DarracOOn IN the Everglades.
The third, and most ambitious adventure on
water took place off Santa Catalina Island.
1t was at the Catalina Island location that
Rose was called upon to perform the stunts
that took him out of retirement The next two
months in the schedule were devoted to the
romantic and dramatic incidents which blend
in with the stern historical background
For the purpose of studio schedules, the COM
pany's master technicians constructed a 1sO-
foot barque-an exact replica of the ships used
at sea-on Sound Stage No. ID. This boat was
unique as studio dry-land vessels go, for the
reason that it was engineered to simulate a
ship actually agitated by the motion of waves
Twenty-four huge hydraulic jacks under this
tremendous indoor vessel enabled studio tech
ncians to manipulate it in rolling and pitching
motions. In addition, this tremendous "set' was
mounted on wheels, which gave it further mo-
tion in two directions.

swerving his steering wheel either to the right
or to the left as the camera angle dictates.
His only worry is to hit the spot" previously
agreed upon, The spot" is a focusing point
for the stationary cameras. If he lands yard
or so too far either way the scene must be re-
taken. For "retakes' Rose makes no extra
charge since his deals call for perfect perform
ances
The picture in which this daring young man
will make his last performance on the screen
he's threatening to retire to the peace of farm
tenancy-was more than five months in the
making. Three locations at sea in pre-Civil War
schooners and barques constituted the first three
months of production. An expedition to the
Bermudas photographed coast lines and one
spectacular scene in which 280 negroes, follow
ing historical precedent, were dumped overheard
during "chase" by British man-o'-war
This Bermuda location served the purpose of
setting the locale for a story that blends the
romance of Warner Baxter and Elizabeth Alan
with the villaines of Wallace Beery and the
now extinct practice of capturing selling and
transporting slaves
Imperial Valley press., 1937-06-27

Rose from retirement literally dragged him
from the comforts of his Southern California
ranch to do the back-breaking stunt of falling
so feet from the swaying rigging of sailing
ship.
This doesn't sound terrific, even back
breaking but to an inexperienced daredevil this
is the uuintessence of danger. Water, from this
height possesses british, killing resistance.
Garnett chose Rose for an important reason
The film is a rugged, tWo-fisted drama OF re-
volt on the high 1t recreates the british
slave-trade period of 100 years ago when
swarms of Yankee sailing ships edged into
African harbors to load negroes and transport
them to the Americas For such a picture Gar
nett required realistic action men fighting des-
neratelv, falling from slim footholds and dying
valiantly
'rll do the job for $3.50 a fall" said Rose.
"If you want dives, they'll cost you $50 EACH"
I'm falling" Rose explained, you must con-
vev the impression that you are completely
helpless and allow your body to tumble as it
will until within seven feet of the water Dur
ing these last few feet you must jerk your body
to hit on the shoulders. split second of bad
timing would injure you for life.
THE trouble with the stunt profession" says
this old-tmer 'is that there are too many anna
teurs-desperate extras who need money so
badly they prime their nerves to take chances
on anything. These men know nothing about
the hazards of stunting. They are capable only
of taking slight knocks, such as falling down
small stairway, jumping through candy
glass windows and taking Socks on the jaw"
The old prices for these rather simple tasks
ranged from $50 for the stair bump to S75
each for window crashing and socks. With pres
ent competition however, prices have fallen to
S15 and $25.
rHE business of being "socked" in film fight
scenes isn't powder-puff scuffling. Screen
fighters do more than slap six-ounce gloves at
each other and once the camera goes into action
there's no referee to call fouls It's each man
for himself and Heaven help the fellow who
doesn't rock his jaw to two-ton uppercut.
Numerous fighting scenes were required for
the mutinous sequences of "Slave Ship" so Gar
nett again asked Rose for price. "I'll do it
for SIS fight" said the sumter
"But isn't that high?" queried Garnett.
How much is this scene going to cost your"
parried Rose
about $5000," Garnett answered.
Then it ought to be worth additional $76
TO get it right, shouldn't it?"
You're right" said Garnett. TITS deal"
Rose went into the fight that spread over 100
feet of deck space with some 80 professional
screen toughs sloughing each other for all they
were worth. 1t was Rose who took the Socks"
on the jaw for closeup scenes, and those
socks" weren't childs play.
Rose says, you've got to rock with q blow
to the jaw, that is, move with It This doesn't
always work, and when 1t doesn't there's the

a straw"
AS general rule Rose leaves the "socks"
to amateurs and restricts himself to the
more spectacular and better paying opera
tions. The automobile turn-turtle is the
most sensational No amateur, regardless
of the over-charged state of his nerves, will
consider this stunt. The price is determined
by the number of turns expected or exc
cuted.

What is a neck worth?
1t wasn't worth much if
one lived in England in merry
Robin Hoods day, but with
a 1887 slant on the price of
necks, most stunt men will
gamble their lives for the
sum of $3.50. Turning a car
over is a cinch, so the price
comes down and the producer
buys three fiips for S100.
There are Is stunt men in
Hollywood who consider it
very good business to chance
their lives against cold cash.
Their unquestioned leader is
Bob Rose. a slight, nervous
fellow who has cheated death
so many times his antics no
longer make news. For 20
years this man has set the
pace in all-around movie
stunts. He was the first to
make the change from motor
cycle to airplane, from plane
to train-the first to dive a
