He next must build an cleo

explains:

Joel is a hometown boy who

"Kid,' they'd tell me. If you

mar school education came from
the little public school near the
ranch. They grew up with the
children Of other ranch families.
Joel said the boys always had
fixed routine of cnores on the
ranch and never received the
pampering that some wealthy
children get.
Their clothes always have been
bought by McCrea personally at
chain stores where other ranch
families trade.
Son Is Cautious.
Once Frances bought the boys
some shoes in a swank Beverly
Hills shop. Driving back to the
ranch, she heard Joel, jr., tell his
brother:
IF you tell the rest of the kids
where Nom bought these shoes,
I'll let you have it right in the
nose"
Frances let Joel resume the
buying after that remark.
Hollywood gossip columns sell
dom mention the McCrea-that's
because there never has been any
gossip about them in 18 years of
married life.
| The ranch, next to his family,
apparently is the biggest thing in
Joel's life. He says the only reason
he ever became an actor was to
earn enough money to buy it. The
McCreas live well but not lavishly.
The ranch is their only home
except for tiny Santa Monica

ture making. He makes as many

Wife Feels the Same.
Frances apparently has the
same philosophy. She, too, works
when she feels like it.
Wasn't she wonderful? Wasn't
she beautiful" exclaimed her
husband after a recent television
show. you wouldn't think she
had two boys who tower head
and shoulder above her, would
lyou?"
Actually, 1t was Frances who
made a serious actor of Joel. He
was satisfied Just to save enough
money to buy the ranch. but
Frances urged him to continue
his career. She sold him the idea
that he should be as good an actor
as he could make himself.
That's the reason why he con-
fines himself to one picture q
year. He picks his roles solely
because he feels they are suitable
to his talents.

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-Major|

Michigan State, f1fth-ranked ma

former heights.
Neither is bowl fodder. Michi-

disgustedly at the mud bog of

Coach Jim Tatum Of Maryland

Nobody has any canvas to cover

"The Board of Parks has ap-

$4,000 for enough tafpaulin to
