Aay Il do, but nevertheless,
thousands of men will go
right ahead and spend the
most nervous quarter.hour
of their lives before the altar
during this month, which is
additionally dedicated to nup-
tial ceremonies.
Brides usually take the
marriage ceremonies with
dignity and sweet calm But
the bridegroom suffers
queer combination of acute
stage fright, cold feet and
selfconsciOusness.
II is the groom who says
his II do" az the wrong time.
II is the nervous groom
who finds his throat so dry
from fright and lips tensed
for the same cause that he
can't speak above a whisper.
Men certainly show up at
their worst when they are 60
ing through the marriage
ceremony. Well. why
shouldn't he be frightened?
He's taking on a whole new
set Of responsibilities. Right
during the ceremony his in
laws may be wondering how
much income tax he paid, or
why the girl couldn't get a
better bargain, or whether he
will be a good sort of hus-
band or one of those who
STAYS out late nights.
The groom knows he is be
ing given a critical onceover
and is secretly afraid he
will not pass il favorably.
That naturally tends 10 make
him uneasy.
But the main reason why
grooms become SO frightened
at their wedding is a haunt
saing fear they may be making
Va serious mistake. They are
in love with the bride, to be
sure, and think she is the
most wonderful girl in the
world. The mistake they
worry about, usually sub
consciously, Is that they
themselves are not OF the
marrying sort. that they may

Strand Theater. Jeanne has found that the road to stardom was strewn with surprises since she signed her contract a year and half ago.
 In the didn't know til now" de- partment, Jeanne has a few inter esting points to bring up for the re- cords of screen aspirants.
 Says Jeanne, T know photographs would come and take my picture, but I didn't think that every time l saw myself in a paper or maga- zine, it would represent half days work.
 T knew I wouldn't be able to in dulge in all kinds of sports because of the danger of accidents, but l didn't think I'd have to give up sun bathing because a coat of tan would make me photograph differently.
 And then, even though l knew that working in pictures wasn't all ice cream and cake, I didn't think the hard work started weeks before the picture and continued for weeks after actual shooting of the film had ended.
 There are lots of things knew, but lots more I didn't I'm still learn ing, and I still love it.

 On the same set, I saw human nature run true to form when seven bit" actors were ordered before the cameras to play game of poker in a gambling sequence. No sooner were the cards dealt than the actors forgot to act and became actually engrossed in the game. When the scene had been filmed, and the assistant director told them they were through for the day, they adjourned to the sidelines of the set and began to play for real money. When l left the set, they were betting dollar chips and one player was $35 in the red.
 No matter how young the actor, the ham" usually pops out the mo- ment he faces camera.

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 5-In one of the motion picture trade papers there is an item that leaves me dumbfounded. It states that be- cause of the alarming shortage" of players of potential star caliber, movie-makers will redouble their ef- forts to recruit new talent. What cooks?
 At no time in screen history has there been such a surplus of promising recruits as there is to- day Every studio in the industry is knee-deep in beautiful girls and likely young men. Off-hand. I think I could name fifty, signed within the past two years, who have not yet received adequate opportunities to show their ability, simply because there haven't been enough good parts to go around.
 Why contract new aSpirants by droves, when the majority of those already here have not yet been giv- en trials?
 It seems to me, after years of watching this game of ring-around- the-roSie. that most producers are constitutionally unable to grasp one fact. With a few sensational eX- captions, stars have to be DE- vELOPED by good casting, good Salesmanship and good training. The average studio boss appears to be unwilling to make any intelligent contributions to the process. h. stead, he optimistically believes that stars can be found ready-made.
