THE INSIDE STORY OF THE "OSCARS"
Continued from page t,0enty

and industry workers through the
guilds, unions and professional
groups. But the final voting is con-
fined to the 1000 Academy men,
bers in secret balloting.
Whether this large and diffuse
membership is better qualified to
pass on the excellence of a per-
formance than the professional
critics is perhaps open to question.
At least it makes for excitement.
Academy members are inclined
to deplore the hullabaloo over the
Oscars, fearing that it diverts pub
lie attention from the other worth
while Academy projects - such
as the comprehensive film library,
the sponsorship of documentary
films, the fostering of international
film relations. ~
They resent the fact that the
Academy, like the grounding,
emerges only once a year into
the glare of public attention.
About a year ago, the home
Offices of the major movie COM
panies decided to withdraw finan-
cial support from the Oscar awards
and ceremonies - which cost
$4,000 to 100000 in all each
year. The movie magnates were
denounced by Jean Hersholt, then
president of the Academy, for
their "commercialism" - imply
ing that they were not interested
in furthering artistic products.
Actually the opposition of the
movie companies was dictated by
Evening star., 1950-03-19

other practical considerations -
principally the disruption of re-
leasing schedules, when pictures
were rushed into Los Angeles
theaters to get in under the Oscar
deadline.
The popularity of the Oscars
was too great. With Charles
Bracket as the new Academy
head, differences were patched up
and support was restored for this
years ceremonies. Presumably
these will be bigger and better.
They will be staged at the Pantages
Theatre - corner Hollywood and
Vine - with full panoply.
Long Shots. Too
WHO will win this year? Predic-
tions are dangerous, particularly
in Hollywood. But .basing our
judgment on scuttlebutt, highly
questionable advance polls and
our own predictions, you might
pair Broderick Crawford for his
fine job in "All the Kings Men"
with Olivia de Havilland (''The
Heiress"), a chronic contender
and one-time winner.
If you want some advance long
shots, there are Susan Hayward,
in "The Foolish Heart" Richard
Todd, in "The Hasty Heart, and
James Whitmore, in Battle
ground" " Or it might even be one
of those pesky foreign contenders.
Anyway, you'll know next Thurs
day night. The End
