BELIEVE IT OR NOT—
T AY GARNETT carries a cane while directing a motion picture — as a protection against splinters!
Garneli never affected a megaphone, but for three years after he became a director he always provided himself with a stick after he came on the stage, solely fropi a nervous desire to have something in his hand. From continual tapping on the floor, he usually had his right hand filled with splinters. And then, a year ago, somebody took mercy on the director and gave him a bamboo cane, which he always carries when "on the set," but at no other lime.
Garneit is now directing "Okay, U.S.A.", the Universal newspaper drama which stars Lew Ayres as a broadcasting columnist, and also includes in its cast Maureen O'Sullivan, Walter Callelt, Allan Dinehart, Margret Lindsey, Emerson Treacy, Henry Armetta, Louis Calhern and other screen favorites.
FMIANCIS SAYS; ''You must eome over, and when you do. you will say, M am ylad you ashed, me."
EVERYONE engaged in motion picture production should see it/'
