PORTRAIT OF A CELEBRITY
Tor: The Hell Of Eamel

va $50 sANss vs.
Any time he wants to complain
about the annoyances of being In
the public eye, he should remember
nothing would make him more I'M
happy than being forgotten .. He
may think it's silly to be chased
by autograph fiends, but he should
be grateful he's not in the shoes OF
too many other people who are
being chased by bill collectors !.
Many of his friendships may be
based on the fact that he can do
favors. Yet he should keep in mind
that he might not have clicked If
he didn't get favors With the
advantages OF fame come many re-
sponsibilities; like being discreet and
diplomatic at times when he feels
like grousing He will remem-
Der to keep all his human. faults
at q minimum, if he knows that
the spotlight is terrific magnify
ing glass Instead Of losing his
head about all criticism, he should
learn to distinguish between the
constructive and destructive types.
He may think interviews are
sappy but remember that the inter-
viewer may also dislike the job he's
doing. There are very few jobs
that are pleasant for everybody con-
cerned Instead of being sus-
picious that people are trying to
lake favors from him he will be
happier if he realizes he Is very for
tunate to be in position to give
them He will remain on top
onger if he spends more time worry
ing about how to stay there, instead
Of wasting time trying to make
others envy him 1t Is only ma
tural that he take some satlsfac-
ton out of making good, but that
shouldn't blind him against the
greatest of all satisfactions-doing
good He should choose friends
not by the amount of compliments
they give him, but by the amount
of faith he can have in them.
He shouldn't become cynical be-
cause a few have betrayed him.
No one goes through life without
few double-crosses. His viewpoint,
won't become warped if he remem-
bers the many who have remained
loyal. He will be better off If
he takes his work seriously, but not
himself Competition may be
painful. but he shouldn't think he
is above all that. The sweetest VIC
tories always come from the hard
est fights Ale should be grateful
for flattery but know that flattery
alone never MADE a person great.
He should remember Boosting will
never help him. The only thing
that will is doing things that earn
praite from others ;. If he loses
his head, it's possible he will see
how wrong he is and change his
ways. But losing chance to snow
he has a heart is unforgivable ;.
He should enjoy his success, but
never at the expense OF the people
around him Being a success
at Sc me trade or profession shouldn't
mea1 he doesn't have to keep on
trying hard to make success as
human being If he isn't sure
that compliments are sincere, 1T Is
best to assume they arent-he
stands less chance of being dis
illusioned that way =. Always re-
member it's safer to be overwhelmed
than over-confident Having con-
fidence in himself shouldn't mean
he hasn't confidence in what others

NEW WAR DRAMA
 AT POLP TODAY
Somewhere I'll Find You Stars Clark Gable and
 Lana Turner

Clark Gable and Lana Turner CO., Turner co-star again in Somewhere III Find You" the new Metro Goldwyn-Mayer drama of war cor respondents in the Far East, which opened today at the Loew Poli Iheater. Their first co-starring film was "Honky Tonk."
 This is a story as timely as to- days dispatches from the front and it is handled superbly by stars, sup porting cast and direction by Wes- ley Ruggles.
 Gable and Robert Sterling, as brothers, and newspapermen, are both in love with Miss Turner, also a correspondent on duty in Indo- China. The rivalry is rudely inter rupted by the bombing of Pearl Harbor, which throws them into the maelstrom as something more than neutral observers.
 The girl disappears and the broth- CTS go after her, fighting through jungle and Japs to find her trans porting Chinese children to a place of safety. It develops that her real love has always been for the older brother, Gable, although she was half engaged to Sterling.
 Tn the spectacular action of the 1irst stages of war with Japan, Sterling is hit. Gable and the girl are reunited and the story ends on Q note that leaves the feeling Of eventual American victory.
 The supporting cast is excellent including Patricia Dane, as a beau- tifui adventures in the Far East. Reginald owen and Lee Patrick, as denizens of Greenwich Village in New York. Tamara shayne, Charles Dingle, Leonid Kinsley, Diana Lewis and Sara Haden.
 The story Is strikingly effective fn it's timeliness, rich with adgep- tuEe of the sort that is familiar 10 Americans nov, and warmly human an iss romance.
