DOUG’S MOVIE
PLANSUNCERTAIN
.FAIRBANKS SAYS HE MAY
BE ONLY A PRODUCER
NEW YORK, May 1 (TP).—Doug
las Fairbanks senior says that his im
mediate plans call for work behind
the movie camera, rather than in
front of the lens.
Doug, with his new bride, the for
mer Lady Sylvia Ashley, arrived in
New York aboard the liner “Wash
ington,” on their way to Hollywood.
As scon as he reaches the film capi
tal, Fairbanks said, he intends to
start work on the production of a
film based on the life of the ancient
explorer, Marco Polo.
"I don’t think I’l appear in the pic
ture,” Fairbanks said. “As far as I
know, I’ll just be the producer.”
The erstwhile Lady Sylvia is all
set up over the prospects of seeing
Hollywood for the first time.
“It rhould be jolly,” she explained.
“I’ve n».ver sen California and from
what Douglas tells me, it must be
quite a place.”

As to your quest—n: “Can a deep
friendship between a couple 19 and
21 be called love?” Such a friendship
may not be love —the kind that
wives and husbands have for each
other—but it is the basis of such a
love and may grow into that. On the
other hand, of course, it may remain
merely friendsnip with none of the
passion that accompanies love.
