Hollywood Is Quick
To Toke Sides

HOLLYWOOD.

No suspension in recent years
has caused Hollywood to take such
sharp sides as Goth Century -Fox's
action against Betty Cradle for
her refusal to take part in a dra-
matte movie, "Blaze Of Glory"
with Richard Widmark.
AS the studio story goes. when
Betty was decided upon for the
part. she was attending the races
at Del Mar. She was notified by
wire and was told that the script
was on the way for her. The studio
claims receipt of a reply from the
star saying: "Never mind. What
ever it is I'll do it."
A few days later, the studio
spokesman declares, Betty turned
up in the Office of Lew Schreiber,
executive assistant to Daryl F.
Zanuck, and. much to his surprise
refused the role. declaring that
she was "a song-and-dance girl"
and pointing that there wasn't
even a tune in "Blaze Of Glory"
The discussion that followed is
to have broken up when
Betty burst into tears and walked
out.
The big puzzle to most onlook-
ers is why goth Century-Fox does
not go out and dig UP some first
class musical material for Betty,
who, through a succession Of
them, has become the highest
salaried woman in the world.
What further puzzles the observer
is that Betty's own agent appears
to be on the studios team and is
urging her to accept the Blaze
of Glory" assignment.
Betty is extremely anxious to
finish her contract so that she
can 60 out on her own, make the

HOLLYWOOD.


Is she dumb or amt she? That's
the question in Hollywood re-
garding the fabulous Marilyn
Monroe. I think she's smart. While
the photographers have been
shooting cleavage, the sexiest
blond since Jean Harlow has
been giving out with o steady
stream of quite clever dialogue
of a type which hasn't been heard
in Hollywood since Mae West.
Marilyn has a way Of batting
her beautiful eyes and saying she
doesn't understand something. or
oblivious to a situation
which is apparent to everyone
else. However. playing the dumb
blond is just a pose, very useful
to her at times. and it gets her
over some awkward situations.
y \ \
For instance. Marilyn stimu-
lated the worldwide publicity
given nude calendars. When Goth
Century-Fox executives learned of
the calendars, they told Marilyn
to keep quiet about it. since If
she did not admit that she had
posed for them. the laws of libel
would pretty well protect her
against any reporter identifying
her as the girl in the birthday
suit. Which quite possibly could
have killed her career.
When asked why she had ad-
mitted that she was the calendar
girl, Marilyn batted her big blue
eyes and said, II had to tell the
truth" When asked why she
posed in the first place. she said,
II did it because I was hungry"
Since the world is filled with
hungry people, it was the most
appealing Of all possible explana-
tionS.
Marilyn said that she was
deeply hurt" when the Army
censored picture of her with
four servicewomen on the ground
that her gown was cut too low.
The picture had been taken after
she had served as grand marshal
of the Miss America Beauty Pag-
cant parade at Atlantic City.
"I'm very surprised and deeply
hurt. said Marilyn. People were
looking at me all day long-and
I thought they were admiring my
grand marshal's badge!"

Another place where Marilyn's
apparent dumbness comes in
handy is when she is late, which
is always. I think it's because she
wants this career very much and
she's afraid she'll do something to
destroy it, and prepares. SO care
fully for every event-mentally
and physically-that she just can't
make it on time.
When being late gets her into
serious trouble, Marilyn reverts to
a sweet sort Of dumbneSs. I've
seen interviewers, furious at being
kept waiting as long as two hours,
absolutely melt within two min
utes of the time she showed up.
She's shy. which may be hard to
believe, but during her recent trip
to New York she actually became
Ill before making an appearance
and often burst into tears.

pray "for wisdom in making right
political choices"
An appeal urging all Protestants,
Roman Catholics and Jews to vote
was issued by the Commission on
Religious Organizations of the Ma
tional Conference of Christians
and Jews.
Similar pleas have been issued
by local and State religious groups
and individual church leaders.
This effort adds up to one of the
greatest campaigns of its kind
ever undertaken by religious
bodies of the Nation.
Even young people have been
brought into the drive. DR..

urged youth societies throughout
the country to help get out the
vote at the election.

sin, which President Truman car
ried in 1948, and Gov. Dewey in
1914, seems about to reverse its
field again and go for Gen. Eisen-
hover on November 4.
Republican leaders lay claim to
the State by a wide margin. An
astute and well informed Demo-
cratic leader rather sadly figured
that the odds in favor of Gen.
Eisenhower over his Democratic
opponent, Gov. Stevenson of Illi-
nois, are 6 to S. If the enthu-
siastic welcome which the general
received as he whislte-stopped
across the State yesterday, and
when he spoke in Milwaukee last
night, is significant, then the
Eisenhower odds should be much
greater.
This State. however, is capable
of strange political antics. It is
always dangerous to say it is "in
the bag" for any candidate. Every
sign in 1948 seemed to point to
an overwhelming Dewey vote but
President Truman carried it with
more than $4,000 votes to spare.
