Most of us get by on as little
physical activity as possible. We
sleep eight hours out Of the day
and sit for IA hours.
This sort of life makes the hip
area the logical parking place for
any extra calories, and even the
girl who limits her calorie quota
strictly to her requirements must
beware of the Jumps and bulges
that will mar the hipline Of nor
NAL weight.
1t takes daily exercise, 365 days
out of the year, to cope with the
hipline, so here are some exercises
that will make you supple and
keep you young:
Exercise
Position: Lying flat on the back,
arms straight out from the Shout
ders, palms down. Hold the feet
parallel throughout the exercise
and try to have neck and Shout
The Washington times., 1936-10-30
Exercise III

Position: Lying flat on the back,
arms straight out from the Shout
derS, feet together.
Movement: Hold the left leg
straight on the floor, and, without
bending or turning the knee of the
right leg, kick sideward. AL move
ment in this exercise is at the hip
joint and alternate legs are kicked.
The leg is kept close to the floor
in kicking. This exercise makes
flexible muscles and discourages
fatty deposits on the side Of hip
and thigh.
You may prefer to do your kick
ing while standing, and in that
case try this variation of an old
kicking stunt:
Exercise Nv
Position: With the left hand
grasp a chairback for support.
Stand with feet together, abdo-
men, chest and chin up.
Movement: Flex the right knee

lst View Of HOLLYWOOD

It seems we always remember
"firSts" . How well I remember
my first glimpse Of Hollywood.
James Montgomery Flagg, who is
one Of the grandest guys in the
world. suggested that I try the
films. Il took a boat to New
orleans. and a chair car into
Los Angeles. sitting up for what
seemed like 300 years Holly
wood Boulevard was really a gliS-
tening white way that night.
the electric lights were rejecting
in the rain on the sidewalks and
the streets. I didn't see any
movie stars that first night. nor
the next day. nor after that for
many days.
The first time 1 was actually
in studio-that is, beyond the
front gate-waS when l had on
my oldest clothes and a man
showed broom in my hand and
said, go up there and sweep
off the tops of those stages"
/ could lean over the edge and
see people down below me going
to work on the stages / was
sweeping later / met Clau-
dette Colbert, who was one Of
those I saw. she doesn't know
that / once waved broom over
her head
The first time I saw myself on
the screen was not so pleasant,
however. / decided I was going
to give up picture work. seeing
yourself gives you a panicky feel
ing like riding in crowded sub
way car the first time.
Every one should ride in a sub
Way car at least once it debates
the ego, among other effeGts that
it has. Hollywood, Etortunate-
ly, doesn't have subways. from
subWays to elevated, all in one
jump. I'll never forget the
drunk I saw stumble in the path
of an elevated train in New York
one night "a neWsboy dragged
him out of the way just in the
nick Of time. then the drunk be-
rated the lad who had saved his
life for getting his clothes dirty
Buying the ticket for New
York. trying to pick out a
name to replace my real name,
Joseph Kenneth ShOvlin. i
didn't think it would look we'll
in lights. Il thought of my
grandfather, Michael Whalen,
and his kindness to us when
we were children. II got on
the train in Philadelphia as Joe
ShOvlin. and off the train in
New York as Michael Whalen.

Movement: Rock the lower part
of the body from one side to the

burgers in Hollywood because they

The day Daryl Zanuck gave me
my contract at Twentieth Cen
