Golden Peacock plwler 60 Don't Forget the Girls {Continued from page 20) \ HAD imagined a dance director to be a fluttery, "artistic" fellow given to tantrums and hysterical fits, — a sort of harem keeper who needed a kick in the pants. But believe me, I was more interested in Prinz than in the cuties he drilled! He is the kind of man a portable-whammer likes to run into. I began my soul-digging with him. He is a small man, but powerfully built, and my first impression of him was that of a happy-go-lucky football player, or perhaps of a cheer leader, whom everybody on the campus hails with a cheery "Hi ! " He carries a silver plate in his skull, and when he smiles, you notice his cracked jaw, acquired during his incredible adventures over the trenches in France, where he served as a hell-diver in the Lafayette Escadrille and Eddie Rickenbacker's "Hat-inthe-Ring" squadron. He has survived twenty-four crashes, and has been decorated with the French War Cross and six other medals. It's a far cry indeed from a legionnaire in Algeria, a balloon buster in France, a soldier of fortune in Latin American republics, going about his secret missions in stolen or borrowed planes, to a dance director in one of the major studios of Hollywood, teaching the secrets of leg-appeal to throngs of semi-nude chorines. He is very strong for the Hollywood crop of chorines, and believes they surpass the beauties of the Follies, the Vanities, or the Scandals, not only in pulchritude, but also in dancing ability. "Most of the New York show girls who flocked to Hollywood returned to Broadway in despair, so keen was the competition they met," said Prinz. "I gave tryouts to 800 girls for 'College Rhythm,' and of the 100 I selected only a few had had Broadway experience. "There are times when almost every registered dancer in Hollywood is employed, as it happened while we were filming 'College Rhythm,' and there are times when the lot of chorus girls is no better than that of the extras who are used only for atmospheric work. It all depends on the number of musicals being produced. But on the whole, chorus girls fare much better than other extras, and the easiest way to crash the studios is via the dancing route. "I am always on the lookout for girls who can qualify for my choruses. I like new faces. There are about 1,500 registered dancers in Hollywood available for studio work, but I do my picking from a selected 800. I have them all classified in my files as to looks, background, dancing specialty — whether tap, toe, acrobatic, ballet, etc. — and personality. "When I choose girls for a chorus ensemble, I look for personality first of all. God save me from the chorus girl who is beautiful but dumb. Naturally, it takes a smart girl to be a good dancer but if it so happened that the world's greatest dancer was a stupid person, she would be a total flop in pictures. It requires an alert mind to grasp and remember the intricate routines of modern screen work." So spoke the director. Now let me tell you about the girls themselves. For the past several days I have been interviewing many of the Hollywood chorines. I could fill this whole magazine with their stories, but have to be satisfied by giving a few typical cases.

She trotted in "College Rhythm," and will dance also in "The Big Broadcast" (tentative title) with Bing Crosby. She is 19, has smiling blue eyes and light brown hair, is five feet four inches tall, and weighs 112 pounds. But these physical measurements cannot give you an idea of her school-girl charm. That a girl of her experience should be so wholesome and unspoiled is one of the pleasant surprises I received during this investigation. Alma was born in Minnesota, the daughter of a Lutheran minister, and came to California when but a little girl. She is a graduate of the Fairfax High School in Hollywood, and lives with her mother and two sisters. As a dancer she makes just enough to live on, averaging about $100 a month. When not working in pictures, she dances in night clubs or in theaters along the coast. She is an expert in tap dancing, the hula hula, and the tango. Reading is her main hobby, and Edgar Allen Poe is her favorite author. "On the nights I don't go out," she said, "I like nothing better than reading an interesting book, having a package of cigarettes and an apple or some candy by my side." She smokes, drinks on occasion, loves ballroom dancing, and is an ardent football fan. She thinks chorines are in no way different from other girls. "Before I went into vaudeville," she said, "I thought dancing girls were a tough, hot-cha crowd. But I found most of them extremely decent. You would be surprised to know how many chorus girls go to church regularly." "What's your great ambition in life?" I asked her. "I first wanted to be a dancer. But there are so many dancers, that I'd rather be an actress. I believe I can, if given the opportunity. But what I'd like to do most of all, is to marry and settle down. Marriage, after all, is really the greatest career a girl can pursue." She prefers intellectual men, who are not jealous, and will trust her always. She likes caveman tactics. "I hate to be bowed down to and permitted to have my way all the time. I like rough treatment, provided it isn't abusive. My husband need not be rich, but he must be able to support me, and take me to Honolulu for our honeymoon trip. You see, I'm very romantic. Oh well," she exclaimed, checking herself, "what's the use of my raving like this? We chorus girls don't meet the kind of men we like, and the ones we like, turn out to be already married. To tell the truth, I don't believe I'll ever fall in love again. I did once, and it cured me. It's hell when the man doesn't love you as much as you love him. Love must be fully and absolutely mutual in order to give real happiness." There, you have the eternal feminine protest from the lips of this lovely chorine. 'TPHE Gold Diggers of 1935 are a *■ select group of show girls, and pack a lot of class and pulchritude in their numbers. Caryl Lincoln traces her family back directly to Abraham Lincoln. She was a Wampas Baby Star in 1929, and is considered to have the most beautiful legs in Hollywood. She is five feet five inches tall, has black hair and brown eyes, and weighs 120 pounds. Born in Oakland, she was educated in St. Mary's Convent in Portland, Ore. She quit pictures to marry, but it didn't prove a successful venture, and she is now staging a screen comeback.
