HOLLYWOOD,


It's good business in Hollywood to
hitch your wagon to star"-and
If that star happens to be Bette
Davis, so much the better. Records
show that more players have won
stardom through association with a
Bette Davis picture than through
tie-ups with any other top person.
ality.
There are several reasons for this.
First, a Bette Davis picture gets
about as thorough play as pos
sible, and supporting actors are pro-
vided with a brilliantly lighted
showcase. Secondly, Bette herself
is sort of protege hunter She
takes keen interest in young play
ers, asks for their services in her
films and helps them along with
and coaching. No
other actress in Hollywood has
sponsored half SO many youngsters.
And surprisingly large percentage
have made good.
Latest to profit through affilia-
ton with Bette in movie is Mar
jorie Riordan, who was seen briefly
in Stage Door Canteen" Bette
saw that film, liked the girls work
and suggested that she make test
for the important role of Bette's
daughter in "Mr. Skeffington. She
won the part and all through its
filming received the assistance of
Bette in speaking her lines. Now
Marjorie is slated for featured
part in her next start.
Other Youngsters Aided.
Not long ago, Dolores Moran,
blond and beautiful youngster who
had been hanging around the War;
ner lot for year or more without
doing anything more substantial
than posing for still photographs,
was chosen to play a role in "Old
Acquaintance" In the film story
she was Miriam Hopkins daughter
but she appeared in many more
scenes with Bette than she did with
Miriam. Dolores stock immedi-
ately went on the rise.
In that same picture a young
actor also climbed several steps up
the ladder-sidetracked now that
he serves his country in the Navy.
That young man is Gig Young, with
whom Bette had a brief and un-
happy love affair in the picture.
But Gig did so we'll and was seen
by such a large number of fans
that his Davis association is ex-
pected to hold over and pay divi-
dends after the war.
Humphrey Bogart is another who
first won his film spurs by appearing
in a Bette Davis film. Bogart had
made previous sally at Hollywood,
but 1t was not until he supported
Bette in THE Petrified Forest" that
he took that long leap toward the
top. Bogart had one of the best
roles in the picture but it was Bette
and her leading man, Leslie Howard.
who got the top billing. Since then
Bogart has made up for any short
comings in billing.
Bogart also "hitched" his early
efforts to Bette's star In Marked
Woman" and Dark Victory" after
which he went on to conquer new
roles OF his own. The successful

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK.
1t doesn't bother Lillian Hellman,
one of Americas number l play
wrights and author of this years
The Searching Wind" that play
wrights rarely achieve popular fame.
Miss Hellman is happy without
having scarfs or perfume named for
her.
There is more and more of care
free spirit about the Louisiana
born playwright these days since she
bought back her contract with
Samuel Goldwyn. For several years,
Miss Hellman had been under con-
tract for $4,000 week. But when
she wrote North Star" and Gold
wyn insisted on putting in lot of
what she calls Hattie Carnegie
Russians" Lillian decided to call of
the deal.
AS a result. she paid Goldwyn
100000 and now she's dealing with
another producer.
She Likes Her Farm.
Meanwhile she is committing be-
tween her Pleasantville farm and
her town apartment on Seventy
second street. She got the farm
about six years ago because her
friends though it would help her dis
position and she's become more and
more devoted to it each year.
Everything there is well organized,
but in New York her apartment is
furnished with Victorian pieces she
stole from sets of her plays.
Thirty mine years old, with brown
hair, aquiline features and a slim
5-foot-3 figure. Lillian addresses
intimates as "snooks," has no nick
names herself.
She still has childhood enthus-
iasm for money, selects her clothes
carefully. And, having selected
them, she is apt to be found lost in
some enthusiasm, oblivious to the
expensive raiment Not long ago
Richard Nancy. friend and adviser
saw her on Long Island Sound
carrying a tuna fish over her mink
clad shoulder.
Miss Hellman likes to sell tickets
in theater box Offices and once fan
cied herself as a cook but says her
present cook is SO good she now
feels inferior.
Has Eye for PhOney.
| She has fine eye for the phoney
and says she can spot a hypocrite
mile of. Under the spell of good
music. she looks thoughtful and gets
sentimental. But her zest for living
soon recalls her to realities.

WALTER SLEZAK.
He's Almost a Superstition
By Inga Arvad.

January I would be offered a Job
but nothing very important. That
the middle of February would bring
a new turn in my career.
Well" Walter smiles and drops
some cigar ash on his dressing room
floor. Il didn't believe in him. but
nevertheless on the I'd of January
was up at Z am. and sat staring
at the phone.
"At II it rang. 1t was from one
of the networks. They wanted a
man who could speak Pennsylvania
Dutch. I went over without having
the faintest idea about how that
particular dialect is spoken. There
were IS contestants, but when I
got my lines I put together all the
languages I know (Walter speaks
French, English, Dutch, German
and Italian). They looked at me
sort OF surprised, but as nobody else
around there at the time knew what
Pennsylvania Dutch was, I got the
part.
That" Walter goes on, wasn't
much of job, and the next one
wasn't either. AS a matter of fact,
I went to Texas to lecture in uni
versity on Moliere, but while staying
in the State of the huge plains, I
received no fewer than eight tele-
grams offering me parts in Holly
wood. With one exception, all said,
Major studio wants you for big
part
Then I read the last one.
Leo McCarey wants you for
Ginger Rogers-Cary Grant picture.
I accepted Immediately. The rea-
son being that years before, Leo had
told me, while I was on Broadway,
some day I will get the right part
for you in Hollywood
"'Once Upon Honeymoon must
have been just that, because from
Their on the sailing has been rather
smooth"
Walter is outspoken-he dislikes
the Hollywood "set" and their foibles
and didoes. He has kept the in
dividuality of his father, former
Metropolitan Opera star, which
Papa Leo hammered into him be-
fore he was IL.
That" and Walter grins, 'is why
I bought and paid for 96-acre
farm In Pennsylvania. 1t is 65
miles from New York, has 10 head
of livestock, all named after my
friends. Charles Laughton and Leo
McCarey Craze there in utter con-
tentment.
THE day feel I am through
here, I will pack my family into a
carl hope gasoline rationing is
over by then-and drive straight
to that farm in Pennsylvania.
