How They Select
1923 Extra Girls

The time has passed when an
extra girl in the movies can get
work by simply saying that she
used to be chorus girl, accord
ing to Director Robert B. Nc
Intype. Directors no longer will
use the hard faced, STACEY type,
he says. They want refined girls
from good homes-girls used to
pretty clothes, society parties who
fit naturally into the atmosphere
OF lavish scene, Mcintyre says.
Specifications Of the 1923 extra
Agirl are: Refinement, good looks,
youth. ability to wear clothes and
adaptabilitty to luxurious sur
