Ty Power OK's Shirt, But
Not Self For “Lydia Bailey”
By ERSKINE JOHNSON
NEA Staff Correspondent
HOLLYWOOD --(NEA)— The
Laugh™ Parade:
Suspension story of the week:
shortly after Tyrone Power
turned down the starring role in
Fox's “Lydia Bailey,” and was
taken off salary for the action, he
appeared .at .a Holly\_gvood party
with wifey, Linda Christian. «
Ty's spectacular British shirt, a
tucked, pleated and ruffled num
per, drew gasps from the other
guests. Among the goggle-eyed
was his studio boss, Darrly Zan
uck, who took one look at the shirt
and sent this note ‘to Ty by the
hostess: v
“May 1 have that shirt for ‘Lyd
ia Bailey.”?” i
Ty grinpned and rclayed his an
swer:
“You can have the shirt Mr.
zanuck, but not the body.”

A Hollywood screenwriter, sit
ting with Shelly Winters and a
party of actors at a night spot,
noticed Shelley raised -her orbs
with unabashed interest as a
handsome profile boy entered the
room.
“You go for him?”’ asked the
ccribe. - : .
There was a glint in. Shelley’s
eves as she answered: .
“Yeah. But I'm not going to do
anvthing about it. I'd only get
involved.. He’s SINGLE!”
Won't Over-Sell Actors
Dick Erdman tells it about Pro
ducer Brynie Foy and Director
Lew Seiler. ;
When Dick was called in for a
role in “The Tanks Are Coming.”
hoth men smiled happily and de
clared that he was exactly right.
Then their faces fell. They ex
plained to Dick that Jack L. War
ner had vetoed a number of actors
they had selected. Neither one of
them could understand why. The
actors were all tailor-made for the
joles.
“Perhaps,” mused Foy, “we are
over-selling the actors to Mr. War
ner.”
“Yes, that could ‘be,” agreed
Seiler.
“No more over-selling then,”
Foy said. “From now on, Lew,
just tell Mr. Warner that the actor
we have in mind is GREAT and
shut up!”
Y. Frank Freeman, the genial
head of Paramount, is a product
of Atlanta, Ga., and is steeped in
the traditions of the south despite
the vears he has spent north of
the Mason-Dixon line.
At a movietown dinner, an im
portant Republican dignitary ad
dressed a gathering of movie ex
ecutives. Freeman listened with
great interest until the speaker
touched upon the recall of General
Douglas MacArthur by President
Truman.
As the speaker intoned the line,
“MacArthur is the greatest gener
al in the history of our country.”
Freeman’s face clouded. &
Afterwards he made his way to
the guest of honor and said:
“I enjoyed your speech, sir, but
didn't you ever hear of General
Robert E. Lee?”

an expert at squelching hecklers,
Not long ago, another young
actor decided that young John

| “Ah, the great John Barrymore,
jr,” he taunted. “Should I bow
!when I come into the same room
with you?”
i John, wounded to the quick,
was speechless for a moment. Then
the wit that runs through the
Barrymore clan saved him and,
striking” a dramatic pose, he
floored his opponent with:

“COME ON, GET UP, you wanna makea money outta the service?”
By RICHARD KLEINER
NEA Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK—People are always
inventing things to make you get
up in the morning. First somebody
invented work. Then came the
alarm clock and now there's
something that is even more dia
bolic.
This masquerades under the
cheerful name of Western Union’s
Wake-Up service. It is as effec
tive at getting you up in the morn
ing as a bucket of cold water—
only more expensive.
f \}ou, youréelf, must place the
THE BANNER-HE{ALD, ATHENS, GEORGRA
order with the telegraph com
pany. This makes the scheme, in
the dull grey dawn, seem as ri
diculous as if you went around
socking yourself in the jaw.
Suppose you want to get up
some morning. Maybe your alarm
clock is busted or she's away for
the week-end. And you have an
important appointment you can't
afford to miss.
You call Western Union and
tell them you want to send your
self a wake-up telegram for, say,
seven in the morning. The only
cost is for a local telegram,
charged to your phone.
You go to sleep. Things are nice
and quiet and you're happily
dreaming about climbing up a
mountain made of roast beef when
suddenly there is a gravy land
slide and you don’t have a spoon,
You're frantically beating it down
the mountain when the phone
rings. z
It rings up to five times, unless
the operator is soft-hearted when
maybe she’ll ring an extra time
or two. You open a disgusted
eye, heave a disgusted yawn reach
out a disgusted hand and pick up
the phone.
“Whagraphoozit?” you say.
“This is Western Union,” says
a sweet voice, “The time is seven
o’clock.”
And that is that. You're on your
own now. Western Union has
done its duty. If you go back to
sleep, you've only got yourself to
blame.
* % »
Some customers of the service
know that they're probably going
to do just that. So they send them-~
selves more than one telegram.

himself five, scheduled for deliv-

A young man got a wake-up

Ocassionally, the operator de

A few hardy souls call before
