CHARLES RAY BUYS
.LONG-DESIRED PLAY,
"TAILOR-MADE MAN"

When Mary Pickford sold Charles
Ray the screen rights to "A Tailor
Made Man." 1t was the first time In
cinema history that one star sold
another a story coveted by both.
Says Ray, "No one can ever say
nomer, for Miss Pickford sold me a
story which she knew had long
been the apple of my eye, and with
out making a cent of profit.
Several times in the past-before
"a Tailor-Made Man" passed into
Miss Pickford's hands-Charles Ray
had negotiated for the purchase or
the play, but had always en-
countered one stumbling block or
another.
From the moment he saw the
stage version he wanted to enact
the role of John Paul Bart, but had
given up all hope of obtaining the
play, when 10. and beholG!-no
sooner had he signed with the
United Artists than Miss Pickford
offered it to him.
This was a rare stroke of for
tune. for Ray had been diligently
casting about for a story betting
his initial United Artists produc-
tion-and was naturally desirous
of securing a vehicle that would
enlist his complete enthusiasm.
Therefore the opportunity to star
in "A Tailor Made Man" is a huge
psychological factor-to the entire
advantage of the thoroughly elated
Ray.
