Everyone knows that the bashful boy always drops the roses he is trying to present to a lady. Certainly, singing in public was not a terrifying new experience. Playing his own accompaniment, George was one of' the musical enthusiasms of the London Mayfair set, when — as a talented dilettante— he extended his flexible bass voice like a persuasive arm to caress feminine patrons of impeccable West End clubs. Even now, in highly congenial company and mellow mood, George is capable of turning into the barrack's room balladeer most likely to end on Broadway. His repertoire is extensive, his presentation lusty. The sessions do not take place, of course, in co-educational groups. George is romantic enough to hold the old view that ladies should be excused after dinner to exchange tatting patterns while the gentlemen indulge in wine, cigars and ribaldry. He has the true Englishman's conviction that his home is his castle and what occurs there his secret. During his early days in Hollywood he refused to describe his marital status, saying that it was the affair of no one whether Cupid's battle with him had resulted in misses or missus. He had reckoned without the long nose of the U.S. Government, which passed a law requiring employers to withhold a portion of each employee's salary check as down payment on income tax. The amount of that tax being determined by a man's domestic situation, George was forced to reveal, because of financial consideration, what he had held concealed against great social pressure: he was married at the time to Elsie Larson, graduate of Hollywood High School, an exceptionally beautiful, aspiring young actress. Friends of both George and Elsie arc agreed that life must not have been simple for Mrs. Sanders. Her liege lord, like the average American teenager, she was enamoured of his blue jeans, sneakers, and a blue work shirt with collar open and sleeves rolled up. His idea of the idyllic life was to don this costume around ten in the morning, take himself to his workshop and remain there until hunger chased him into the kitchen. It was during this period of his development that George built a rather elaborate telescope for transporting himself visually to distant planets. This was a task which challenged his mathematical ability (said to be oj genius -proportions) , possessed his time, and kept him cloistered from less lofty-domed fellow beings. He was averse to leaving the house for any reason at all, say nothing about trips to night clubs, picture premieres, or what are laughingly known in Hollywood as social events. Shunning social contact was undoubtedly another exhibition of his frustrated romantic nature. When he first came to Hollywood, it was with the idea that much of the world's beauty and wit were concentrated in the motion picture in dustry. This is true, but usually Beauty is lapping up ten hours of sleep in order to face the camera the next day, and Wit is prowling the haunts of desperate men in search of a fresh plot twist. The people whom George met socially were the hearty type, which is where you came in. About this time a national magazine sent an enterprising female reporter to the West Coast to interview the sphinx that throbbed like a man. It required lavish amounts of ingenuity and patience for the writer to locate Mr. Sanders, because he had taken refuge on a cabin cruiser tied up in a harbor sixty miles from Los Angeles. He was not cruising, merely cabin-ing. He was notified, via ship to shore telephone, that the lady would appear late one afternoon to ask him a few easily answered questions. He was implored to be articulate and gracious. When the interviewer stamped across the dock, Mr. Sanders remained supine on deck. He continued to vegetate while the lady shouted upward. When her tone had taken on the proper amount of acerbity, George lumbered to the rail, said, "How do you do," pinned on a brief smile, and added, "Do come up." The lady, equipped with bright brown eyes, glared at him. Indicating the rope ladder, her fourinch heels and pencil skirt, she demanded, "You mean you want me to climb that, wearing these? You're even crazier than I expected. You come down here on this wharf, and you come down this instant. You're going to take me somewhere and buy me a sandwich and some coffee. Do you hear me?" "Yes, ma'am," said Mr. Sanders. "But I don't want to." Over ham on rye, Mr. Sanders acknowledged the biographical fact that he was born of English parents in the Russian city known at that time as St. Petersburg. He learned to speak Russian as precisely as he speaks English, and he is able to toss off native quips in Spanish and French as well. Although he did not admit it in so many words, he indicated that during his formative years he had absorbed a certain Slavic melancholy along with the Muscovite conviction that women are an unlikely cross between a beast of burden and an houri. The Sanders reputation for being Hollywood's four-star Academy-award, anti-posterity woman-hater unquestionably started its phenomenal run as a result of this interview. He said that marriage was a subtle form of tyranny perfected through the ages by a dynasty of Jaels. (In case you don't recall your Biblical history, Jacl was the girl who got her man by -putting a tent stake through his temple) . He said that women had devoted themselves to perfecting and maintaining a legend that they are the mystic pawns of forces far greater than they themselves know; that the more deadly species liked to remind the world it is delicate, fragile, and highly intricate, full of mvs
