Stars Sue
Anybody
For Anything
BY SARA HAMILTON
Special to THE DETROIT TIMES

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 6.
HOLLYW WOOD is strictly
- physical; a place where
emotions are primitive and the
incest people just up and knock
each other down as a matter of
course. It's a place, too, where
everybody eventually sues, gets
sued or threatens TO sue.
In the land of sunshine and
big dough, people amt so dog
gone happy as you might think.
Without the courts TO appeal
10, Hollywood would be the
Boston Massacre and a senior
junior egg throw all rolled into
one.
When the courts listen the
stars battle with the studio that
pays them Il, "dreat heeg
wonderful" check each week.
People elsewhere sue when
they don't get paid. Here they
sue 10 make them stop paying.
For instance, not so long ago
Hedy Lamar asked the court
10 release her from M-G-M. It
seems Hedy had Leo by the tail
and couldn't let go lest the
front end nip her glamour.
omehow the affair got
Strengthened out.

got In movie -oles, too.
Well. ANY, ay. he's mad, and
there's a lot more 10 IL, but
that's enough TO give you an
idea.
Even as big a star as Bette
Davis sued Warner Brothers in
the English courts and lost. We
forget what Bette was mad
about (and probably so does
sheJ, but was she burned at the
time.
So, you see. it's not all steak
and gravy, pie and ice cream,
love and kisses in Hollywood.

Pair Battles Studios

A pair of co-Stars in Princess
O'Rourke." Olivia De Havilland
and Robert Cummings, are at
present engaged in two more
court battles against their stu
dos, Warner Brothers and Uni
versal, respectively. Coming on
top of the "O'Rourke" release.
one of the slckest comedies of
the year, fans may wonder why
everybody should be so mad.
The facts are these: The pic
ture was made over Is months
ago and in that year Olivia
made nothing else worth talk
ing about. The fact il was
held UP in its release served 10
keep her off the screen just that
long. So, according TO Olivia,
she is suing Warmers because
she claims six months has been
added 10 her contract through
suspensions and she doesn't
want 10 make up those six
months for reasons of her own.
SO that's at least one expla-
nation of why people sue people
in Hollywood.
Let's take Cummings Bob
claims for two and half years
after he signed a Universal con-
tract he didn't even have
dressing room.
We don't suppose he was
forced TO disrobe under that
pepper tree behind the publicity
department, but Bob says ne
darn near had 10. Maybe in the
branches like Tarzan

After the war, when these young

how instill In them the same feeling
OF pride Of association which they
feel as members Of the armed

feeling was instillsd In the sales
men and contact men for some
business firms who were made to
feel that the reputation Of their
company depended upon their
actions.

spect to themselves. This was EN-.
phaslzed by DR.. Robert A. Millikan.

proved the manners and courtesy
OF the American public more than
