CONFESSIONS OF A PRESS
AGENT
BY JOHN PEERE MILES
Pinch-hitting for Henry
Sutherland)

HOLLYWOOD, June T. QD -
Garbo's inarticulation, which Fore
ed her studio to place her in Sc
cluSion and which resulted in the
most prolonged of all ballyhoo
stunts, has been the envy of all
leading ladies. Those who have
tried to ape her silences developed
flat tires in the process.
Before the Garbo miracle, the
ladies of the screen were extremely
voluble. Pola Negri, the first to
parade temperament as an asset,
would talk to all comers, even high
school journalists. She net only
talked, but she put on shows for
them. In the midst of an interview
she would suddenly leave her chair
to hurl choice invictive upon her
director Then there was the time
when she threw a stool at an as
sistant director who annoyed her.
Her chief purpose, apart from
acting, was to get her name in
print. More SO than any current
star, she realized the importance of
publicity. Her career was a con-
tinuous procession of mad-cap deeds
followed almost Immediately by ex-
hibitions of remorse and tenderness.
AT a time when her popularity
seemed to be ebbing, she devised a
glamorous chase of Rudolph Valen-
tino and Charles Chaplin With
mathematical precision she so ar
ranged the stunt that it appeared
one day she was engaged to Chaplin
and the next to Valentino The
press may have been mixed up en-
tangling her alliances, but not Negri
she knew only too we'll what she
was doing.
She waited until a few weeks be-
fore her most crucial picture was
to be released before she sprang
her most successful scheme. Learn
ing that Valentino was arriving
from New York, she decided to meet
his train at Albuquerque. News of
this hurried flight to meet the most
discussed actor the screen has yet
known was allowed to leak" out
with melodramatic whisperings.
This trip was so built up with
mystery and insinuation, that it
became the hottest story of the
day. Was she going to marry Valen-
tino and throw Chaplin over? Was
she trying to upset the newly es-
tablished Hays office rules of moral
conduct? Every news service want
! ed the answer to those questions.
Imperial Valley press., 1937-06-07
Strolls Thru Hollywood

Paramount studio, which employ
ed her, was worried. The executive
heads wired her to be good and
come home, but Pola paid no at
tention. She met Valentino, came
back with him by train, and when
asked if she planned to marry, she
only shook her head wisely and
invited eWsmen to write their own
story.
AS a result Miss Negri'S picture
prospered. but the ladies from Main
street (who went to see her picture
lust the Same) started a chorus of
protests and Miss Negri's star began
to dim.
She had numerous loquacious sue
cessors. including Jetta Goudal, who
once refused to go on for d. w.
Griffith because the director would
MT buy her a $3.50 lace handker-
chief to drop in five-second scene.
The property man had thought a
50-cent handkerchief would serve
the purpose just as well since 1t
wouldn't show anyway.
But the success of Garbo's sphinx
like retirement served to quench
the vociferations of the tempera-
mental ladies. Marlene Dietrich
was the first to ape the Swedes
"shut-mouth" policy, but it didn't
work. Carlo was sphinx-like "a
hours a day; Miss Dietrich only
during working hours. Instead OF
retiring at night like Carlo she
would crawl out of character after
sundown and appear in public places
with a variety of men.
This false note in a patented
stunt, was too obviously an imita-
ton of Carlo, and imitation of an
other personality, so far as Holly
wood is concerned, is poor business
in ballyhoo sense Miss Dietrich
didn't see it that way, but she really
was flattering Garbo.
More recently still, was Claudette
Colbert's siege of silence. She too
came under the category of usurping
the sacred property of Garbo and
the press and her multitude OF fans
resented this conduct Because, un-
der this policy, she was hard to
get to she earned the reputation
of being temperamental. 1t has
been proved too often that tenn
perament may mean million dol
lars to a foreign actress but pro-
fessional suicide to an American
girl. Miss Colbert woke up just
in time.
But katharine Hepburn didn't
and that's story that will serve
for years as a lesson to native-borr
girls who usurp characters that be-
long to Others,

Citizens Protest
Ban on Showing
OF Spanish Film

VACAVILLE, Calf, June 7. UP)
Citizens of Spanish descent living
in Vaca Valley planned to hold a

ties entered and broke up the meet
ing in a melee that resulted in a

it was up to congress to tighten

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June T..
W.P)-The American Medical asso-
citation, opening it's 88th annual
meeting, listed as its No. / problem
today the question. What TO do
about the thousands of men and
women who are too poor to pay for
physicians services?"
Charles Gordon Heyd, associa-
ton president, presented the fol-
lowing formula and asked the ITS
members of the house of delegates
if they were prepared to accept it.;
Il. That every practitioner be-
lieves that the proved INDECENT is
entitled to medical services free of
all charges and that the cost of
this service should be paid by taxes
levied on the general population
-. The principle that indigence
is a local problem and should be
handled in the area in which it
arises.
"3. The extension of medical serv-
ices TO the indigents in their homes
and the doctors offices with re-
muneration to the physicians on a
capitation basis under the direction
of the county medical society.
q. The certification of indigents,
fairly, sincerely, honestly and SYM
pathetically by the application of
standards of eligibility, by central
bureaus under the department of
welfare. with proper representation
from the county medical society.
"5. A medical census of the indi-
gents, to learn what our load is
and how to take care of it.
IS. A limitation on the number
of patients that may attend any
one clinic.
~. The payment of a fair remu-
neration to all physicians working
in outpatient departments or CIV
ing medical services to the indi-
gents in their homes.
"8. The unequiyocal opposition to
all forms of compulsory health in
surance." .#.
Heyd explained that another ma
jor problem confronting the medi-
can profession was the "catastro-
phic illness"-the emergency that is
expensive and for which no ordinary
family can budget.
AS the delegates assembled, they
witnessed a demonstration of a new
surgical technique, known as "psy-
cho-surgery," which, it is claimed,
alleviates mental ills of humans,
such as anxiety, depression, insom-
mia, suicidal ideas, delusions, mel
ancholia, nervous indigestion and
hysterical paralysis and transforms
wild animals into gentle creatures.

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON ]

AuvellLure IS the very breath or boys life. And he will get it, be sure, if not first hand, through the medium of books and movies.
 This spirit is so strong in every human being, man, woman and child, that constant repression seeks an outlet in vicarious thrill. If we can't do the things we dream of, we must go through the sensations of others doing them. This explains the pull of the movies. We demand the magic of the unattainable.
 So don't blame the boy or girl who retires- into a book, every chance he gets, or begs for money for a show.
 However, as opportunity for youth- full adventure narroWS, and our children cannot longer roam into the deep woods and canoe to pirate hulks upstream, the tendency is to overdo the dream.
 Baking at Realism
 Here we are preaching realism living life first hand instead of second hand, and at the same time we are steadily denying children the right to 1t.
 In many cases it can't be helped. Cities are no place to turn children loose on their own, or considering the hazards today of cars, the coun- try either And then, most parents in this day of lax law and disorder fear to let children out of their sight.
