talent that Hughes will be most
rewarded as he drops movie-mak-
ing for other, presumably higher,
things.
The world in which actors live is
no more uncertain or wretchedly
capricious than that Of the rest OF
us, but there must be days on which
performers think otherwise. Such
a day was yesterday.
From Hollywood came the fret
some news by Ronald Reagan, Guild
president, that mere 900 of the
$500 members of the Screen Actors
organization were under studio con-
tract. This, he pointed out, repre-
sented the greatest degree OF unem-
ployment in any industry, an esti-
mate that will stand until someone
can produce more startling figures.
Counterpointed dramatically was
the news from London of the critics
attack on Mickey Rooney, not on
the basis of his merit as an enter
tainer, but on the ground that his
current earnings at the Palladium
are $4,000 a week.
Perhaps the decent parental thing
to do is to read the two items to
your offspring and point out that
they would be sensible to give up
that yearning to be movie stars.

"And yet" he added, "an of them

areas are painted with a water-solu-
BILE paint and then the entire screen
is painted with . quick-drying otl

in water, the water-soluble paint
dissolves, leaving that area free to
absorb the dye.
The screen is then placed over the

Cities Ike New York. Chicago, Phil
adelphia, San Francisco, and Dallas
are well known for their window
displays. Here In Washington, an
other local display artist, John
Greer, mentioned to US that window
dressing is on the upswing. More
and more stores are realizing the
great pull that. IN effective and not

toner.
According to Gregory Carmichael,
another local display artist, the most
important part Of all display work
(next to actual clothing) Is the
mannequin. She generally comes in
a size IL and is supposed to repre-
sent all American womaslhood.
He told us that mannequins de-
signed to show new look" clothes
have tiny waists and are bigger
around the hips to take the bustles,
pleats, etc. Pre-new look manne-
quins could not show OF the current
styles too well. A naannequin
may cost anywhere from 500 to
81, 500. Also, prevailing hair fash
ions must be shown on the manne-
quin. Thus, their hair styles must
be changed about every six months
to keep up with the current mode.
He also told us about the time
Salvador Dali had been commits
stoned to do . set Of windows for .
leading Fifth Avenue store. Days
were spent designing spectacular
sets, one Of which included Q fur
lined bathtub right in the window.

play a. one would expect. Even
stranger, We think, u that before
the war Berlin had the most beat
tiful window displays IN the world.
This u strange since there were no
definite fashion interests at heart.
In tact, many display men from all
over the world used to travel to
Germany to study draping.
Competition amongst window
dressers is very keen. Promotions
are jealousy guarded and "plagia-
rism" is not an uncommon practice.
Most display men are in agreement
in that q display should neither
overpower the merchandise or those
looking at it. According to them,
window display Is really an art.
Original treatments, simple, uncon-
fused arrangements, creativeness,
and fashion ordination are re-
quired Of q good display artist. In
fact, Jimmy Keefer, well known IN
Washington display circles, informed
US that q superior" sense Of color
Is needed, not just . good" one.
Nothing is safe once the display
man has to get out an effective
window treatment. Inspiration for
windows includes antiques, historical
periods that coincide with the fash
ion being presented, architectural
books, different seasons, and the
various civic functions taking place
at that time. Props are obtained in
any number Of ways. They come
from Easements. from homes,
antique shops, friends residences,
and from the stores own stock Of
props, which are used over and over
again, painted, repainted and re-
worked many times.
Window dressing has come up .
great deal in the past 10 years.
