode through the dirt-deep shanty-town streets on mule. The set, the largest built outside Hollywood, covers 500,000 square feet.
