Bowles, filmland's leading back
seat driver, probably has account
ed for more audience thrills than

It's 30-year-old Bobby's job to
drive the camera car at M-G-M
for those fast-moving shots of
capering horses, automobile &C
cidents and all other manner of
action.
Bobby, a former dirt track
driver in Texas, believes after
seven years with the camera car
that the most dangerous work is
running shots" with horses. be-
cause nobody knows what horse
will do.
The safest, he has found, is
skipping across a railroad track
in front of a limited-for the
speeds of the train and the car
can be controlled so that engine
misses auto by a few inches.
And the most difficult shots,
added Bobby, are when going 70
to 80 miles an hour through traf-
fic without a siren. His last ex-
perience with that kind of a shot
was in Marie Dresler's "Her
Sweetheart"
Concealed in an old flivver, his
vision obscured, Bobby had to
drive through traffic and then
crash into a telephone pole. Po-
lice had cleared a narrow lane
but when he got to the last cor,
ner a motorist who was unaware
picture was being taken drove
