ACTOR TURNED RANCHER

DENVER, Colo. - up - George
(Pete) Morrison, once the idol OF
western movies in the silent film
days. is now a Jefferson County
rancher.
Morrison admits he gets quite a
kick out of television but never
goes to the movies any more.
"They run some of my stuff on
TV once in awhile" Morrison says.
Before he became star, Nor
rison was a stunt man and double
for some of the biggest names in
silent films, including William S,
Hart, Harry Carey, Hoot Gibson,
Wallace and Noah Berry, Ramon
Navarro and Reginald Denny.
Morrison appeared in more than
125 westerns and serials during
two decades of silent movie-mak-
ing.
