Three studies of Jeanne Cagney, leading lady in "The Time of Your Life." Above: Romantic companion to the moon. Center: Sophisticated maid with a braid. Below: Completely glamourous. Hairdo and clothes help build these impressions. These are your allies, too. Look the part you want to play in life. First impressions are often lasting. TWO vacations in Hollywood have proved dramatic periods in the life of Jeanne Cagney. The first, just after her graduation from Hunter College, New York, resulted in her role in "Yankee Doodle Dandy." A more recent trip brought her the role of Kitty in William Saroyan's Pulitzer and Drama Critics' Circle prize-winning play, "The Time Of Your Life," now being released through United Artists. Again, as in her first picture, she and brother, James, play together, after a lapse of seven years. It was just about seven years ago that I first interviewed Jeanne. We talked about this when I met her recently in the Stork Club in New York. Then Jeanne had had much to say about letters to the boys in uniform. Later, Jeanne gave generously of her time to entertain the boys in military hospitals, and to national causes. And that is like her, to give and give generously, whether on stage or screen or in everyday life. For there is a sincere, warm, ebullient quality about her. She is a girl of decision and action, very alert and wide-awake. Interviewing her is a pleasure because you feel like you are talking with an old friend. And so we chatted about clothes, her husband, Kim Spaulding, with whom she collaborates in radio work, the Early American furniture she is now collecting, her school days here in New York and her youthful aspiration to be a doctor. As we drank our coffee, I noticed that Jeanne had changed little, except that her hair was lighter, she was prettier, more of a young woman who had been about. She was very young when I first met her.
