in his eventual life; strange cross
roads and why he took the path
to fame and riches. You'll be sur
prised at the reason.
The time is 1922, a subzero day in
March; the place, Butte, Mont.
Gable had left his Ohio home a
couple of years previously, devoting
the intervening period to dressing
tools in the Oklahoma oil fields and
emoting, although not prominently,
in a third-rate travelling show,
which had just folded on the bitter
day in question. Let Gable take

Welles' great passion is work.
Outwardly this large-bodied man
with massive head, slant eyes and
patriarchal urbanity toward people

he is a little on the side of a Tibetan

brain and body of his are driven as

Welles' next picture, "The Mag

the cameras by the middle of Sep

HOLLY WOOD.
Let's say you want to be a movie
star What do you do about it?
Ask any Hollywood talent scout
or casting director and you get the
same cut and dried answer:
GO to a dramatic school. Study
hard. Try to catch on with a stock
company or radio program. If you
show outstanding talent we'll hear
about YOU But, don't come to Hol-
lyWood without an invitation"
Sound advice? Maybe-in a few
isolated cases. But, let's be realistic
and get down to cases. If you
followed the gate crashing pro-
cedure of many established movie
stars you'd try any one of the
following steps:
Go down to the railroad station
and pick out a good train.
