The correct answer is "about the return of the so call"

Key Points 

  • "so-called" will replace "so call"
  • "So call" is the wrong usage.
  • Let's look at the meaning of the phrase:
    • So-called: used to show that something or someone is commonly designated by the name or term specified.
    • Example: Western Countries belonging to the so-called Paris club.
Hence, the correct sentence is "Rumors have been flying in recent months about the return of the so-called Parthenon Marbles to Greece, but a new statement by the British Museum has put hope in the hearts of those who would like to see the marble sculptures back in Athens."
