Joe Steps Out

1t seems only a few years ago
that this Scribbler gave young Joe
Cochran his first press notice. 1t
was when. as a precocious kid, he
ambled on the National stage and
sang. Eyes, We Have No Ba-
nanas." The occaiosn was the an
nual dance recital of the Cora
Shreve pupils and Joe's sister,
Cecilia, was starring for the
Cochran family.
Early in the past season I real
lied the boy had grown older
when I heard a booming like the
Battle Of Verdun coming from the
orcheStra pit of the National
Theater. It was young Joe sit
ting in on his first night as drum
and traps artist for Chris Arth'S
musicians. The leader of the
Deuces Wild Collegiate Orchestra
was making his presence known
on E Street, but soon he learned
that the Arth fiddle was entitled
to half chance.
4mpfeSSar1O SteEu Cochran was
munching his honey dew melon
Tuesday morning when young Joe
nonchalantly ambled down to
breakfast and announced, Pop,
I'm married" Then Papa Steve
proceeded to register surprise bet
ter than any Of his stock actors
could do it and ask more queS-
tions than a district attorney. In
the end he said ."bless you my
children" packed his bag and de-
parted for the scheduled vacation
in New Hampshire with William
Harryman Rapley.
AS for young Joe he had a
heavy date to do a John Gilbert
for the press photographers.

ONLY ASKSF0R
:. CHANCE TO
DO STUFF
By ANDREW r. KELLEY

Most of the formal interviews
with star which find their way
into print provide pretty stereo-
typed and wooden stuff. When
these youthful Hollywood for-
tunates reach the point where
they open pay envelope with
$1,000 a week or more in it the
majority are prone to don the
high hat and develop something
which, is generally called tenn
perament." The grand manner
creeps into their speech and they
like to discuss arty things with a
broad A.
What a pleasure, then to pick
up, a published interview with
such grand trouper as Marie
DreSsler and find it packed with
common sense. The DresSler can
spot most of the picture stars a
pair of aces in a five-card deal and
then beat them at acting. Said
Marie. in talking to Regina Crewe,
motion picture editor of the New
York American:
ME q star? Not on your
life! Those stars they have in
Hollywood go out too quickly.
Just let me upset the plot twice
in every picture I'm in, and I'll
be satisfied. That's fll / ask.
Listen, why should / be a
star? Stars last two years,
maybe q little longer, and then
what can they do? Their pride
won't let them 60 back to minor
SrOlls-and they're out of pic
lures and out of the money. No
thank you, I'd rather be q big
bit player with a chance Of get
ting the laughs.
"These flapnerS they've got

If you can still laugh. But I've
been on the stage forty years,
and here am working and
playing like a horse, and love it.
THE main trouble with the
young people nowadays is they
don't know how to wait. When
something is open, they say,
please send me the Script and

TvEN AT a summer hotel where men were
IL scarce, he couldn't make hit with girls.
They liked his looks. They would have liked
him, too, but for one fault they couldn't excuse.
Of course he didn't suspect the real reason.
And nobody told him. People hate to hint at

Later he found out the truth and the simple
