THE CHURCH THAT CARES ABOUT YOU
Rita Hayworth still
ranks high as beauty
By NANCY ANDERSON
Copley News Service
HOLLYWOOD - The “Love
Goddess” sat in a booth of a
Beverly Hills drugstore
drinking coffee, black with
saccharine.
Rita Hayworth is reputed to
be shy and silent with the press,
and she sometimes is
monosyllabic whether she’s
shy or not. But three days
before she was to report for her
work in Mexico in “The Wrath
of God," a picture to co-star
Robert Mitchum, she bubbled
with good-humored con
versation.
In the 19405, Winthrop
Sargeant, writing a cover story
for Life magazine, called the
former Margarita Carmen
Cansino “The Love Goddess,”
and nobody argued. The girl
with the tawny hair and in
viting figure was accepted as
such all over the world.
Today at 52 (if a news story
which gave her age in 1957 was
accurate), Rita is no longer the
slinky, sexy, siren of “Gilda,”
but, on the other hand, she’s
still a superior dish. And,
besides, any woman with five
ex-husbands, including Aly
Khan and Orson Welles, a
daughter who is bona fide
princess, and more starring
roles in pictures to her credit
than even her fans can
remember, simply has to be
exceptional.
For her drugstore date and
interview, Rita wore a camel
tan midi-coat, a modest
amount of makeup, and no
jewelry except a plain, gold
ring like a wedding band.
Remembering that she and
Mitchum had worked together
in 1956 in "Fire Down Below,”
she said she was looking for
ward to their upcoming en
counter, because her co-star is
not only a good actor but an
interesting one.
“Mitchum plays a priest who
Youth revival
Youth revival services are
being held at 7:30 p.m. nightly
at the Meriwether Street
Church of God. They will run
through Feb. 6.
The evangelist is 19-year-old
Philip Whitley from Farmville,
N.C.
has — well, he’s rather — well,
he’s lost some of his faith, but
during the picture he gets it
back,” Rita recounted.
“Diere’s lots of action. It’s a
kind of mystic thing.
“I’m a woman who has —a
— hacienda.”
Smiles separated Rita’s
words.
She was originally Margarita
Carmen Cansino, the supple
daughter of a dancer and
dancing teacher, Eduardo
Cansino, who trained her to
become his dancing partner.
At 17, she married 40-year
old Ed Judson, her early-days
business manager, the first of
her five husbands and the only
one whose name wasn’t at
some time or another a
household word. Or almost a
household word.
She was signed to a Columbia
Pictures contract during the
colorful dictatorship of studio
boss, Harry Cohn. Yet Rita
credits persons other than Cohn
(almost anybody other than
Cohn) with her success.
“I’m not saying hard things
about the studio contract
system,” Rita exlained across
her blackcoffee," just about
that studio (Columbia); that
boss (Cohn). He was ex
ceptional. My situation there
was a unique kind of thing. I
had talent, and they didn’t
teach me anything.
“Harry Cohn thought of me
as one of the people he could
exploit and make a lot of
money. And I did make a lot of
money for him but not much for
me.”
Again a smile, Rita’s mar
velous smile, broke off con
versation.
“Yes, of course, I’ve had low
points in my life. All people
have low points. But I don’t
regret anything that I’ve done.
“George Cukor was really
responsible for my career.
When Cary Grant and

"WHAT NOW?”
Katharine Hepburn were
making ‘The Philadelphia
Story,’ I was tested to play the
younger sister, but I didn’t get
the part, because I was too
young.
“Still Cukor thought he had
found something in me, so he
made extensive tests and then
went to Cohn and told him that I
could be a star.
“He insisted that Harry send
me to a teacher for voice
placement lessons. The teacher
taught me French, because
that’s a very difficult language
which makes the tongue very
flexible.
“After George left Columbia,
the studio wouldn’t pay for my
lessons, so I paid for them
myself for a while. But I never
did learn to speak French.
“Later, when I was living in
Paris, I studied every day for
four months with a teacher
from the Sorbonne. At the end
of four months, I could say,
‘Bon jour.’
“Later Cukor borrowed me
for a small part in ‘Susan and
God.’ All I had to do was carry
a tennis racket, but I got to sit
on the set and watch artists
work. That was at MGM. At
Columbia, you couldn’t do that,
because they didn’t have one —
an artist, I mean. Well, they did
have one, but you weren’t
allowed to sit on the set and
watch.
“Someone else who helped
me was Fred Astaire. He came
to Columbia to make a picture,
and told Harry Cohn he needed
a dancer to be his partner.
“Cohn said, ‘We don’t have
one.’
“Astaire said, ‘Yes, you do.
Eduardo Cansino’s daughter. I
know her father’s work, and, if
she’s danced with him, she
must be all right.’
“So I danced with Fred
Astaire. I was terrified, but I
didn’t tell him. He was so nice
to me.”
