Continued from page fifteen Can Such A sensitive man escape love indefinitely? Can he keep his heart closed to true and lasting love — love such as his intense Latin nature is capable of giving and assimilating? How can he be so sure he will never succumb to that? "I have met some fine women," he replied, "and I haven't fallen yet. Probably I won't," he added, with a typical Raftian smile, "because I'm not a woman hater. I don't shut myself off from companionship and make up a lot of cynical tripe to prove to myself I don't like them. I start by admitting I do. There is a world of difference, though, between an occasional charming companion and a charming companion occasionally. The latter," he warned me solemnly, "too often leads to the altar." "You pronounce that just like it was a jail sentence," I said. "Well, the only difference is a letter or two. In one case you get a keeper — in the other you get to keep 'er." "Surely, you would want to keep her!" "Seriously, I must admit I would. My heritage rebels against taking marriage lightly. Divorce is tragic but a lifetime is awfully long. I'm satisfied now. Why should I take the chance? "T Know My attitude must sound funny 1 in this marriage-mad town," he volunteered. "The truth is, things I've seen here are partly responsible. Look around you! Marriages in Hollywood blossom in the afternoon and fold up like Arabs' tents before next morning. Hpnestly, I'm afraid of it." "Still, some marriages do last here," I reminded him. "If marriage meant more to me I wouldn't mind taking the chance — and making it work out, too," George said slowly. His eyes met mine evenly. Again I had the feeling that he has faced and analyzed himself as fearlessly as he has faced life. "I won't deny that I have thought a lot about marriage. But I have taken a good many things into consideration and I believe I'm best off as I am. "For instance, I am not awfully hard to get along with. There are times, though, when I really want to be alone. I don't want to feel that someone is wondering what I'm mad about or what's wrong with me. I like that same feeling of freedom about the way I can leave things any place I like in my apartment. If I want to go out on a date, I want to go without having to account for myself, and if I don't want to go out I don't want some woman looking at me and making me feel guilty just because she wants to go." Many thoughts lay smouldering behind his inscrutable brown eyes. I knew he has a son, by an early marriage, of whom he is passionately fond. Perhaps he did weigh many things when he came to his decision — and did not tell me all his reasons. I can not ever know for sure. All that I am certain of is, some woman will become a happy wife if George Raft ever weakens in his decision! HOLLYWOOD
