| New Wife
For 7 arzan

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 27-Tarzan
has a new screen wife and IL sur
rounded by bevy of beauties in
his latest adventures. That sounds
interesting. so / go out TO the set
OF ''TarZan and the Amazon" this
week to check up on the situation.
The Amazons aren't working,
but Brenda Joyce. the new Jane"
in the jungle series, is doing a
scene with Johnny Weissmuller
and a group of men In an African
trading post.
Producer Sol Lesser is a gam
bier. 1t was Maureen O'Sullivan's
desire 10 have babies that cost him
the original Jane" in the jungle
pictures. Now he has hired an
other actress who refused to let
her career interfere with raising
a family.
But Brenda seems TO be a happy
choice. She's not afraid of working
with animals, she's a fair swim
mer and her only fault, according
to Johnny Weissmuller, Is that she
scares him TO death when she
drives an automobile.
There's not much action In the
trading post scene, but it's his
torical in one respect. At the fin
ish, Weissmuller faces the group
and says:
"TarZan go home. The sun
sinking in the sky. Jane come
with TarZan."
I'm told it's the longest speech
that Weissmuller has ever made
in the series.
