Aubrey Smith as Lord Capulet, Ralph Forbes as Paris, Violet Temple Cooper as Lady Capulet, Henry Kolker as Friar Laurence, Andy Devine as Peter, Conway Tearle as the Prince of Ver- ona, are others in the list of notable players.

Temperament RearS Its Ugly Head
 As Budding Film Stars Go UpStage
Fresh Little Darling" Borrow a Page From
 "Grand Danes"
BY PAUL HARRISON NEA Service Stan Correspondent

Hollywood Temperament is sup posed to be form of emotional ln- stability, or whimsy, or general cussedness, reserved for grand danes of the theater such as Mrs. Patrick Campbell; or for foreign movie actresses who feel profession ally obligated to put on an act.
 But temperament seems a little out of place among the fresh little darlings of the domestic screen. Especially when the major favor ties of the movies-the people who have arrived without benefit oi tantrums, the Crawfords and Har- lows, the Shearers and Bette Davises, the Lombards and Stan wycks-are such regular guys.
 Don't Be Silly
 Now take Jean Arthur. Nearly everybody admires her work and applauded her success after couple of discouraging experiences in the flickers. And then what happens? Miss Arthur goes upstage. So much so, indeed, that her sound stages are closed to the press and visitors Miss Arthur does not grant inter- views during production.
 From her seclusion, Miss Arthur has sent out word that when her current picture is finished she will grant two interviews.
 I do not know how Miss Arthur
 arrived at that arbitrary figure, but it would be all right with me if she granted only one-half of l per cent of one interview.
 I shall always remember an ob- servation made by an actress named Joan Crawford about a year ago
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-05-21

She laO DeeIl III. OIlt WdS tlIc hAlS' she was about to begin what was almost sure to be a long and try ing scene. Somebody said there were couple more correspondents outside and would she mind awful ly if they came in?
 She said, Don't be silly! When I get so I can't work in front of newspapermen I'm going to quit the business"
 Fan Mail Dividends
 Take Frances Farmer. She was a stock actress at Paramount when Samuel Goldwyn borrowed her for Come and Get It."
 Today, back at Paramount, she is getting top billing in picture called exclusive" And her pub licity department is tearing it's hair trying to persuade her to cooperate in routine stunts and still-pictures.
 When Toby Wing worked at Paramount she had no such Op- portunities as Miss Farmer has. Nor was she anything like the actress that Miss Farmer is. Yet Miss Wing posed in bathing suits, and with distinguished visitors, and looking at twO-headed frogs.
 In no time at all, and before she had appeared in more than 800 feet of film, she was getting more fan mail than anybody else at the studio. It was so embarrass- ing that the studio let her go.
 
 Goldwyn Liked It
 There's Andrea Leeds, another Come and Get It" actress. Previ- ously she had been an average, pop ular coed at local university.
 Then she appeared in school talent 16 nm. film called "The Cam pus Queen"
 Somebody showed the picture to Howard Hawks, who showed it to Goldwyn. Goldwyn signed her and she did very well as Edward Arnold's daughter in Come and Get It."
 Next she was named for the role

 of the comedy vamp in "The Wo- mans Touch" She went to GoldWyn and said she didn't like the part; didn't feel that she could give 1t her all, or something.
 Goldwyn said he liked it all right. Miss Leeds said she had some dandy ideas about how it could be rewritten into better role. Goldwyn said, You're not telling ME how to cast this pie ture! And he suspended her. Starts at Home?
 Goldwyn also told of Anne Shir- ley. (She wasn't exactly tempera- mental, thought He said, Don't go out nights just to be seen. Quit worrying about how many gossup columns will say you're romancing with Owen Davis, Jr. Tend to your job at the studio and your career will take care of itself"
 Barbara Read, one of the Three Smart Girls" is one of the girls who's turning out to be too smart for her own good. You find tenn perament in the most unexpected places.
 You find it, sometimes, in the managerial meddling of movie hus- bands. Nearly everybody attributes Miss Arthur's behavior to the coach- ing of Frank Ross, Jr. And it was that way with Ann Sten. Goldwyn said he fired her because he could mt tolerate her husbands inter ferences.

RUGGLES HIT.
AS CRUEL

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 5 0.N.SO.
To the long list of Hollywood mar
riages claimed by the divorce court,
the union of Airline Judge and
Wesley Ruggles is added today.
Charging mental cruelty, and
specifically citing her husbands
absences from home, the actress
filed suit for divorce and custody
of their 4-year-old son, Wesley, jr.
She charged that in August,
1886, RuggleS, after receiving a
telephone call from woman, left
home to meet the caller, despite
the fact that he and Miss Judge
had a social engagement. She
also alleged that RuggleS went to
Florida without her consent, and
without informing her as to the
date of his return. AS a result Of
this absence of nearly month,
she complained of great mental
and physical distress, which con-
fined her to bed for a week.
Stating that a property settle
ment had been arranged since
their separation last August, Miss
Judge asked $1,000 monthly for
support of the child.
Miss Judge is en- route from
New York to Los Angeles, having
authorized filing of the complaint
in a telephone call to her attorney.

There's No Such
Thing as Privacy
for Males Now

A woman threshing machine man
ager is somewhat Of a rarity anywhere
In the country and it is probable that
Mrs. FlOSSie Vincent Of Hamilton Is
the only one in Montana.
Mrs. Vincent has been managing the
business left by her husband, Frank
S. Vincent, when he died two years
ago. The Vincent machine had been
threShing Bitter Root grain crops for
nearly Is years and the plucky young
widow saw no reason why she and her
son, Frank, could not carry on the
business. Jack Miller, a Kansas man
who had been separator man for two
years, stayed with the job for Mrs.
Vincent and the boy, and this is his
fourth year. Kenneth Rogers Is engine
tender. Last year the outfit carried on
for three months of harvest. Wheat,
oats and seed peas were threshed in
season.
The 1887 crop will keep the machine
going for another month. A little grain
was threShed in the last days Of July,
but the main crop started going through
the big separator about Aug. /. Peas
and grain wrought a disadvantage by
at nearly the same time this
year, but the job generally has been
a progressive one. Mrs. Vincent said.
She attends to all business and sees
that the outfit is kept in repair. In
addition she manages her 10-acre farm
at the south end Of Hamilton and
looks after her family of four children.
The oldest girl was a graduate of the
Hamilton high school this year. The
son, Frank, and two younger children
are stil at home.

combatants of his party to Fort EIiis
Miles took rs men TO make a forceC
march. His first plan was to occupy
the mountain passes which it was ex-
pected the oncoming Bannocks would
attempt to negotiate. The invaders were
familiar with the territory. On many
4 previous occasions it was their custom
during the summer period, to visit and
/ trade with the members of the Grow
tribe, or to hunt buffalo.
Two Mountain Passes
( Miles had learned there were two
mountain passes in the mountains over
which the Bannocks could travel. One
was known as the Boulder pass, a rough
and difficult trail The Clark's Fork
pass was the better, but it was located
approximately lis miles away. 1t was
necessary, however, for Miles to antic-
ipate every possible contingency. The
Bannocks might try the Boulder pass,
or they might move farther around
over the easier trails to reach the
Clark'S Fork pass. He felt the Indians
were likely to come out through the
latter pass. Not to be found mapping,
Miles sent Lieutenant Bailey with 40
men to occupy the Boulder pass. He
then undertook a forced march with
the remainder of his men to the Clark's
Fork pass.
