She Stays Young Despite Critics
Bv RoIph Diohton
By RoIph Diehton

One of the studio tricks" that
enables Ginger to convey the i'm
preston of ingenious youth is her
own, peculiar little-girl stance. Her
male lead can speak all the lines
he wishes, but Ginger steals the
scene Just by standing and looking
up at him. She plants her feet wide
apart, throws her torso forward,
her hips back, lets her hands hang
at her side and gazes upward open
mouChed like a comely child meet
ing her hero for the first time.
That's Gingers trademark in the
movies, but it's little more than
an exaggeration-for film effects
of her real personality.
Ginger, essentially, is young. Not
as wide-eyed as she once was, per-
haps. she never has lost the innate
desire to be friendly that sets the
newcomer apart from Hollywood's Is
blase sophisticates.
Ginger puts it this way: Life will
try to tangle you and worry you
in its little greedy way, if you will
let it. The only way to keep free
of it is to have a strong desire to be
fair, and honest, and willing to do
your part. That will keep you

Todays subject matter deals with
the weighty problem Of movie fakery
and whether it's good business to
f1aunt 1t in the face of gullible fan
dom.
For many years-dating back to
the film infants birth, in fact-a
never dying controversy has ragged
between studios and exhibitors. The
shoWmen don't want trickery ex-
posed. Hollywood shrugs and says,
in effect, "AW Shucks, what's the
difference"
And movietown's moguls continue
to practice along this pattern. even
makeup men expose star secrets IN
open court. An important director
drags the president Of his company
before the law for calling him vile
names on the set. Oh, yes, every
thing is private-like a goldfish

Probably no exposure ever rocked

Susan Peters will never walk
again. But take 1t from me and
every one who knows her, she is one
of the happiest and most useful
citizens in Hollywood.
When her spine was paralyzed In
a hunting accident two and q half
years ago, Susan was well along
in her career as young movie
actress. We all thought that the
tragic accident meant Susie was
through as an actress and as a
person.
She has proved us all wrong!
I hadn't seen Susan much since
the accident. OF course, in the old
days of Random Harvest" and
Song of Russia" I saw her every
day of the week and she seemed
cute and nice ingenue.
When I called on her on the set
of The Sign of The Ram" her
first picture since her illness, Susie
welcomed me to her dressing room
with her old-time gayety. She was
seated in very fancy wheel chair
the gift of Columbia, the studio re-
leasing her picture. She wore little
makeup on her beautiful face-her
illness has made her look almost
ethereal. And she wasn't unhappy
and she wasn't self conscious.

tits wonderful to be acting
again" Susan tells me and she
means it. II found that being away
from the studios was one OF the
; worst things about being i'll. Taking
grease paint away from an actress
is like crossing off lollipops from
kids diet. Life just doesn't seem
the same. Now that I'm back at
work, life again Is interesting and
complete"
Susan admits that the period OF
readjustment was hard. when the
doctors first told me I'd nver walk
again, I was unhappy and rebellious
Then. slowly, I began to realize that
I had good many years of living
ahead of me in my wheel chair. Un-
less I wanted to spend those years
making my husband Orchard
Quine) and myself miserable, I'd
have to snap out Of 1t. Just as soon
as I admitted the wheel chair had
become part of my life and accepted
it, things became less gloomy and
my interest in life picked up"
Susan was under contract to
MGM at the time she was hurt.
When she began to recover, they
sent her several manuscripts which
had her the heroine in the wheel
chair.
