THIS DIRECTOR
DOUBLE TN
BRASS

Howard Hawks. Fox Films dI.
rector of "a Girl in Every Port, |"
finds directing much more tasci.
mating than writing. His current
picture opens at the Fox Theater
today.
Hawks, originally a writer.
about two years ago started as .
director. Since that time he has
been directing his own stories. Sc
lecting the types he wants for the
various parts, and surrounding
them with the atmosphere that his
imagination conceived.
1T is like ilIustra ting your own
story" he explains. When YOU
get an idea, you naturally visualize
your characters and their SUR
roundings, and. of course, when
you can put them on the screen
yourself they are much more natu-
raj and really act outAyour ideas
instead Of speaking them through
the written work"
