LUISE RAINIER LIKES
HER NEW TYPE ROLE
In THE BIG CITY,
By LUISE RAINIER
Written for the United Press)

HOLLYWOOD, July 16. CUP
What relief it is to be myself
For two years | have been play
ing other people, wearing either
dirty or extremely elaborate
clothes, being restricted to the
limitations of other periods ano
countries. Now l can breathe!
In big City" | am playing q
simple, normal girl, a Rumaniar
immigrant who comes to Ameri'
ca and marries New York tax
driver. 1t is a sweet and simple
story, and to be truthful it is fan
more enjoyable than anything
have done in pictures so far.
Can you realize what relief
it must be from the months OF
sun and dust in 1.-THE Good
EARTH" Where CRIME and sad
ness chung to one long after the
last scenes were "shot" at night
Imagine being able to shake your
head gaily as you walk, instead OF
having to walk as though a book
were on your he'd as ! had to dc
with the elaborate coiffures and
tight bodices in "The Emperor's
Candlesticks."
But that is the job of an act
|ress-to bring to people the dif-
ferent characters of the world
And so, | am not complaining. 1t
has been fortunate that they al
lowed me to portray so many dit.
ferent types of girls. Each OF
them as a new experiences. Act
ing brings this to a person, and
that is why it is fascinating pro-
fession.
When I first thought Of
career, there were several things
I might have done-write or
paint or act. / chose acting be-
cause it seemed the way to ex-
press what felt and sow. You
see, I was impatient. / did not
want to wait for years. Acting
seemed the quickest way. And
it was never hard for me. | had
experienced many d fferent
things. Working this way is sat
isfactory, because | know by IN
stinct what might take years to
learn from experience.
Even though portraying people
other than myself is exhilirating,
it is fun to let down and be just
plain Luise Rainier. The dresses
| wear in big City" are similar
to those would wear in real he.
In fact, l had white sports coat
copied in black for one OF the
scenes. And my hair flies around
in the film, unruly as 1t Is any
day when Pm not working. -
Now that have been in Holly
wood for more than two years, II
seems about time to leave and
get a fresh viewpoint. Not perm
anently. But my mother IS IN
Switzerland, and there are many
friends in Vienna whom / have
not seen in so long that it IS best
that | return. 1t is never good
to stay in one place too long a
time, so after a few months IN
Eupore, / shall be eager to, return
to Hollywood, which has become
my permanent home.

MILLIONS BEING
PAID BY XMAS
SAVINGS Clubs
In Milford Three Clubs
Have Distributed Over
$102,200 Recently.
CAULK CLUB BIGGEST
Amount Saved Here This
Year S11,200 More Than
Last Year.

Residents of Milford who for the
Dast fifty weeks .have been practic-
ing thrift and each week laying
aside a sum for the Christmas Saw
ings Fund conducted by the local
banks and the L. d. Caulk Company

the Milford Trust Company. the
First National Bank and Trust Com
pany and the Savings Fund Club OF
The l.. D. Caulk Company, all of
which have been in existence for
several years. This is an increase
of $11,200 from the disbursements
made by these three clubs last year.
and indicates that the idea Is still
popular in Milford. In the State a
total of almost s1,320,000 will be
distributed this season.
The first savings clubs on the
were started several
years ago at Salisbury, Md. The gen.
eral public eagerly accepted the
method to systematically save for
the holiday season. Shortly thereaf-
ter The l.. D. Caulk Company con-
ceived the idea of conducting a saw
Ings fund for their employees. The
plan was successful. and outsiders
were allowed to join the club. The
Milford Trust Company later took
up the idea. and they, too. were sue
,essful and secured many depositors
iherefrom. A few years later the
First National Bank and Trust COM
Dany started its club and each year
has shown a satisfactory increase
IN the number of persons who have
oined its club.
This year the Caulk Savings Club

nate amount of $4,000 to its men,
This is an increase Of ov-
y $4,000 over last years figures,
