Tor the moment MISS CampDell, MI
Wellman and glamour seem to be
the important items.
An ex-World War fier, Mr.. Well
man knows his realism as it relates
to aviation. AS highly successful
Hollywood director, he also knows
his movies. When it came to max
ing Men With Wings" being the
informed gent he is, Mr.. Wellman
asked for leading lady who fitted
his, rather than the usual box
Office, specifications.
Speaking bluntly, as becomes an
aviator, Mr.. Wellman says:
II wanted a leading woman who
could be married to an aviator, sew
fabrics on wings, have a baby and
get starry about it, and have
a world of faith and trust in the
one man she loved"
go on with Mr.. Wellman, who
added:
II found that glamour had taken
such a hold in the motion picture
industry that there were few &C
tresses who could play such a role.
They were either hoydens, laughing
at everything in life, or super
sophisticates, bored to death with
everything.
This was fine state of affairs
when wanted shy, unspoiled little
girl who would really suffer deeply
when her father was killed in an
airplane, who could have ideals and
purposes in her life and register ex-
IRENE faith and depth of emotion"
Louise Campbell, of course, turned
out to be the girl.
Now. before you begin to think
that Mr.. Wellman merely was
speaking for the publicity depart
ment, have look at his record. He
has felt that way, apparently, since
he began his film career. 1t was
back in 1927, to be- specific and pos
sibly embarrassing, that he was
making a picture called Wings"
For the lead in that film he insisted
upon comparative unknown to
fill a strong, dramatic role. Mr..
T|ellman's eventual choice was Gary
Cooper
In the same picture, Mr.. Wellman
offered to the world a couple of
other players then just getting
started. They were Clara Bow and
Buddy Rogers. Neither remained
around until today, but that was
