Boyer Is Not Taking The Rap
For “Arch Of Triumph” Flop
BY ERSKINE JOHNSON
NEA Staff Correspondent
HOILYWOOD — (NEA)—
Charles Boyer isn’t taking the
blame for the peculiar odor of a
$4,000,000 omelet known as “The
Arch of Triumph.”
The star has sniffed the surren
der-you-fool perfume of screen si
rens so often that he reacts with
all the snap of Lassie to one false
whifi from the chicken yard,
But there are no stains from the
eggs laid at the box office by
“Arch” on the hands that have lov
iuf,gly eupped the expensive faces
of so many movie queens,
“I won't take the rap,” he told

me on the set of “The First Le

“A Woman’s Vengeance.”
The Attar of “Whew,” Boyer
wants it known, came strictly from
the room where they stack the
greenbacks that 3
bu‘dgct ol go into high
‘Why,” protested the heart-flut
tere;, “should I tak’ the blam’ for
a picture that lost at the hox of
fice because it cost $3,000,000 too
much? It was the storee of two
people. The producers got it con
fused with ‘Ben Hur,’ I think.”
A lot of Hollywoodites, he con
fesses, gave him the look that
small boys who've been near
skunks generally get after the
picture was released.
“When you're associated with a
flop, it always hurts you in pic
tures, The sam’ thing was true
with Ingrid. She, too, suffaired
from it.”
NO REFLECTION -
As far as Boyer knows, nobody
tossed dripping tomatoes at his
enlarged screen image in the En
terprise smeller—“l got the best
notices of my career,” he said
proudly—and no studio chieftains
sketched skulls and cross-bones
after his" name on the roster of
Screen Actors Guild.
The Boyer telephone went right
on ringing. He beamed:
“I turned down more things
than evaire before.”
“The Arch of Triumph” was No.

sheet, carefully annotaed since he
swung from a big part with Jean
Harlow in “Red Headed Woman”
—4Then I could hardly speak 10
words of English”—to full five
pointed stardom.
Each time, Boyer generated the
kind of anger that could fry crepes
suzettes.
The first was when Fox put the
curling irons to his locks and gave
him Shirley Temple ringlets in a
picture with Loretta Young tagged
“Caravan.”
“The whol’ picture T was play
ing fiddles,” he said. “I packed. I
was ready to go back to Frahnce
for good.” ;
He still burns, but with a philo
sophical slow simmer, at the joke
sters who keep running “Come,
weeth me to de Casbah, ‘Edy,”
into the ground.
There’s a standing reward for
anybody who can find that line in
the sound track of any movie that
Boyer has made. He shuddered:
“Hedy liked it very much, it
was good for her, but my opinion

AT A DANGEROUS CORNER, Painter’s Crossroad, just
out of Philadelphia, Mrs. Roy Miller (right) and her
daughter, Mrs. Joseph Walton, run a filling station. So
many accidents occur at that corner—-300 crasnes in 12
yvears—that the screech of tires and crash of steel and
glass terrorized the women. They decided to act.
long ago.”
He admits, however, that he’s
mouthed the phrase on radio
shows, big pushover tha.t he is,
because of his friendship with a
few radio comedians and the
slunk-clunk of sponsors’ gold.
Tae Boyer arms describe a
searcn-me when he’s asked why
snipers insist that he could, if he
wanted to, speak Sir Laurence
Oliver’s brand of English and that
he fakes the pate de fois gras ac
cent just to slaughter women
moviegoers.
“I assure you,” he shrugged,
“that I do the best I can.”
STAYS IN BOUNDS
Right now Boyer is thrusting the
memory of pin curls, Casbah jokes
and his only movie flop behind
him. He doesn’ t even wince in
shoe stores when loose-talking
salesmen toss around gab about
fallen arches.
He'’s a warier Boyer. No scripts
with built-in falling plaster, thank
you, and no lover-boy roles that
ought to be played by Peter Law
ford or Roddy McDowell, either.
He says:
“Y wan’ to do the type of lov’
storee befitting a ma.. of my age.”
There’s a gorgeous new dish
named Barbara Rush in “The First
lLegion" but he doesn’t once beam
Athens, Ga.
THRE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
his voice into her chambered ears.
He plays a Jesuit priest in the
picture.
‘Whenever the still photographer
comes around, Boyer ducks away
from Barbara. He says he had
enough of the forbidden love stuff
as Marlene Dietrich’s eager play
thing in “The Garden of Allah,”
and he doesn’t want moviegoers
pausing before posters showing
him with Barbara and going
“Hmmmm.”
Bubbling on Boyer’s cinematic
stove now are a production of
Albert Camus’ “The Plague”’—the
author killed MGM’s plan to do it
with Spencer Tracy, and a screen
biography of Clemenceau, the
French statesman.
Boyer grinned:
“I can afford to lose a few more
hair in the picture. You see,
Clemenceau was completely bald.”
If skipper flies attack meat,
trim off and burn the infested
parts. The sound portions are still
good for use.
Community and county fairs,
spring rallies, achievement days,
farm forums, and camps are good
places for hgbb)' shows.

letting them know that we under=
stand why they are angry and we
love them just the same.
If we tell the child we only love
him when he’s good, we only bring
him into more trouble. All of us
need to feel that the family is the
place to be bad as well as to be
good. We can help the child to
talk about his angry feelings even
while we do not permit him to hit
or hurt us or others. And we can
redirect his anger through play—
in keeping with his age, his in
terest, and his handicap: for ex
ample, pounding and banging or
finger painting for the younger
child, or active play when possible
for the older child.
“Teachers and mneighbors, too,
need an understanding of the
normality of the child’s ‘letting off
steam’—so they will not make the
children or the parents feel guil=-
t)'.”
Parents, too, should feel free b 1
show thelr displeasure, she says,
and they must accept the fact that
their children hate them at times,
“No one can feel love all the
time,” adds Dr. Kehm. “If we
give fully of our love to our chil
dren most of the time, they can
‘take i’ when those situations
arise that fine us impatient or an
gry.” : i
Parents show their love to their
children by cuddling and playing’
with them as infants, she points
out, and by evincing interest in
the children and their activities‘
as they get older; by showing that
we take their opinions seriously
so that they are not afraid of be
ing themselves or of ridicule. s
“Love for the handicapped child 1
must be evidenced in exactly the
same way,” Dr. Kehm says, point
ing out the dangers of over-pro
tection ~n the part of parents. “It
will make aim feel more normal
if parents behave normally toward
him.”
Dr. Kehm says the emotional
needs of children—handicapped or
normal—are identical. |
“Family life education can make
a major contribution to parents of |
handicapped children — perhaps
greater than to parents of normal
children — through helping them |
understand how much their feel-!
ings and attitudes (conscious and |
unconscious) effect their children,”
