(NEA Service Writer.)
NEW YORK.--An obscure show
girl of 17, with raven black hair
and moody Gaelic features, walk
ed Into the offices of a Broadway
theatrical agency looking for a
job—and walked out with a chal
lenge from beyond the grave. To
day she is preparing to take up
that challenge.
For in the course of an inter
view with the agent she had
bared a strange secret. She had
said that her gtage name of Dea
Lloyd had been assumed; that she
was actually Julie Eagels, and
that her mother was Jeanne
Eagels, whose brilliant stage ca
reer ended ,so tragically a few
years before.
Fully aware now of the con
fusion her statement has caused,
since theé existence of such a
daughter had ‘hever heen known
to the world, Julie says that, nev
erthelegs, she is glad she finally
“made the break.” She feels she
is now old enough to “carry on'’';
old enough to face doubters and
gkepties; old enough to face the
world+as her mother’s daughter
and to learn how much inherited
talent she possesses.
In a few days she will begin

further introduces the striking
Clark Gable as a romantic hero,

ing picture.
studying the role she will play in
her first picture, “For Hire,” the
work of one Irving Franklyn. She
is not to be introduced as Sadie
Thompson in “Rain,” the part
which brought international fame
to Jeanne Eagels.
She talked about her plans and
her past as she sat in one of
those typical side rooms of a
Broadway agency, where the faces
of hundreds of stars stare down
out of their frames. Thus she had
sat a few days before, talking with
Chamberlin Brown, the agent,
when her eye hada fallen on a large
and lovely portrait of Jeanne
Kagels.
“That is my mother,” she said,
simply. And the agent dll but
tumbled from his swivel chair.
Knew Jeanne As “Aunt”
“l did not wuse my mother's
name when I first came to New
York looking for a stage job,”
she began. “I wanted to wait. In
fact until this particular matter
came up, I had not considered
uging the name-—at least, not for
a time! It started in Detroit, I
had a chance at a job In town
with a musical show, but went on
the road later. You see, I could
dance and sing. Mother had at.
