Capt. Ernest c. Ulsh, skipper of
the ferry Fox Island the other day
when some passenger mysteriously
pulled the whistle at Tahlequah
landing. denied Friday that he
made any fuss with passengers
over the incident.

veteran Skansis skipper explained.
Il figured 1t was intended to be q

on my way down to the ferry
when the whistle blew.
THE only bad part was opening
the gates for passengers to go
aboard before the purser got there.
II one of those cars had gone into
the bay, results could have been
very serious all around. Opening
gates before the crew Is ready Is
strictly forbidden.
May Have Been Purser
IT had a pretty good idea of who
blew the whistle signalling we
were about to leave. II was in
error to say that 1 went into the

go INTO the room at all. The purser
undoubtedly went in to collect
tickets he couldn't get at the gate,

I'VE have TO Rave Gig Harbor

only place we can get that Is at

asked Selznick 10 handle his
studio deals. The agent refused at
first but finally accepted on one
condition; that throughout the
life Of their contract the director
never would write. telephone or
even speak to selzniek. The d.
rector would be notified OF jobs
that were found for him but other
wise Selznick didn't want TO be
bothered. The client agreed.
Practically all the creative peo-
pie in the picture business have
agents. Most Of them realize that
it's a good investment: that a
shrewd and persuasive represents
tive can get a lot more money
for their services than they ever
could win for themselves.
LOMBARD sTTNGs sELZNICK
The agents themselves are not
always very careful about con-
tracts. When carols Lombard
turned free-lance actress and was
asked by Byron selznick to sign
a new agreement with him. she
was annoyed by the bewilder1ng.
20-page legal document he sub
mitted to her.
She decided to teach him a les
son. A lawyer was hired and at
considerable expense they had
printed another contract form
which looked like the first one
but had . few small but vital
changes.
At a little ceremony in his
office, Miss Lombard and Selznick
signed the new document - the
agent without even CHANGING at II.
His client then bawlsd out her
representative for his carelessness
and pointed out that he had made
a pretty embarrassing mistake.
Selznick discovered that ne had
signed an agreement TO pay 10
per cent OF his own income to
Miss Lombard for the privilege
of arranging her movie engage
ments.

PROSPERITY POPS UP
When q talent peddler talks
like that 10 a prospective client,
you can be sure that prosperity
has come TO Flickerville. In normal
times most agents are very toler-
ant OF the whims and walls of
the people they represent In bust
ness dealings with the studios.
After all. commissions of 10 per
cent on each clients salary add
up to a sum that would put almost
anybody in a good humor.
The most prominent Of all
agents. Myron selznik Is as
temperamental as any Of the stars
whose careers he manages. In

'em like II, and sometimes even
fires them. Once he telephoned
Herman Hankiewicz. n prominent
writer, and told him TO get him
self another agent Mankiewicz
didn't know what the trouble was
but he offered an apology II he
had offended Selznick in any way.
The latter merely hung up and
went out and arranged for rival

account.
