I Kute and Kool and Kalm {Contif'iUed from page 42) Writed," she said, as though something ;houId be offered in explanation. "My father was a lawyer and I grew up listening to the fine points of various law cases jiat he handled. When we left San Franb'sco to come down to Los Angeles to live, I enrolled in the law classes at high school just out of habit. "Sally Eilers and I went to school tojgether. We used to have a lot of fun. But I couldn't get over Sally's enthusiasm about the movies. For my part, I simply wasn't interested in the movies at all. "When I see all the pretty girls standing around the gate over here at Fox just dying to get in pictures, I realize what a lucky girl I've been. 1 never did a day's extra work in my life. One day I came over to the studio to see Frank work — " " Frank who? " The Test of Luck BORZAGE," she put in. "We had known him in Seattle. Well, Frank asked me to make a test and I did and then they offered me a contract. That's how I got in pictures." "Don't you think they're kinda exciting?" I asked meekly. "Oh, yes. I think pictures are a woman's game. I absolutely believe that. There's no other profession in which a girl can make so much money and have such nice things for herself, such as cars and clothes and flattery and attention. Hut the main reason I am glad I am in them is the happiness I can bring to other people." She indicated the large stack of fan mail on the floor. For that reason she prefers comedy to the darker and gloomier dramatic situations. "I would like very much to do the sort of comedy pictures Rebe Daniels makes. Just the peppy, athletic girl having a lot of fun out of life. And then maybe in about twenty years I could develop myself into the sort of thing Norma Talmadge does." I didn't know exactly what to say. So I lit a cigarette. Fhjpps by Request SALLY PHIPPS, of course, is a typical comedy name. .My real name is Byrncce Beutler but Mr. Shcchan re-named me Phipps when he signed the contract because it sounded more pert and llappery. \\ hen I go into drama, it will be a rather hard name to live down. Hut I think a name amounts to no more or less than the personality behind it. .\.'ary Pickford isn't a particularly |)retty name. Hut .Mary has made it stand for so much that we think it is lovely. That's what I want to do wilh my name. Make it stand for something." Anyway, Sally still has twenty years before she has to worry about the dramatic adaptability of her name. That is, if she stays in pictures that long. " I'm not worrying about them. Pictures haven't gctten into my blood so much that I couldn't give tliem up. I could fool 'cm and get married." Having seen Sally around winning dancing contests with several eligible young men, I asked if there was any immediate p<jssibility of that. She was just about to answer an emphatic no when some mysterious voice from nowhere yelled "Hi, Sally." Sally fxiked her head out the window. 1 here was no one in .sight. "I guess it was just one of the prop boys or assistants," she said, settling herself back on the lounge, "They all say 'hello' to me. I think that's the best way to get alom.'. To have cvcr\body love you." FREE—thii rtmariah'e ntw htlavj. O) k o€5 HoiiTL neci Sometimes the skin on a woman's neck looks either older . . or coarser . . or darker than her face.
