Mr.. Dionne makes modest and quiet
living in Callander, Ontario, in part by auto
graphing photographs of himself for visitors,
at a nominal fee. Imagine his dismay when
visitor after visitor began to regard him as an
impostor. The father of the quints, they de-
clared, didn't look like that. When pressed to
give some idea of what they expected, they
began to describe John Qualen in detail.
He ReoIiy Looks NormoI
Now, then, in private life Mr.. Qualen,
while not exactly the Robert Taylor type,
is normally good-looking male; but with
the touches of makeup that Hollywood
thought he needed as the father of quintu-
plets, it must be admitted that he looked like
-ah - to be brief about it, an odd sort of
duck. The genuine Mr.. Dionne, on the other
hand, is rather larger as whole and has less
nose, in proportion, than appeared to be the
case with Mr.. Qualen.
1t came to Mr.. Qualens ears, from sew
eral directions that Mr.. Dionne did not think
we'll of the impersonation. In fact, Mr..
Dionne was exceedingly critical.
Forthwith Mr.. Qualen wrote him long
letter, explaining the exigencies of the motion
picture business inviting correspondence -
and enclosing funds for an autographed pho
tograph. The idea about the correspondence
fell fiat, but after a suitable diplomatic in
terval the picture was forthcoming, person.

1.-THE father of the Dionne quints lives
happily in modest white house in
d Westwood, California, with his wife and
their three daughters. might clarity this
astonishing statement by saying that millions
of people who have seen the three films star
ring the quintupets think, in their subcon-
scious minds, that he is the father.
His name is John Qualen.
You may also recall him as the unforget-
table Muley in The Grapes of Wrath, as the
tortured little Earl Williams, sentenced to
death, in His Girl Friday; you may have
known him, recently, as the father of knute
Rockne as the sailor Axel Larson in The
Long Voyage Home; or as the mousy book
keeper in Angels Over Broadway. But Mr..
Qualen is so well remembered for his part in
the Dionne pictures that when he appears
on the screen there are always some in the
audience who nudge each other and say:
Look . there's that man again. The
father of the quints."
Which brings up an interesting fact, proved
time and again:
There are number of character actors in
Hollywood, of which Mr.. Qualen is perfect
example, who seem so completely the persons
they are portraying that it simply doesn't
occur to the audience to consider them in
the light of performers. With attention GEN.
tered on the stars, these others are dismissed,
unthinkingly, almost subconsciousy, as part
and parcel of the background, even as people
who just happened to be there when they
we're making the picture.
This is good thing, for the vital feeling
of authenticity that every good movie must
have depends great deal on the ability of
these character players and even bit players
- to be 50 convincing that they actually do
not seem to be actors at all.
Thus by the time MIR. Qualen had appeared
as Asa Wyatt, the somewhat stunned papa
in all three of the pictures featuring the
Dionne sisters, it seemed reasonable to accept
him, in passive sort of way, as the famous
dad himself lowering around the picture to
be sure that all was we'll with his kids. In TACT
one of the disturbing memories in Mr.. Quail
ems life is the reaction of the real father to
his performance Here's the story about that

THERE'S THAT MAN AGAIN

spot he was in, Qualen promptly volunteered
to jump into the breach; and to substantiate
his claim to experience and competency, he
fished the gold medal out of his pocket. The
boss shook the lads hand solemnly and told
him to get in there and pitch.
Qualen mounted the platform with firm
tread, and so far as can discover Il have
talked only to Qualen on this) he was won
derful success. One thing is sure: it resulted
in his organizing show of his own soon after
this, and this show eliminated in The Qualen
Concert Company, of which he showed me
an advertising folder, illustrated. There were
photographs of several attractive lady play
ers and standing beside each lady was her
particular leading man, dressed to suit the
role. Something about these leading men
struck me as familiar - probably an express
sion about the eyes common to all of them;
suddenly realized they all were Qualen.
The fortunes of The Qualen Concert Com
pany ebbed and flowed, mostly ebbed. But
during its existence Mr.. Qualen did accom-
plish something of great value - he learned
to play the flute. Well come to the flute in
a while

Out Of the Frying Pom

FOLLOWING the collapse of the enterprise,
Mr.. Qualen entered upon the career of sales
man of aluminium cooking ware at Kansas
City, and made good at it; but eventually the
incongruity between an aluminium frying pan
and gold medal for oratory struck him for
chilly and he quit his job, put the medal into
his pants pocket again and went to New York
to be an actor, once and for all. 1t is painful
to have to report that he had the very devil
he even lost confidence in the precious medal
and was about to try out the housewives in
the Bronx in the matter of new aluminium
frying pan. But before consigning himself to
