Who Paws Here.

DIRECTOR WILLIAM wYLER's
habit of making eight and 10
takes of every scene recently cost him
$40 in three days during the filming
of "Jezebel" at she Warner Bros.
studios.
Wyler and the "Jezebel'' company
have been filming exterior scenes at
the Warner ranch near Calabasas.
Among the extra players are 81 Negro
children. Recently, Wyler used these
children in a scene for the first time.
They were supposed to swarm all over
three carriages and remove the bag
gage from the baggage racks. At
first the children were listless and
would show no enthusiasm at all.
Wyler talked to them. LOOK" he
said. "You get the baggage, see?
And then they give you tips"
The children understood that. The
next take was perfect. They showed
the proper spirit.
Fine" Wyler told them.
where's the tips?" one OF the
pickaninnies asked
Wyler gave each one nickle. And
since then, on every scene, the little
boys refuse to act unless they get their
tips. As Wyler averages seven or
eight takes to . scene, the cost has
mounted. Wyler is beginning to be-
ueve that direction, despite its high
salary, is an expensive business.
