the
sane human being:
Q. What is your reaction to all the romance rumors built around you?
A. The same as any other annoyance. But you become immune to them after awhile. I'd hate to think I was as fickle as they make me look, or that the public believed all that hooey.
Q. What is your greatest economy?
A. Servicing my own car, doing my own gardening, raising all the vegetables for my family even before the Victory Garden days. I enjoy it.
Q. A.
Q. What early experience has most affected your philosophy?
A. I come from a place where people had money but didn't spend it as ostentatiously and as fast as they do in Hollywood. I've learned from my early experience in Montana not to be a spendthrift either with money or with time.
Q. Who are the five most beautiful women you've ever met?
A. Ingrid Bergman, Hedy Lamarr, Linda Darnell, Kay Williams, Rita Hayworth and a girl I knew in Great Falls, Montana, named Helen Ellis. Sorry I had to make it six, but not one of thein
And your greatest extravagance? Sending flowers to girls.
Q. Were you ever involved in a publicity romance?
A. No, but the papers sure make 'em sound like it. Just because I've liked a couple of girls who are big stars, there have been all kinds of versions of the supposed "publicity romances." I got tired of it and went out with a girl who wasn't in pictures, so what happens? Metro has jusf signed Kay Williams to a 7-year contract! She deserves it, but just let me catch anyone calling it a romance designed for publicity purposes!
Q. About what are you most careless? A. Dress. I dress for comfort, which means I'm always in blue jeans.
Q. What type of clothes do you like best on a woman?
A. Evening clothes. Women look so feminine in long, trailing frocks. Next best, I like 'em in bathing suits. Need I say more?
Q. What bad habit have you which annoys your friends?
A. Not showing up at parties.
Q. Which fault are you trying to conrect?
A. Being too early for appointments. I have a horror of keeping people waiting.
Q. What famous person would you like to meet?
A. I'd like to have met the late Floyd Gibbons. I think he was a great adventurer and a great reporter.
Q. Would you like to settle down, marry and have a family?
A. Definitely I want to marry and have kids. After all, I'm the youngest of 15 children, 13 of whom are alive, and I'm used to a crowd at home.
Q. On what occasions have you been a bum sport?
A. It all depends on what you consider a bum sport. Sometimes when you don't drink — and I don't — you're considered a bum sport.
Q. What qualities do you like best in a woman?
A. Femininity, sincerity and naturalness.
Q. What qualities do you dislike in a woman?
A. Selfishness and cattiness.
