Jean Peters has two current
claims to fame. IN her first picture,
she is Tyrone Powers leading lady
In Captain from Castile. And in
private life. she Is leading lady to
Howard Hughes. Jean, one Of the
more candid people to come 10 Hol-
lywood. Isn't quite sure at this point
which thrills her more the acting
|or the Mr.. Hughes aspect Of her
life.
I'm very much IN love with How
ard, " the 20-year-old brunette star
let tells me at lunch In the 10th
Century-Fox cafe. But she adds
hastily. neither Of Us wants to get
married Just yet. Howard told me
that he always wanted to marry, but
something always happened. Either
he decided It was wrong, or she did.
He wants to be very sure that when
he does marry. it's for keeps. So
do I. We both feel that II we wait
10 year, well know more about
whether We want to get married.
But please don't say we're engaged
now, because Howard gets annoyed.
You see he's q business man and
doesn't like that sort Of publicity"
Jean first met Howard last June
at Bill Cagney,s beach house In
Malibu. 1T was just before his
crash. We knew right away that we
liked each other"
He's every Serious"
''What did you talk about?" I ask
Jean. She replies, "Propellers!"
She adds that she Is interested In
aviation. A girl would have to be
to go with Mr.. Hughes Jean has
flown with Howard. "But," she says,
The has never yet let me hold the
controls" We both agree that he
never will. Flying is to Hughes
what q bag Of gold is to a miser.
He doesn't let anyone else handle
his machine.
Hes a very serious person." con-
tinues Jean; that's what makes
him so different from the other men
I know. He always has something
on his mind-his airplane, his movie
productions or his tool machine
company. He's never quite free to
enjoy himself. He's also very shy,
and that makes people sometimes
think he doesn't like them. When
we were on location for my picture,
Howard came to see me in Mexico.
My stand-in, Arlen Hurwitz-
was at college with me In Ohio
thought Howard disliked her, but he
said he thought she was very nice. /"
Arlen is the gal to whom Jean
really owes her career in Hollywood
and her meeting Hughes. Arlen en-
tered Jeans photograph for the col
lege beauty contest at Canton, Ohio,
without telling Jean. "Then they
collected So from me for the en-
trance feel" says Jean. She won the
contest, and the prize was trip to
Hollywood and a screen test at GOTH
Fox.
Fate Stepped In.
II flew to Hollywood with my
mother" Jean declares. "It was
around Christmas time, and I only
had a week because I had to get
back to college" Jean made her
test and was told to wait in town
for q decision. "But / couldn't.
told them to let me know when they
made up their minds" On the train
going back to Canton, Jean received
word that she had been offered a
seven-year contract at the studio.

ton futures turned reactionary in
late dealings today, as scattered
commission house liquidation along
with New Orleans and local sell
ing met no trade support. Final
prices were $l.O5 to $1.55 a bale
lower.
Good crop prospects,, and the
fact that hedge selling against the
new crop is due to increase soon,
encouraged some of the selling.
Early gains of almost 81 a bale
had been reached on mill buying
and short covering.
News that a new labor contract
had been negotiated with 81 New
England mills was considered con
structive. The scheduled openings
Of offers by the Commodity Credit
corporation on 40, 900 bales of cot
ton for Japan also induced early
firmness. There were small fur
ries of hedging during the session
