he insists on anonymity.
When the credits are passed
out, he settles for "choreog-

THE PASSING SHOW
Cost Stress Hard;
On Latest 'Porqy'

effect Of the cleanliness, but
the fact remains that 1t re-
duces the squalor Of Catfish
Row life which is such an
essential part of its drama.
1t is responsible, too, for thA
criticism that Director Pre-
miuger. German born, has
photographed "Porgy ana
Bess" as If 1t were an OLD
Heidelburg musical festival.
Is II Overdressed?
Although Mr.. Goldwyn, q
proud man and a confident
one, may call it a bubble,
there is ground for argument
that his "Porgy" is sadly
overdressed.
It's wardrobe is the work Of
Irene Sharaff, a designer who
has learned all of the dra-
matte tricks of costuming
performers working before
large, color cameras. There is
no question that these are
beautifully harmonized as to
tones and that they look like
paintings as they flash on
the screen.
Still, there is a large ques-
ton In the minds Of those
familiar with the stage pro-
duction. that they relate as
they should to the economic
distress that gives drama to
the love story of Porgy and
BeSS. AS dressed in the
Robert Breen production
which ran for years in this
country and abroad, the
stage "Porgy" caught the
true flavor Of the life on
Charleston's waterfront Of
which Gershwin's lovely
music sings.
The Transforming hands
which worked on the Gold
wyn production did not con-
fine themselves to the
physical production. They
are evident in a number Of
more important details, Of
which one is the reshaping
Of the character of Bess.
Bess Not Found Wanton
In the original narrative
and musical design, Bess is
an inevitable sinner, victim
of her own impulses as well
as the criminal hungerS of
the early men in her life.
AS played by Dorothy DAN
bridge, she is shown as one
more sinned against than
SHINING, a kind of apologetic
BeSS in comparison with the
wanton who could be trans
formed by love:
Yet, despite these and
other churlish complaints
logically to be made against
Mr.. Goldwyn's picture, 1t Is
he who may well have the
last laugh.
His "$7 million 'Porgy and
Bess'" is among the top
three pictures in current box
Office figures - popularity -
according to this weeks Va
riety.
This surely is a form of
consolation for whatever
shafts are aimed at it by
critics.

LIVE, SAYS ZSA
Men Shouldn't Sit
On Their Money!

ZSa ZSa, who purred her
comments while dress de-
signer Livia Sylvia struggled
to fit her in a new gown,
said she doesn't believe
Flynn's death represents the
end of an era.
There will always be won-
derful men who dare to live
well," she said. You know,
darling, someone new is al
ways coming along. I have
great hopes for a young
actor named Steve Boyd. He
has a role in the Ben Hur'
movie. He thinks like Enrol
Flynn. He dares to live.
Frank Sinatra? He dareS,
too, but he isn't like Flynn
at all. Sinatra isn't as happy.
He's still looking for women
to make him happy. Enrol
Flynn made women happy.
That's the big difference.
oarnng' ~ 4t1pe
Ever Optimistic
"No, Flynn wasn't an ideal
husband. What man is? But
we women are always so op-
tinistic. We think we can
change our men. Enrol would
marry, have children, and
leave. He never changed. He
couldn't change. I'm not say
ing he was a good family
man, darling. He wasn't.
But he was Enrol Flynn
and he lived from the day he
was born until the day he
died. I mean he really lived.
That's why young girls were
attracted to him even when
he was so years old. He was
SO in years, but not in his
attitude, darling"
Zsa Zsa was disturbed
when the interview and dress
fitting was suddenly inter-
rupted by the arrival of
newspaper photographers.
No Pictures
"You are darling men," she
cooed. "You are very NICE
looking boys, but tell me. why
are you here? Who sent for
you? I don't want any pic
lures, darlings. Just look at
me-"
Everyone looked. No one
saw anything wrong.
I'm talking to this man
about Enrol Flynn" she con-
tinued, hands waving, land
I don't want any pictures"
A phone call summoned
her press agent. who talked
zsa zsa into posing with her
dog. "The dog will look bet
ter than I do" she COM
planned. 1t was the incest
compliment any dog ever re-
ceived.
He Still Lives
Nov that Enrol is dead"
she said, many things are
being said about him. That
he drank too much. That he
had no respect. That he
wasted 81 million. Maybe he
did, darling. I'm not defend
ing him. But he lived. Don't
you see?
HE was a man, darling.
A man.
"Too many people are like
vegetables. They just exist.
They begin as little sprouts,
they grow, and they rot. But
they don't live. When they
die, what have they done?
In so years, E.'rol Flynn be-
came a legend. Other men
envied him, and women
wanted to know him. AS
Enrol said himself, if he had
it to do all over again, he
would do it exactly the same
way.
Enrol Flynn may be dead,
darling, but he's still more
alive than many men ! know.

LOVE THAT LUXURY
She Likes Hollywood
And Being q Film Star
BY SHEILAH GRAHAM

BY SHEILAH GRAHAM
North American Newspaper Alliance
HOLLYWOOD. - Carolyn
Jones, the blond brunette
who went from $3.50 a week
to $150.000 per picture in six
years, is NOT a member Of
the fashionable II Don't Like
Hollywood" school. This
latter includes Diane Varsi.
Marilyn Monroe. Marion
Brando, Suzy Parker. An
thony Franciosa, Carroll
Baker. Tony Perkins and
many others.
Il like Hollywood, and I
like being a movie star" said
Miss Jones, on the set Of her
latest starring film, "Ice
Palace" at Warmers. II like
everything about 1.-THE
glamor, the excitement, the
stimulating people I meet,
the travelling, the clothes, the
money. Being waited on,
being spoiled. the constant
challenge to get ahead and
stay ahead, also, the rich
food, the rich living, the
rich life"
From the above quote, you
can see that our Carolyn has
nothing in common with, let's
say. Diane Varsi, who couldn't
stand the "stultifying atmos-
phere Of this place" and who
fed to the comparative quiet
Of q village in Vermont where
she could live in "obscurity,
away from the probing eyes
Of the world"
Missed the Place
And Miss Jones isn't a bit
like Olivia de Havilland, who
found Hollywood terribly
dull-and that's why, Carolyn
said, such stars as Lauren
Bacall took of to live per-
manently in Europe or New
York. Actually. Miss Bacall
couldn't stand Hollywood
because 1t no longer was
home without Humphrey
Bogart, her husband, after
Bogey's death.
jeanne Woodward and Paul
Newman, Carolyn points out,
had to leave Hollywood to
live a spell in New York be-
fore they could appreciate
the place. One stretch in
Manhattan, with Paul star
ring on stage in "Sweet Bird
Of Youth" and they found
they both missed Hollywood
tremendously. In fact, they
can't wait to get back here
and will, too, as soon as
Paul leaves his play next
January second.
According to Carolyn,
Marilyn Monroe is the prime
example of the II hate Holly
wood" group. She stays here
not one minute longer than
Is necessary to, make a pic
ture. and to collect the mil
lion dollars the picture makes
for her. Carroll Baker is in
the same category, although
she is coming around-she
and her husband recently
bought a home here, after
discovering that Hollywood
isn't 80 bad after all.
What She Wanted
Miss Jones, a blond who
dyed her hair brunette to get
her career started, says, I'D
be a fool not to like Holly
wood. Being a star is exactly
what I've worked for, ever,
since I was a skinny, big-eyed
gangly kid in Amarillo,
Texas. I studied three years
at the Pasadena Playhouse,
and starved another three
after my graduation - into
unemployment.
Il feel very strongly about
this" Carolyn continued.
Hollywood has been very
good to me. If the others
don't want to stay here and
make a good living, then they
SHOULD go back to their cold

BY JAY CARMODY
Drama Editor Of The star


Possessed as 1t is Of a soul
that fairly reeks with human
charity, this corner hopes
that Samuel Goldwyn gets
his anticipated return on hts
seven million dollar 'Porgy
and Bess.'"
Nevertheless, 1t does regtet
that the sum ever was
mentioned. Why?
Well, because "Porgy and
Bess" is essentially a drama
Of poverty. It's every exciting
narrative element from IT'S
haunting, misshapen love
story through its alternating
moods Of dark violence and
sunlit hope. grow out of Q
slum setting called Catfish
Row.
Catfish Row Is a water
front ruin. a classic specimen
OF that time-wrought shabbi-
ness which its name suggests
but not In the movie Seven
million dollars and the
poverty implied in the name
Catfish Row are irreconcll-
able.
The mind that undertakes
to reconcile them simultan.
eously finds itself taurted by
the notion that a fraction Of
that sum would not only re-
claim Catfish Row but con-
vert 1t, say. into a Spring
Valley. Naturally, this sort
OF thought can only dilute the
drama so essentially implicit
IN George Gershwin's i'm
mortal "Porgy" music. And
in Dubose Hayward's inspired
story or which the music is
based.
Actors Cost, Too
In justice to Mr.. Goldwyn
and his picture, of course.
its setting does not repre-
sent the only element of this
"Porgy'S" 81 million produc-
ton costs. Uncounted other
items, including heavy talent
investments, figured in this.
The fact remains, however,
the the mention of money in
connection with film which
sings II Got Plenty O.
Nothin'" sends the perverse
eye looking for the ways in
which it was spent.
In the case of "Porgy" this
impulse is almost irresistible.
And, in its perverse way, it
is rewarding.
For one illustration, the
basic stake of this greatest
of folk operas is a water
front square. Save in the
scenes Immediately after the
famous hurricane in the
story this has the look of
having been swept, even
vacuumed, before each of Di-
rector Otto Preminger's
scenes. The observant movie
goer, say a foreigner unfa-
miliar with Hollywood's love
of the antiseptic, might we'll
conclude that this is a re-
quierment Of the Screen Ac-
tors Guild.
This obviously is an over
extravagant estimate Of the

seems, is heavily supported by the
prosperous sugar and pineapple
plantations there. This fact, to-
gether with the comparatively
small population, gives the new
state a whopping $.456 per capita
contribution.
Delawareans turned out with a
record total of S107, 900 during the
1858 Christmas Seal Sale. On a per
capita basis, this figures out to
23.6 cents, still the highest figure
for continental" United States.
Last year Delaware showed
Christmas Seal Sale returns of
$105, 500 for a per capita break
down of PAL cents.
Ranking third nationally behind
Hawaii and Delaware was Mime
sofa with 22.7 cents. Other leaders
were District of Columbia, fourth
with 21.7 cents; Illinois, exclu-
sive of Cook County, fifth with
1876 cents, and Iowa, sixth with
1910 cents.
Delaware's neighboring states of
Pennsylvania, Maryland and New
Jersey netted per capita returns
of 17.6. 1870 and 17.8 cents respec-
lively.
Delaware's total receipts in the
past Seal Sale represented an in
crease of 1.3 per cent over the 1857
total. OF the states and territories
reporting, les than so per cent
showed increases.
Commenting on the success of
the Christmas Seal Sale in Della
ware for so many years, DR.. Ger
aid A. Beatty, president of the
Delaware Anti-Tuberculosis Soci-
ETY., said.
1.-The Society appreciates the
generous financial support of the
campaign against tuberculosis by
the citizens of Delaware. The peo-
pie of our state have not only con-
tributed their monies but have
also participated in the Society's
program OF prevention and care.
