SEWING TROUSERS IN FRENCH PRISON
DOTY'S TASK OF HARD LABOR

Albertvillc, Savoic. France, Dec. II
up Hopeful that his descrtcr's
sentence of eight years in the gloom
Of French military prison will be
terminated before it runs its course,
Bennett J. Doty Of Biloxi, Miss, who
was Colbert Clare" Of the Foreign
Legion. remains cheerful and SEEM
ingly courageous.
Two worries" were confessed to n
correspondent of The Associated
Press. His fingers are too slow in
sew sewing army trousers, the "hard
labor" to which he was sentenced.
and he's afraid the folks back home
will think cowardice. instead of
homesic kness, prompted his flight
from warfare in the arid Syrian de-
scrt.
Is Model Prisoner
Doty was sentenced by q French
court martial at Damascus on August
10 last to the military ptnitentiary
here for his attempt to leave the
French Foreign Legion when serving
on the soil Of an alien land. There,
under the name of Gilbert Clare Of
Memphis, Tenn. he had fought the
Druse rebels in the campaign before
Soucita and the mountains Of the
Houran.
Pcrched high in the Alps. in the
shadow of Mont Blanc, the military
pcnitentiary Of Albcrtvillc, overlook
ing beautiful valley surrounded by
snow capped peaks, has IA forbidding
and gloomy aspect.

Captain Besancon, commandant of
the institution. "IIis army record is
splendid and he is fine boy"
A little thinner shd somewhat pal

uniform. long brown coat, flap cap.

sharp contrast from the proud soldier
whom the correspondent had visited
IN the citadel at Damascus last June.
"Nloralc" Not Impaired
HIS morale is unimpaired, however.
and he greeted his visitor with evil
dent pleasure.

MOVIE BEAUTY
CREDITED TO
CAMERA MAN

Hollywood, Cal. Dec. 17.-(R-
Faces in the movies sometimes are
more beautiful than in the flesh, and
credit for the change is due the cam
eraman, says Byron Haskins, cinema
tographer
The .ttractivcncss Of mos. persons
is based upon their fine competitions
and coloring, the Warner Brothers.
cameranran explains. When the cam
era reduces their faces to terms of
black and white they often are unat-
tractivc. A bad complexion can be
concealed beneath makeup, but little
can be done for irregular and UNI
symmetrical features. The smallest
bumps and hollows make shadows.
Hazel Eyes Film Nest
Because Of the great photographic
activity Of blue light and the negligi-
bic activity of red light hazel eyes
with light rings around the pupils
photograph the best" Haskins de-
clarcs, although in life they arc not
usually as attractive as brown orl
blue. Hazel eyes show the most
character and expression. Brown
eyes photograph too dark for express
sion, blue eyes too light, although
the effcct,o of the latter may be modi-|
fled BY the use of filters and ma
gcnta light.
when colors arc absent, the shad-
ows east by the slightest bumps or ir-
Irregularities of the face are very pro-
nounced. Many of the players most
attractive on the screen appeal to on0l
as unusual rather than beautiful
when seen off screen. Their faces
often have decided style about them.
Feature by feature they may be farl
from perfect, but there is something
about the tout ensemble on the screen
that is very attractive.
Brunette Men Preferred
"In the filming of character actors,
the cameraman's problem is often just
reversed. Here he must paint in with
lights and makeup, trials. sufferings
triumphs and ecstacics which the ac-
tor has perhaps never really exper-
fenced"
Brunette men and blonde women
have the best chances in motion pic
lures, asserts John Nickolaus, head |
of Metro-Goldwyn- Mayors cameras de- |
partment.
"A haired man." he said,
photographs more strongly. His
outlines stand out, and thus, in al
man, the dark types give an express
sion of strength and virility. Also, |
blue eyes photograph gray, and in q |
man this gives, in most cases, lack
of expression.
"A woman is different. Her face
does not have to show strength and
character, and blonde fluffiness lends
her a charm which in man is hardly
to be desired"

"Soup is ready, Clare" said the
little Blue Devil sauntcring up.
The big steel and iron gate swung
noisily upon its heavy hinges and
Clare disappeared into the sombre
prison. Leaning his face against the
bars Clare shouted as farewell:
"This is great life. if you don't

the most prolific cause Of legal
separation "the light oak piano or
