The immediate appeal Of

and two-fold. A romance in
the grand manner, set against
the background of the English
theater in the last century, it
gives off genuine glamor. Bet

first-class novel. Miss john

The greatest challenge Of the
author writing about the thea

heroine is unusually spirited,
a wayward, gifted romantic
girl, who under the direction of
Sir Henry Peverel, the actor
manager of the Belvedere, be-
comes a great actress.

plains in her foreword, may

Investigators Report On Illinois Coal Mine Explosion Dec. 21

SPRINGFIELD, H., P)-Sate and federal Investigators issued simultaneous reports Tuesday on the cause of the explosion which killed 119 men in a coal mine at West Frankfort, H., on Dec. 21. There was only one survivor in the explosion area.
 The investigators agreed that the blast might have been set off by a spark from machinery or an electric drill, or flame from a match or cigarette lighter.
 Whether spark or flame, the in vestigators said, it touched off an explosion of heavy accumulationS of methane, or marsh gas, which, in turn, exploded pockets of coal gas.
 The state report included a number of recommendations to prevent similar mine disasters.

HOLLYWOOD
NOTES
BY BOB THOMAS


HOLLYWOOD Up - Some joker
tackled on Joel McCrea's dressing
room sign reading "Millionaire's
Row."
Everyone on the movie set got
a laugh out of it, especially Nc
Crea. It's possible that he is a
millionaire, since he has been max
ing good money for 20 years in the
movies and is reputed to be foxy
with his dough.
But one thing is certain: He
doesn't act like a millionaire. Nor
has he brought up his two boys
to act like rich mans sons. In
fact, they have been so shielded
from the limelight that only this
week did McCrea allow the first
picture of one of them to be
published. The reason for the photo
graph was that the oldest boy. Jody
II, is appearing with his pop in
''lone hand"
"That's true" Joel confirmed,
'.there haven't been any pictures
of the boys published since they
were babies. The only photos we
have taken of them were for the
family album. My wife (actress
Frances Dee) had theory about
that.
"She objected to children being
used in publicity at an age when
they were not able to make their
own decisions about it. That wasn't
, being fair to them, she reasoned.
! She also objected to children being
forced to live in the shadow OF
/ their parents fame.
"And she was absolutely right.
! I have seen it happen to too many
kids of famous people. They wind
up with a complex about being Sec
ond best and make messes of their
lives. I wanted my boys to stand
| on their owh two feet"
The McCreas seem to have done
a good job along those lines on
! Jody and David, who is 16. They
purposely kept the boys out of the
/ Beverly Hills social whirl, where
they would be competing with 9th
er film children. The McCrea sons
have spent most of their lives on
the McCrea ranch, learning the
cattle business from the ground
up.
"The boys have even said they
don't want me to leave any money
to them," Joel added. "They tell
me can give it all to an orphan
age I have been helping over the
years. At any rate, ! haven't set
up any trust funds for them to
get at certain ages. I think that
! would be bad thing for kid"
Now Jody has been bitten by
the acting bug. After years of in
!, difference about his fathers pro-
fession, he suddenly has expressed
a desire to get into it. Joel gave
| him a chance to break into the
game in Lone Hand"
81 gave the kid part and let
him double in some riding scenes"
remarked Director George Sher-
man. Hes plenty good"
The proud father agrees, and has
given his blessing to Jody's new
enthusiasm. ''He's all excited about
it," said Joel. "Now he plans to
enroll at Pomona College and take
the same drama course that Rob-
ert Taylor and ! took there. I'm
not discouraging him. Acting isn't
q bad business; it's done all right
for me-"
Joel admitted that neither of his
sons has ever been a great fan
Of his.
"They like me better than RAN
dolph Scott but not as well as
Gary Cooper" he shrugged.
