Najne You'd Like To Shake H er Continued from page twenty-four recently: "You must never forget those New England forefathers. Katy is New England. And all that that implies." While Margaret is Southern, and all that that implies. Katy is reserved, hard-shelled and honestly timid. So frightened at the thought of appearing before people socially that she trembles and frets until she tears off her evening gown and decides to go to bed rather than attend a party which she has already accepted. Or, if she does push herself out in public, she makes for the most dismal corner, hoping no one will see her. Yet, before the camera she throws off that New England, ancestral exterior, baked through many generations, and becomes almost over-emotional. Her one opportunity to forget all that New England has instilled in her! There Is Never a necessity for a publicity department to guard Katharine Hepburn's statements, for instance. She simply cannot talk to people. I have heard her stutter — hunting for something that might fill the gap between her New England reserve and an interviewer's questions. Her refusal to talk to reporters is not because she desires to be different but because she is different. When I asked her about her family, she cried, "They are mine!" with a passion that only a New Englander, trained never to show passion, could depict when that hard-shell had been momentarily broken. But Margaret Sullavan, with the hot blood of the impetuous South coursing madly through her veins, loves to talk. Adores it. Her words are so amazing that she remembers, frequently, and bubbles forth, "Oh, please don't print that, will you?" The first time that I talked with her I laughed most of the time and chuckled for two days afterwards. Let me give you a few of her sentences, chosen at random: "I didn't grow until I was nineteen (she's twenty-two, now). Thyroid. When I was nineteen, I sprouted. Came into my own. "When I enrolled in the Copley Theatre, E. E. Clive was the head of it. He said: 'My child, you'll never get anywhere with that Southern accent.' And my first lines on Broadway were: 'What you all doin' out theah?' "Oh, no, I have never told this same story to anyone. I always exaggerate or make up new angles. I would be too bored saying the same thing twice. "When I played in a small stock company, my family didn't even know it until I hit Norfolk, Virginia." Her eyes twinkled. "They came to see the play. My father sat and watched me as though I were undressed. My mother, nobly, holding him. "While we were making Only Yesterday, I kept begging for a day off. I never knew people could work so hard. I was willing to grant interviews. That's when all that stuff started about my copying Hepburn. I couldn't grant 'em. I was on the set from eight in the morning until midnight. They didn't seem to think — oh, well, I guess I shouldn't say that." She Dashed to Arizona to forget Hollywood. "I hate it. Don't know why, but I do. Everyone seems to think I'm something strange and they talk about me and want me to be somebody else and I can't. I've tried — " So she went fishing in Arizona. And returned three days later, with a black eye and a big torn spot on her cheek. She explained it: "I was fishing in a stream. The fish Were biting, too. The sinker flew back and hit me in the eye and the hook grabbed my cheek. I came back — " Most people didn't believe her. I do. That's just the way a fishing rod would treat Margaret Sullavan. She'd galvanize it into unprecedented action. The reporters hinted a man had administered that wound. But that wouldn't be unprecedented. So it couldn't happen to Margaret Sullavan. She got tired of telling the story and having it laughed at — by Hollywood. So 62 Gloria Swanson visited Carole Lombard on the set of We're Not Dressing. Gloria recently signed to do a talkie version of Elinor Glyn's Three Weeks HOLLYWOOD
