Jimmy Loves That Letter u
BY HAROLD HEFFERNAN,
HOIJ,vWoOn


Personality parade:
Jimmy Gleason, that wiry little
Irishman of 200 Hollywood movies,
took time off today to give full
credit for his success to an old Mil
waukee printer. Doesn't even re-
member the fellows name. But if
it weren't for the printers tip-a
three-word tip y Jimmy probably
never would have seen Hollywood.
1t happened like this: Jimmy was
broke in Milwaukee. but surrounded
by willing actors. He wrote a show
and opened 1t. He called it Thurs
day Knight" A careless electrician
spelled it Thursday Night and
everybody stayed away, figuring that
was the night the theater was to
open. That's when he listened to
the old printer, who pointed out
that the letter "z" was the most
attractive in the alphabet to the eye.
You fellas are sure missing
great title" wheezed the printer.
i. rs Eat SOP" belligerently chal-
lenged Gleason.
That" countered the printer, 'is
your title"
Thus was born one of the greatest
titles in show business. 1t. plus the
play, was a veritable mopup and
quickly landed Jimmy and his CO.
horts in the big time.
Two weeks before the New York
opening said Jimmy on the set of
"A Guy Named joe" in which he's
supporting Spencer Tracy, my wife
used cardboard soles for her shoes
instead of leather I said I was too
healthy for an overcoat and too
smart for watch. Both were in
hook. Jack King, the heavy, hadn't
worked in six months. Vic Morley
took burlesque job to get fare to
New York. 10 Wallace demonstrated
toys in Macys basement in order
to eat between rehearsals and the
opening. Eleanor Parker thought
up crossword puzzles for a weekly
and Bob Armstrong was down to his
last rs cents"
The play ran steadily for two
years and turned the tide for every
one in the cast, for Jimmy and for
, his Lucille. She's been Mrs. Gleason
ever since his Dad introduced Jimmy
to a "cute little redheaded trick"
he'd nired to play Jessica in his
production of Merchant of Venice"
She was cutter than Christmas, ="
says Jimmy. That's still his pet de-
scription after 81 years of marriage.

evitable end of her heart breaking
romance.
Mr.. Allan Scott, with no more
than passing bow to the formula
of picture writing, did very we'll by
each of his three principals.
X y X
There are numerous fine dramatic
moments in the course of 80
Proudly We Hail" The best of them,
you probably will end up thinking,
is that which has been assigned. to
Miss Lake, the one in which she ex-
plains to Miss Colbert the reason for
her bitterness. In that one passage,
which comes after an exposition that
is perhaps overlong, Miss Lake re-
veals capacity for make-believe
which considerably exceeds your
estimate of her abilities. 1t is fine
piece of portraiture, the best single
bit in the film, but only slightly be-
yond the force of several which Miss
Colbert plays. especially an adieu
scene with her gentle professor
suitor.
80 Proudly We Hail" is a long
picture as movies go, even war
movies, but it is handled in such a
way that you never are conscious of
that fact.
Mildred Bailey, who sings with

so Proudly We Hail" the 10th
birthday attraction at the Capitol,
leaves no doubt that the lives of
nurses are just as exciting as those
in other branches of combat zone
services. In it, Producer Director
Mark Sandrich and Paramount
have found a fascinating story
which has been largely overlooked
by even front-line correspondents
looking for a new angle. Their
picture is almost continuously ex-
citing. rarely self-conscious that it
is top-heavy with stars. and pos
sessed of dramatic moments as high
as the highest in war pictures
which antedate it.
SO Proudly We Hail" is the story
Of three girls in the Army Nurses
Corps. They arc girls as different as
YOU would expect Miss Colbert, Miss
Goddard and Miss Lake to be. The
first portrays nurse who is
rather strictly on the professional
eia0, Qctploli type WHO properly
ends up wit hthe heavy-romance
angle of the story. Miss Goddard,
who never has been seen to better
advantage, represents the other ex-
treme, femme fatale who cuts
a quite comic figure in story which
needs just that sort of flavor to
balance its numerous poignant pas
sages. Miss Lake is the bitter one,
the bereft fiancee of young flyer
whom she saw machine -gunned at
Pearl Harbor on the day of the great
stab in the back.
Evening star., 1943-09-10

The three constitute an excellent
variety OF temperaments and per-
sonalities through which to tell the
exciting story of Americas heroic
Womanhood. Each gives one of the
best performances of her career
to make so Proudly We Hail" q
movie worthy of its theme.
III this hour of partial triumph
so Proudly We Hail is the more
effective as a piece of cinema be-
cause it reminds audiences that
there was a period of humiliation
in which few thousands of Aneri-
cans fought one of the greatest losing
battles in the countrys history. It
never lodges the fact that Bataan
was defeat, an inch inch, life
by-life, retreat that was as inexor-
able as 1t was glorious in its revela-
ton of the fighting hearts of the
defeated.
In generally relentless terms it re-
calls that the loss of the Philippines
was successful delaying action. In
the course of that action, however,
the story finds time for human
drama as exciting as any yet rec
orded in motion picture script. In
the mire, the blood. the exhaustion,
the malaria. the lack of supplies and
the vain hope that help will be COM
ing, the characters of the thrilling
drama find time still to be individ-
uals. The cold Miss Colbert finds
time for. a poignant piecemeal of
romantic moments with young
medical corps lieutenant, Miss God
dard snatches moments for a firta-
tion that is the undoing of even such
f1ibberty-gibbet as herself, and

trip around the world. In the u
years he spent in the Army he was
two years<in the Philippines and in
World War I served in both the
Tank Corps and Military Intelli-

With soldering out of his system,
Jimmy returned to Marry Lucille and
resume his theatrical work. He
came to Hollywood to collaborate
with Irving Berlin on The Minstrel
Man" for Al Jolson and remained
right here, mostly as free-lance
actor and writer.
Today, Jimmy, with his wife and

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4 Up
- These Things you can count
on, so far as your income tax is
concerned:
/. You'll have to pay more this
year than ever before.
2. You'll have to file by March
Is a return showing what your
1912 income was.
3. Unless Congress takes some
action quickly (and Congress
usually deliberates quite a while
on tax matters) you'll have
made your March Is quarterly
payment and probably the
June Is installment-on the ba-
sis of the increased rates voted
by Congress last year.
YOU WON'T LOSE
4. II Congress does make a
change later, any money you pay
on or before March Is will APP
ply on what you owe. So, the
Treasury and Congressional
leaders, say, you won't lose by
paying on that basis now.
One other thing seems fairly
certain:
After July /, undoubtedly
some portion of your paycheck
will be deducted to provide at
least part Of your payments on
the tax for l943. President Roos-
evelt, the Treasury and good
many Congressman are on rec
ord in favor of a pay-as-you-
earn principle.
If you keep these things in
mind, the tax experts say, you
won't be apt to be lulled by
day-dreams that you'll get out of
paying increased taxes this year
and for years to come.
9
The main point of argument
in the whole question of bring
ing taxpayers up-to-date on
their obligations to Uncle Sam
is how to get the pay-as-you-
earn system started.
ADJUSTMENT LIKELY
II a change-over is to be ac-
complished this year-and en-
tirely within this year some
adjustment will have to be
made if the taxpayer is to es-
cape paying two years taxes in
one year.
The Treasury objects to
"windfalls" which it says big
taxpayers would get under the
so-called Ruml plan, which
would skip the 1912 tax liability
and apply the taxes paid this
year against what's due on l943
income.
