ting movie publicity several years
before appearing in a picture! She
is now famous only as the wife of
Flyer Dick Merrill
There was the tragic case of Jack
Dunn, the much-publicized skating
partner of Sonia Henie. Under
contract to Universal for a year
and half, the boy did not face
the camera. Then he had several
months at Paramount with loads
of publicity. but no part. Then
Edward Small signed him for the
title role in the life story of Rudolph
Valentino, and it seemed that jack
achievements would begin to match
his publicity. He died on the eve
of starting work.
Strip-teaser Gypsy Rose Lee and
Fan Dancer Sally Rand had all the
publicity trimmings that go with
the launching of a film career.
But Gypsy-Louise Hovick-made a
couple of pictures, and boom!-
oblivion. Sally Rand, ditto-ditto.
The keynote of Doris Nolan's
smasn huildup at Universal was her
sex appeal. She is now Hollywood's
forgotten Ann sheridan. And
remember Francis X Shields? He
had lots of publicity at Goldwyn's-
and what else? Practically nothing.
But to return to Miss Cradle. Why
the wide gap between her ballyhoo
and her screen achievements?
Betty's first claim to publicity was
under the title, THE First Goldwyn
Girl" She was signed by the pro-
ducer when she was mere 13-year-
old as decorative background for
Eddie Cantor in "Whoopee."
Betty was under contract to Gold
wyn one year-her youthfulness and
blond good looks grabbing her
plenty of magazine and newspaper
space. Then R-K-O-Radio signed
her for the Wheeler and Woolsey
comedy, Hold En-. Jail" Again a
lot of publicity-but the studio did
not take up her option.
In 1882 it occurred to Betty that
beyond a certain amount of posing
for this and that photograph, she
was getting nowhere in Hollywood.
She joined the Ted Flo Rito Orches-
ira at the St. Francis Hotel in San
Francisco for seven months, then
toured the country.
She came back to Hollywood,
made several shorts for Warmers,
then back to singing and dancing
with an orchestra. Came another
big splurge of publicity when R-K-
O-Radio gave her a part in Gay
Divorce" starring Fred Astaire
She was given long-term contract
as result-and very little else. But
she was kept terrifically busy dis

AtLong Last
Her Chance
Studio Awaited
Right Role for
Miss Carson
BY Hubbard Keavy,
Associated Press Staff Writer.
HOLLYWOOD,

11oIL "OOD.
Greer Carson has quick. precise
and English way of speaking,
quality from which you get the i'm
mediate impression that her type
Of acting should be brittle comedy.
Yet the first time she is on the
screen. she plays thoroughly
feminine wife. direct without being
obvious, charming without being
sugary. The role is Mrs. Chips in
'good-by, Mr.. Chips"
To risk a comparison, she Is like
Bette Davis in at least one respect:
One person on the screen and an
other in real life. One naturally Is
surprised to find an actress who
does not claim to be just her own
CsVeet self in front of the cameras.
Greer Carson is no stranger to
Hollywood. Nearly 18 months ago
she came from the London staga
with fine notices and much determi-
nation. Occasionally one heard re-
ports of new English girl being
tested for this or that, but she never
was put in a picture.
After many months, the word got
out that she was to play the sister
in The Toy Wife" role of almost
equal import to that of Luise RAIN
er's. But Greer didn't play it be-
cause cher mother tells this 'Iuise
thought Greer was too good" Mrs.
Carson says the way Greer intended
to interpret the part would have
taken every whit of sympathy away
from the star.
More time went by and the new
English girl stayed new. She now
wonders how she ever managed
to pass the time. And with each
slowly passing week her ego be-
came more and more debated until
there wasn't much left. 1t is con-
ceivable that each time she went
to collect her sizable pay check
she wondered out loud if there
mightn't be even tiny role for
her to do.
so, put on weight and took of
weight. and put it on again. says
she whose patience was tested.
The studio was looking for a suit
able Introduction and believed so
thoroughly in this girl that it waited
until the right vehicle came along.
1t was Chips filmed in England.
Greer has light red hair which
she wears in long bob and frivol-
Gus bangs. Her face is round and
her skin is clear and pink. She has
a good nose, wide blue eyes and a
mouth that doesn't distract your
attention when she talks. 1t isn't
a mouth, for instance. like Crav-
ford's or Faye's. Greer is 26 and
her mother says she should have
been, by birth and training, school
teacher.
And become rather stodgy," adds
Greer. when I was graduated I
went to work In an advertising
concern and became quite good at
market research (She would rather
not have her slight Office experience
mentioned because it is 80 un-
glamorous.)
Mrs. Carson joined in the story
to say that she discouraged her
daughters ambitions because they
had neither money nor connections.
Somehow they managed and In
three years Greer was a star.
Mainly, she played comedy, and
brittle comedy (said she, confirming
suspicion) but being cast as Mrs.
Chips was no surprise to her She
might have made as good an impress
sion as a comedienne, but that Is
open to question.
1t seems to prove that the movies
were lucky in doing such an effec-
tive job of recasting. 1t got them
a new star.

themselves as strongly suspicious

the rat can contract infantile
