George Walsh 8 Comeback.

ONCE the idol Of millions, George
~ Walsh, virile movie hero of more
than 100 pictures, today is talking
his way back to screen recognition.
Like many Of the silent stars, Walsh
favorites of yesterday forge ahead
and others drop by the wayside when
sound came to the films.
Hollywood is beginning to hear
me-" grinned Walsh, whose best break
since loud-speakers were turned on
in the theaters is being given him by
Director Leo McCarey in Mae Vests
new Paramount picture, Belle OF
the Nineties."
"I suppose it was just one Of those
things-every one taking for granted
I would do all right, yet no one taking
the time to ind out whether could
talk when sound upset pictures.
Fact Is, I played on the stage
before I ever hit pictures. And
what's more, I played heavies and
character parts before ! was changed
into q leading man.
Lead parts are all right, but pro-
ducers evidently figure that once a
leading man can't play leads any
more, he's through. That is one OF
the tragedies of the business. have
always wanted to play character
parts, and the heavier the better"
Walsh, who still possesses the
physique and features which made
him the hero of audiences for more
than Is years, is cast as the king in
the royal burlesque skit Miss West
has injected into her naughty 90s
drama.

He has steeled himself into the school
